Hawkesbury Racing Tips for Thursday, June 4th 2026

We have expert betting tips for racing at Hawkesbury on Thursday, which includes eight races at the quality meeting.

Punters get good value odds for the New South Wales meeting, and we have betting tips for every race on the card.

Race 1. (12:00) HRC Motel Maiden (1800m)

#2 – Donatello @ $1.75

Donatello is having a lengthy first campaign, but the Chris Waller-trained gelding looks set to break through.

The three-year-old son of Reliable Man ran fifth at Randwick in BM72 grade last start, so dropping to maiden class and staying at 1800m helps.

We expect a top effort, so take the short odds.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 2. (12:35) Family Funday 19 July Maiden (1100m)

#6 – Rising Revolution @ $4.20

BET NOW

Rising Revolution had one start for third during her first preparation, and she could resume from a spell with a winning performance.

The three-year-old filly by Russian Revolution has been prepared with a soft trial effort, and she is being kept for race day.

She opened at $4.80, so there has been solid bets for her.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (13:10) De Bortoli Wines Maiden (1400m)

#1 – Jonson @ $3.20

BET NOW

Jonson is nearing a win after back-to-back placings this preparation, including a third placing at Newcastle last time out.

The four-year-old son of Jon Snow is bred to enjoy longer distances, but he’s running well over 1400m, and this isn’t a strong field.

Look for him to take advantage and give punters a good sight.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (13:50) XXXX Gold C1 (1500m)

#6 – Obsidian Dream @ $4.50

BET NOW

Obsidian Dram has been rock-solid in betting markets after opening at $4.40, and she should prove tough to beat.

The Joe Pride-trained filly comes off a win at Hawkesbury, so having winning form on the track only adds to her appeal.

Wet track conditions won’t worry her, so she is worth including in Hawkesbury picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (14:25) Davo’s Dash Maiden (1000m)

#2 – Lady Invictus @ $2.70

BET NOW

Money has come for Lady Invictus, which could give the Waterhouse/Bott stable a winner on the card.

The three-year-old filly ran at Sandown on debut in open company, and she should only be better for the experience.

Her recent trial win at Rosehill bodes well, so she goes on top.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (15:05) Pioneer Services C1 (1300m)

#2 – Sapling @ $2.00

BET NOW

Sapling has teased punters this season, but after two solid runs this preparation, she should show her best on Thursday.

The three-year-old filly by Anders comes off a fourth at Gosford behind some decent types, and there isn’t as much depth to this field.

$2 is getting short, but she is a solid multi bet inclusion.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 7. (15:40) Elite Sand & Soil BM64 (1100m)

#3 – Still Alice @ $5.50

BET NOW

Still Alice runs well fresh up with four starts for a win and two placings, and she could hit the ground running this preparation.

The five-year-old mare has prepared with two trials, and she doesn’t mind a bit of moisture in the surface, so conditions suit.

It’s an even field, so take the each-way odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (16:20) Clarendon Tavern BM64 (1800m)

#2 – Classic Deal @ $4.60

BET NOW

Classic Deal is fitter after two runs this campaign, including a fourth at Newcastle in heavy conditions last time out.

The seven-year-old mare has experience on her side, and although she’s only a three-time winner overall, it’s not a tough field.

She should be competitive with a good run.

Stake: 1 Unit
