Hawkesbury racing tips

Race 1. (12:20) TPG Greens Grade Maiden (1100m)

#2 – Hidden Motive @ $2.50

Hidden Motive didn’t let down as expected last start, but we’re happy to stick with the two-year-old colt by Capitalist.

He ran fourth on debut at Randwick before placing at Warwick Farm and Randwick, so that form checks out nicely at Hawkesbury.

Ashley Morgan is riding well, which adds to our confidence.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (12:55) Trefinti Provincial Maiden (1100m)

#3 – Justice Warrior @ $6.50

Justice Warrior looks to cap off consecutive second placings with a win, and although Queen’s Rhapsody will be tough to beat, punters get better odds with Justice Warrior.

He sat on the pace at Gosford before tiring late to finish second behind King’s Secret, which is a tidy enough form guide.

He’s a solid each-way chance, so watch for any late betting moves.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (13:35) DLF Turf Front Runners Maiden (1100m)

#5 – Apollo Ridge @ $4.20

Apollo Ridge owns three placings from five starts, including a tough second placing at Wyong last time out.

The three-year-old son of Lonhro was only a short margin behind Tiberius, and he doesn’t need to improve much to beat this field.

It’s an even field, and the each-way odds are generous.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (14:10) Envu Dedicate Forte Maiden (1300m)

#4 – Marais @ $3.20

Marais is one of the better maiden runners at the midweek level, owning nine placing from 11 starts.

The three-year-old son of Capitalist has been knocking on the door since his first run, and he ran at $1.50 odds last time out, so $3.20 is a value price.

Getting the inside draw is ideal, so expect the odds to firm.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 5. (14:50) Quali-Pro Marvel Midway BM64 (1600m)

#4 – Caltsar @ $2.25

Caltsar couldn’t have been more impressive on debut when winning by 1.5 lengths as a $1.24 chance.

The three-year-old son of Calyx runs at better odds this time around, and they often take good improvement from the Nathan Doyle stable.

The odds have drifted after opening at $2, but that’s not a big concern.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 6. (15:25) Floratine Turf Products BM64 (1100m)

#2 – Don’t Forget Jack @ $3.60

Don’t Forget Jack started his career with consecutive wins, and although his recent form hasn’t been flash, the talent is there.

The three-year-old son of Headwater has been primed with a trial win at Wyong in heavy conditions, which adds to his appeal.

He could firm into favouritism, so take the available odds.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (16:05) Turfcare Australia BM64 (1100m)

#4 – Cordina @ $2.40

Cordina won well on debut at Kilmore before posting consecutive placings at Canterbury, and that’s a good form guide for racing at Canterbury.

The three-year-old daughter of I Am Invincible will only improve with racing under her belt, and we thought she would be around $1.80.

She’s worth including in horse racing multis at the odds.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 8. (16:40) The Mineral Magic Soilsmart C1 (2000m)

#3 – Due Calzini @ $10.00

Due Calzini is better than a one-win type, so we’re happy to stick with the three-year-old until he wins another race.

The son of D’argento wasn’t far away from the prize when running second at Wagga last start, and the odds are better than expected.

We like the way he hit the line, so that’s a good sign.

Stake: 1 Unit
