Mildura racing tips
—
Punters get each-way odds for Il Cielo, who is threatening to win a race after posting four placings from seven starts.
The Ciaron Maher-trained ran third at Ballarat last time out, and that should be a good enough form guide to handle this race.
We’re happy with the odds available, so include him to win.
Stake: 2 Units
Looking to justify favouritism is Mrs Harris, who has two placings from four career starts, including a second placing at Warrnambool last start.
The three-year-old filly by Zoustar is a winner in the waiting, and there are no superstars in this field on Friday.
She should be too strong for this field, so back her confidently.
Stake: 4 Units
Ciaron Maher is having another monster season and Barari could kick things off with a win for the champion trainer.
The $22,000 purchase looked solid at the jumpouts where she wasn’t for much, and although she’s not royally bred, she’s good enough to beat this field.
Early money has come her way, which is a good sign.
Stake: 1 Unit
Cripps showed good ability during his first preparation, including a win at Geelong before placing at Echuca.
Something close to those efforts should be enough to beat this field, and it’s good to see the money come for him.
The $2.15 odds could firm, so take that offering.
Stake: 2 Units
Smoke ‘N’ Oakum turned his form around when winning at Echuca last time out, and we’re backing him to kick on with it.
The four-year-old son of Foxwedge owns two wins and five placings from 11 starts, so his overall record is better than most in this race.
Dropping in weight is ideal, so include him in picks at the each-way odds.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Dyer is a two-time winner from nine starts, and he wasn’t far away fresh up when fourth at Morphettville.
This race is slightly easier than that race, and punters should expect him to improve with that run under his belt.
The $3 odds are worth including in horse racing multis.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Punters get value odds for Favourite Child, who is struggling to win races, but she last raced at Caulfield in a stronger field.
The five-year-old mare showed good form in Adelaide before trying her hand at racing in Victoria, and it should be only a matter of time before she wins again.
She jumps with 54kg on her back, so that adds to her appeal.
Stake: 2 Units
Zambezi Khan is better for three runs this preparation, and she enjoys racing at Mildura.
The Payne-trained mare won her only start at Mildura, so getting back to this track could see her best form return.
Look for her to settle handy and kick at the top of the straight.
Stake: 2 Units
