Randwick racing tips

—

Race 1. (11:30) Midway BM72 (1100m)

#3 - Mal Coupe @ $5.00

BET NOW

Mal Coupe owns three wins and two placings this preparation, so there’s nothing wrong with that form.

The four-year-old comes off a win at Canterbury, and having form there is a good guide for racing at Randwick.

The $5 odds are worth including in picks, so take the value.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (12:05) Highway Handicap C3 (1000m)

#3 - Exit Free @ $3.50

BET NOW

Exit Free ran on well two back at Randwick before not getting the best of luck at Rosehill last time out.

The Danny Williams-trained gelding has yet to win in six attempts at the track, but he deserves a breakthrough victory.

We’re happy to give him another chance given the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (12:40) Petaluma BM78 (1200m)

#2 - Regimental Colours @ $4.00

BET NOW

Regimental Colours is already a three-time winner this preparation, including last time out at Randwick in a driving finish.

The Bjorn Baker-trained mare by All Too Hard has winning form on the track, so there isn’t much going against her on Saturday.

She has been rock-solid in betting markets, which adds to her appeal.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (13:15) Chandon BM72 (1400m)

#5 - Amreekiyah @ $2.30

BET NOW

A runner with a bright future is Amreekiyah, who won at Kembla Grange, Newcastle, and Canterbury.

The four-year-old mare by Justify got the better of a nice midweek type last time out, and she’s going from strength to strength.

After opening at $4, big bets have come her way, so take $2.30 before it firms.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 5. (13:50) Ranvet BM88 (1000m)

#6 - Bonita Queen @ $4.40

BET NOW

Bonita Queen is a proven fresh up performer, having won last preparation, and she could hit the ground running this time in.

The five-year-old mare by I Am Invincible owns four wins and six placings from 13 starts and getting in with 55.5kg is ideal.

Coming off a trial win is ideal, so punters should expect a strong effort.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (14:25) Tab BM78 (2400m)

#1 - Flamin’ Romans @ $9.00

BET NOW

Flamin’ Romans comes off a win at Caulfield, and he has always been a strong staying type, so he’s worth following.

The Ciaron Maher-trained six-year-old is good enough to win in Sydney, and it’s good to see Maher bring him to Sydney.

A wet track doesn’t hurt his chances, put him on top.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (15:00) Asahi Super Dry BM78 (1200m)

#2 - Kerguelen @ $3.10

BET NOW

We have backed Kerguelen in his last three starts without success, but we’re happy to stick with him.

The Joe Pride-trained gelding relishes wet tracks with five starts for three wins and two placings, so the wetter the better.

Getting $3.10 is a good price from bookmakers, so put him on top.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 8. (15:40) Darley Missile Stakes (1200m)

#1 - Private Eye @ $2.50

BET NOW

Class is with Private Eye, who wasn’t far behind War Machine last time out in the Stradbroke.

That’s an excellent form guide for this level of racing, and it’s why he’s the short favourite to win on Saturday.

Look for him to settle back and come with a big late run.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 9. (16:15) Precise Air Premier’s Cup Prelude (1800m)

#8 - St Lawrence @ $19.00

BET NOW

Running at value odds is St Lawrence, who is better for recent racing, and we’re happy to give the former Kiwi another chance.

The son of Redwood is bred to enjoy wet conditions, and he won his only start in heavy conditions, which bodes well.

Getting $19 is an excellent price, so include him in picks at the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 10. (16:55) Drinkwise Mile BM78 (1600m)

#3 - Puntin @ $5.00

BET NOW

Puntin needed to get to the outside part of the track last start, but he couldn’t get out there, so it could pay to overlook his first non-placing.

The four-year-old son of Super Seth owns four wins and three placings from eight starts, and he could lead throughout against this field.

Getting the inside draw is ideal, and if Ashley Morgan courses wide, he should put them away.

Stake: 2 Units
