Randwick racing tips
—
Denman Star has been disappointing at his last two starts, but he didn’t get all favours two back when getting blocked early.
The Angela Davies-trained gelding is a four-time winner, and despite carrying the top weight, he gets James McDonald riding.
Getting the inside draw could be enough to see him win.
Stake: 2 Units
Looking to remain unbeaten is Zumbo, who scored at Grafton on debut before winning again at Muswellbrook in heavy conditions.
The three-year-old filly by Zoustar has been primed with two good trial efforts, and she should get every chance in the run.
Take the each-way odds before late money comes for her.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Spirit of Wealth showed electric speed on debut when winning at Newcastle before being disqualified at Warwick Farm and then running last at Rosehill.
The four-year-old’s trial form since includes back-to-back wins, so she could be back to her best for Saturday’s race.
The odds are short, and considering she carries only 54kg, she is tough to hold out.
Stake: 3.5 Units
Having scored last week, Travolta eyes another win against a harder field, and there has been big money come for him.
The five-year-old son of Lope de Vega owns five wins from 13 starts, and at 53kg, he should be awfully tough to hold out.
They don’t often back up for Chris Waller, so he must be confident.
Stake: 2 Units
Lord Penman looked good when running second fresh up, and the former New Zealand runner is nearing a win.
He was good enough to run in the NZB Kiwi when racing as Penman, and his form will only improve under the training of Waller.
McDonald rides, so there aren’t many negatives.
Stake: 2 Units
Apocalyptic should have won on debut at Randwick when getting hammered in the straight, but she still finished second behind Gallo Nero.
Her trial form since has been only fair, but she wasn’t asked for much, and it’s good to see money come for her throughout the week.
Getting the inside draw could be enough to beat this field.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Everything points towards a win for Ceolwulf, having been a touch unlucky behind the best horse in Australia last time out.
The proven Group 1 winner meets a much easier field on Saturday, and we thought he would be an odds-on chance to win.
Take the $2.10 odds as an excellent multi bet inclusion.
Stake: 5 Units
Lady Shenandoah is one of the best thoroughbreds going around, boasting five wins and two placings from seven starts.
The four-year-old mare by Snitzel is unbeaten in three runs at the track, and despite drifting a touch in betting markets, punters should be confident.
She gets the inside draw, and it’s another big ride for McDonald.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Swiftfalcon was backed and beaten a few times last season, but we’re happy to give him another chance against this opposition.
The son of Exceedance has looked good at the trials to prepare for this run, and some of his best form comes early in his prep.
We’re happy to include him at the each-way odds.
Stake: 1 Unit
Punters get each-way odds for Dominetta, who is better than her form suggests, and we’re happy to give her another chance.
The Waterhouse/Bott-trained mare by Zoustar gets all favours off the inside draw, and that could be the place to be on Saturday.
Expect her to roll forward with Rachel King and be tough to hold out.
Stake: 1 Unit
