Rockhampton horse racing tips & form
—
Race 1. (13:25) XXXX Gold C2 Handicap (1050m)
#1 – Yarralinda – Bet @ Sportsbet
Yarralinda already owns two wins and a placing from four starts, so she should be the testing material in this race.
Her wins came at Rockhampton and Mackay, so owning winning form on this track bodes well. She scored by 1.5 lengths and she hasn’t done much wrong since.
Expect bookmakers to have her firm in markets.
Race 2. (14:00) Become A Club Member C2 (1300m)
#5 – Bold And Lucy – Bet @ Sportsbet
The three-year-old filly kicked off her career in fine style with a win at Rockhampton and she could remain unbeaten.
She scored by a half-length over Emilee’s Empire and she gets the inside draw for this contest, which could see her rail up and kick clear.
It could pay to follow betting moves with Bold And Lucy.
Race 3. (14:35) Callaghan Park Functions BM58 (1200m)
#6 – Sending Love – Bet @ Sportsbet
Sending Love was good enough to score back-to-back wins at Rockhampton before finishing fifth at Mackay last time out.
The four-year-old mare is unbeaten at this track and we wouldn’t be overlooking that form as she returns to this track.
Having Ryan Wiggins in the saddle helps and we are expecting another top effort.
Race 4. (15:09) Arcade Car Park Markets Maiden (1200m)
#1 – Back When – Bet @ Sportsbet
Back When has performed highly to date after recording consecutive placings at Eagle Farm and Sunshine Coast.
Form from the city stacks up well at Rockhampton and those two runs came behind the talented Poupee and I Am Swerving.
He could be the best bet on this midweek card.
Race 5. (15:44) Tab Maiden Handicap (1100m)
#5 – Champagne At Dawn – Bet @ Sportsbet
Value could be with Champagne At Dawn, which comes into this contest with four placings from her first five starts.
The four-year-old daughter of Dawn Approach finished second at Mackay last start and there is plenty to like about that form going forward.
Barrier three is ideal and we would be sticking with her.
Race 6. (16:19) Capricornia Yearling Sale Handicap (1050m)
#2 – Moreno – Bet @ Sportsbet
Class is with Moreno, which has rattled off four consecutive wins followed by a second placing this preparation.
The six-time winner was only a short-head behind the winner last start in the attempt at making it five on the bounce. However, he looks a good bet in this quality race.
He is having his first start at Rockhampton, but the long straight won’t worry him in the slightest.
Race 7. (16:54) RJC Memberships Online C3 Handicap (1050m)
#1 – Bold Hunter – Bet @ Sportsbet
Bold Hunter is a two-time winner from 12 starts and with seven placings, he rarely runs a bad race.
The son of Spirit of Boom scored by a half-length two starts ago at Rockhampton before finishing second at Sunshine Coast.
He was no match for the winner on that occasion but the inside draw suits and he still has plenty of upside.
Race 8. (17:32) Follow Us On Facebook C6 (1300m)
#2 – Disco Mo – Bet @ Sportsbet
Disco Mo has already won three races this campaign and the five-year-old is capable of adding another.
The son of Uncle Mo got the job done by two lengths two starts back and he followed it up with a steady second placing behind Mystery Element.
His best form comes at Rockhampton and we wouldn’t be jumping off his back.
Race 9. (18:07) Club 150 Payment Plans BM55 (1600m)
#13 – Malvagio – Bet @ Sportsbet
It is an open race and Malvagio should run at generous odds. The four-year-old is a two-time winner and eight-time placegetter, so he has the experience needed to win.
He wasn’t all that far away at Rockhampton last start and we are expecting form out of that race to hold up at this level.
Carrying a light weight helps and he has upside.
