Swan Hill Racing Tips for Friday, June 5th 2026

We have expert betting tips for racing at Swan Hill on Friday, which includes eight races at the quality meeting.

Punters get good value odds for the Victorian meeting, and we have betting tips for every race on the card.

Race 1. (12:25) Bet365 Bet Boost Maiden (1200m)

#5 – Menzies Creek @ $2.90

Menzies Creek looks to cap off consecutive placings with a win, and this isn’t an overly tough maiden field.

The three-year-old gelding by Soul Patch placed at Geelong before running second at Swan Hill as a $1.90 favourite, and punters should keep the faith.

The blinkers go on, so she should be focused and ready to fire.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (13:00) The Bottle O Swan Hill Maiden (1200m)

#10 – Pravaha @ $2.20

Money has come for Pravaha, who finished third at Seymour last time out, which is the best form guide for this race.

It was a good placing against a tough maiden field, and the three-year-old filly by Prague only needs luck from a wide barrier.

Take the odds before late money comes for the favourite.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (13:35) Footts Swan Hill Demolition Group Maiden (1200m)

#6 – Mag Max @ $11.00

Mag Max has improved steadily throughout her career, capping off with a fifth at Geelong last time out.

The four-year-old gelding by Magnus gets all favours with a 4kg claimer riding, and dropping in weight only helps his chances.

The $11 odds are good enough to include as a value bet.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (14:10) Jarrod Arentz Electrical & Solar Solutions BM66 (2400m)

#7 – Flash of Dallas @ $10.00

Ben Brisbourne lines up Flash of Dallas, who won at Echuca earlier this preparation before placing at Wodonga and running fourth at Geelong last start.

The five-year-old mare by Tavistock is a fit runner, and she has plenty of experience running over the staying distances.

At $10, she should be included in horse racing picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (14:45) Commercial Hotel Elvstroem Classic (1300m)

#4 – Magiconi @ $4.80

Magiconi looked good when running second on debut at Warrnambool, and he could go one better.

There was good betting support for the son of Nicconi on that occasion, and although beaten, he wasn’t disgraced.

We’re happy to keep backing him until he wins.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (15:20) Vernon's Steel BM78 (1200m)

#8 – Sea Poem @ $4.80

Punters get each-way odds for Sea Poem, who could make full use of the inside draw.

The four-year-old last raced at Flemington behind Egerton, and that form should hold up well for racing at Swan Hill.

She gets in with 54.5kg on her back, and that should take her close.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (15:55) Pooles Accountants Golden Topaz (1200m)

#12 – Cripps @ $5.00

Boasting four wins from nine starts is Cripps, who found the line nicely for third at Flemington last time out.

He is a nice type in the making, and he showed that when winning at Ballarat two starts ago by a whopping 6.5 lengths.

54kg on his back should see him run well at Swan Hill.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (16:30) Ultima Hotel BM70 (1600m)

#6 – Em Sixty @ $7.50

Punters get value odds for Em Sixty, who is better than what his three runs this preparation suggests.

The four-year-old son of Smart Missile won his only start at Swan Hill, and he’s unbeaten two starts over the mile.

He also loves the soft conditions, so he’s an excellent bet in the last race.

Stake: 2 Units
