Tuncurry racing tips

Race 1. (12:39) Forster Bowling Club BM66 (2100m)

#3 – Casino Bear @ $4.20

Casino Bear was far too good for them at Grafton in heavy conditions last start, and a repeat of that performance could be on the cards.

The seven-year-old son of Casino Prince will need to be good to carry a big weight to victory, but we’re happy to back him.

The odds are shortening, so we’re not alone in our confidence.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (13:49) Choices Flooring Maiden (1200m)

#8 – Fierceness @ $3.30

Fierceness showed good speed when running third on debut at Kembla Grange before running fifth at Canterbury.

The three-year-old colt by Fierce Impact gets all favours from barrier three, and that could be enough to see him win.

It could pay to take the $3.30 odds available with bookmakers.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (14:24) South Pacific Palms Motel BM58 (1400m)

#11 – Trois @ $7.00

Nikki Pollock lines up Trois, who won on debut at Tamworth before posting back-to-back second placings at Port Macquarie and Moree.

The five-year-old mare by Outreach hasn’t done anything wrong throughout her career, and that could continue Friday.

She is worth including picks as another good each-way bet.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (14:59) Tuncurry Beach Bowling Maiden (1400m)

#11 – Breeders Sun @ $2.60

Breeders Sun will need luck from a wide barrier, but she’s likely to settle back from the draw and come with a big late run.

Being in the hands of John Sargent is a bonus, and he knows how to get three-year-old fillies to win races.

The $2.60 odds could shorten significantly on race day.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (15:34) Bellevue Hotel McQuillan Cup (1600m)

#8 – Great Idea @ $6.00

It’s an open race and Great Idea represents good value at $6, despite finishing eighth at Rosehill last time out.

That race had more depth to it, and he looked good when winning at Tamworth in two starts prior to that defeat.

Barrier 16 hurts, but he has enough ability to overcome it.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (16:14) L&B Glass Gold Cup (1600m)

#8 – Lugh @ $4.60

Lugh has made a good start to his career with four wins from seven starts, and he’s capable of taking out the feature race.

The five-year-old son of Snitzel is bred to be handy, and he wasn’t far away in a tough field at Randwick recently.

Take the each-way odds available.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (16:54) Broken Bay Pearls BM66 (1200m)

#1 – Hellova Nature @ $24.00

Punters get big odds for Hellova Nature, and rightfully so considering his form, but we’re giving him another chance.

The five-year-old showed good speed early when winning two races, and we’re hoping that form returns on Friday.

Given the odds, we’re taking the risk.

Stake: 1 Unit
