Form analyst, RIC CHAPMAN, looks at today’s race meetings and singles out his top three horse racing tips from Wagga and Dubbo this afternoon.
Love horses on their home track and this bloke ALASKAN AURA is at home today. He loves to get back and run on and this track absolutely rewards those who race like that. He has won twice this time up over this trip. Is in form and should be dashing late.
Tip: ALASKAN AURA
Wagga R6 – BM58 Heat of the Stayers 2000m
This will be a good race and holds a fair bit of appeal too. Up the top of the weights we have KITZBUHEL, a winner in England and is 2nd up from a spell here. Big weight but he carried big weights on soft tracks in England and ran well in his grade. He might just be way better than these. Did run a good 4th on Aussie debut over a mile last start. But I’m tipping against him. I really think this Mitch Beer stayer TULLAGHAN could develop into something pretty handy. From a Gr 1 mare, he has shown tremendous talent in weaker races. Last start maiden win was very encouraging. They do look the quinella.
Tip: TULLAGHAN
Wagga R9 – BM74 Hcp 1400m
I love the way this Canberra mare TEMOIN CHAUD races. She is very fit after 4 starts this time up, but she is a charge forward, take control of the field type of girl and she has fight down the running. Will certainly appreciate the fact she has only 55.5kg this start. Recent runs, including one at Kembla, she had to lump 60kg. Was a strong 3rd last start to a horse who is in a Gr 1 race this weekend. Should come across from this draw and lead. This is her favourite trip too. Love how tough MAD AS ZARIZ is too. Quinella them.
