Sunshine Coast Preview & Best Bets – 10/08/2024
Royal Randwick Preview & Best Bets – 10/08/2024
Missile Stakes Day at Royal Randwick kicks off the new racing season with the Group 2 $300,000 Darley Missile Stakes. This prestigious event sets the stage for 15 consecutive weeks of Group and Listed features in Sydney. With fine weather and a Soft 6 track, expect the exceptional from our top performers.
Best Bet: Hi Dubai
Race 6
Hi Dubai is a standout in Race 6. This four-year-old chestnut mare has shown us nothing but impressive form as of late. Trained by Ciaron Maher, she clinched victory at Randwick just two weeks ago. Over 1200m, her strong-finishing racing style and tenacity make her a formidable contender. With two career wins and an impressive 150% return on investment for backers, Hi Dubai is a solid bet.
Second Best Bet: Green Shadows
Race 7
Green Shadows looks set to continue his winning streak in Race 7. After a confidence-boosting victory in Midway grade against Dr Evil, he returns to metropolitan level in top form. Despite not being entirely comfortable on a wet track, his dominant performance under James McDonald puts him in a good position to place. Trained by G & S Ryan & Alexiou, this five-year-old chestnut gelding by Menari out of Notjustaprettyface has four wins in his career to date. We’re looking for number five this Saturday.
Best Value: Acappella Sun
Race 6
Acappella Sun offers value in Race 6, even more so if the pace proves fast. Trained by Matthew Dale, she put her finishing speed on full display in a recent 1200m race, coming from behind to finish strong. This five-year-old chestnut mare by Sebring Sun out of In Unison has shown us she can perform when the conditions are just right. Could Saturday see her take out a fourth career win? We’ll be watching closely.
