2/2/19 Free Horse Racing Tips for Saturday racing

Article-image

Best early plays from leading tipsters

 Steve Hart

Back to Rosehill and Caulfield we go this week, where we have some fantastic horses returning to work and some cracking match ups to look forward to.

At the time of writing, we are currently racing on a Soft 5 at Rosehill and a Good 4 at Caulfield.

In Sydney, expect the track to dry out on race day and with the rail out 3m, the on-pace horses will have a slight advantage over the shorter races. Over the longer trips however, everyone will have their chance.

It’ll be another hot one in Melbourne, with 35 degrees forecast for Saturday. 

With the rail out 9m at Caulfield, it will be very hard for anything to make up ground. We could be in for a repeat of last week at this track, when 6 of the 9 winners were up on-speed.

 

Free Racing tips from Matt Buckland

Below are my best two early plays for Rosehill and Caulfield.

My racing package which contains all of my Saturday selections, yielded 9% profit on turnover in January and you can access it here

 

Rosehill

Race 2 Tip #8 Lucicello $4.20

This Chris Waller trained filly by I Am Invincible looks like an absolute picture.

I’ve been very impressed with her trials, in particular her latest at Rosehill which was a standout.

She went to the line under a hold on that occasion and looked to have plenty in the tank. 

Very keen to see what she can do when they open her up.

 

Race 8 Tip #7 Nahuel $4.80

I’ve been following this gelding for a little while now.

He’s won his last two in nice fashion, which made it two victories from three starts this prep. His only blemish in this campaign came on a Heavy surface.  

I think he can make it three in-a-row here being fourth-up, hard fit and on his home track.

Trainer Richard Freedman will have him primed for a big run late.

 

Caulfield

Race 5 Tip #1 Bella Rosa $5

This very talented filly resumes here after she won well for us in her only start to date on Melbourne Cup day. 

She was very tough to the line in torrential conditions on that occassion and back on top of the ground here, I’m expecting her to go even better.

Mark Zahra staying aboard is a huge plus, and he'll no doubt give her every chance.

 

Race 9 Tip #2 Mantastic $14

Could be the smoky and looks to be paying huge overs.

He had a fantastic prep last time in and a cheeky first-up run here could be well on the cards, given he’s such a consistent performer. 

First-up last prep over this trip he missed by 0.2 lengths, so watch for him flying at them late.

If he’s anywhere near his best he will give this a mighty shake.

 

Free Racing tips from Ben Beare

I have picked out my best two first-up runners for this Saturday below.

If you'd like to see my entire set of selections for Saturday's racing however, you can access them here.

Rosehill Tip Race 1 #7 Mclaren $1.55

This two-year-old colt just oozes class and has come up short with the bookies, but it's easy to see why. 

In his first trial last October, he edged out Unite and Conquer who went on to blitz his first two career starts and earn a start in the 2yo Magic Millions event.

The Snowden yard opted to send Mclaren back to the paddock after that run however, to give him more time. 

The colt has since romped home in two recent trials, the latest by 6.8 lengths at Warwick Farm. 

The Snowden horses tend to race better than they trial and if that's the case here, this one could be smart.

 

Newcastle Tip Race 4 #1 Kosciusko N/A

With 5 trials under his belt, this four-year-old gelding from the Patrick Webster stable has stood out as a horse with an abundance of talent.

The son of All too Hard will have a good fitness base for his first start at the races.

Expect to see rider Travis Wolfgram jump positively from barrier 5 and take luck out of the equation.

I have been waiting a while to see this guy kick off his career and i'm confident he'll open up his account in style.
