Donald racing tips

—

Race 1. (13:30) Pacific Fuel Solutions Maiden (1000m)

#9 – Havana Moon @ $5.50

BET NOW

Each-way value is with Havana Moon, who looked good when winning a trial at Bendigo, and a winning debut is on the cards.

The four-year-old mare has been patiently handled, and that patience could pay off for connections following a comfortable trial win.

Money has come for her to win the opener, so include her in picks.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (14:00) Russ Studio Jewellers Maiden (1350m)

#13 – Neziha @ $1.75

BET NOW

Neziha runs at short odds following a tidy second placing on debut, and that form stacks up nicely in this race.

The three-year-old filly by Star Turn was only a nose behind the winner as a $15 chance, so punters will need to take shorter odds.

She’s in good hands with the Hayes stable.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 3. (14:30) Donald Steel Metaland Maiden (1350m)

#7 – Black Eyed Blonde @ $3.40

BET NOW

Black Eyed Blonde has three placings to her name this preparation, and a maiden win isn’t too far away.

She won’t get a better chance to exit maidens, and although she was disappointing when fifth at Pakenham, running at Donald should help.

If she gets cover from the draw, she could finish better than most.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (15:00) Michaels of Donald Maiden (1350m)

#6 – Sea Danger @ $11.00

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Sea Danger, who didn’t fire at Geelong fresh up, but that was the case last campaign as well.

The four-year-old son of Cliff’s Edge looked much better when recording back-to-back placings at Swan Hill, so we’re including him based on that form.

We’re happy with the double-figure odds offered by bookmakers.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (15:30) Mackays Family Jewellers Maiden (1620m)

#3 – I’llbethere @ $4.80

BET NOW

Looking to go one better than his last-start second placing is I’llbethere, who was under a length from the winner.

The four-year-old son of Reliable Man is in good hands with the Payne stable, and Will Gordon has been riding in good form.

Getting the inside draw only adds to his appeal at each-way odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (16:00) Donald Motor Lodge BM56 (1620m)

#6 – Jotopeli @ $6.00

BET NOW

Gunning for back-to-back wins at Donald is Jotopeli, who pulled out all the stops late when winning by a nose.

The four-year-old son of Foxwedge owns a win and four placings from nine starts, and he’s yet to run worse than third over the distance.

Having Dean Yendall riding helps, as he needs a strong ride.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:30) Goldacres BM56 (1000m)

#6 – Du Clisson @ $3.00

BET NOW

Du Clisson runs her best races fresh up with two starts for a win and a placing, and she could start with a bang.

The four-year-old mare by Pierata showed good speed when running second at Kyneton fresh up last prep before adding placings at Warrnambool and Cranbourne.

Barrier 15 isn’t ideal, but she has good tactical pace, which should take her close.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (17:00) Bet365 Bet Boost BM56 (1200m)

#6 – Flitgrove @ $12.00

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Flitgrove, who has shown pace fresh up, and she could come out running this preparation.

The four-year-old mare by Kobayashi last raced at Caulfield behind Xarpo in open company, so she will enjoy the softer field here.

She’s going under the radar, so snap up the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (17:35) Weirs IGA Donald BM56 (1350m)

#8 – Sugar and Sweet @ $8.50

BET NOW

He might be an eight-year-old, but Sugar and Sweet has enough upside to handle this field on Tuesday.

The son of Deep Field placed at Mortlake and Kyneton, and he owns a win and a placing from four attempts at Donald.

Getting 3kg off his back could be enough to get the chocolates.

Stake: 1 Unit
