Mornington racing tips

—

Race 1. (13:30) Asset Painting Services Maiden (1000m)

#8 – Discreet Point @ $3.20

BET NOW

Money has come for Discreet Point, who finished fifth on debut at Ballarat, and there is improvement to come.

The Scott Cameron-trained colt loomed to win at the top of the straight before tiring late, but he’ll be better for the run under his belt.

Look for him to take cover from out wide and come late.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (14:00) Total Animal Supplies Maiden (1500m)

#12 – Team Heist @ $5.00

BET NOW

Paying each-way odds is Team Heist, who ran second at Bairnsdale before adding another placing at Sale two starts back.

She has had two starts at Mornington, including a last-start fifth, and having that experience should help her chances on Monday.

Money has come for her, so she’s worth backing.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (14:30) Race Replays Maiden (1200m)

#12 – Zoucat @ $4.20

BET NOW

Zoucat didn’t do much wrong when running fourth on debut at Newcastle in heavy conditions and coming to Victoria could help.

The Ciaron Maher-trained filly should appreciate the firmer conditions at Mornington, and there have been solid betting moves.

Look for him to settle handy and kick well.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (15:00) Mornington Civic Bowls Club BM58 (1000m)

#3 – Sun Setting @ $1.90

BET NOW

Looking to score consecutive wins is Sun Setting, who scored by just under a length at Moe.

The three-year-old daughter of Pierata has yet to finish worse than second, and both second placings came at Mornington.

She looks ready to make her mark at this track, so take the shorts.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 5. (15:30) Betavet BM70 (3000m)

#1 – Affluential @ $2.00

BET NOW

We’re happy with the $2 price for Affluential, who lost no admirers with a second placing behind The Cunning Fox over the jumps last start.

He won on the flat at Flemington prior to that, and that’s a much better form guide for this flat 3000m race.

62kg isn’t easy to carry, but his class should shine through.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 6. (16:00) The Big Screen Company BM58 (1200m)

#3 – Five Star King @ $8.50

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Five Star King, who looked good winning consecutive races earlier this preparation.

The four-year-old son of Toronado is a two-time winner over the distance and getting 2kg off his back should take him close.

Given the odds, he’s worth including in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:30) Magic Millions National Sale BM58 (1500m)

#1 – Williamstown @ $4.50

BET NOW

Williamstown has been lumped with 65.5kg, but he gets 3kg off his back with the apprentice claim, which should take him close.

The five-year-old is a four-time winner running in BM58 grade, so he’s the class runner of the field, and he’s unbeaten in three starts at Mornington.

Despite the weight, we’re happy to put him on top at the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit
