Terang racing tips

—

Race 1. (13:00) Bet365 Top Finishes Maiden (1200m)

#2 – Clevor Trever @ $3.30

BET NOW

Clevor Trever ran well for second on debut at Kyneton, and he doesn’t need to improve too much on that effort to win here.

The three-year-old colt by Omaha Beach ran behind Millennium Blade, and that is a good form guide for this level of racing.

Take the odds before late money comes his way.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (13:30) Terang Co-Op Maiden (1200m)

#7 – Triple Salute @ $5.00

BET NOW

The three-year-old son of Justify comes off a tidy trial placing at Randwick, which is typically good form for racing at Terang.

The Waterhouse/Bott-trained gelding doesn’t meet an overly tough maiden field, so we’re surprised by the each-way odds available.

It could pay to snap up the odds whilst they’re available.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (14:00) Reichas Drapery Maiden (1200m)

#11 – Share the Stars @ $4.00

BET NOW

Share the Stars has been all around the mark in three career starts, including a fifth at Caulfield last time out.

The four-year-old mare by Overshare wasnt far behind some smart types, and she will be better with having the spell under her belt.

There has been solid betting support, which is a good sign.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 4. (14:30) Star Printing Maiden (1600m)

#9 – Illume @ $10.00

BET NOW

Looking to make a winning debut is Illume, who won a jumpout at Moe in good fashion.

The three-year-old son of Smart Missile will need a touch of luck from the wide draw, but he has time to find cover over the mile.

The odds make her a worthwhile play.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (15:00) W A Molan & Sons BM56 (1400m)

#16 – Shooter McGavin @ $3.20

BET NOW

Consistent form is with Shooter McGavin, who got too far back at Terang last start, so it could pay to overlook that effort.

The Shane Jackson-trained gelding owns four wins and nine placings overall, and he has been threatening to win a race this campaign.

62kg makes it harder, but class takes him close.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 6. (15:30) Kevin Smith Memorial BM56 (1400m)

#8 – Golden Age @ $6.50

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Golden Age, who is only a one-time winner, but he has been close to posting another.

The six-year-old son of I Am Invincible has four placings from his last five starts, and it’s good to see money come for him after opening at $11.

Barrier four is ideal, so take the odds available.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:00) Thornton Family Peter Blank BM78 (1125m)

#4 – Masked Marauder @ $4.20

BET NOW

Seeking his third win this preparation is Masked Marauder, who won at Donald two back before running fifth at Caulfield.

The five-year-old son of Toronado wasn’t far behind the winner, and although rising in class isn’t easy, he gets in with a light weight off the inside draw.

There isn’t much covering this field, so include him in horse racing selections.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (16:30) Bet365 Bet Boost BM56 (1850m)

#10 – Manhattan Mabs @ $5.50

BET NOW

The five-year-old mare comes off a win at Swan Hill, which should be a good form guide for this level of racing.

She dug deep to score by a nose on the line, and she will only improve with that run under her belt, so she could keep winning.

She is another each-way runner at Terang with a good chance to win.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (17:00) Terang Hotel After the Last BM56 (1600m)

#3 – Kingsford @ $3.30

BET NOW

Drawing wide isn’t ideal for Kingsford, but he has time to find a spot in the field, and a wide barrier didn’t matter when winning at Terang two back.

That’s a good form guide for this race and getting back to this track could be all he needs to recapture his best form.

After opening at $4.80, stacks of money has come for him to win, which is a good sign.

Stake: 1.5 Units
