Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 2, 2023 Journalists Share Posted October 2, 2023 What Kensington Races Where Royal Randwick Racecourse – Alison Rd, Randwick NSW 2031 When Wednesday, October 4, 2023 First Race 2pm AEDT Visit Dabble Metropolitan racing heads to Royal Randwick on Wednesday afternoon for a quickfire seven-race program on the Kensington circuit. The rail is out +5m for the meeting, and with mostly sunny skies forecast in the lead-up, it should be a Good 4 surface for the majority of the afternoon. The first race is set to get underway at 2pm AEDT. Best Bet: Princess Mary Princess Mary has had two starts for as many minor placings to her name and was unfortunate not to snag a win at Kembla Grange on April 26 before heading to the paddock. The daughter of Dissident was hampered badly in that run, and you can easily argue the protest should’ve been upheld. It wasn’t to be, but with two strong barrier trials under her belt, we think Princess Mary can bounce back at a nice price with the top online bookmakers. Best Bet Race 1 – #6 Princess Mary (4) 4yo Mare | T: Edward O’Rourke | J: Rachel King (57kg) +750 with Bet365 Next Best: Avebury Avebury has mixed her form since returning on August 2 with a disappointing effort at Randwick. The four-year-old then went back to the trials to get her mind back on the job, and it seemingly did the trick as the mare performed admirably at Warwick Farm on August 20. She was only beaten by a head on a track providing significant on-speed favours, and now with James McDonald booked to ride from barrier three, we think Avebury can go one better on Wednesday. Next Best Race 4 – #3 Avebury (3) 4yo Mare | T: John O’Shea | J: James McDonald (59kg) +200 with Betfair Next Best Again: Stromboli Stromboli was a terrific winner on resumption at the Kensington track on August 2 and subsequently measured up well in Saturday company behind Garza Blanca on September 2. Team Hawkes has been keeping the five-year-old fresh with a month between runs, and it seems to have unlocked the best of this gelding by Exceed And Excel. He draws to get a lovely run just in behind the speed, and with the claim of apprentice jockey Jett Stanley giving relief in the weights, we’re confident Stromboli can find career win number five. Next Best Again Race 5 – #6 Stromboli (3) 5yo Gelding | T: Michael, Wayne & John Hawkes | J: Jett Stanley (a3kg) (60.5kg) +110 with Neds Wednesday quaddie tips for Kensington races Randwick-Kensington quadrella selections Wednesday, October 4, 2023 1-3-4 1-5-6-9 3-5-7-10 2-3-4-5-9 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
