Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 10, 2023 Journalists Share Posted October 10, 2023 What Kembla Grange Races Where Kembla Grange Racecourse – Princes Highway, Kembla Grange NSW 2526 When Thursday, October 12, 2023 First Race 1:15pm AEDT Visit Dabble Illawarra Turf Club is the destination for provincial racing this Thursday afternoon, with eight competitive races set for decision. The rail is out +8m between the 1100m-winning post with the remainder out +6m. The weather is a mixed bag as well, with some showers expected in the region; however, we’ll expect a surface no worse than in the Soft range for race-day. The first race is scheduled for 1:15pm AEDT. Best Bet at Kembla Grange: Joey D’or Joey D’or was unimpressive on debut at Rosehill on May 20 and finished 9.5 lengths away in last. It was surprising given his quality barrier trials prior to his debut; however, the son of Pariah clearly didn’t have his mind on the job for race day. He underwent the ultimate gear change now with a gelding operation and is now trialling like a fully furnished galloper. Joey D’or should get a lovely position in behind the speed from barrier three, and provided Rachel King can get clear aboard the three-year-old, he’ll be closing strong down the centre of the track. Best Bet Race 1 – #1 Joey D’or (3) 3yo Gelding | T: Bjorn Baker | J: Rachel King (59kg) Bet with BoomBet Next Best at Kembla Grange: Furious Furious is a very promising galloper from the Hawkes barn and after a magnificent debut win at Sandown on September 20, we’re confident the four-year-old can make it back-to-back wins. He showed an electric turn-of-foot to pick up his rivals with relative ease on that occasion and should only be suited for getting to 1400m for the first time. This is obviously tougher, and Zac Lloyd could have his work cut out from barrier 11, but we’re happy to take on trust that Furious has the ability to overcome these minor queries. Next Best Race 8 – #3 Furious (11) 4yo Gelding | T: Michael, Wayne & John Hawkes | J: Zac Lloyd (61kg) Bet with Bet365 Next Best Again at Kembla Grange: Zondee Zondee has found the minor money in four career starts so far and doesn’t look far from producing a winning performance. He finished mid-field four lengths away from Ostraka at his latest start at Rosehill on September 27 and should’ve finished closer than the unflattering margin may suggest. The colt by Snitzel raced wide without cover in the middle stages, blunting his acceleration when the race went on. He draws softer this time in barrier three, and with the appointment of Zac Lloyd as a positive, Zondee will go close here. Next Best Again Race 2 – #1 Zondee (3) 3yo Colt | T: Michael, Wayne & John Hawkes | J: Zac Lloyd (58.5kg) Bet with Betfair Thursday quaddie tips for Kembla Grange races Kembla Grange quadrella selections Thursday, October 12, 2023 2-3-6-10 4-5-6-7 4-5-7-9 1-3-4 | 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...
