Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 3 Journalists Share Posted February 3 What Dubbo Races Where Dubbo Turf Club – Merrilea Rd, Dubbo NSW 2830 When Monday, February 5, 2024 First Race 1:20pm AEDT Visit Dabble Country racing heads to Dubbo on Monday afternoon for a competitive eight-race program. The rail is out +3m between the 900m and 400m marker, while the remainder is in the true position. The scorching conditions are set to continue across the region, and with little to no rain predicted in the lead-up, we expect the track to be on the firm side of the Good range. The opening race is set to get underway at 1:20pm AEDT. Best Bet at Dubbo: Plonk The Rodney Northam barn will send Plonk to the races for the first time after a terrific barrier trial at Scone on January 21. The daughter of Adelaide couldn’t have been more impressive, bounding into a third-place finish in the jump-out when racing under her own steam through the wire. Chelsea Hillier got a feel for the three-year-old filly taking the reins in the trial, and with a useful 1.5kg claim on race-day, we’re confident Plonk can circle her rivals from the rear of field, making her debut a winning one. Best Bet Race 2 – #4 Plonk (7) 3yo Filly | T: Rodney Northam | J: Chelsea Hillier (a1.5kg) (56.5kg) -133.33 with Neds Next Best at Dubbo: Himorher Himorher returns to the races after a lengthy 246-day spell and although she’s winless in four career starts, she looks to be returning in supreme order. The now four-year-old caught the eye with a four-length barrier trial win at Muswellbrook on January 10 and we’re yet to see her reemergence since that piece of work. It suggests the Rodney Northam-trained galloper is ready to rock and roll for this event, and with barrier three giving Chelsea Hillier plenty of options, we’ll be looking for Himorher to be charging over the top late. Next Best Race 1 – #6 Himorher (3) 4yo Mare | T: Rodney Northam | J: Chelsea Hillier (a1.5kg) (57kg) +240 with Bet365 Best Value at Dubbo: Competition Trainer Cameron Crockett has four runners engaged in the fourth event on Monday and Competition looks to be the one over the odds with top horse racing bookmakers. The son of Shooting To Win has made steady improvements throughout the campaign and appears to be ready to peak third-up at the mile. His first two runs were over an unsuitable trip on tracks that were deteriorating, and his best form clearly comes when racing on top of the ground. He gets conditions in his favour on Monday, and although Grant Buckley will need to navigate a passage from barrier nine, Competition will be doing his best work late. The double-figure odds on offer here seem big for a horse that brings some quality highway form to the country. Best Value Race 4 – #3 Competition (9) 4yo Gelding | T: Cameron Crockett | J: Grant Buckley (58.5kg) +900 with Picklebet Monday quaddie tips for Dubbo races Dubbo quadrella selections Monday, February 5, 2024 3-4-5-10 2-4-5-7-10-12 1-2-6-7 4-5-7-8-11 | 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...
