Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 8 Journalists Share Posted February 8 What Randwick Races Where Royal Randwick Racecourse – Alison Rd, Randwick NSW 2031 When Saturday, February 10, 2024 First Race 12:30pm AEDT Visit Dabble The $2 million Inglis Millennium (1100m) headlines a bumper 10-race program at Randwick this Saturday afternoon. The two-year-old feature should shed some light upon a fascinating contingent of gallopers putting their hand up for the Group 1 Golden Slipper (1200m) later in the season. The rail returns to the true position throughout the entire circuit for the meeting, and with no rain forecast to hinder proceedings, the track should be rated a Good 4 this weekend. The opening race is set to get underway at 12:30pm AEDT. Inglis Millennium Top Tip: Trunk There is no stable you’d rather trust with two-year-olds at the moment than the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott barn, seemingly turning out winners on a weekly basis. Trunk will be looking to continue that trend as he returns to Sydney after a solid debut performance at Geelong on January 6. The son of Snitzel attempted to make every post a winner on that occasion but ran into a smart one in the form of Stay Focused, who seems to be on a Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) path in Melbourne. His barrier trial at this course on January 22 was a suitable change of tactics to sit in behind the speed, and with a strong tempo here, we expect Trunk to be doing his best work late. Inglis Millennium Race 7 – #7 Trunk (5) 2yo Colt | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Tim Clark (56.5kg) +750 with Picklebet Eskimo Prince Stakes at Randwick: Caballus The Group 3 Eskimo Prince Stakes (1200m) is a wide-open affair, signified by the fact that all seven runners engaged are at single-figure odds. Caballus is the one that gets the nod after a terrific first-up performance for the Bjorn Baker stable. The I Am Invincible colt burst clear of his rivals at Rosehill on January 20, careering away with the prize by 1.2 lengths. Three subsequent winners have been produced from that form since, and with the change of stable seemingly unlocked the best of Caballus, we’re hopefully he can continue his winning ways in the 2024 Eskimo Prince. Eskimo Prince Stakes Race 6 – #4 Caballus (6) 3yo Colt | T: Bjorn Baker | J: Joshua Parr (57kg) +320 with Dabble Best Bet at Randwick: Marquess Two impressive barrier trials seem to have the lightly-raced Marquess returning in terrific order after a 112-day spell. He produced three wins across five starts in his last campaign, suggesting the son of Tavistock has plenty of upside moving forward, and the James Cummings barn seemingly agree with that assessment as they elect to kick-off the five-year-olds preparation over 1600m. Racing in open company allows Zac Lloyd to hop aboard on the minimum 52kg, and with gate three to help him on his way, we expect a bold showing by Marquess in the penultimate. Best Bet Race 9 – #7 Marquess (3) 5yo Gelding | T: James Cummings | J: Zac Lloyd (52kg) +190 with PlayUp Next Best at Randwick: Tintookie Tintookie has continued to be consistent since returning victorious at this course on January 6 and wasn’t far off making it back-to-back wins running into Our Kobison in consecutive starts. She clearly finished best of the rest at Rosehill on January 20, powering into a runner-up finish over the 1100m. She heads to the Randwick 1200m for the first time in the campaign, and with this seemingly an ideal setup to for this progressive four-year-old mare, Tintookie looks a strong play in the final race of the afternoon. Next Best Race 10 – #3 Tintookie (5) 4yo Mare | T: Brad Widdup | J: Kerrin McEvoy (59.5kg) +230 with Neds Best Value at Randwick: Embassy Embassy appears ready to produce a strong debut performance on the back of two eye-catching jump-outs – particularly his latest effort at Hawkesbury on February 1. The son of I Am Invincible was allowed to stride forward under his own steam under Tommy Berry and bounded away from his rivals to score by 3.5 lengths. It was an impressive piece of work, and with plenty of chances across this two-year-old contest, we’re willing to take the risk on Embassy running a bold race at each-way odds with online bookmakers. Best Value Race 2 – #2 Embassy (8) 2yo Colt | T: Peter & Paul Snowden | J: Tommy Berry (56kg) +1100 with Bet365 Saturday quaddie tips for Randwick Randwick quadrella selections Saturday, February 10, 2024 1-2-4-7-9-12 2-3-5-7-8 4-7-8 3-9 | 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...
