Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 8 Journalists Share Posted July 8 What Muswellbrook Races Where Muswellbrook Race Club – Skellatar Park, 15 Racecourse Rd, Muswellbrook NSW 2333 When Tuesday, July 9, 2024 First Race 12:20pm AEST Visit Dabble NSW country racing returns to Muswellbrook on Tuesday afternoon, with a competitive eight-race program set for decision. The rail is out +7m between the 1280m to 300m markers, while the remainder is in the true position. The track is already rated a Soft 7 at the time of acceptances, and with more heavy rainfall forecast in the lead-up, punters can anticipate a downgrade into the Heavy range prior to the opening event at 12:20pm AEST. Muswellbrook Best Bet: Bullfighter After two eye-catching barrier trials, the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Bullfighter makes his debut. The son of Capitalist secured victory in his most recent piece of work at Randwick on June 14, making every post a winner to score by two lengths. Jean Van Overmeire should be able to dictate terms from barrier two, and provided Bullfighter can steal a cheap sectional in the middle stages, this guy will prove hard to chase down. Best Bet Race 2 – #3 Bullfighter (2) 2yo Colt | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Jean Van Overmeire (57kg) +200 with Neds Next Best at Muswellbrook: Lady Ichikawa Lady Ichikawa returns after a 267-day spell and looks prepared to strike first-up. She finished her last campaign with an impressive runner-up performance behind Genzano at Scone on October 16, careering down the centre of the course to get within 3.5 lengths. She was only asked for a minor effort in a recent jump-out, and although she may lack race-day fitness compared to some key rivals, Lady Ichikawa has the class to account for this lot and break her maiden status. Next Best Race 3 – #6 Lady Ichikawa (5) 4yo Mare | T: Sam Kavanagh | J: Jean Van Overmeire (57kg) +190 with PlayUp Best Value at Muswellbrook: Hawkwind Hawkwind returns after 199 days off the scene and brings strong credentials to this Class 1 contest. The daughter of Rubick didn’t miss the frame last preparation, culminating in her maiden victory at Wyong on December 23. She managed to make every post a winner on that occasion, and punters can expect similar front-running tactics first-up. Watch for Andrew Adkins to clear his rivals to get to the rail, and provided she doesn’t work too hard to get across, Hawkwind should give a bold sight at each-way odds with online bookmakers. Best Value Race 6 – #4 Hawkwind (6) 5yo Mare | T: Adam Duggan | J: Andrew Adkins (59kg) +1000 with Dabble Tuesday quaddie tips – Muswellbrook Races Muswellbrook quadrella selections Tuesday, July 9, 2024 5-9 2-4-8 5-7-10 1-2-3-7 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
