Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 13 Journalists Share Posted August 13 What Kensington Races Where Royal Randwick Racecourse – Alison Rd, Randwick NSW 2031 When Wednesday, August 14, 2024 First Race 1:25pm AEST Visit Dabble Metro racing returns to the Kensington circuit at Randwick on Wednesday afternoon, with a quickfire seven-race program scheduled to get underway at 1:25pm local time. The rail is in the true position for the entire circuit, and although the track was a Soft 6 at the time of acceptances, a wet forecast this week means that rating is likely to deteriorate into the Heavy range. Best Bet: Yorkshire After breaking his maiden in stylish fashion at Hawkesbury, Yorkshire was sent around as a well-supported commodity at Randwick on July 27. The son of Snitzel managed to secure a spot in the minor money despite copping a check with 100m left to travel, finishing within two lengths of Invader Zim in a competitive BM72 contest. The John O’Shea & Tom Charlton-trained gelding did a tremendous job on a bottomless track, and with similar conditions expected, watch for Yorkshire to give a bold sight if Jason Collett can get across from stall eight. Best Bet Race 3 – #8 Yorkshire (8) 4yo Gelding | T: John O’Shea & Tom Charlton | J: Jason Collett (55.5kg) Bet with Unibet Next Best: Influential Influential was narrowly defeated by a half-length at this course on July 31 and looks ready to peak stepping up to the 1800m for the first time. The four-year-old couldn’t quite hold out Sailor in a wide-open BM72 last start; however, the leading pair cleared out on the rest of the field, which suggests they could be worth following. This BM64 is a much easier assignment on paper, and Influential should prove too classy for this lot. Next Best Race 6 – #1 Influential (4) 4yo Gelding | T: Chris Waller | J: Benjamin Osmond (a3) (62.5kg) Bet with Bet365 Best Value: Aristonous The Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald-trained Aristonous returns after a 136-day spell and will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing campaign. The former French galloper could only manage two minor placings across seven starts in his second Australian preparation, culminating in a four-length defeat to Sea What I See at Flemington on March 30. This BM72 contest must be considered a significant drop in grade for the six-year-old, and with apprentice Zac Wadick taking 3kg off his back, Aristonous appears perfectly placed for a return to the winners’ enclosure. Best Value Race 5 – #2 Aristonous (4) 6yo Gelding | T: Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald | J: Zac Wadick (a3) (62.5kg) Bet with Neds Wednesday quaddie tips for Kensington races Randwick-Kensington quadrella selections Wednesday, August 14, 2024 1-6-7 1-2-8 1-2-5-8-12 1-3-6-7-9-10 | 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...
