Racing returns to Hawkesbury Race Club on Tuesday afternoon, with a competitive seven-part program set to start at 1:20pm AEST. The rail moves out +5m between the 1100m to 450m pole, while the remainder is in the true position. The track is rated a Heavy 8 at the time of acceptances, and with a clear forecast in the lead-up, participants could be racing on a Soft 7 surface come race-day morning.

Best Bet at Hawkesbury: Patissier

Patissier brings the right profile for a provincial Class 1: progressive, race-fit, and fresh off breaking the maiden in good style. The Proisir gelding has a neat tactical turn of foot and maps to park midfield with cover from barrier 9 before angling into the better ground late. While untried on heavy, he’s handled soft going and his action suggests he’ll cope with the ground. Zac Lloyd sticks, and this looks no deeper than his last-start win at Kembla Grange; if Patissier repeats that last 600m, he should put them away again.

Best Bet

Race 3 – #1 Patissier (9)

4yo Gelding | T: John O’Shea & Tom Charlton | J: Zac Lloyd (59kg)

Next Best at Hawkesbury: Sirius Legend

Sirius Legend has been knocking on the door and finds a winnable 1500m maiden. He’s produced two tidy runs since joining the Freedman yard and now draws to get the right smother before launching with Tommy Berry. His form on soft tracks reads well, and a recent Heavy 9 trial suggests he’ll get through the ground. With the likely tempo from several on-pace types, he can blend in from the draw and be strongest late. Stable placement looks spot-on to convert him to a winner at start four.

Next Best

Race 4 – #5 Sirius Legend (9)

4yo Horse | T: Anthony & Sam Freedman | J: Tommy Berry (59kg)

Best Value at Hawkesbury: Dalio

Dalio is the each-way play in the Midway. He’s rock-hard fit, draws gate 1 to camp right behind the speed, and crucially, he handles deep ground (4:0-1-2 on heavy; soft win at 1850m). His recent runs read better than they look on paper, finding the line in a strong Warwick Farm BM64 on Heavy 9 before another honest effort at Kembla. Up to 1800m suits, he drops into a race where many rivals have queries at trip or surface. With Deanne Panya to nurse him through the cut-up lanes, he’s value to salute in the closer.

Best Value

Race 7 – #7 Dalio (1)

5yo Gelding | T: Steve Englebrecht | J: Deanne Panya (57.5kg)
