Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 7 hours ago Journalists Posted 7 hours ago What Geelong Races Where Geelong Racecourse – 99 Breakwater Rd, Breakwater VIC 3219 When Friday, September 12, 2025 First Race 1:10pm AEST Visit Dabble Geelong Racecourse is set to host a competitive eight-race meeting this Friday afternoon on a track rated a Soft 5. Showers are forecast for race day, but it shouldn’t see the track downgrade further than the Soft 5 posted at the time of acceptances. The rail will be out 4m from 1700m to 800m and 6m for the remainder, with the first race jumping at 1:10pm AEST. Best Bet at Geelong: Bring Forth Progressive stayer Bring Forth has found his groove and strikes a BM66 (2440m) that sets up beautifully. He’s rock-hard fit, stays all day, and draws to park on speed without working from gate five. The Mick Price & Michael Kent (Jnr) yard rarely misses when they aim one at these provincial staying races, and the 1.5kg claim for Luke Cartwright keeps him nicely in at the weights. Tactically, he can control the race outside the leader, build from the 800m and break them with a sustained run. If the track plays fair, his staying strength should prove the difference late. Best Bet Race 5 – #2 Bring Forth (5) 5yo Gelding | T: Mick Price & Michael Kent (Jnr) | J: Luke Cartwright (a1.5) (62kg) Next Best at Geelong: Act Natural Phillip Stokes looks to have found the right maiden for Act Natural. He’s been ultra-consistent with a picket fence of seconds around him, and the race shape here looks perfect: genuine tempo from a few drawn wide should let Daniel Stackhouse slide across from gate nine, land one-off with cover, and produce at the 300m. His ratings are already good enough to win an average provincial maiden, and a Soft 5 shouldn’t blunt his turn of foot. With race fitness on side and a tidy map, Act Natural gets every chance to break through. Next Best Race 2 – #1 Act Natural (9) 4yo Gelding | T: Phillip Stokes | J: Daniel Stackhouse (59.5kg) Best Value at Geelong: Rubology At double-figure odds with horse racing bookmakers, Rubology appeals each-way in the penultimate event. He resumes off a stable switch with a strong fresh record and brings metro-benchmark form lines that read well against this lot. The map looks kind: from barrier 11 Craig Newitt can slide across to sit one-off just behind a hot tempo, then angle into clear air from the 400m. If the inside chops out late, that wider lane suits his style. Best Value Race 7 – #2 Rubology (11) 6yo Gelding | T: Peter Gelagotis | J: Craig Newitt (61kg) Friday quaddie tips for Geelong Geelong quadrella selections Friday, September 12, 2025 5-10-11 1-2 1-2-3-11 4-6-10-14 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote
