What Geelong Races
Where Geelong Racecourse – 99 Breakwater Rd, Breakwater, VIC, 3219
When Sunday, January 29, 2023
First Race 1:20pm AEDT

Visit Ladbrokes


We head down the highway on Sunday afternoon for an eight-race program at Geelong Racecourse. With warm weather expected across Melbourne and its surrounds, we expect a firm, but fair fair track for competitors on Sunday with the track expected to go from a Soft 5 to a Good 4 prior to race one.

We kick off the day of racing at 1:20pm AEDT, with the rail coming out 3m the entire circuit.

Best Bet at Geelong – Attrition

We’re getting even-money odds about dominant last start maiden winner Attrition who steps out in the penultimate race of the day at Geelong. This three-year-old colt could not have been any more impressive when winning at Sandown last time out when giving his rivals a start and a beating. The win showed he is possessed with above average talent and despite drawing barrier two on Sunday, simply looks too good for BM64 grade, with metropolitan racing surely on Mitch Freedman’s agenda. Look for Jarrod Fry to have this Churchill colt settled at the rear of the field and armed with an explosive turn of foot, we expect to see Attrition thundering home down the centre of the track and ultimately prove too classy for this lot.

Race 7 – Silk #10 Attrition (2)

Next Best at Geelong – Memphis Shadow

Tony & Jake Noonan are set to combine with three-year-old gelding Memphis Shadow in the second race and based on his performances so far, he looks a great bet. He finished third behind Attrition last time out at Sandown on January 11 and considering we like his chances later on the card, Memphis Shadow has to be respected in this maiden event. This American Pharoah gelding finished third on that day and in what looks to be a similar maiden, albeit without the class of Attrition, he looks a clear on top selection. From barrier 11, Jake Noonan will need a touch of luck early so he does not get trapped wide with no cover. If he can slot midfield with cover, he has shown in his two starts to date that he has a strong finishing burst and third-up, he should be reaching peak fitness.

Race 2 – Silk #8 Memphis Shadow (11)

Best Value at Geelong – Daicos

Fresh off a narrow defeat at Cranbourne on January 13, the Peter & Paul Snowden-trained Daicos looks to present great value at Geelong. The Capitalist colt settles close to the speed throughout but has continually found or two better in his four-start career to date. He draws out wide in barrier 11, but his early gate speed should offset that under Michael Dee. If he can slot in just behind the expected leaders American Liaison and Irish Crickets, he should gain a nice tow into the race. Daicos has plenty of upside and we expect him to salute at a nice price with online betting sites.

Best Value

Race 3 – Silk #4 Daicos (11)

3yo Colt | T: Peter & Paul Snowden | J: Michael Dee (58kg)
