Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 21, 2023 Journalists Share Posted June 21, 2023 What Rockhampton Races Where Rockhampton Racecourse – Reaney St, North Rockhampton QLD 4701 When Friday, June 23, 2023 First Race 12:57pm AEST Visit Ladbrokes Racing heads to Rockhampton Racecourse this Friday afternoon for a competitive seven-race card kicking off at 12:57pm AEST. With no rain on the forecast for Thursday and Friday, we expect the current Good 4 tracks rating to hold, while the rail goes back into the true position. Best Bet at Rockhampton: Bright Tiara Life under the care of Jared Wehlow couldn’t have started off any better for Bright Tiara, who broke her maiden at Mackay over 1100m on May 27 as a heavily backed favourite. Ryan Wiggins took luck out of the equation for the daughter of Dissident by settling outside the leader, after which she kicked clear with 400m to go and stormed home to clinch a dominant 2.3-length victory. This filly rises slightly in grade to a 0-55 Handicap, but with Wiggins retaining the ride, she looks the one to beat. Best Bet Race 3 – #1 Bright Tiara (10) 3yo Filly | T: Jared Wehlow | J: Ryan Wiggins (57kg) Bet with Neds Next Best at Rockhampton: Honkytonk Diva Honkytonk Diva kicked off her career in the Clinton Taylor stable with a dominant win over 1300m at this track on June 2, defeating Street Glory by just under four lengths. This daughter of Under The Louvre has returned in good form this preparation, finishing fourth and second in her last two runs with her previous trainer. At the end of her last campaign, she raced in the Group 3 Vo Rogue Plate, where she was far from disgraced in finishing seventh – beaten by just under four lengths. Warwick Satherley has retained the ride, and if he can navigate a path from a wide barrier (11), Honkytonk Diva will be tough to beat. Next Best Race 7 – #3 Honkytonk Diva (11) 3yo Filly | T: Clinton Taylor | J: Warwick Satherley (57.5kg) Bet with Palmerbet Next Best Again at Rockhampton: Princess Tenko In the penultimate, Princess Tenko returns from a four-month spell to have her first run for Clinton Taylor. This daughter of Real Impact has been given one trial leading in, which she won over 900m easily under little to no riding. This five-year-old mare is yet to win first-up from three starts, but a new environment and the trial win should have her in good shape. If Tiffani Brooker can find the lead from barrier four, Princess Tenko should prove very hard to run down. Next Best Again Race 6 – #2 Better Rain (4) 5yo Mare | T: Tiffani Brooker | J: Clinton Taylor (54kg) Bet with Bet365 Sunday quaddie tips for Rcockhampton Rockhampton quadrella selections Friday, June 23, 2023 1-2-5 1-2-3-6 2-3-4-8 1-3-9 Investment: $144 for 100% More racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
