Donald racing tips

Racing returns to Donald for the first time since August 1 with a nine-race card that offers some opportunities to build the bank before Feehan Stakes Day at Moonee Valley on Saturday. On a Soft 5 at time of writing with the hope of racing on a Good 4, expect to see some good mid week racing, and as always meetings like these might produce a genuine spring contender like we saw on Wednesday at Bendigo with Ocular.

Friday racing tips for Donald

Best Bet
Race 9 – Madam Mischief @ $2.60 Sportsbet

The Archie Alexander stable is flying. His mare Raffine saluted yesterday at Ballarat as our best bet, and now he saddles up our top pick in the last at Donald. Madam Mischief resumes from a five-month spell and has some history first up, as she was a dominant winner on debut at Ballarat on a Good 4. Her last race was a strong one where eventual Quezette Stakes winner Bella Nipotina was runner up. If the three-year-old can run to that standard first up, expect her to lead and prove far too good for this lot.

Next Best
Race 6 – Sunburnt @ $5 Sportsbet

Mick Price would have been happy to see this three-year-old filly take out her maiden victory last start at Tatura on heavy going. She gets back to firmer ground here at Donald and comes up against last-start synthetic winner Summer Lover (#8) from the Maher & Eustace stable. If Sunburnt can settle nicely like she did last start and roll forward into the lead, punters can expect her to be hard for the favourite to hold out here in the opening leg of the quaddie.

Best Value
Race 4 – Miss Mitzie @ $10/$3 EW Sportsbet

Nathan Hobson and Craig Newitt team up with this four-year-old mare, who was impressive on debut at Swan Hill when chasing home Warrowie Rose after getting the gun run in transit. Last start seems to be a complete forgive run when settling three deep up on speed when in the market. If ‘Froggy’ Newitt can get this mare one off the fence from barrier 10 and present in a handy position at the top of the straight, this looks like a nice each-way bet.
