| Where | Hawkesbury Race Club – 1 Racecourse Rd, Clarendon NSW 2756 |
| When | Thursday, September 29, 2022 |
| First Race | 12:40pm AEST |
The Hawkesbury Race Club is set to host a bumper nine-race program on Thursday afternoon on a track rated a Heavy 8. Despite the rail being out 2m from the 1100-600m, 4m from the 600m-400m, 2m from the 400m to the winning post and true for the remainder, fancied runners will get their chances no matter where they settle in running as long – as they handle the heavy ground. Weather permitting, the day of racing gets underway at 12:40pm AEST.
Best Bet at Hawkesbury – Noble Attack
The Robert & Luke Price-trained Noble Attack has been a perennial bridesmaid at his last four starts, racking up four-straight runner-up efforts, but Thursday looks to be his day. The four-year-old gelding has been beaten a combined 1.6-lengths in those four starts and looks massively overdue to break his maiden tag. The son of Counterattack has a racing pattern which is hard to knock as he leads most fields up and continues to fight in the home straight. He has continually found one better in recent times, but the booking of Tommy Berry should be the difference in him gaining his first win. From barrier seven, Berry will have this guy lobbed on the bunny throughout and considering he is the only one to have run a drum at his last in this race, Noble Attack looks to be a clear best bet of the day.
Best Bet
Race 5 – 
#1 Noble Attack (7)
4yo Gelding | T: Robert & Luke Cerchi | J: Tommy Berry (59kg)
Next Best at Hawkesbury – Estilete
Last start Goulburn maiden winner Estilete from the Annabel Neasham yard looks to be incredibly hard to run down in the penultimate race of the day. The three-year-old filly smashed her rivals at her second start over 1300m, making up for an unlucky run in transit by subsequent Golden Rose Stakes placegetter Zou Tiger on debut. Alysha Collett sticks on board for this assignment and from barrier eight, should have no issue in having the Written Tycoon filly settled in front or close to the speed throughout. With a few or her main rivals resuming from spells, we are hoping her untapped ability and race fitness will hold Estilete in fine fiddle and prove too hard to gun down.
Next Best
Race 8 – 
#10 Estilete (8)
3yo Filly | T: Annabel Neasham | J: Alysha Collett (56kg)
Best Value at Hawkesbury – Edna
The Craig Carmody-trained Edna was defeated a lip at Wyong on August 16 when narrowly missing in a three way go when finishing third over 1100m. The four-year-old mare was in a bumping duel with the eventual winner from the 700m and appeared to have plenty of excuses in running, so she did well to be beaten by a narrow margin. The Stratum Star mare has two minor placings from four starts on rain-affected going and considering she will be up on speed throughout this 1300m event, she looks to be a great value play. From barrier four, look for Kathy O’Hara to lob this girl outside the leader once again and with a repeat effort of her last start, Edna will take some holding out at a nice price.
Best Value
Race 3 – 
#10 Edna (5)
4yo Mare | T: Craig Carmody | J: Kathy O’Hara (57kg)
