Ladies Day Cup betting preview
The 1600m Listed Ladies Day Cup is the feature at Hawkesbury on Wednesday afternoon. This race was moved from last Thursday after the track was a washout. A strong field of 13 has been put together, headlined by Looks Like Elvis, Archedemus and Military Zone. It’s $6 the field, with seven horses between $6 and $10. Archedemus and Mushaireb look to lead, with Spencer and Quintesa in behind.
We are going to side with Looks Like Elvis after he comes through some good races, including the Epsom and The Spring Mile. Jarrod Austin had the six-year-old gelding accepted in a race at Flemington on Melbourne Cup Day but scratched to instead run here. Intent has been shown with the booking of Nash Rawiller, who will need to produce a pearler from barrier five. This horse has been racing very well without winning, but he should have the chops to pull this off.
Mantastic was the first horse beaten in the Rosehill Gold Cup last time out, but he really picked up late on the Heavy 9 track to run fourth. He typically doesn’t go any good on rain-affected tracks, but that effort suggested he should go alright here on Soft going. Glyn Schofield retains the ride, and the pair might be able to settle a bit closer from barrier two. He’s a genuine miler, but he does drop 400m since his last start.
Mushaireb will be one horse up on the speed, and he is likely to tough it out all the way to the line. Drawn out in barrier 10, Regan Bayliss will go forward on the seven-year-old son of Invincible Spirit and could prove hard to catch. He goes very well over a mile, and first up after two trials should see him ready to present as an each-way chance. His Queensland form last prep was solid, and he is a very consistent gelding.
