Mackay horse betting preview – February 9, 2021

Seven races will be run and won at Mackay on Tuesday afternoon. The track is currently a Good 4, and the rail is in the true position for the entire circumference of the course. Race 1 is set to jump at 1:34pm.


Best Bet: Brad

He’s one of our favourites and has been repaying his loyal punters for months now with five wins and as many placings in his last 10 starts. Brad was a winner at Townsville on Friday and is now on the four-day backup in a 1050m Open Handicap. The five-year-old gelding has won five times from nine starts at Mackay and has never missed the places at this track and distance. From barrier three, his trainer and jockey, Trinity Bannon, will go forward and look to box seat behind Our Boy Pendles, who only knows one way. Stablemate and clear danger I Did It Again still has no jockey nominated and was reported to have stone bruising over the weekend, so we expect to see him scratched in what would be a huge boost for Brad’s chances.

Next Best: Carlin Trend

Another horse who knows how to win is Ricky Vale’s Carlin Trend. This monster of a specimen is shooting for three straight wins, having broken his maiden tag at Rockhampton two back before going on with the job at this track and distance as an odds-on favourite. He rises in grade to Class 3 but keeps Ash Butler on board, which will be advantageous. Drawn on the outside of the eight-horse field, he is likely to be snagged back to last and improve throughout in a repeat of his win a fortnight ago. With even luck, he should win this.

Best Value: Finucane Missile

Clinton Taylor and Justin Stanley combine in the penultimate race with Finucane Missile over 1300m. The Smart Missile gelding ran a good fourth at Eagle Farm last start when coming from last to be defeated less than three lengths by Stylish Saga. Prior to that, he won well at Rockhampton in the same grade, which should see him stack up in this. He rises 4kg from his win two starts back but has drawn well in gate two and should get enough speed in the race to set it up for him. All Star Rocket looks the logical danger, but he went down as a $1.20 favourite last time out, so we are happy to take him on again.
