Mornington racing preview & quaddie tips | October 10, 2023
| What | Mornington Races |
| Where | Mornington Racecourse – 320 Racecourse Rd, Mornington VIC 3931 |
| When | Tuesday, October 10, 2023 |
| First Race | 1:30pm AEDT |
A competitive eight-race program is set down for decision on Tuesday afternoon at Mornington Racecourse. A perfect spring day is forecast, and despite the track being rated a Soft 6 at the time of acceptances, we anticipate the track to border on a Good 4, with the rail out 3m the entire circuit. Racing from Mornington gets underway at 1:30pm AEDT.
Best Bet at Mornington: Warmonger
We liked what we saw on his debut from Warmonger, and with that raceday experience under his belt, he can break maiden ranks at start two. The War Decree gelding made a lot of mistakes but still lost by just over a length, which suggests he was worth following. From barrier nine, Damian Lane will have this bloke settled up on speed, and as long as his racing manners have improved, Warmonger should have enough in the kitbag to reign supreme.
Best Bet
Race 4 – 
#12 Warmonger (9)
3yo Gelding | T: Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr | J: Damian Lane (57kg)
Next Best at Mornington: Miss Moonshine
In the opening leg of the quaddie, the Cindy Alderson-trained Miss Moonshine will be looking to go one better than her narrow defeat at the Mornington 1500m on September 30. The El Roca mare went down by the barest of margins when leading the field up, only to be nabbed late. Despite being allotted 62.5kg, Logan Bates, claiming 4kg and getting her in with 58.5kg, has her weighted perfectly in this BM58, stepping back from a BM70. She will be in the leading division upon settling, and from there, Miss Moonshine should prove too good.
Next Best
Race 5 – 
#1 Miss Moonshine (3)
5yo Mare | T: Cindy Alderson | J: Logan Bates (a4) (62.5kg)
Best Value at Mornington: Let’s Go Letty
Hailing from the Peter Gelagotis barn, Let’s Go Letty is rock-hard fit, and recent runs suggest another win is close by. The five-year-old mare ran into one better at Moe two runs back before catching the eye late at Warrnambool when third on September 25. From barrier five under apprentice Tiani Chapman, the Sacred Falls mare will gain a perfect run in transit throughout. With the sit on a genuine speed over 1200m, look for Let’s Go Letty to be overpowering her rivals late.
Best Value
Race 7 – 
#14 Let’s Go Letty (5)
5yo Gelding | T: Peter Gelagotis | J: Tiani Champan (a3) (58.5kg)
