Randwick racing preview & betting tips | Saturday, December 9
| What | The Ingham Charity Raceday |
| Where | Royal Randwick Racecourse – Alison Rd, Randwick NSW 2031 |
| When | Saturday, December 9, 2023 |
| First Race | 12:20pm AEDT |
The Group 2 Ingham Stakes (1600m) headlines a massive 10-race program at Randwick this Saturday. The rail moves back to the true position and the track is rate a Good 4, so it should play fairly throughout the afternoon. The opening is set to get underway at 12:20pm local time.
Ingham Stakes Pick: Hinged
Hinged is yet to step out since finishing mid-field in the Group 1 Empire Rose Stakes (1600m) on November 4. The daughter of Worthy Cause was found to be lame in both offside legs in the washup, giving the five-year-old clear excuses after she travelled wide without cover throughout. The Empire Rose has produced four subsequent winners, and with Hinged trialling nicely since, she can add to that tally in the Ingham Stakes.

Best Bet At Randwick: Iowna Merc
Iowna Merc heads to Randwick with an unblemished second-up record and will seek to maintain that in the final race of the program. The son of Winning Rupert was tackled on the wire first-up at this course on November 7 when attempting to make every post a winner under Anna Roper. Rachel King regains the ride after an eye-catching barrier trial on November 20, and with King boasting a strong record on the four-year-old, expect her to get the most out of Iowna Merc.

Best Value at Randwick: Promitto
Promitto hasn’t won since February 2022, but his latest effort at Newcastle on November 18 suggests he is close to recapturing his best. The son of Divine Prophet ran into the smart Tavi Time on that occasion and was clearly the best of the beaten brigade, running second despite sitting close to last entering the home straight. Promitto needs to lug 61.5kg here, but if Zac Lloyd can hold a position from barrier six, watch for this guy to be powering home once again.
