Metro racing heads to Randwick on Saturday afternoon for an ultra-competitive 10-race program. The rail is out +3m the entire circuit, and although the track is currently rated a Soft 6 at the time of writing, we anticipate an upgrade into the Good range with conditions expected to improve leading into the weekend. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 12:30pm AEDT.

Best Bet at Randwick: Parkour

After making his debut at Ballarat on December 9, Parkour returns to Sydney. Although the son of Extreme Choice was defeat by 3.5 lengths, we were impressed with what we saw from the two-year-old. He swung into the home stretch from near-last when the whips were cracking and was able make a sustained run to the wire to finish runner-up. James Cummings elects to head back to Sydney with his colt, and with Jamie Kah happy to make the trip to keep the mount, we’re taking that as a strong guide that Parkour has plenty of ability.

Next Best at Randwick: Louisville

Louisville is testing the patience of punters after suffering defeat as favourite in his last two appearances. He’s been struggling to make up the ground over 1400m, and now with the son of Redwood finally stretching out to the 1600m, we’re convinced that this guy is ready to peak fourth-up into the campaign. Tommy Berry has the assignment to get cover from barrier eight, but if he does, watch for Louisville to be storming down the centre of the course.

Best Value at Randwick: Lady Of Luxury

After a luckless first-up effort, Lady Of Luxury represents terrific each-way value with top online bookmakers in this BM78 contest. She was bolting up towards the rear of the field at this course and distance on resumption but found nothing but backsides at a crucial stage. The six-year-old mare has a strong second-up profile, and with barrier one giving Adam Hyeronimus an opportunity to ride with more vigour at the jump, Lady Of Luxury could find herself in the box seat when the race goes on.
