Just Mak placed last time out at Nhill and while its not the best form to draw upon, this looks like a fairly weak field. The horse is unbeaten over the track and distance at Strath so we are backing it in for a solid performance to start the day.
Race 1 tip: Just Mak to win at Sportsbet
Race 2 – Maiden (1112m)

Skid Lid is backing up after its solid debut run on December 20 and we think it can get its first win at the second time of asking. The horse is carrying a featherweight and we believe it will prove the difference.
Race 2 tip: Skid Lid to win at Ladbrokes
Race 3 – Maiden Plate (1212m)

Faith In Grace has been in great form since returning and it seems a win is just around the corner. From great draw on Wednesday and a generous handicap we think the three-year-old filly should be winning this race.
Race 3 tip: Faith In Grace to win at Ladbrokes
Race 4 – Class 1 Handicap (1362m)

Hilumiere is racing in great form and a win looms large here. The horse has finished second on back-to-back occasions and has never missed a placing at the Strath track. Wednesday presents the perfect opportunity to get its name back on the winner’s list.
Race 4 tip: Hilumiere to win at Sportsbet
Race 5 – Benchmark 64 (1212m)

We tipped Touch to win at a huge price last time out and we are backing it in to win again. The horse gets a great draw, and we expect it to go forward and be too hard to catch.
Race 5 tip: Touch to win at Ladbrokes
Race 6 – Benchmark 60 (1612m)

Duportron is ready to win after placing in back-to-back events. The horse returns to a distance where it has won at before and the son of Al Maher has placed third-up in the past. We are backing Duportron to get the job done in the penultimate event.
Race 6 tip: Duportron to win at Crownbet
Race 7 – Benchmark 60 (2062m)

Exalted Traveller should round out the card in a winning way. Last time out the horse placed second at Gawler in an improved performance and we are backing the runner to win on Wednesday.
