Swan Hill races preview & quaddie tips | Tuesday, October 3
| What | Swan Hill Races |
| Where | Swan Hill Jockey Club – 17 Gray St, Swan Hill VIC 3585 |
| When | Tuesday, October 3, 2023 |
| First Race | 1:30pm AEDT |
The Swan Hill Jockey Club is set to host an eight-race program on Tuesday afternoon, with big and competitive fields the theme of the day. The track is rated a Good 4, but with rain forecast throughout Tuesday morning, we expect to be racing on a soft track come race one. The rail sticks to the true position, with racing getting underway at 1:30pm AEDT.
Best Bet at Swan Hill – Dirty Grin
The Simon Zahra-trained Dirty Grin was nothing but consistent last campaign in arguably stiffer competition than this, and in a BM58 at Swan Hill, he should just be winning first-up. With a couple of nice Flemington jumpouts under his belt, Dirty Grin will bring a certain element of fitness into this. He’ll need a bit of luck from barrier 13, but with Harry Coffey on board, Dirty Grin looks a touch too good for this lot upon return.
Best Bet
Race 7 – 
#3 Dirty Grin (13)
4yo Gelding | T: Simon Zahra | J: Harry Coffey (60.5kg)
Next Best at Swan Hill – Watergate
Hailing from the Archie Alexander Barn, Watergate is hunting a third-straight win along with back-to-back successes at the Swan Hill 2400m. The five-year-old gelding managed to put 4.5 lengths on his rivals at Donald two runs back, then led throughout in a determined victory at Swan Hill on September 19. Jaylah Kennedy hops on board and claims 2kg, which keeps Watergate’s weight at 60.5kg in a similar race to last start. In a race where he should have an uncontested lead, this guy should prove too tough to catch once again.
Next Best
Race 5 – 
#1 Watergate (9)
5yo Gelding | T: Archie Alexander | J: Jaylah Kennedy (62.5kg)
Best Value at Swan Hill – Lonely One
The Heath Chalmers-trained Lonely One ran a massive race on debut when going around at cricket-score odds and finishing second. The run was at the Swan Hill 1200m, and now she returns to the track and trip in a race that is no harder for start number two. She looks to be a natural front-runner, and from barrier five, Madison Lloyd should have no issue dictating terms. With a majority of these being long-time maidens, Lonely One can salute at a nice price.
Best Value
Race 3 – 
#13 Lonely One (5)
3yo Filly | T: Heath Chalmers | J: Madison Lloyd (55kg)
