Boxing Day Specials

Published: 26 Dec 2016

Merry Christmas to all Race Guide readers from the whole team! We hope you've enjoyed our horse profiles and analysis in 2016, here's hoping 2017 can be even bigger and better for all of us.

After plenty of food, drink and a couple of late nights the festive racing season continues with Boxing Day meets at Royal Randwick and Caulfield today. Black-type racing keeps the quality up and there are a number of good betting races on both cards.

Check out our specials below or the Race Guides here.

The Big Special "Invincible Sprint"

"The best is saved until last for the Analyst Team today, INVINCIBLE KNIGHT a talented horse that has been saved for a dry track at Randwick. He's got a dynamic finishing sprint and will be very hard to hold out if all is well in the yard."

Bet on INVINCIBLE KNIGHT now at $3.8

"Posi' on Panya"

"Deanne Panya is expected to fly along on ENCOSTANATI first-up today over 1,000 metres and that could leave a nice 'slipstream' run just behind her. TOP STRIKER and OUR RENAISSANCE seem the most likely to get it."

Bet on TOP STRIKER at $3.6 and OUR RENAISSANCE at $11

"Lucky Michelle"

"LUCKY LIBERTY gets a drop in weight, inside barrier, blinkers on and comes back to a distance he's never been beaten at. Michelle Payne is the jockey and she's the perfect rider to find the box seat and sneak him home at odds."

Bet on LUCKY LIBERTY now at $7.5

"Quick Track Quinella"

"There's plenty of question marks over most of the runners in the Summer Cup at Royal Randwick. AMOVATIO and RED EXCITMENT have never won over the distance, while DESTINY'S KISS and BEYOND THANKFUL prefer wet tracks. That leaves MALICE and CENTRE PIVOT as the key chances in the race. A good quinella."

"Darren's Race"

"The Lord Stakes at Caulfield is perfectly set-up for a Darren Weir winner as a result of the compressed weight scale. KENJORWOOD is back in form and MASTER OF ARTS is a big watch second-up. Most of the others are about 5kg or 6kg out of their grade."

Bet on KENJORWOOD at $2.65 and MASTER OF ARTS at $6.5
