Randwick January 21st, Tips and Previews
Best Bet - Randwick Race 2
9
Crafty Eagle $2.70
Crafty Eagle looked talented, winning last start at Gosford.
The gelding by Starcraft has plenty of upside, and he should get a dream run from an inside gate.
The soft track is ideal, and I expect him to be too strong for his rivals late.
Dr Evil will be competitive from the plumb draw.
The addition of James Mcdonald is a positive, and I expect the gelding by Casino Prince to make his presence felt.
Lovetheinvasion can run well despite the double-figure quote.
She usually runs well second-up, and the 1600m is advantageous.
Next Best - Randwick Race 4
2
Logan Street Lion $4.00
Logan Street Lion is in-form and looks hard to beat here.
He was too good for them at Rosehill last start, and I expect the gelding by Tavistock to have this field covered.
He will get the run of the race from barrier one, and the Waller and Mcdonald combination looks unstoppable.
Helene Leadingstar can run well at a reasonable price.
He should peak third-up from a spell, and the 2000m looks ideal for this stage of his campaign.
Irish Legend can run well on the quick backup.
He is rock hard fit, and the soft conditions will suit.
Best Roughie - Randwick Race 5
2
Backrower $9.00/$2.60
Backrower looks poised to strike first-up from a spell.
He looks like a promising colt and has form around proven Group 1 gallopers.
His trials leading into this event will have him cherry ripe, and he looks excellent each-way value.
I expect him to jump positively, set the tempo, and give a good sight.
The undefeated Passeggiata will start favourite and is the one to beat.
She has a massive turn of foot, and I expect her to go through her grades in the coming months.
The tricky gate is a major concern.
Lavish Empire won well on debut at Canterbury.
If he can stay out of the speed battle early, he might be the one coming over the top of them late.

We pin our quaddie hopes and dreams on the talented Star Sparks in the third leg.
He does look like one of the better bets on the program, and he is undefeated second-up.
We have gone extremely wide in the remaining legs on what could be a wet and miserable day in old Sydney town!
