Randwick March 8th, Tips and Previews
Best Bet - Randwick Race 7
1
Broadsiding $1.70
Broadsiding returned to racing in fine style with a dominant victory in the Hobartville.
The big boy stalked the speed throughout, putting his rivals to the sword a long way from home.
The step out in trip is ideal, and he has been heavily supported since acceptances.
He meets a similar field here and is perfectly drawn in barrier four.
Risk at your own peril!
Swiftfalcon savaged the line from a different suburb first up.
The Exceedance gelding finished on the heels of Broadsiding, and the longer journey will play into his favour on Saturday.
He strips fitter after his recent outing, and he can cause a major upset if the short-priced favourite has an off-day or experiences traffic issues.

Wodeton $2.25
Wodeton is coming off a forgive run in the Silver Slipper.
The Wootton Bassett colt covered more ground than the early settlers, and it was a horror watch for those who took the prohibitable odds.
The one-time Golden Slipper favourite still managed to hit the line nicely after his torrid trip in transit, and I suspect he will take significant benefit as a result.
1200m will suit third-up, and I expect him to prove too classy late with even luck in-running.
North England resumes after a string of impressive barrier trials.
The Farnan colt turned heads during his debut campaign, and I suspect he is in for a fruitful and successful autumn preparation.
The awkward gate may decide his fate during the race’s early stages.

Encap $71.00/$12.00
Encap can run a drum at cricket-score odds.
The Capitalist gelding has looked bomb-proof at the trials and traditionally motors fresh.
He is drawn to get a soft trip in transit, and his efforts during the spring were first-class.
His triumph in the Theo Marks is still fresh in the memory bank, and his performance in the Ingham was noble.
Over the odds!
Magic Time was ultra-impressive fresh in the Expressway Stakes.
The Hellbent mare sprouted wings late, and she put away a very handy field in the process.
Her second-up record must be respected, and the current track conditions play into her favour.
1300m is a slight query.
QUADDIE
