Daily Racing Tips – Saturday, December 23

Randwick: Race 6 (3:25pm AEDT)
No. 8 Valiancy

Valiancy is third-up at Randwick today and ready to win.

Valiancy clearly needed her first run back this time when beating just one runner home in BM72 company on the Kensington course here at Randwick, but she worked home well for third behind the talented Legio Ten most recently.

Fitter third-up and slightly further out in trip this afternoon, I think she’ll be right in the finish again.

Randwick: Race 7 (4pm AEDT)
No. 3 Fox Fighter

Fox Fighter drops in class at Randwick this afternoon and appears primed to strike.

The Foxwedge gelding has improved with each of three runs back this time, and he was good through the line for fourth in the Starlight Stakes before backing up the following week in the Razor Sharp Handicap, beaten only a length.

He’s hard fit today and looks a bit of value at a double-figure price.

Eagle Farm: Race 8 (5:32pm AEDT)
No. 1 Spacewalk

The Falvelon Quality looms as another perfect race for classy sprinter Spacewalk.

Spacewalk hasn’t finished worse than second in four starts back from a break, winning the Group 2 Rising Fast Stakes on Derby Day before only just being denied in the Century Stakes five days later.

He has been freshened since that run and sent back to the trials, while the booking of Blake Shinn adds further confidence.

Eagle Farm: Race 10 (6:52pm AEDT)
No. 1 Go Wandji

Go Wandji rarely returns a poor effort, and he looks ready to win third-up at Eagle Farm today.

The Wandjina gelding has won eight of fourteen career starts so far, placing on every other occasion and finding form around plenty of quality Saturday metro grade horses.

Having just missed in each of his first two back this time, this looks his chance getting out to the 1400m.
