Daily Racing Tips – Saturday, February 15

Yorkshire is building an enviable record and will look to extend his winning streak to four.

The Snitzel gelding put the writing on the wall in his first campaign, saluting in three of his four starts and he’s continued to rise through the grades this preparation.

He relished getting out to 1500m for the first time at his latest outing and he looks well suited with the slight rise to the mile here.

With the allocation of the big weight, the team have elected to claim, securing Anna Roper to do the steering and take 3kgs off.

Joliestar returns to the races.The Zoustar mare was brilliant when resuming over this track and distance last campaign, taking out the Show Country Quality in emphatic style.

She looked to wanting further when contesting the Sheraco Stakes at her following outing and it was a similar story in The Everest as she was steaming home late.

A three-time winner over 1200m, all of those victories have been first up, and her two recent trials suggest she’s come back in top order.

Arqana was doing her best work late when resuming over 1400m here last month and she will have plenty of improvement from it.

Restrained back to last off the outside gate, she was along way off them and worked home strongly to finish just 2.1 lengths from the all-the-way winner.

With five weeks since that outing, she’s been given a solid trial to keep her up to the mark and she’ll relish getting out to the mile.

She does rise in grade but drops 5kgs and will get the services of Jamie Melham.

Sunshineinmypocket comes off a terrific first up effort over 1200m on the Sandown Lakeside.

Settling back at the rear, he charged home over the top of them to get the bob in right in the line.

The Ciaron Maher trained gelding made a flying start to his career, recording three straight wins and was sent for a well-earned break after suffering his first defeat with a luckless run in the Listed Bendigo Guineas.

He’s returned in top order and whilst he does step up in grade, he looks very progressive.

The rise to 1400m will suit and he gets in nicely at 55kgs with the claim for Jaylah Kennedy.
