Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays for major Australian TAB meetings on October 20.
Meetings across Australia are today held at Wyong, Nowra, Horsham, Seymour, Sunshine Coast and Bunbury.
HORSHAM: RACE 6 @ 4:10PM
Wetakemanhattan will lead the Cup field from the rail. WETAKEMANHATTAN (3) brings very strong figures and led and won the 78 comfortably first-up at Flemington at the mile. The extra 200m suits perfectly and he should have these covered making his own luck. ARTY LUCAS (4) won twice at Morphettville before missing heavily-backed in the Murtoa Cup. Back a bit in trip, but gets the blinkers back on and a bounce is likely on the 7-day return. BARRY THE BAPTIST (2) placed at Murtoa and will peak now. The popular galloper will race handy and is always a chance at this level. SELECTIONS: Wetakemanhattan looks too good.
As a FREE Racing and Sports offer below is the Computer Card for today's Horsham meeting.
Horsham Computer Card - October 20
WYONG: RACE 4 @ 3:10PM
Strong speed expected. GALAHAD'S QUEST (2) is impossible to knock. Reached new heights this campaign, winning all of his four starts. Graduates to provincial level but has the ability to win. Gets a perfect run from the draw and should go very close once again. JAZZLAND (3) resumes. Never runs poorly. Renowned over further but is too consistent to leave out. Blinkers go on and he should be fresh enough to give his backers something to shout for. BEAUFORT PARK (7) found the city slickers too rich last time out. Few gear changes and should be kept safe. CHARMED PRINCESS (1) for the multiples. SELECTIONS: Galahad's Quest gets the nod.
SUNSHINE COAST: RACE 4 @ 3:30PM (AEST)
Speculative how the large field settles. BEAUREGARD (7) has a tough run just missing first-up as favourite. Expect the extra trip to suit and he gets his chance. SAYS WHO (8) has to manage a wide gate but will present improved and won't have to improve much to make the finish. EVER SPRING (3) has good support resuming and will be better for the experience. Draws to advantage and quick improvement won't surprise. SIR PELLIAS (9) is capable at best and has trialled well for the return. He will push forward from the wide gate and is worth a look. SELECTIONS: Backing Beauregard.
NOWRA: RACE 7 @ 5:10PM (AEST)
Jewel Of The Crown and Georgina Gold can be prominent. JEWEL OF THE CROWN (8) hasn't raced since May when disappointed at Wyong. In the market both starts and trialling well so pay to keep safe. ALFSTAR (1) is also drawn wide but fitter for one run back and with the right run has a show. GEORGINA GOLD (7) is an improver. SELECTIONS: Jewel Of The Crown straight out.
