Hawkesbury Tips February 20
Elite Sand & Soil Maiden Handicap Tips (Race 3)
Hawkesbury Best Bet - Race 3 No. 1 Indecisive
He was gelded ahead of his second prep and although the three-year-old couldn't breakthrough in four outings earlier this season, Indecisive was competitive in stronger maidens than this.
The son of Brazen Beau was luckless first-up at Warwick Farm before running into Harlem Queen, a very talented filly who measured up in three Group 1 attempts over the spring.
The subsequent Canterbury form through Mergeila also reads well for a provincial maiden and following a quiet first trial, Indecisive completed a stronger workout at Kembla Grange on February 10.
The Lawn Shed Midway 3yo Maiden Handicap Tips (Race 4)
Hawkesbury Roughie - Race 4 No. 11 Empusa
Wal's Me Mate could prove too classy now back to provincial company third-up, however, the odds-on fav has had his chances of late and there isn't much standing out here otherwise.
Empusa could be the big improver on return in her second campaign, with the three-year-old on stable debut for Nathan Doyle after three failures earlier in the season for the Neasham & Archibald yard.
The daughter of Hellbent appeared much more settled in a trial win last month, where she travelled kindly under Ashley Morgan and her 1000m heat went nearly six lengths faster than other maiden trial.
Richmond Club F&M BM64 Handicap Tips (Race 6)
Hawkesbury Value Bet - Race 6 No. 5 Manhattan's
She should find this 1300m event easier, now back to a provincial BM64 after contesting a Saturday BM78 second-up at Randwick and she's been supported late in both summer appearances
While Manhattan's failed to beat a runner home in the most recent metro showing, she had no prior second-up victories to her name and the fresh effort at Newcastle was hard to miss.
After spotting them a big start via a 1200m BM68, Manhattan's got home nicely from the rear (fastest last 200m of the race) and she was scratched from a slightly stronger Newcastle race on Tuesday.
Polytrack Provincial-Midway Qualifier Tips (Race 7)
Hawkesbury Feature Bet - Race 7 No. 1 Roma Avenue
Given his first-up record, Roma Avenue is a double figure quote for Thursday's return assignment, however, both he's impressed with two trials wins ahead of this fresh assignment.
Also, with this being a qualifier for the $1 million Provincial Final at Randwick (first two home), he'll be more wound-up for this fresh outing and we've seen much stronger qualifiers in previous years.
Hawkesbury can be a horses for courses circuit and along with having a good record here (two wins and two seconds from four starts), Roma Avenue will also make his own luck on the speed.
Verdict
Our Hawkesbury tips for Thursday, February 20 are:
