Mornington Tips November 10
Sportsbet Race Previews Plate Tips (Race 1)
Mornington Best Bet - Race 1 No. 11 Kissattack
Kissattack has shown steady improvement with racing this preparation, and her latest third-place finish at Yarra Valley suggests a maiden victory may not be far away for the Danny O'Brien-trained mare.
The four-year-old daughter of Too Darn Hot drew wide and was ridden with restraint over 1968m at Yarra Valley, before working home strongly to finish within two lengths of the winner on a Soft 5 surface.
Although the form of that contest remains largely untested, her previous sixth-place finish at Kyneton has worked out well, with the third and fifth-place finishers both recording victories at their next appearances.
Damian Lane taking the ride is a significant positive, while barrier three should allow Kissattack to secure a more economical passage after jumping from a double-figure draw at her latest start.
O'Brien has enjoyed success at Mornington throughout 2026, and with the mare continuing to improve as she gains experience, the addition of a tongue tie for the first time could provide the finishing touch required to break through.

Mornington Next Best Bet - Race 4 No. 11 Sistine Tunnel
A drop in grade gives Sistine Tunnel a strong opportunity to return to winning form, with the Andrew Noblet-trained mare having produced several competitive performances against stronger opposition this preparation.
The daughter of Deep Field went particularly close on her penultimate appearance, finishing a narrow second over this track and distance in Benchmark 0-62 company after settling back and working home strongly.
More positive tactics were employed at Geelong subsequently, although that approach appeared less suitable for the six-year-old, who was sent out at $21 and failed to reproduce her previous performance in a Benchmark 62 assignment.
She has since been freshened, and her fourth-place finish at Swan Hill earlier this preparation provides another encouraging reference for a mare capable of being competitive at this level.
Barrier six gives Holly Durnan options in running, and with the mare returning to a more suitable grade and the 1200m distance at which she last won at Ballarat in October 2025, Sistine Tunnel looks well placed to register her third career victory.
Sportsbet Green Tick Handicap Tips (Race 7)
Mornington Roughie - Race 7 No. 3 Sensational Ruler
Sensational Ruler could make his presence felt at attractive odds, with the Richard Laming-trained gelding capable of reproducing the form that delivered a convincing victory at Kilmore earlier this preparation.
The son of Jungle Ruler resumed from a break of more than two months with a Benchmark 0-56 success in September, scoring by more than a length and showing he was capable of performing well fresh.
His two subsequent performances have been disappointing, including an eleventh-place finish at Wangaratta last month after drawing wide, although his earlier victory remains an encouraging reference.
Barrier ten again presents a challenge, but Brad Rawiller returns to the saddle after partnering him at his first two appearances this preparation, providing some familiarity for a runner looking to bounce back.
Laming's stable has been performing well in recent weeks, and with blinkers applied for the first time, Sensational Ruler looks capable of improving sharply on his latest efforts.
Sportsbet Same Race Multi Handicap Tips (Race 8)
Mornington Value Bet - Race 8 No. 8 Russian Benefits
A return to Mornington provides Russian Benefits with an opportunity to register her third career victory, with the Michael Mehegan-trained mare having recorded both previous wins at this circuit.
The six-year-old has finished fifth in both appearances this preparation, resuming over 1200m at Moe before returning to Mornington last start, where she was beaten just over 2.5 lengths.
There were excuses in both performances, with the mare encountering trouble in running, while her latest effort suggested the rise to 1500m should be manageable as she approaches peak fitness.
Her previous course victories provide an encouraging reference, particularly with the mare having demonstrated an ability to perform well against stronger opposition than she faces on Tuesday.
Barrier five should give Luke Cartwright the opportunity to secure a favourable passage, and with Russian Benefits having previously won in stronger company, she looks capable of making her presence felt at an attractive price.
