Murray Bridge Tips January 11


Fred Vella Tyre & Crash Repair Handicap Tips (Race 2) 


Murray Bridge Best Bet - Race 2 No. 5 Prairie Flower 

The mare won twice at Morphettville last prep with her two wins there sandwiching a good fifth in the Listed Matrice Stakes over 1200m at the same venue.

The pick’s form tailed off towards the back end of the season however finishing down the field at Flemington and Swan Hill on her final two starts of last season.

Trained by Will Clarken & Niki O’Shea the mare resumed with a good second when beaten narrowly over 1000m in a Benchmark 76 handicap held on the Parks course at Morphettville in November.

The selection went on to deliver a good effort in being beaten just over one-and-a-half-lengths when fifth in a 1200m Listed contest on the main track at Morphettville subsequently.

Kayla Crowther, on board for both efforts this prep is again set to ride here and returning to handicap company her mount looks up to registering her seventh career win.

Thomas Farms Handicap Tips (Race 4)


Murray Bridge Value Bet - Race 4 No. 8 Tullaghan

The gelding ended his last prep with a length success in a 2004m Restricted 66 handicap held on a good 4 track at Morphettville in early May.

The seven-year-old failed to shine when jumping at big odds in his first two starts this time around with both of those efforts coming over inadequate distances.

There were signs of improvement when beaten less than three lengths seventh over 2000m here on his penultimate start however.

The son of Al Maher took a further step forward when finishing runner-up to an all the way winner when contesting an 1800m Benchmark 78 handicap at the same venue two weeks ago. 

Thrill Kill, who is set to reoppose here finished one place back in third with the pick boasting a good barrier for this contest.

Trevor Day’s representative gets in off a low weight and he looks value to make the perfect start to 2025.

Sportsbet Same Race Multi Handicap Tips (Race 5)


Murray Bridge Next Best Bet - Race 5 No. 2 Pearl Adios

The five-year-old has been going well in recent months with his sole unplaced effort from three starts coming in the Sportsbet Happy Trails Final at Morphettville.

The pick raced over this distance on that occasion having return to action with a narrow win in a 1200m Benchmark 70 handicap at the same venue two starts earlier.

The son of Rebel Raider came close to making amends for his disappointing Morphettville effort when beaten less than a length over 1400m here last time.

The selection contested a Benchmark 72 handicap held on a good 4 track that day and he is expected to encounter similar conditions in this event. 

Jason Holder’s mount is a versatile sort with regard to tactics and he has an inside barrier for this contest.

Trainer Andrew Gluyas has won with four of his last eight runners and his gelding looks up to recording a win here.

Aussie Twilight Races Fri 24th Jan Handicap Tips (Race 8)


Murray Bridge Roughie - Race 8 No. 8 Naralinga

Trainer Daryl Dodson’s horses have been in great form in the last month with five winners from nine runners.

The pick contributed to those wins when racing from off the pace prior to finishing half-a-length clear of his rivals in an 1102m Restricted 58 handicap at Stawell. 

The fourth home that day has won subsequently with the selection registering his second win in his last three starts that day.

The gelding’s previous success saw him break through for his maiden success when saluting by a length over 900m here the previous month.

Those two victories sandwich a respectable fifth, beaten just under three-and-a-half-lengths in a metro Benchmark 64 handicap over 1000m at Morphettville Parks.

The four-year-old has a good barrier six from the rail with recent efforts suggesting the step up in distance here will suit.

Barrier six is a positive in this event and the decision to skip a race at Hamilton on Tuesday to head here is taken to pay dividends.
