RACING: Canterbury Insights & Tips – Wednesday 28/5

Racing at Canterbury is set for 7 races with the track in the heavy range and we have our top 3 chances in every race below.

It is always important to look at track bias and in-form jockeys and trainers when punting so we have placed some interesting facts for you below.

Best winning lane when rail is in the 3m-7m position
  • Fence = 19% Win Strike Rate
Best Trainer Strike Rate (Last 100 Runners)
  • Waterhouse & Boot = 27%
Best Jockey Strike Rate (Last 100 Rides)
  • Braith Nock = 19%

Race 1 – 1:00PM RANVET HANDICAP (1100 METRES)

There is always a bit of guesswork in races where a majority of the runners only have trial form on the board and it is always made harder with 2yo’s on heavy ground.

Treat this race with caution but we are happy to look for the runners that have trialled well and will sit on speed.
