RACING TIPS: Kensington Best Selection & Value Play 27/8

Midweek Sydney racing takes place at Kensington this week. Our analyst has picked out a rock-hard fit Waller mare and a country galloper with a last start 2nd behind a subsequent Saturday runner-up over the same track/distance as the value play.

Best Selection: R1- Maquisa

Maquisa ticks a few boxes having the fitness to take on the tough Kensington 1250m. She is proven on Heavy tracks and maps to land in the first 4 without too much risk from Gate 5.



Value Selection: R5 – I’ve Bean Tryin

I’ve Bean Tryin really appeals at odds in this being rock hard fit and coming off a 0.3L 2nd to Narbold over this track/distance on a Heavy 9. The winner has since been a runner-up at Randwick with a 2.5L gap back to 3rd. Happy to take the $10 in early markets.
