Horse Racing Tips & Best Bets – Friday 15th May, 2020

Friday will see a host of quality thoroughbred races across the country with our focus being on the Scone Cup day meeting at Scone in New South Wales.  Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Friday 15th May, 2020.

Scone – Race 3 1:30PM AEST

No. 2 Secretly Awesome – Bet Now: $3.00

Secretly Awesome made his racing debut with a credible second place finish at Newcastle and he went on to record his maiden race win with a very impressive victory at Wyong last start.

A repeat of that effort would make him very tough to beat in this contest and I like the fact that trainer Gerald Ryan has given him a barrier trial between race starts.

Scone – Race 6 3:15PM AEST

BEST BET: No. 10 Luna Mia – Bet Now: $7.00

It has been a while between race wins for Luna Mia, but she does find herself in a winnable contest this afternoon.

She has been racing well in competitive editions of the Highway Handicap and this is probably the weakest race that she has contested in some time.

The wide barrier draw means that she will settle in the second half of the field, but she will be storming home late.

Scone – Race 7 3:55PM AEST

No. 11 Phaistos – Bet Now: $3.90

This is a very interesting edition of the Scone Cup and there are a host of winning chances.

He was only narrowly denied by Ranier when he returned to the races at Royal Randwick and he showed an outstanding turn-of-foot to return to winning form last start.

The step-up in trip looks ideal for him and he has an excellent chance to claim the biggest win of his racing career to date.

Scone – Race 8 4:35PM AEST

No. 4 Bollywood – Bet Now: $4.00

Bollywood is a filly that is starting to live up to her early promise and she is well-placed to make it back-to-back wins in this contest at Scone this afternoon.

She beat a stronger field than this to win at Gosford last start and she still has the scope to improve on that performance.

Barrier six is ideal for her and she maps to get a lovely run in transit with Jeff Penza in the saddle.
