Victoria’s Moonee Valley Racecourse will be home to a stellar eight-race programme this evening kicking off at 6:45pm (AEDST) with the $30,000 Mitchell Property Management Handicap (1600m).
Our tip for opening Moonee Valley event is #3 Lady Of The Lamp, Peter Moody’s speedy Fastnet Rock filly coming off a close second at this track and distance on February 4 and drawn well in barrier two.
Moonee Valley Race 4 is another quality fillies-only race on tonight’s card, the $55,000 Essendon Mazda 55 Second Challenge Heat 14 (955m) due to jump at 8:15pm (AEDST) and for the win the hot favourite #1 Umgeton is hard to go past.
The other headline event not to miss here is Race 7 – the $30,000 LF Signs & Designs Handicap (2500m) at 9:45pm (AEDST) where we are tipping #3 Montgomery to win their third straight at the track.
