Midweek metropolitan action takes us to Sydney’s west and there are eight races included in our Warwick Farm preview this week!
We’ve enjoyed some good success in our Sydney best bets in recent weeks, and with the rail left in the true position around the entire course and a Soft (5) track materialising, I’m confident of extending the record through this program.
Check out all of my Warwick Farm tips and racing preview below.
There isn’t a lot of form to study ahead of the first at Warwick Farm this week, but I’ve been impressed by Grand Eagle’s trials.
The Farnan colt was partnered by Josh Parr in all three jumpouts, turning in an improved effort with each. This looks an appropriate campaign launchpad.

Polymnia is second up and primed to strike at Warwick Farm on Wednesday.
The Dundeel filly is a six-start maiden, but she’s finished the runner up on three occasions, including an eye-catching performance here fresh from a break last month.
With natural improvement and under James McDonald, she might not be offered a better opportunity than this.

Another second-up galloper that looks well placed to strike in Sydney this week is Brigidine Gal.
Brigidine Gal ended her three-start debut preparation with a nice win over 1400m at Rosehill Gardens, when she returned to action to finish on the placegetters’ heels here last month.
With natural improvement, she’s drawn to receive a lovely run this week under Regan Bayliss.

Admitted is a fitting short-priced favourite ahead of Race 4 at Warwick Farm this week.
The Brazen Beau gelding hasn’t been seen at the races since October, but he has recorded two wins from just three starts, with his only miss to date coming in Group 3 company.
A recent trial performance adds further confidence, and he is my best bet of the day.

This looms as one of the more open races on the program at publish, we’re faced with around $5 the field.
Desiah is yet to do much in two runs back from a break, but she steps out a fit horse this week and this is also the weakest task she has been set.
She gets several ticks this week, with a senior jockey on board and a credible barrier, and we can have an each way play at big odds.

We were with Seven’s when he ran into the minors at his Australian debut here and I am keen to give him another chance.
Seven’s was unbeaten in two starts over in France during his debut prep last year, while he clearly needed the run here in January to dust off the cobwebs.
With improved fitness and getting further out in trip, this looks a lovely race for him.

It’s A Knockout strikes a winnable race second up from a spell this week.
The Dundeel mare was almost faultless through three starts in her debut preparation, while she returned to action to finish a head behind Dark Glitter at Randwick last month.
That horse has since come out and franked the form and with even luck in running, I can’t find a reason why It’s A Knockout won’t be in the finish again.

Just Glamourous returned to action with an eye-catching performance and victory at Canterbury and can go on with it on Wednesday.
The Justify mare was excellent during her spring preparation and completed an ideal return when hitting the line a head ahead of Laurel Hill at Canterbury.
The rise in trip looks suitable and the booking of Adam Hyeronimus adds further confidence.
