See below for our expert Saturday daily racing tips for May 3rd including Caulfield best bets and Eagle Farm tips!
Caulfield - Race 1 12:15pm
No. 1 Prestige Ole
After finishing fourth, beaten two lengths on debut at Ballarat, Prestige Ole has since recorded consecutive wins in maiden company, and in a lucrative VOBIS race at Flemington.
He’s a month between runs, but he’s got plenty of upside and rates as a leading contender again in the Caulfield opener on Saturday.
Caulfield - Race 6 3:05pm
No. 9 Aethelflaed
Having finished second behind Zardozi in the VRC Oaks in 2023, Aethelflaed spent nearly 18 months away from the races before returning at Canberra last month for a dominant victory.
With further improvement and getting out to 2000m, this looks perfect placement again from the Matt Smith stable.
Hawkesbury - Race 8 3:25pm
No. 9 Tavi Time
Tavi Time has raced consistently through 19 trips to the races so far and was excellent during his spring preparation, ultimately ending his year with victory in the Group 3 Summer Cup.
He couldn’t have done a lot more without winning in BM100 company at Randwick first-up a fortnight ago, and with natural improvement and getting out to a mile, he gets plenty of ticks this week in the 2025 Hawkesbury Gold Cup.
Eagle Farm - Race 8 4:13pm
No. 14 Coleman
Coleman stamped himself as horse to follow during an excellent two-year-old campaign that was unlucky not to peak with victory in a Golden Slipper.
While he hasn’t won a race for more than a year now, he has continued to race well in strong company, and he’s had the benefit of a couple of trials since joining master trainer Chris Waller.
