We have Gimcrack Stakes tips and predictions for the Group 3 1000m race at Randwick on Saturday.
Gimcrack Stakes odds have an even betting field available, and any one of the 13 runners could take out the juvenile race.
She has the trial form on the board after scoring by just under three lengths, and she looks ready to make an impression on debut.
The 2YO filly by Capitalist comes from a stable that knows how to prepare them for these races, and it’s only the wide draw that counts against her. She could push forward from the wide barrier to sit on the speed, which isn’t a bad tactic over 1000m.
Jockey Andrew Adkins has only two wins from his last 50 rides, which is concerning, but this could springboard the jockey back into the limelight. She is a filly with loads of upside, and if she hadn’t drawn wide, her odds would be much shorter.
There isn’t much between most runners in this field, so at $4.80, she is being included in our Gimcrack Stakes predictions.

Our Gimcrack Stakes tips include She’s Supreme, who is another trial winner looking to make an impact on race day.
The 2YO filly by Exceedance doesn’t need luck on her side from the inside barrier, and she only needs to soak up the early speed and be put into the race. It’s going to be a mad dash for the front, but she won’t need to come around a horse.
She showed good barrier speed at the trials, and she’s bred to be tough. She’ll need toughness to hold them off late, but there is enough value in the current odds to include her in selections.

A runner going under the radar in betting markets is Outback Affair. She hails from the Waterhouse/Bott stable, and they have a good record in the Gimcrack Stakes.
Her trial performance behind Shezablaze was good, and although beaten by just under three lengths, she was always going to improve with that trial under her belt, and she could show up on race day.
The progeny of Home Affairs is going well this season, so she’ll be a strong type, and she should push forward from barrier 8. That should set her up nicely for a good run, and the odds are worth including to boost SRM payouts.

Punters get value odds with our Gimcrack Stakes SRM, which includes our three selected runners.
We have Shezablaze Top 2, She’s Supreme Top 4, and Outback Affair Top 5, which pays $19.00 for our three-runner SRM.
There are a lot of unknowns in the Gimcrack Stakes, which is always the case with non-raced horses. However, we’re confident that our three runners will go well, and the odds are worth including them in a same-race multi bet this weekend.
