Boxing Day racing heads to Royal Randwick Racecourse on Thursday afternoon, with the Group 3 Summer Cup (2000m) headlining a competitive eight-part program. The rail moves out +6m for the entire circuit, and with sunny skies forecast on Christmas Day, punters can expect a genuine Good 4 surface. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 1:35pm local time.
Summer Cup Tip: Osipenko
The Chris Waller-trained Osipenko appears set to peak in the 2024 Summer Cup after an eye-catching performance in the Group 2 Ingham Stakes (1600m) on December 14. The Pierro gelding was putting in the big strides when it was all over, suggesting the step up to 2000m should be ideal. Barrier one should allow Reece Jones to take closer order this time around, and provided Osipenko can show a similar turn of foot, watch for this guy to be finishing best at an each-way price with horse racing bookmakers.

#4 Osipenko (1)

Best Bet at Randwick: Tuileries
Tuileries couldn’t have been more impressive first-up at Canterbury on December 13, storming clear to break her maiden with a tearaway three-length win. The daughter of So You Think should only improve heading into this second-up assignment, and with Tom Sherry likely to snag the leaders’ back throughout the journey, expect another dominant showing from this untapped three-year-old.
Best Bet
Race 4 – 
#8 Tuileries (1)
3yo Filly | T: Peter Snowden | J: Tom Sherry (56kg)
+140 with BlondeBet
Next Best at Randwick: Endure
Endure ran into a smart one in the form of Burj on debut at Newcastle on December 1, closing off well to get within a length of the progressive filly. The pair cleared out on their remaining rivals, suggesting punters can follow the form-lines with trust. Rachel King gets every chance to land in the one-one from stall three, and provided Endure has come on from her first-up performance, she will prove hard to hold out.
Next Best
Race 1 – 
#7 Endure (3)
3yo Filly | T: Chris Waller | J: Rachel King (55.5kg)
+170 with Picklebet
Best Value at Randwick: Holy Hell
Holy Hell gets her chance in metro company after a strong debut at Nowra on December 15. The Hellbent filly was only beaten by a nose on that occasion, lacking race-day fitness compared to Shalmum, with the pair storming clear of the rest. She should take major benefit from that run, and at the each-way price with PlayUp, Holy Hell warrants respect in this wide-open maiden.
Best Value
Race 3 – 
#16 Holy Hell (7)
3yo Filly | T: Danielle Seib | J: Zac Wadick (a2kg) (55.5kg)
+1000 with PlayUp
