Royal Randwick Racecourse is the destination for metro racing on Saturday afternoon, with a bumper nine-race program set down for decision. The rail moves out +7m the entire circuit for the meeting, and with minimal rainfall forecast heading into the weekend, hopefully the Good 4 rating at the time of acceptances can hold for race-day. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 1:05pm local time.
Best Bet at Randwick: Don Diego De Vega
Don Diego De Vega returns after a 196-day spell and looks supremely placed in this BM88 contest to kick off his second Australian campaign. The son of Lope De Vega produced a win and minor placing in his two starts last preparation, with the five-year-old lugging the 61kg to victory in a competitive BM78 at this course on July 13. He was pushed out in a recent barrier trial win to get him wound-up for this first-up assignment, and with the Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald barn potentially seeking black-type this time in, Don Diego De Vega needs to be taking care of this lot.
Best Bet
Race 5 – 
#2 Don Diego De Vega (3)
5yo Gelding | T: Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald | J: Jason Collett (58.5kg)

Next Best at Randwick: United States
The Chris Waller-trained United States debuts after one official barrier trial at Rosehill on January 7. The Snitzel colt impressed as he cruised through the wire under his own steam, getting within 2.2 lengths of Yoweri under minimal urging by James McDonald. Star hoop Kerrin McEvoy takes the reins as the two-year-old heads to the races for the first time, and with barrier two allowing McEvoy to take up a handy position throughout the journey, expect United States to get the job done and throw himself into Group 1 Golden Slipper (1200m) contention in the process.
Next Best
Race 1 – 
#6 United States (2)
2yo Colt | T: Chris Waller | J: Kerrin McEvoy (58kg)

Best Value at Randwick: Genzano
Genzano represents terrific each-way value with horse racing bookmakers as she returns after a 231-day spell. The 2023 Group 3 Spring Stakes (1600m) winner didn’t fire a shot in her two starts last preparation, with the daughter of Maurice having no luck from horrible barriers when racing in Queensland amongst genuine Group-level quality. Her recent barrier trial at Muswellbrook on January 2 suggests she’s ready to fire in this BM72 contest, and with Aaron Bullock likely to stalk his rivals from the one-one, watch for Genzano to be launching late at the $19.00 with Picklebet.
Best Value
Race 6 – 
#3 Genzano (2)
4yo Mare | T: Paul Messara & Leah Gavranich | J: Aaron Bullock (59.5kg)
+1800 with Picklebet
