What Alice Springs Races
Where Pioneer Park Racecourse – Stuart Hwy, Connellan NT 0870
When Sunday, May 5, 2024
First Race 2:14pm ACST

There might only be five races at Alice Springs on Sunday, but the numbers are still healthy with 50 runners accepting. A terrific field will contest the feature race on the program, the $22,500 Emmie Wehr Memorial Handicap (1600m). Fine, sunny conditions and a top temperature of 22C are forecasted for Sunday, while the rail will be set in the true position.

BEST BET: PROTOSTAR

Protostar has had five starts in the Red Centre, and despite achieving just one win, he hasn’t been all that far away. After sneaking home over 1200m (0-58) on March 17, the five-year-old gelding ran second over 1200m (0-58) on April 6 and was far from disgraced when fourth over 1100m (0-58) two weeks ago. He drops 2kg and draws a good gate on Sunday.

NEXT BEST: PRINCESS PANCAKES

Princess Pancakes returns after getting the cash over 1400m (0-64) a fortnight ago. That win came on the back of three straight seconds over 1600m on March 9 (0-64), March 30 (0-64) and April 7 (0-62). The five-year-old mare has yet to win a race over 1600m in eight attempts, but she is racing well and won’t be far away despite lumping an extra 2kg.

BEST VALUE: LAMOREE

In 11 Pioneer Park starts since making her debut last June, Lamoree has finished second on five occasions. In March, she was the bridesmaid over 1100m (Class 2), 1100m (0-58) and 1200m (0-58) before fading to finish ninth as a $2.60 favourite over 1200m (0-58) after building momentum at the home turn. The mare bounced back to form two weeks later when she finished second behind Bold Tropic, and she holds a 3kg weight advantage over that runner this weekend.
