The annual $50,000 Bathurst Cup will headline the eight-race program at Bathurst Racecourse on Sunday afternoon, with the first race jumping at 1:15pm AEST. After consistent rain fall over New South Wales, we will be racing on a Heavy 8 with the chance of more rain to fall before and during the meeting. The rail will be in the true position for the entire circuit for the feature meeting of the year.
Bathurst Cup Top Tip – Deel With Me
As one of the qualifiers for the inaugural $2,000,000 Big Dance at Royal Randwick on November 1 over 1600m, this year’s Bathurst Cup will feature one of the strongest fields we have seen. The Bjorn Baker-trained Deel With Me will be our top tip to take out the $50,000 Bathurst Cup, punching his ticket into the Big Dance in just over a months’ time. This five-year-old son of Dundeel will appreciate the cut out of the ground, with all three of his wins coming on soft or heavy tracks. With more rain expected before and on raceday, the current Heavy 8 rating or worse will suit this guy more and more. Now that he is fourth-up with one run at 1800m under his belt, this guy should be very fit and very tough to beat.

Best Bet at Bathurst – Wandjina Spirit
Our best bet on the card comes up nice and early in race one where we are with the David Smith-trained Wandjina Spirit. This lightly raced five-year-old mare will be looking to continue to improve and go one better than her previous start and break her maiden at start number three. This daughter of Wandjina has had two starts on heavy tracks for two minor placings showing that a wet track will be no negative at all. Winona Costin sticks with this girl for her third-up run and if she can be on the pace or just in behind the leaders, we should be starting our day off on the right foot with an early winner.

Best Value at Bathurst – Petain
The Bob Howe-trained Petain will be lining up for start number 81 today when he takes his place in a Benchmark 58 Handicap over 1200m. This eight-year-old veteran has been a great money spinner for connections recording eight wins and 25 minor placings over his long career. After recording back-to-back wins over the last two starts, we believe that he can make it three from three here, as he finds another heavy track, where he has recorded two wins and two minor placings from six starts. Anthony Cavallo will be jumping aboard this son of Commands for the 57th time and from barrier six this guy should land around midfield and be letting down in the straight to have the last crack at them late.
