Visit Dabble |
Metro racing returns to Canterbury Park Racecourse on Wednesday, with a quickfire seven-part program set to start at 1:25pm AEST. The rail moves out +8m for the meeting, so punters will want to give a slight edge to on-speed gallopers. Pristine spring conditions are forecast to continue throughout the week, so participants should be racing on a genuine Good 4 surface.
Best Bet at Canterbury: Deprivation
Deprivation was an impressive winner two starts back at Newcastle before being narrowly beaten at Warwick Farm on September 4. The son of No Nay Never looked to make every post a winner on that occasion but was just denied by Sir Artie as the pair cleared out by 3.5 lengths of their remaining rivals. The six-year-old gelding should strip fitter for that effort, and with similar front-running tactics likely to be adopted by Benjamin Osmond, Deprivation will prove hard to chase down.
Best Bet
Race 3 – #1 Deprivation (5)
6yo Gelding | T: Nathan Doyle | J: Benjamin Osmond (a3kg) (62kg)
+230 with Neds
Next Best at Canterbury: Mergeila
Mergeila found the minor money on debut at Rosehill on July 20, and although she was no match for the likes of Mayfair and Mawjood, the Justify filly seems to have plenty of upside. She caught the eye in a trial at the same course on September 5 and looked to be travelling beautifully underneath leading hoop James McDonald. She should lob into the one-one from barrier two, and provided she can respond when asked the ultimate question, Mergeila will prove hard to hold out.

Race 2 – #6 Mergeila (2)
3yo Filly | T: Chris Waller | J: James McDonald (56kg)

Next Best Again at Canterbury: Jellicious
The Ciaron Maher-trained Jellicious returns after a 132-day spell and comes through a hot form race prior to heading to the paddock. The daughter of Snitzel was close up behind Clean Energy at Warwick Farm on May 8, with that race providing five subsequent winners. As long as she doesn’t fall victim to the ‘Canterbury coffin’, watch for this progressive filly to be launching over the top to claim her maiden success.

Race 1 – #10 Jellicious (1)
