Coonamble Jockey Club is the destination for NSW country racing on Sunday afternoon, with a stacked eight-race program lined up for punters. The $75,000 Coonamble Gold Cup is the feature event, with a golden ticket to the Big Dance (1600m) up for grabs. The rail is in the true position the entire circuit, and with no significant rainfall forecast to hit the course proper, it should be a picturesque day for racing. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 1:15pm AEDT.
Coonamble Gold Cup Tip: Hollywood Hero
Hollywood Hero returns to defend his crown in the 2024 Coonamble Gold Cup and should prove hard to hold out after giving a good account of himself in the Dubbo Cup on September 29. He fit the line well despite being worse than mid-field turning for home, suggesting the son of Sacred Falls is ready to peak fourth-up into the campaign. Kody Nestor does the steering from gate one this time around, and although Hollywood Hero needs to lug 62kgs to victory, this guy should prove classy enough to get the job done.

Best Bet at Coonamble: Rennata
Rennata caught the first-up at Newcastle on October 1, and although she was rolled as a short-priced favourite with horse racing bookmakers, the daughter of I Am Invincible warrants forgiving. She missed the start from gate two before rallying late to get within 1.2 lengths of Cosmeena and looks well suited dropping back into country maiden company. Barrier 18 will be more appealing after a couple scratchings and provided Aaron Bullock can stalk the speed with cover throughout, Rennata will prove hard to hold out this time around.

Next Best at Coonamble: Almost Maybe
Almost Maybe debuts on the back of one tick-over barrier trial at Wyong on September 9, and although he raced green throughout, the son of Shalaa appears to have a stack of ability. The unraced three-year-old was under a stranglehold throughout the trial, with claiming apprentice Siena Grima trying to relax the untapped gelding. Barrier four should allow him to settle in the one-one throughout, and provided his manners are in check for race-day, Almost Maybe represents good value at the $5.00 available with horse betting sites.
