Royal Randwick is the destination for NSW metro racing this Saturday as they get set to host an ultra-competitive 10-race program. The rail moves out +6m between the 1600m marker to the winning post, while the remainder of the rail sits out +4m. Improving conditions are forecast leading into the weekend, so expect the course to be a genuine Good 4 prior to the opening race at 12:30pm AEDT.
Best Bet at Randwick: Our Kobison
Our Kobison is returning from a 150-day spell on Saturday and will be looking to continue building on his already impressive resume. The lightly raced four-year-old has three wins in five career starts to date, with his latest barnstorming effort to secure victory coming at BM72 level at Warwick Farm on August 9. Trainer Angela Davies has kept the son of Kobayashi fresh since that performance, only allowing the gelding to step-out once in an outstanding tick-over barrier trial at Wyong on December 15. This will prove to be Our Kobison’s toughest task to date, and with some luck from barrier seven, we’re confident he can continue his winning ways.
Best Bet
Race 2 – #8 Our Kobison (7)

Next Best at Randwick: Hellsing
Hellsing looks ready for a first-up assault as he makes his Australian debut for the Annabel Nesham barn. The son of Dandy Man brings strong credentials to this BM88 contest, already boasting a Listed victory at Tipperary in August of 2022. The four-year-old has only had one jump-out leading into this contest but couldn’t have been more impressive in securing victory at Warwick Farm on December 22, ridden with a sit before powering over the top to score. He appears wound up for this event, and with James McDonald returning to the saddle after his Hong Kong stint, Hellsing should prove to be one of his better rides on the program.
Next Best
Race 7 – #4 Hellsing (7)

Best Value at Randwick: Flamin’ Romans
After a dominant maiden victory at Bendigo on December 17, Flamin’ Romans makes his way to Sydney for the first time as the Ciaron Maher & David Eustace-trained four-year-old searches for back-to-back wins. He made every post a winner on that occasion and justified the short quote with horse racing bookmakers clearing out by 1.3 lengths. The margin back to third was significant and that race has already produced another subsequent winner since. This guy is dual-accepted for a race at Geelong, however, if the team elect to send Flamin’ Romans to Randwick, watch for Zac Lloyd to attempt similar front-running tactics.
Best Value
Race 6 – #6 Flamin’ Romans (12)
4yo Gelding | T: Ciaron Maher & David Eustace | J: Zac Lloyd (55kg)
