Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays for Australian TAB meetings on May 15.
Five TAB meetings are held across Australia on this Wednesday at Warwick Farm, Sandown, Sunshine Coast, Ascot & Murray Bridge.
Warwick Farm Race 3 @ 2.00pm
Northern Voyage should hold the lead from Rexx and Foxy's Foxinator at a strong gallop. TIME RAID (4) has started favourite at all three runs this prep and clocked-in 2nd on each occasion. Loomed up to win over this trip at Gosford last time but just missed in a close finish. Cherry-ripe now and McEvoy takes over so worth one more chance. Expect a better run from FUN FACT (1) today in a far easier race. Wasn't disgraced in back-to-back G3 races at Randwick through the Carnival then disappointed at the Kensington track last time in a BM78. Three-time winner at this trip and has a class edge on his rivals. PERFECT PITCH (2) went from 1300m to 1600m recently at Wagga and was there to the half-furlong before tiring to miss a place. Fitter now and worth some thought. Last start maiden winner REXX (5), who was scratched from Race 2, is a chance also. SELECTIONS: Favourite punters stung by #4 Time Raid this prep should butter-up one more time.

Sunshine Coast: Race 1 @ 12:33pm
AUSFALL (3) peaks now and missed a lip the latest at Eagle Farm. Is ready to win and the wet track shouldn’t bother. FROM NOW (4) has been close up placing the last three at this venue on slow/heavy tracks. Draws to advantage and will go close. GOOD TIME GIRL (7) will be better this trip and is also a hope. MIZ MACEY (2) gets the 3kg claim and goes in at odds. SELECTIONS: Looks a good race for # 3 Ausfall.
Sandown: Race 4 @ 2:10pm
INTUERI (4) will try to control this from the front. Just missed latest in town and the small field suits. The one to run down. ROYAL ACE (2) is the main danger. Strong return, excels second up and did win only start here. CONNERY (10) ran on hard to score fresh. Top chance and has upside. MISTER BELVEDERE (7) is a former UK galloper making Australian debut for new yard. Placed 2/3 fresh but place probably best here first time out. BEDFORD (5) could sneak a place fresh. SELECTIONS Intueri the one to run down.
Murray Bridge: Race 5 @ 3:00pm
AZZURO BIANCO (1) will push forward and just missed this grade at Gawler off the Mildura win. Keeps improving and is a big chance to win again. FULTON STREET (5) is better than the form line reads and has only been knocked off late the last two. He’s quick and will clear the gate and should be right in the finish. FRANCE'S BOY (7) missed a nose at Strathalbyn coming from the back running his best race. Gets a better draw today and gets the chance to go one better. KNOTTED (3) won here and then led and folded up at Gawler and best to forgive. A bounce wouldn’t surprise. SELECTIONS: Competitive fields all day. #1 Azzuro Bianco rates well and looks a solid bet each way.
