Best bets: Moonee Valley, Royal Randwick, Sandown Hillside, Gawler and Doomben

Our tipsters are pumped for more success after the stars aligned last week on one of summer’s biggest racedays — Magic Millions — with six winners. Can they hit the jackpot again?

Viridine should be too good for his rivals under lights.

Our experts give you an early shot at finding a winner around the nation in the major races this weekend.

Last week … Six winners. News Racing tipster Simon Moy was back to his very best with his top tip Housay ($5.50) getting the job done down the Flemington straight and value bet Coolth ($6) part of a very tidy race-to-race double.

Courier Mail racing editor Nathan Exelby made sure punters were in the queue early on Magic Millions Raceday when Newsreader ($5.50) led them a merry dance.

Not often News Racing’s leader tipster misses out and Saturday was no different with Chris Vernuccio’s value bet Jonker ($4.80) also finding the line at the Gold Coast.

Racenet’s Jett Hatton returned from a well-earned spell and didn’t waste time hitting the bullseye with best bet Fabergino ($3.60) at Flemington.

Herald Sun’s Gilbert Gardiner, not one to miss out on a party, chimed in with best bet Over Exposure ($2.50), also at headquarters.

That was more like it. Let’s hope the trend continues this weekend.

SANDOWN HILLSIDE (9 races, start 12.55pm), ROYAL RANDWICK (9 races, 12.40pm), DOOMBEN (9 races, 1.23pm), GAWLER (9 races, 11.05am)

FRIDAY NIGHT

MOONEE VALLEY

NICK QUINN (TAB). Form: 1x514

VIRIDINE (Race 4, No. 3 — $1.85)

Smart sprinter resuming over his pet distance. Enjoyed a successful 2020 including winning the Group 3 Bletchingly Stakes and looks a class above his opposition.

Value bet: ALTAI RANGE (Sandown Saturday, Race 2, No. 7 — $5.50)

CHRIS VERNUCCIO (NewsRacing). Form: 18133

ZESTY BELLE (Race 7 No. 6 — $3.60)

Won with ease last start and has the talent to overcome her wide barrier.

Value bet: DATE DANCE (Race 6, No. 9 — $6)

LATEST BETTING: TAB FIXED ODDS

SATURDAY

DOOMBEN

NATHAN EXELBY (Courier-Mail). Form: x1631

GARIBALDI (Race 4, No. 1 — $2.60)

He’s learned to be a winner again now. Trainer Tony Gollan bypassed the tougher races of the past three weeks and has waited for this very winnable C3 Plate. Like the way he put them away at EF last time and he can continue on with the job here.

Value bet: ADVANCE WARNING (Race 7, No. 7 — $13)

JETT HATTON (Racenet). Form: 125x1

LIGULATE (Race 2, No. 2 — $2.10)

Went super in The Buffering last time out and looks extremely well placed back in grade. Was a dominant winner over this track and distance two runs back and gets in 4kg lighter on Saturday while Andrew Mallyon retains the ride.

Value bet: GAME OF THORNS (Randwick Race 9, No. 4 — $11)

LATEST BETTING: TAB FIXED ODDS

Garibaldi looks well placed to get the job done at Doomben.

SANDOWN HILLSIDE

STEPHEN BRASSEL (National Racing Editor) Form: x3312

PICARONES (Race 1, No. 1 — $2.80)

She’s a filly giving weight to the colts but Picarones was outstanding on debut when winning at Caulfield and she’s only going to be better for the experience.

Best value: CHINA AFFAIR (Race 9, No. 8 — $7)

SIMON MOY (NewsRacing). Form: 1x581

QUANTUM MECHANIC (Race 5, No. 2 — $2.40)

Hasn’t won for some time but just missed last start when somewhat unlucky and this looks ideal.

Value bet: IDIDITFORLOVE (Race 9, No. 3 — $6.50)

GILBERT GARDINER (Herald Sun) Form: 21

QUANTUM MECHANIC (Race 5 No. 2 — $2.50)

Unlucky not to win last start. Gets her chance and Jamie Kah sticks.

Value bet: IRISH BUTTERFLY (Race 2, No. 4 — $4)

BRAD WATERS (Racenet) Form: 8393x2

PICARONES (Race 1, No. 1 — $2.70)

Professional Godolphin filly that impressed on debut and the rise in trip will be perfect for her at Sandown.

Value bet: GALGANI (Race 5, No. 7 — $9.50)

ROYAL RANDWICK

MATT JONES (Daily Telegraph) Form: 16

ORDER AGAIN (Race 8, No. 3 — $7)

This Chris Waller middle distance runner will have gained plenty of confidence out of a breakthrough win last start and it was a dominant victory which showed how good he was going.

Value bet: DAME KIRI (Race 9, No. 5 — $12)
