Friday Racing Tips - Canterbury Racecourse 07/02/25

Canterbury hosts a bumper 7 race card this Friday evening, with some fantastic horses in action.

All eyes will be on the usual suspects such as J-Mac but there are heaps of good horses and jockeys in contention.

OnlyRacing remain the number one resource on the market, as we look to seek out the best bets of the day.

(Note: Odds provided by Playup)

Selections:
3. Wa Wa Wa - $1.65
6. Now Is The Hour - $5.00
5. Flying From Above - $6.00

BEST BET - Wa Wa Wa - $1.65
Chris Waller and James McDonald team up on this one, with Wa Wa Wa looking to break its maiden. It finished 3rd at Randwick last time out and should be ready to challenge here at Canterbury.

THE DANGER - Now Is The Hour - $5.00
Stablemate Now Is The Hour is also in the running here and conditions could perhaps give it a better chance than the odds suggest. It will be interesting to see how the market develops with this one.

VALUE BET - Flying From Above - $6.00
Sneaking under the radar a touch is Flying From Above, who looked the part in finishing third at Newcastle on debut and could kick on here, in very favourable conditions.

Selections:
4. Smart Legend - $2.80
12. Sting In The Tail - $4.20
2. Victory Roll - $7.00

BEST BET - Smart Legend - $2.80
A win and a second place from its two outings will be a huge tick in the box here for Smart Legend, a horse that knows its way around the Canterbury track too and it will be the one to beat.

THE DANGER - Sting In The Tail - $4.20
The winning habit continues for Sting In The Tail, who is prolific of late and this could be a great chance to add to its excellent record. It will have to be at its best to prevail in this field though.

VALUE BET - Victory Roll - $7.00
Kiwi flyer Victory Roll won so impressively at Wagga last time out and will be looking to back that up here. Competition will be stiffer in this one but Victory Roll is a horse bang in form.

Selections:
2. Sweysive - $3.20
5. Rematch - $4.00
3. Fortune - $7.00

BEST BET - Sweysive - $3.20
Two wins on the bounce have propelled Sweysive to the top of the market here and this could be a chance to make it three in a row. Bjorn Baker is doing a great job with this horse and it is one to keep an eye on.

THE DANGER - Rematch - $4.00
Another horse in the winning groove is Rematch, who was mightily impressive in winning at Tamworth last time out and it will look to carry on that form here, in what should be favourable conditions.

VALUE BET - Fortune - $7.00
Value can be found all across this field but it is perhaps French flyer Fortune that presents the best outside shot. It has been trending in the right direction recently and this could be a good chance to bag a win.
