Gawler Horse Racing Tips Mon 5/10/26

Who wants to lead in Race 7 at Gawler? On the map nobody does, and that’s the race where our best bet runs. It’s a Good 4 under overcast skies, so the ground is a bit slow but nowhere near a bog. Seven races on the card, and we’re only keen on two. The other is Shalhavmusik in Race 6. Gate 10 is the knock, but she’s building nicely this campaign and $5 for her looks fair.

12. Shalhavmusik $5.00

Barrier 10 · Midfield · No leader

#12 Shalhavmusik is heading the right way. She’s gone fifth, fourth, then second last start, so this campaign is finally starting to click. Brooke King rides. Gate 10 is the knock, and she’ll probably land midfield from there. I like the way she’s building, though, and $5 is fair for one still on the way up.
