Gosford Racecourse horse racing tips and form preview

Gosford Horse Racing Tips Fri 28/8/26

Soft 6 at Gosford with the rail in the true position, and. It’s a sprint card too, six of the eight races at 1200m or shorter, so there isn’t much room to be making up ground late. Temptation caught the eye in race 3, in from $2.20 to $1.80 for Bjorn Baker, and Fleet Flyer is one we’re looking at early in race 7, won last start for Ron Quinton and firming from $4 into $3.30. Tacitly has placed at all three runs this prep and goes around over 2070m in race 6, the one staying test on an otherwise short card, and worth another look if he can finally get his head in front. Selections drop here around 10am race morning once the markets firm.
