Mornington Horse Racing Tips Mon 8/6/26
Eight races at Mornington and we’ve found something worth a look in every one of them, so it’s a busy card with plenty going on. Heavy 8 underfoot but the weather’s fine overhead, so the ground should hold up rather than slip the other way. Delicate Lady in race 5 is the one we like best, drawn 3 in midfield off a soft tempo at $3.10. Around her there’s value scattered right through, with most of our tips sitting between $4 and $7.

Forecast for Mornington, Victoria · WeatherAPI.com · captured 10:02am Mon 8 Jun
Race 1
1200m · 98.7 Hcp · 10 runners
5. Nitro Sonic $4.60
Barrier 3 · Off Pace · Soft pace
#5 Nitro Sonic comes off a win and lands gate 3 with the cross-over nose band on. The favourite has to do the work in front from gate 6 on a Heavy 8, and $2.90 is short for that job. Nitro Sonic settles off them, has a late kick when he winds up, and gets the inside run. At $4.60, I’m with him.
Race 2
1200m · Mdn Plate · 10 runners
8. Alphabet $5.00
Barrier 9 · Off Midfield · Soft pace
Where’s the value in race 2? #8 Alphabet at $5. Second up off a second for the Freedmans, Thornton stays on. The fav has only two runs in and has to lead on a Heavy 8 at $3.20, no gimme. Alphabet knows how to finish off late from midfield. I like him at the bigger price.
Race 3
1000m · Hcp (Bm66) · 12 runners
13. Artbeat $5.00
Barrier 6 · Off Pace · Genuine pace
Tongue tie on, off a win, and genuine speed up front. #13 Artbeat at $5 runs over the top of them while the fav has to push from gate 10 on a heavy track. On him.
Race 4
1000m · Hcp (Bm64) · 11 runners
4. Meisho $7.50
Barrier 5 · Leader · Hot pace
Pass on the fav. First-up at $5 in a hot 1000m sprint on a Heavy 8 is no thanks. #4 Meisho won last start, lands gate 5, the ear muffs go on to settle him pre-race, and Jackson Radley rides. Take $7.50.
Race 5Best Bet
1200m · Hcp (Bm78) · 9 runners
5. Delicate Lady $3.10
Barrier 3 · Midfield · Soft pace
#5 Delicate Lady at $3.10 is the one I want. Second up after running second last start, gate 3, tongue tie on, and Mott rides. The danger comes from gate 7 with the same midfield job. Easy.
Race 6
1600m · Hcp (Bm66) · 11 runners
7. The Devil In Her $5.50
Barrier 3 · Off Midfield · Genuine pace
Payne trains, Egan rides #7 The Devil In Her at $5.50. Gate 3, settles handy off the speed, and there’s genuine pace up front to set it up. I’m with her.
Race 7
2000m · Hcp (Bm74) · 12 runners
8. Almairac $4.40
Barrier 9 · Midfield · Soft pace
Same shape as the fav, better gate, bigger price. #8 Almairac at $4.40 from gate 9 is who I want over Amleto from gate 12. Have him.
Race 8
1200m · Hcp (Bm70) · 11 runners
11. Brandjam $5.50
Barrier 9 · Leader · Soft pace
#11 Brandjam leads them up with no genuine speed against him, winkers on, and placed in five of his last five. At $5.50, sticking with him.
