Warrnambool Horse Racing Tips Thu 20/8/26
$6 for Princess Mess in Race 6 is the reason we’re here, and we keep coming back to it. Heavy 10 at Warrnambool with showers about, so the ground is doing plenty of the work today. She’s drawn 10 in a field of 10 and settles midfield, which normally scares people off. On this sort of going, sitting off a soft speed and getting a clean run late is worth more than a good gate. Colt Forty Five in the 7 at $5.50 is the other one we’re keen on. Two from the card, and that’s plenty.

5. Princess Mess $6.00
Barrier 10 · Midfield · Soft pace
Soft speed in a 1100m on a Heavy 10 is the whole race. #5 Princess Mess has gate 10, which sounds bad, but with no one wanting to lead Billy Egan can push her forward and sit handy instead of getting stuck wide. #2 Moonraker settles even further back at $4.20, and on this ground I don’t want a horse doing that at the short quote. Payne has her ready. $6, on her to win.
Race 7
4:00pm · 1400m · Handicap · 14 runners
6. Colt Forty Five $5.50
Barrier 9 · Midfield · No leader
I’m on #6 Colt Forty Five at $5.50. Two seconds on the bounce says he’s knocking on the door, and Will Gordon gets to settle him midfield instead of fighting for a spot in a 14-horse field. The worry is the Heavy 10 over 1400m. Happy to wear that at the price.
