Mildura Racing Tips for October 6 – Share The Music set to make it two from two

Here are our best bets from the meeting, which also feature in our Tuesday tips.

Ted Percy can go close in the opener at Mildura. The four-year-old has had just two career starts, copping a check at the 200m on debut at Mildura over 1000m before finishing fifth. He again ran into traffic at his most recent start, which came at his home track of Swan Hill on September 22 when placing third behind So Star. Without the interference, he probably could have picked up that race. The Nathan Hobson-trained gelding comes into this with those two runs under his belt and produced the best last-start benchmark figure of any runner in this field with his latest effort. He draws wide in barrier 10, but with any luck finding a spot early on, he can chalk up his first win at a bit of a price.

Share The Music can just about make it two wins from as many career starts when he lines up in the final race of the day. The four-year-old made his debut on the Ballarat Synthetic back on August 31, settling towards the rear of the eight-runner field before producing a nice finishing burst to reel them in over 1000m. The son of Overshare should be suited by the rise to 1200m and will likely settle worse than midfield from the barrier. The tempo looks even enough for him to launch late, while the Taige Weir-trained galloper will be ridden by Will Gordon. That combination strikes at 21%, providing a 16% profit on turnover for punters.
