Terry’s Tips
Everest Day
On Saturday we are on the main track for a nine-event program of racing for Everest Day at Morphettville, coinciding with Caulfield Cup day in Melbourne, and Everest day in Sydney.
The feature race of the day is the third event, the Listed Sportsbet Hill Smith Stakes (1800m) for the three-year-olds.
My Racing.com offsider John Kelton is confident the visitor for trainers Peter Moody and Katherine Coleman, the filly Autumn Rainbow is going to be extremely hard to beat.
Trainer Andrew Gluyas saddles up a two-pronged attack in Tikkamos and Churchill Rose in a race the French Cotton Lodge stable has won the past three years and seven times in total (Leon Macdonald included).

As for my best of the day on Saturday, I am going to make the Phillip Stokes and Tommy Stokes purse destroyer Harmonic Dancer in Race 6, the Peter Elberg Funerals Handicap (1200m).
Value wise, John is giving a good hope to Chartin in Race 4, the M&J Chickens Handicap (1800m) for the Gordon Richards and Damien Moyle yard on a big day for that stable.
At Caulfield, they saddle up Pretty Baby in the Group 1 Stow Storage Thousand Guineas (1600m).
We also wish trainers Jon O’Connor and Jake Stephens all the best with their runners at Caulfield on Saturday.
O’Connor has Neveu in Race 8, the Catanach’s Jewellers Blue Sapphire Stakes (1200m) with jockey Jett Stanley on board, while Stephens has Youworstnightmare running in Race 4, the Quayclean Gothic Stakes (1400m) with jockey Lachlan Neindorf on board.
Value wise at Morphettville, I can entertain Chartin as well in Race 4, the M&J Chickens Handicap (1800m) and also Wiggum in Race 7, the Access Hardware Handicap (1050m) and Champagne Jenni in Race 8, the Adelaide Galvanising Industries Handicap (1600m).
Can’t wait for Saturday at Morphettville, with great weather and fantastic racing in front of us.
Hope to see you all there!
