Cambridge Harness Tips & Preview | Wednesday 24 December

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Cambridge Harness on Wednesday, 24 December. 

Cambridge Harness Race 1
6 S S Guppy

Money has been on each and every time S S Guppy (6) steps out at the races and while a win hasn’t unfolded yet, there’s been potential for it. Finds a pretty winnable race here tonight and even from the wide draw should be right in contention throughout.  
Selections: 6-4-9-8-10

Cambridge Harness Race 2
6 Joe Kennedy

First up for the new barn at Auckland two weeks ago, Joe Kennedy (6) was climbing all over them late with nowhere to go. Has always been a nice trotter in the making and up in the north gets a chance to really build something, starting tonight.  
Selections: 6-4-9-7-8

Cambridge Harness Race 3
3 Princess Of Savoy

A quality filly, who delivered in style last time out, Princess Of Savoy will be a short order favourite to do the same again here too. Not a really strong field, but she should be able to stroll across them and take control of this and not look back. 
Selections: 3-7-2-6-1 

Cambridge R3 – O’CONNOR WARREN INSURANCE F&M MOBILE PACE
Final Race time:

Cambridge Harness Race 4
2 Crippa Max

A beautifully bred debutant from the Purdon Racing barn, Crippa Max (2) has looked like he’s inherited plenty of the family ability in his public runs. Nice draw to use here on debut and if he was to find the front then they might not look back. 
Selections: 2-3-5-6-7 

Cambridge R4 – GARRARDS HORSE AND HOUND 2YO C&G MOBILE PACE

Cambridge Harness Race 5
5 Grace N Elegance

really strong winner here two starts back, not everything went to plan for Grace N Elegance (5) last time and she went to the line a little unlucky. This isn’t that much harder and if she was to land a sweet trip, could have the final say.  
Selections: 5-12-15-8-11 

Cambridge R5 – GAVELHOUSE.COM TROT

Cambridge Harness Race 6
5 Lavender Haze

A first starter from the Herlihy barn with some really tidy trial and workout form under the belt, Lavender Haze (5) looks a strong hope here tonight. Meets an even field and while lacking in experience compared to some others does have plenty of natural ability.  
Selections: 5-2-6-4-3 

Cambridge R6 – DUNSTAN HORSEFEEDS 2YO FILLIES MOBILE PACE
Final Race time:

Cambridge Harness Race 7
3 Waltzing With Miki
Each Way

Nice set up here for Waltzing With Miki (3). Quite a dour pacer who doesn’t mind doing it tough and trying to outlast his rivals. Good draw over some of the key opposition and should be on the speed and making them chase. Can get a good slice.  
Selections: 3-1-12-13-8 

Cambridge R7 – KENNY & JO BAYNES SUPPORTING ZEV & NEITA MBL PCE

Cambridge Harness Race 8
11 Paramount Kiwi

Expect some sharp improvement from the first up run by Paramount Kiwi (11) tonight. That was a very good field too and this looks a little easier so with a run under the belt he can get back on track to reminding everyone how good he is here.  
Selections: 11-12-4-7-9

Cambridge Harness Race 9
8 Blazing Louie

All around the action at the moment, Blazing Louie (8) is close to another win. Racing really well and getting better and better with each start too. A good beginning here and he’s well on the way to being one of the hardest horses to beat.  
Selections: 8-10-9-6-3

Cambridge Harness Race 10
8 Hill Billie Bundy

In a field devoid of a real standout, Hill Billie Bundy (8) looks a strong each way chance here. Racing well at the moment and generally brings very good manners to the races too. Can trot away and find a nice spot and be the horse to beat.  
Selections: 8-5-9-10-13 

Cambridge R10 – CAMBRIDGE RACING AT TAUPO 26TH JANUARY HCP TROT

Cambridge Harness Race 11
5 Tight Lines
Tip of The Day

Nice wee slide back in grade from taking on some pretty smart ones of late for Tight Lines (5) tonight. Has been doing it largely off tricking barrier draws too. Sets up here to roll forward and be on the pace throughout and should prove hard to beat with his class.  
Selections: 5-1-4-13-8

Cambridge Harness Race 12
3 I Can Too

Does nothing wrong each time he comes to the races, I Can Too (3) and while he doesn’t win them in a row, he’s never far away. Slides in here tonight nicely given he has fewer convictions than most of the rivals and he might just get the job done in the last.  
Selections: 3-6-13-2-1
