Racing and Sports finds the best-backed runners in early betting on Wednesday’s meeting at Hawkesbury.

Recife Beach (Race 1) is challenging for favouritism at $3 having shortened more than a point and a half since betting commenced. The Lim Waugh-trained gelding hasn’t been too far away in the city at his past twos starts and is better placed at this level having won in open company at Scone before that.

Jaxim (Race 4) could be worth an each way ticket at $7, a massive eight points shorter than his first quote. The three year-old has only raced once, finishing midfield at Gosford at big odds but the market push suggests he can improve plenty.
