Best Roughie: Jennilala #3 Moonee Valley R7

Jennilala is first-up on Saturday. Has a positive first-up record in its career. Last race at Caulfield, Jennilala was right up there in the finish, just placing second. He showed some speed and battled on fairly well. In this race, I think it's got another suitable draw, which should make it tough to beat. In its last start, Jennilala (54kg) and ended up placing 2nd, just behind Captain Envious (56.5kg) over 2000m, and was right up there. That should be a good form guide for this race and I think it could easily get the win this time. Previously, 6th of 17 at Rosehill Open on March 16, 2024, over 1500m. Loves this track, but is yet to finish outside the top 3.

Stats and Insights

Randwick is a very wide track with a good run-in that makes it one of the fairest tracks around. It’s hard to say backmarkers are advantaged, but they are the closest thing to advantaged at Randwick Racecourse.

At the Moonee Valley track, the #3 barrier has the most successful win percentage since 2017.

The first 3-4 races in most meetings are called "Maidens" and these races are usually risky and unpredictable. This is because the runners are usually making their debut or have only had a few starts. So it's advisable to stay from these races unless you have a good bankroll.

Best Racing Promotions

If you’re looking to take your betting to another level, racing promotions could be the answer. Why? Simply put promos and offers can offer ways to increase your profit from certain bets, as long as you pick the right ones. One site I like this week is BoomBet for all your racing betting needs.

At BoomBet, you’ll find plenty of racing promos. For example, they offer daily race returns for any race in Australia or overseas.

Along with competitive odds, a decent mobile app, boosted odds, and more, the betting experience is a fun one at this site.

It’s important to know that promotions can change very quickly so it’s always advisable to get in early and take full advantage of the betting opportunities. We have plenty of tips and best bets this week around Aussie racecourses, so get on board and enjoy the ride!
