Best Bets of the Day

We come off the back of a frustrating Thursday in horse racing betting with our best bet being scratched and best outside chance doing nothing but I am keen to hit back hard here and have gone through the cards at the Sunshine Coast racecourse and Cranbourne racecourse and posted full length free horse racing tips for each and also have an exotics tips article with three exotics bets across the two tracks as we look to hit some more lucrative bets. As usual, in this article I have picked out an overall best bet and best outside chance of the day across the racecourses as well as well as where you can get the best odds across our horse betting sites and then also outlined our best promotions across the aussie betting sites. In the final part of the article you should find some helpful track insights for both the racecourses which should assist your horse racing betting. Follow me below for another great day of racing this Friday!

Best Tip: Sunshine Coast - R4 - #14 - Javaja

I don’t see any reason to jump off of Stephanie Kendrick’s Javaja if he can overcome second up syndrome and I am keen to see how he fairs here. He debuted at this track a few weeks ago where the market had him to go well as an odds on favourite and after setting fifth on the rail and being held up whilst improving he just kept finding the line to eventually run the leader down inside the last 100m in a very bold debut effort. He looks to be a progressive horse.

BEST OF THREE TOTES

*The Best Tote bet type pays bettors the highest dividend declared by the three national totes. The VIC TAB, NSW TAB and UBet. This likely means that there aren't fixed odds available at the time of writing this on that bookmaker and there likely will be.

Best Roughie: Cranbourne - R9 - #1 - Our Boy Bryan

Our Boy Bryan has to lug the big weight here but I am tempted to say that might not be enough to stop him here. He came off of a six week break from racing last time out at this track over the 1200m under the same weight with Tatum Bull on where he got going late in the piece and really let down to place third there, chasing very well from out wide. He now gets the experienced Mertens on board and maps for a much softer run and this race isn’t overly strong.

Stats and Insights

  • Stephanie Kendrick sends a handful of very smart looking horses to the Sunshine Coast tomorrow, I have outlined at least one of them in each of the races I am tipping so watch for those.
  • Sunshine Coast has open angled bends which give back markers a good opportunity to come from behind and win
  • At Sunshine Coast racecourse Barrier draws are of least importance at the 1300 and 1400 metre

Best Racing Promotions

Horse racing betting is always further advantaged for the punter via promotions which assist punters in getting an edge over betting sites. For racing these promotions are often extensive and frequent across the aussie betting apps and provide you more ‘outs’ to your bet that you wouldn’t normally be afforded.

Punterspal has stuck out to me in the last little while amongst the Aussie betting sites that offer horse racing promotions and is one that I would consider signing up to. As we are in full swing for the Group 1 races, Saturday’s become very useful to take advantage of the heightened promotions during the period.

On our website we have a Punterspal review that goes in depth into the bookmaker and their advantages and disadvantages as well as a Vicbet  and Palmerbet review which are bookmakers I also favour in terms of their promotions.

Promotions do tend to change frequently amongst the Aussie betting sites so be sure to check onlyracing.com.au to stay updated on the latest promotions.
