Best Bets of the Day

OnlyRacing.com.au has you covered for Friday horse racing action at Tamworth and Geelong. We have your best bet of the day as well as a cheeky roughie. Cool Storm has caught my eye in Race 9 at Tamworth. Also, for my roughie bet, I've got my eye on All So Clear in Race 6 at Geelong. The track is rated a good 5 for racing at Tamworth on Friday. At Geelong, the track conditions should be nice for race day, its a good 4 rating at the moment. Let's get into it!

Best Tip: Cool Storm #8 Tamworth R9

First-up on Friday. Last time out, it had a perfect run and won, looking much fitter. This horse knows how to bring the heat and last time out at Doomben, he showed us exactly what he's made of. With Matthew Bennett in the saddle, he's a force to be reckoned with and could very well take the win again. Before that, Cool Storm finished first at Coffs Harbour in a Mdn on December 29, 2023 over 810m. Has had success before in dry conditions so the track conditions should suit. Previous success running first-up in it's career and should enjoy the racing conditions at Tamworth. Good odds at either PlayUp, Chasebet or Questbet.

Best Roughie: All So Clear #6 Geelong R6

Last start, finished 3rd of 10 at Sale in a BM64 over 1717m, just 3.7 lengths behind Enxuto (60.5kg) carrying 60.5kg at $2.60. Previously, 2nd of 10 at Ballarat BM64 on May 12, 2024 over 1600m. In good form at the moment, so hopefully that continues. Daniel Stackhouse seems to love riding with 5 placings in 7 runs, that includes 2 wins.

Stats and Insights

  • Tamworth Racecourse is a very circular track and as such it is very important to find the fence as you will continue to lose lengths as each distance features at least two turns on the course.
  • The Geelong course proper is known as a track that gives every horse its chance as the circumference is 2043 metres with a straight distance of 400 metres.
  • 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 Horse Racing Betting Sites

Betting Sites Bonuses and Promotions

Horse racing promotions have historically been a great way for bettors to gain an advantage over betting sites by providing an edge to your bet. For racing specifically these promotions can be extensive in providing you some form of ‘outs’ to your bet that you wouldn’t normally receive.

Palmerbet, in recent weeks, has stood out to me across the Aussie betting sites that offer racing promotions and is one that I would take a look at, especially for big race days that feature Group 1 races and Saturday’s in general. 

On our site we have a Palmerbet Review that goes in depth into the bookmaker as well as  a Vicbet and Punterspal Review amongst some of the other top bookmakers that frequently have promotions.

Promotions tend to change regularly, so it is important to sign up to these betting sites to stay updated on the latest applicable promotions.
