Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 26/01/24
Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Warwick Farm - R6 - #2 - Naval College
Naval College has to rate highly here for Annabel Neasham and has rarely put a foot wrong in her twelve career starts with five wins and five placings and comes here chasing a hat trick after winning two in a row at Randwick and Rosehill and looks ready to step out to this trip after winning very sharply at Rosehill over the 2000m last time out. I think he rates very highly here and is one of the better bets on the program.

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: Caulfield - R8 - #11 - Jenny Jerome
Jenny Jerome can hit back hard here after having excuses last time out and generally goes very well third up with two wins in three third up runs. He pulled up Lame last time out at Flemington but before then he powered home into fourth in an impressive first up effort. I think he’s racing better than it reads on paper and will be strong here third up.

Stats and Insights
- Warwick Farm track bias skews towards mid barriers and outside runners on distances 1200m+
- Caulfield Racecourse is a tighter track than Flemington and suits on pacers more until distances past 1600m.
- Maher and Eustace are the top trainers at Caulfield and send a heap of runners to the course tomorrow so look out for the ones I have outlined in my free horse racing tips
Best Racing Promotions
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.
I am an avid horse racing enthusiast and punter. Growing up in Randwick, I have been surrounded by racing through stories from the elderly’s past endeavours to the racecourse and owners that are friends of the family. I am also a data-scientist and am fascinated and intrigued by the algorithmic approach to form. I’ve has become more involved with racing over the past few years due to simultaneously delving deeper into the sport and learning how to apply a data driven approach to punting. Beyond Racing, I am an avid NRL fan and MMA fan, the latter of which I have largely applied the same philosophy of methodical, data driven punting towards and found solid success in the MMA space and I continue to track and improve my strategies.
