Best Bets of the Day
Forrest Gump #7 Scone R1
In the recent outing for Forrest Gump at Kembla Grange, he came in third, not far behind the leaders. Now that he's fitter, he's got a solid chance of finishing in the top three again. I think Winona Costin knows how to handle Forrest Gump too. Previously, 2nd of 7 at Wyong Mdn on August 4, 2024 over 1200m. Good form on soft tracks, placing in 2 starts thus far. So the Scone track should be suitable on Friday.
Best Roughie: Lulo Rose #12 Scone R8
I'm a big fan of Lulo Rose in Race 8 at Scone on Friday. On August 9, won over 1005m at Tuncurry, carrying 57kg. That was nice win, so I believe that Lulo Rose can win on Friday as well. Before that, Lulo Rose finished first at Warwick Farm in a Barrier Trial-Maiden on July 26, 2024 over 818m. Loves the distance and I hope that continues over the 1000m. Rates a terrific each-way play, I think.
Stats and Insights
- Scone racecourse is known for its long home straight of 400 metres.
- Watch out for jockey Winona Costin as she will ride back to back favourites in Race 1 and 2 on Friday at Scone.
- 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
Promotions and offers are always a great way to get an edge at Aussie betting sites. For this week’s racing, I like the look of ChaseBet and their horse racing promos. They have you covered if you’re after money back bonuses this week. So if you’re runner doesn’t finish first, you may be eligible for a bonus back. This usually applies to every race in Australia during this week so get on board!
I also like racing betting at ChaseBet for other reasons. Such as their odds are really competitive. I’ve found they can offer a lot higher odds and that’s always a big plus for a betting site. There is also a price pump feature that can give you even better odds. So you can potentially make more profit in the long term while using this site. Along with same race multi, exotics, a full form guide, speed maps and more, they’re doing a good job for racing punters.
It’s important to take advantage of promos and offers as soon as possible, since they can change very quickly. Daily promos are available now, take up these offers today!
