Racing comes back to some sold Monday racecourses off the back of a belter $12.7 million day at Randwick racecourse that is highlighted by the $5 million Queen Elizabeth Stakes and on top of that we had great support cards at Bendigo racecourse and Doomben racecourse. We now come back to Albury racecourse and the Armidale racecourse. In this article we focus on our best bet and best outside chance of the day across the two cards. There are also the best racing promotions across our Aussie horse racing betting sites outlined in this article. 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 Monday!
Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 15/04/24
Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Albury - R7 - #3 - Snap Book
One of the better bets of the day here at Albury for the Scott camp who go very well at this course. This particular guy has had two runs back from a spell and has gone well in both of his runs back and now looks set to peak here. He was four weeks between runs when last stepping out at this course at the end of last month where he was held up near the turn but then powered away to finish the best of the race when beating all but the winner there. Third up now, draws a good gate, good jockey and hard fit I think he wins this.

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: Armidale - R6 - #11 - Cotton Sox
Cotton Sox rates highly here for the Grills stable off the back of just three runs to kick the career off but they have all been full of merit and in an open race I am keen to have something on him at decent odds. He returned from a 17 week spell at Moree at the beginning of this month when coming off heels in the straight and finishing by the far the best in the field to win very well there, clocking some decent splits in the process despite not beating all that much in terms of quality. I think that he will only be further improved off the back of that return to racing and shapes up well here at a price.

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.
