Best Bets of the Day

Follow along with me for the best free horse racing tips on race day! Saturday's racing action takes us to Flemington and Randwick and I have found a best bet for you at betting sites in Australia. There's also a juicy roughie to get on board. I like the look of Press Down at Flemington in Race 7. I also like the look of With Your Blessingin Race 9 at Randwick. The track is rated a good 5 for racing at Flemington on Saturday. There's been a lot of rain around the track recently so the track is a heavy 9 at the moment. Let's get into it!

Best Tip: Press Down #7 Flemington R7

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 Swan Hill, he showed us exactly what he's made of. With Neil Farley in the saddle, he's a force to be reckoned with and could very well take the win again. Before that, Press Down finished first at Murray Bridge Gh in a BM82 on May 25, 2024 over 1200m. Should enjoy the distance (1200m). Fourth-up should not be a problem for this horse. In winning form, don't look past it.

Best Roughie: With Your Blessing #7 Randwick R9

Last start, beat Colour Sergeant at Randwick over 1200m at the starting price of . That was a good win and I like With Your Blessing on Saturday too, especially with Chad Schofield on board from barrier 8. Before that, With Your Blessing finished first at Randwick in a Open on June 8, 2024 over 1100m. Has good career stats when it's third-up.

Stats and Insights

  • Flemington's long straight track can sometimes favour horses drawn towards the inside or outside of the track, depending on the rail position and prevailing track conditions. Betting on horses that suit the current track bias can be advantageous.
  • 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.
  • Randwick is a very wide track with a good run-in that makes it one of the fairest tracks around. It’s hard to say backmarkers are advantaged, but they are the closest thing to advantaged at Randwick Racecourse.

Best Racing 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.
