Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 07/12/24
Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Shangri La Spring #9 Rosehill R5
Gai Waterhouse presents Shangri La Spring and it’s looking for a third straight win at Rosehill on Saturday afternoon. Last start won at Hawkesbury over 1400m and previously won at Kembla Grange over 1200m. Both wins have been on good tracks and Rosehill should be in similar conditions. In great form and hasn’t let punters down yet, let’s hope that continues.
Best Roughie: Sir Atlas #14 Ballarat R10
Sir Atlas returns from a spell and I like the look of his first-up record. He has 2 wins in 3 career starts when he’s fresh, so he should be able to continue the trend on Saturday. He’s won at this track before too and the distance of 1400m. Fred W Kersley is back in the saddle and has won before. Nice odds for an each-way bet.
Stats and Insights
- At Ballarat, runners outside of around the ten suffer at least a length’s advantage due to the uniquely challenging nature of the straight.
- R5 Rosehill - Shangri La Spring has won 50% of his career starts. In his career, Shangri La Spring has placed in 100% of races, so he’s been a safe bet for punters.
- R10 Ballarat - In his career, Sir Atlas has placed in 62.5% of races and has won 2 of 3 starts when he has been first-up before.
Betting Sites Bonuses and Promotions
The Group 1 races 2024 continue this Saturday with some key races at Randwick in NSW and Ascot, WA. The Ingham takes place at Randwick Racecourse on Saturday over 1600m and there is 2 million in prize money up for grabs. Meanwhile, the Northerly Stakes is the feature race of the day at Ascot.
For the horse racing betting action this week, I think Midasbet is worth checking out. They have some impressive features for racing, in my experience. This includes such things as a daily odds boost, promotions and mobile apps for popular devices. I think the interface is easy to follow and designed for getting your bet on quickly, which is always nice when the next race is just about to jump.
They also have a rewards program, which is truly unique when it comes to horse racing betting sites in Australia. There aren’t many sites that offer this, so I think you’ll enjoy it. For example, if you earn 200 points, you’ll get a $1 bonus bet. You can get access to betting sites bonuses throughout the racing calendar for the key races, how good is that!
