Best Bets of the Day

OnlyRacing has you covered for Saturday horse racing action at Caulfield and Randwick. We have your best bet of the day as well as a cheeky roughie. I'm heading to Caulfield for my best bet of the day in Race 8. Meanwhile, my roughie of the day is Aramco at Randwick in Race 9. The track conditions at Caulfield are looking decent for racing, its a soft 7 so its recommended to bet on runners that like soft conditions. The Randwick is looking heavy for race day on Saturday so keep that in mind. Let's get into it!

Best Tip: Recommendation #2 Caulfield R8

Recommendation is first-up on Saturday. Has a positive first-up record in its career. Last start, Recommendation was 6th of 12 at Yarra Glen on March 29 over 1200m on a good track, 1.0 lengths behind Savannah Cloud (55.5kg) with 56.5kg at $4.60. But it should improve here. Previously, 6th of 15 at Caulfield Open on February 24, 2024 over 1100m. Good stats at the distance too, bodes well for Saturday. Plenty of winning form on wet tracks.

Best Roughie: Aramco #11 Randwick R9

Last time this horse hit the track, Aramco put in a better effort, and that's something to take note of for Saturday's race. With Sam Clipperton riding, you know that Aramco has got a jockey who can handle business. Previously, 4th of 8 at Rosehill Barrier Trial-Open on June 21, 2024 over 900m. Very good career record in second-up situations.

Stats and Insights

  • Caulfield Racecourse is a tighter track than Flemington and suits on pacers more until distances past 1600m.
  • 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

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.
