Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Growing Empire #1 Flemington R4
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 Caulfield, it showed us exactly what he's made of. With Mark Zahra in the saddle, it's a force to be reckoned with and could very well take the win again. Before that, Growing Empire finished first at Morphettville in an Open on April 27, 2024, over 1200m. Racing well at the moment, so I like its chances.

Best Roughie: Whinchat #15 Rosehill R9
Whinchat took down Kintyre over 1207m at Warwick Farm in its last run. I think that was an impressive win, so I'm backing Whinchat to get the win on Saturday, especially from barrier 6 with Jay Ford in the saddle. Before that, Whinchat finished first at Rosehill in a Barrier Trial-Open on August 6, 2024, over 1030m. Decent win rate in its career. Decent top 3 record at the track, should be right up there in the finish. First-up form looks good with 2 wins in 4 starts.

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.
- It has been noted by stewards and sharp punters recently that being on pace and close to the rail has been the best place/places to be at Rosehill in recent times, a track that is known to change every couple months in terms of bias so take good note of that.
- 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.
