Friday night’s under the lights return to Cranbourne racecourse and Scone racecourse as we look towards big Group 1 races this weekend and I am keen on quite a few betting spots in NSW and VIC across these two tracks. I have thoroughly run through both of the cards and picked out my best betting spots across both of them and posted those in full length free horse racing tips. In addition to those tips there is also an exotics tips article and a daily multibets tips article so follow both of those as we came off a big multi bet win on Monday. As for this article we focus on our overall best bet and best outside chance of the day and 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 Friday!

Best Tip: Scone - R8 - #8 - Belvedere Boys
Belvedere Boys looks like one of the better placed favourites of the meeting tomorrow for Matty Dunn and he is a horse I have plenty of time for after winning three and placing runner up in two from six career starts. He comes off a very sharp win at Rosehill at the end of February over this trip and with Orman aboard combined with being saved for this race I think he will be awfully tough to get past here.

*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: Cranbourne - R3 - #6 - Queen Of Tuscany
Queen Of Tuscany is another horse who is in form and can go on with it here. The Griffiths and De Kock camp have been flying and she looks like one of their more solid reps for the day. She put together a bunch of close placings on the bounce before stepping out at Pakenham 5 weeks between runs last time out and chasing hard to emerge the best in the last 50m of the race. She goes back up in grade for this but looks ready for it.

Stats and Insights
- Stats at Cranbourne show that barriers four to ten are the best at all distances at Cranbourne
- Jimmy Orman is one of the top Jockeys in Victoria and gets just the two rides at Scone tomorrow, I expect at least one of them to feature so watch for both of those runners in the last two races of the day at the course.
- Brett Cavanough is the top trainer at Scone racecourse by a solid margin and has very sharp placed horses at the course tomorrow so watch for all of them.
Best Horse Racing Betting Sites
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.
