Best Bets of the Day

Big listed racing returns to Randwick racecourse, Sunshine Coast racecourse and Moonee Valley racecourse this Saturday and we have some belter racing upon us as we look back towards the Autumn racing carnivals in our respective States. I am very excited for all of these cards and have extensively run through each and posted full length free horse racing tips on our site. It’s going to be a good day of racing and there is, as usual, also an exotics tips article posted on the site as well. As for his article we focus on another best bet and best outside chance of the day as well as outlined our best promotions across the aussie betting sites. 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 Saturday! 

Best Tip: Moonee Valley - R2 - #4 - Ceerseven

Ceerseven seems like a good betting spot to kick the day off at Moonee Valley. This Mitch Freedman trained runner resumed to racing over the 1400m at Geelong a couple weeks ago where he was posted near last in the run and despite not being a winning chance he was flying home behind a smart horse. With plenty of upside here, market’s all over him but I am still happy to take the ~$2.30 quote we see at the moment.

BEST OF THREE TOTES

*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: Sunshine Coast - R3 - #10 - Dirty Dancing

I understand that this is a bit of step up in competition for Dirty Dancing but you would have to think the market is disrespecting him a bit coming into this at around $14.00 odds and chasing a hat trick here. His last two runs and wins have come at this track and trip and he seems to be building himself into somewhat of a specialist here. I think the quote is too high and he is definite overs here.

Stats and Insights

  • 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
  • Sunshine Coast has open angled bends which give back markers a good opportunity to come from behind and win
  • At Sunshine Coast racecourse Barrier draws are of least importance at the 1300 and 1400 metre.
  • There is a very clear frontrunning bias at Moonee Valley even up until the staying distance of 2000m+, when considering between two selections see where they map to be in the run.

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.
