Best Bets of the Day

We come off the back of massive Group 1 races with our free horse racing tips going well this past Saturday, having one of our group 1 race tips come in and a bunch of our other tips win across the three racecourses that we posted tips for. I am keen to keep the momentum rolling this Sunday and have run through the cards at Sandown Hillside racecourse and the Sunshine Coast racecourse and picked out another best bet and best outside chance of the day. In addition to the tips I have outlined below there is a short section on the best promotions going around across the horse racing betting sites and I think it is worth checking out as it is worthwhile to try to get an edge on the bookies as best you can. There are some further helpful track insights after both the aforementioned sections to assist you with your own horse racing betting. Follow me below for another great Sunday of racing!

Best Tip: Sunshine Coast - R5 - #5 - Paris Avenue

Paris Avenue comes into this race fifth up but looking like a very good thing in this field and also at a nice price. I think that he shapes up well here and at a decent quote of around $4.00 across the aussie betting sites. He came off the back of a long spell and went very close to a win in his first two runs where he placed runner up on the bounce at Doomben and Eagle Farm before coming to Ipswich last time out where he raced over the 1350m, sitting back and launching over the top of them late to claim the race inside the last 100m. He didn’t beat the strongest field there but the time and style in which he did it has to have him be respected for this assignment. He’s had a Doomben trial since which should carry him in very good steed for this and meets another beatable field now.

*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: Sandown Hillside - R4 - #5 - Batrana

Batrana shapes up very well in this field at what looks like a great price. The McEvoy product has only had the two career starts thus far but has been very impressive in both and now has earnt his crack in town. The debut came at Geelong over the 1200m at the end of July where he weaved a path and managed to squeeze a gap to claim the race at the 300m and fend them all off from there. He then last stepped out at Seymour over the same distance three weeks between runs where he chased hard all run and could have taken that race out but was just swamped late and couldn’t get clear air to find the line in the last 300m. That last run was also off of a little break and he now has been turned around in less than two weeks, the intent looks there and he should be approaching his peak third up here. Keen.

Stats and Insights

  • 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.
  • Sandown Hillside has a dip in the course at around the 450m mark by the rail. As such it suits horses that make their runs away from the inside, enabling them to avoid the dip at the 450m mark.
  • Sandown Hillside allows for runners to come on from wider and doesn’t have the same shootout effect as the Lakeside course.

Best Racing Promotions

Horse racing betting is always further advantaged for the punter via promotions which assist punters in getting an edge over betting sites. For racing these promotions are often extensive and frequent across the aussie betting apps and provide you more ‘outs’ to your bet that you wouldn’t normally be afforded.

Punterspal has stuck out to me in the last little while amongst the Aussie betting sites that offer horse racing promotions and is one that I would consider signing up to. As we are in full swing for the Group 1 races, Saturday’s become very useful to take advantage of the heightened promotions during the period.

On our website we have a Punterspal review that goes in depth into the bookmaker and their advantages and disadvantages as well as a Vicbet  and Palmerbet review which are bookmakers I also favour in terms of their promotions.

Promotions do tend to change frequently amongst the Aussie betting sites so be sure to check onlyracing.com.au to stay updated on the latest promotions.
