Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 06/08/24
Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Signal #1 Ballarat Synthetic R5
First-up on Tuesday. Hasn't fallen out of the top three in 4 career starts when it's resuming, so that bodes well for Tuesday. Signal has a very good record at the track too, it's won twice in 3 career starts. Ethan Brown is back in the saddle and is due for a win on board Signal, they've finished 2nd and 3rd in 3 starts thus far. So I think it can get the win in this race.
Best Roughie: Lafilio #7 Gundagai R6
In its last race at Wagga on July 22, it came out on top with a winning margin of 0.8 lengths. It was carrying 59kg and held off Mount Hotham (59kg), which was pretty good to watch at $3.80 odds. So, it's looking in good touch for this race. Before that, Lafilio finished first at Narrandera in a BM66 on July 14, 2024, over 2100m. Loves this track, but is yet to finish outside the top 3. Good stats at the distance too, bodes well for Tuesday. Wet track form reads well too Doesn't mind running fourth-up as Lafilio has proven success when it's in this situation. In winning form, don't look past it.
Stats and Insights
- At Ballarat Synthetic, inside barriers can be an advantage for several distances between 1400 to 2200m.
- 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.
- Ballart Synthetic Race 5 - Signal has a 60% career place rate.
Best Racing Promotions
Horse racing promotions and offers are great for boosting your betting profits so I always recommend looking out for them. Aussie betting sites roll out some unique promotions during the racing season, especially during the Spring Carnival. One of my personal favourites is BetRoyale, which offers same race multi for Thoroughbred racing and other features. Such as mystery bets, blended bets, and first past-the-post payouts. Also, I’ve noticed they can offer higher odds for roughies, which is always nice.
Betting sites and their promos often change, especially around major races or events like the Melbourne Cup or AFL Finals series. Head over to betroyale.com.au to see what's currently on offer. I think you'll find it worthwhile.
During this busy week of racing, I highly recommend BetRoyale. They offer a wide range of betting features, so you can get some of the best odds for racing across Australia. Plus, BetRoyale provides solid racing markets and bet types for racing in Australia or overseas.
