Best Bets of the Day

OnlyRacing has you covered for Tuesday horse racing action at Ballarat Synthetic and Newcastle. We have your best bet of the day as well as a cheeky roughie. Trevenson has caught my eye in Race 2 at Ballarat Synthetic. I also like the look of Malabarin Race 7 at Newcastle. The track conditions should be nice for racing on Tuesday with a good 3 rating at the moment. At Newcastle, the track is rated a soft 6 at this stage so look for runners that like to run on a soft track. Let's get into it!

Best Tip: Trevenson #3 Ballarat Synthetic R2

Ready to hit peak form now. Came 2nd last start at Ballarat Synthetic with John Allen in the saddle. Previously, 3rd of 8 at Bendigo Mdn on June 4, 2024 over 1100m. John Allen has already placed twice in 2 runs, so I think this combo is definitely due for a win, which could be this Tuesday. Likes running at Ballarat Synthetic, among the dangers for sure. In winning form, don't look past it. Good odds at either PlayUp, ChaseBet or Questbet.

Best Roughie: Malabar #7 Newcastle R7

Previously, it finished 6th of 10 at Randwick in a Barrier Trial-Open on June 28, 2024 over 1200m, 4.4 lengths behind With Your Blessing. Before that, 4th of 9 at Rosehill Barrier Trial-Open on June 11, 2024 over 900m. Should enjoy the distance (1400m), has won before over this trip. 1st up record is quite good too, having placed twice in 4 starts. Also, doesn't mind soft conditions as it's won twice before in 6 career starts. Conditions at Newcastle should be perfect on Tuesday. Big odds to have a punt each-way.

Stats and Insights

Newcastle is a spacious and flat track with a 400m straight that gives almost all barriers an equal chance to run on.
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.

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.

Hi, I'm Matt and I've been writing about sports and racing since 2016. Over the years, I've provided betting tips for some of the top companies such as Sportsbet, William Hill, PlayUp and BlueBet.
