Best Bets of the Day

Racing comes back to Geelong racecourse and Newcastle racecourse this Wednesday for two bumper cards off the back of what was a bit of an all over the place weekend for our free horse racing tips in NSW, VIC and QLD but I am keen to really get the new week going with our first big day of racing. I have thoroughly run through those VIC and NSW cards and posted full length free horse racing tips on our site. In addition to those articles there are also exotics tips articles and a multibets tips page on our site. There are also the best racing promotions across our Aussie horse racing betting sites outlined in this article. 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 Wednesday! 

Best Tip: Geelong - R3 - #4 - Ruakaka Raider

Ruakaka Raider should be winning here at start number three to kick the career off for Cindy Alderson and I think getting out to 1600m third up looks the right kind of move for him. Both of his runs have come at Pakenham, showing good improvement last time out to hit the line very hard and keep coming late when just missing in a flash finish third. He shapes up very well off the back of that hard fit here and out further in trip.

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: Newcastle - R3 - #5 - Body Of Venus

Always respecting Nathan Doyle after the year that he has been having and I think that Body Of Venus is going to be sharp coming back here after alone start at the end of November last year where he didn’t show all that much. However, he’s had two trials to lead him back into racing and the latest was a nice win here where he looked to move well and the stable is flying. Gets in well weighted with Ford aboard as well.

Stats and Insights

  • The Geelong course proper is known as a track that gives every horse its chance as the circumference is 2043 metres with a straight distance of 400 metres.
  • Anthony and Sam Freedman are some of the top trainers in Victoria and they send forward not that many runners tomorrow to Geelong.
  • Newcastle is a spacious and flat track with a 400m straight that gives almost all barriers an equal chance to run on.

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.
