Follow along with me for the best free horse racing tips on race day! Wednesday's racing action takes us to Sandown and Canterbury and I have found a best bet for you at betting sites in Australia. There's also a juicy roughie to get on board. La Casona has caught my eye in Race 2 at Sandown. Also, for my roughie bet, I've got my eye on Flying Thinker in Race 4 at Canterbury. The Sandown is looking heavy for race day on Wednesday so keep that in mind. The track conditions at Canterbury are looking good for racing. Let's get into it!

Best Tip: La Casona #3 Sandown R2

He's shown he has the ability to be a serious contender and with Our Queen scratched, La Casona should be tough to beat. Very good record at the track, came 2nd in its last start at Sandown on a heavy track. Should be fairly similar conditions this Wednesday, so I like its chances of getting the win this time. In good form at the moment, so hopefully that continues.

Best Roughie: Flying Thinker #6 Canterbury R4

Last start, beat Equipage (58kg) at Scone over 1200m at the starting price of $4.60. That was a good win and I like Flying Thinker on Wednesday too, especially with Mitchell Bell on board from barrier 3. Before that, Flying Thinker finished first at Newcastle in a Mdn on June 15, 2024 over 1300m. The wet track should pose no problems. Good stats when it's second-up. In winning form, don't look past it.

Stats and Insights

  • Canterbury is a much tighter track than most NSW courses, giving significant advantage to close on pacers and those close to the rail in general. It also favours late rails-in-run horses due to the tight turning nature.
  • 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.
  • Sandown racecourse has two tracks, Hillside and Lakeside. This Wednesday, they'll be racing on the Hillside. The 491-metre straight goes uphill, which is great for horses with a strong finish.
