Exotic Bets of the Day

The racing action is back on Saturday and I'm here to help you back some winners! Here are some sneaky exotic tips for the top 3 races of the day.

Exacta - Moonee Valley - R10

1st: 6, 14, 15, 12

2nd: 6, 14, 15, 12

Major Share: Tom Madden was on board last run and won over 955m at Moonee Valley. So I think that's a good form guide for Saturday's race and should be tough to beat down the straight.

Apache Song: In its last race on December 13 at Moonee Valley, he surged to the front, winning by 0.1 lengths. He carried 60.5kg and managed to beat Orange Ears (55kg). So, it's definitely in top form right now.

Fission: In its last run, this horse finished 5th of 12 at Ballarat in a BM74 on December 7, 2024 over 1100m, 4.1 lengths behind Don't Hope Do (57kg). But I think it can do a better job here.

General Firepower: Just finished behind the places in its last start, finishing 4th out of 14 on July 13. So I think it can improve after that run and should be fitter here.

Exacta - Randwick - R8

1st: 5, 8, 16, 10

2nd: 5, 8, 16, 10

Saltcoats: Coming off a nice win at Randwick a few weeks ago as a $12 roughie. The extra 200m on Saturday shouldn’t be an issue.

Bullets High: Racing well having placed in 4 of his last 5 races. Comes off a 2nd place at Rosehill in heavy conditions. I think he’ll like the good track on Saturday.

Ring Me Up: Won at Rosehill over 1800m last start and Zac Lloyd is back in the saddle to possibly make it 2 straight.

Soldier Of Rome: Looking for 2 straight wins and should enjoy the inside barrier.

Exacta - Morphettville - R9

1st: 3, 6, 5, 1

2nd: 3, 6, 5, 1

Volcanic Express: Last run, took down Sabermetric (56kg) over 1000m at Murray Bridge Gh (starting price: $2.60). I think that was an impressive win, so I'm backing Volcanic Express to get the win or place on Saturday, especially from barrier 10 with Rochelle Milnes in the saddle.

Kinetic Jewel: I like the form of Kinetic Jewel for Race 9 at Morphettville on Saturday. Won at Morphettville Parks over 1250m on December 7.

Rockstar Meggsy: At Morphettville Parks on December 7, Rockstar Meggsy finished 5th out of 8, while carrying 58kg at $3.50 odds.

Merchant Boss: Races well at this track. Comes off a 2nd and 1st at Morphettville.
