Today’s Best Bets

There is plenty of racing action on the track for a Monday, and I’ve looked at all the key racecards. After digging into the form guide, there are a few runners that stick out of the crowd and are worthy of a second look.

Quick Analysis:

We’ve got ourselves somewhat of an open field in this one, but it’s hard for me to go past Stern Dispute. The gelding presents a little bit of value as well, currently going around at the $3.80 mark. He broke his maiden last time out, and currently sits with a career record of 2:1-0-1. Draws relatively well, and Andrew Gibbons jumps back into the saddle.

Quick Analysis:

Staying in Tamworth for my next best bet of the day, and I like the look of Pensativa to get the job done as the favourite in Race 6. The mare was at this track and trip last time out, where she finished second behind Taipan Legend. Pensativa was on the second line of betting for that one, and I think she’ll be better for that experience under her belt.

Quick Analysis:

For my last of the day, I’m heading over to Bathurst with Better Bloom in Race 6. In just her third career start, I think she’s good enough to break through for a win. She has been there or thereabouts in her first two runs and comes from the Robert Quinn stable. She draws slightly wide, but does get a weight advantage over most of her rivals. Worth a shot.

Stats and Insights

  • Deluce produced a solid placing when fresh at Nowra and comes from a stable that places them well. He looks ready to go one better in Race 4 at Bathurst.
  • Hello Veneta led throughout for a dominant maiden win at Mount Barker and comes from a stable in form. She can make it back-to-back victories in Race 5 at York.
  • Makwell Smart drops back to non-metro grade and has shown he can perform well when fresh. He looks well placed to strike in Race 7 at York.
