Today’s Best Bets

For today, Thursday, March 4, I have found three runners that really stand out from the crowd. I’ve gone through some of the biggest racecards in Australia, and these are the runners you want to be on.

Quick Analysis:

With just 55.5kg on her back, it’s hard for me to go past Tow The Line, who comes into this one as the favourite. She pumped in a nice performance last time out, finishing third at Townsville while going around with odds of $71. Yes, $71! She is on the short six-day backup and is good enough to put all her rivals away here.

Quick Analysis:

Ken'ker snagged a win last time out, in which he led all the way in. He draws the rails in this one, so we could very well see another performance like the one we just saw. He carries the top weight, but is reduced nicely thanks to apprentice jockey Nicholas Hyde. There’s a lot to like, and I think the odds are still decent enough as well.

Grafton - Race 6, 6:10 PM

Top Pick: 

5. Poseidon's Son

Best Odds Available:

NZ$3.00 with Ivibet

Quick Analysis:

The market has its eye on two different runners for this one, but I think Poseidon's Son has the edge over the other favourite, Immortality. The 5YO is looking for a trifecta of wins after winning at both Grafton and Lismore. Both races were around the same distance, and he is another that gets weight relief thanks to apprentice jockey Liberty Smyth.

Stats and Insights

  • Caffettiera returns from a short break with a solid trial under her belt and profiles strongly fresh. She can make an immediate impact in Race 4 at Pakenham.
  • Peter Gunn resumes after a long break with a trial win to his name and looks well prepared for this return. He can make a winning comeback in Race 5 at Pinjarra.
  • Stay Silent brings solid recent form and comes from a leading stable that excels in races like this. He looks the one to beat in Race 7 at Pakenham.
