Plenty of racing right across Australia today, so if you’re thinking about having a bet today, you’ve got heaps of options! The BettingTop10 experts have done some digging to find their best horse racing betting tips, just for you.

Today’s Best Bets

After going through some of the bigger races today, I’ve found a couple of runners that look to be worth your time. I’ve also included the odds for each best bet across three bookmakers, so you can bag more bang for your buck.

Canterbury - Race 3, 4 PM

Top Pick: 

4. Lady Invictus

Recommended Bet Type:

Win

Best Odds Available:

NZ$3.25 with 22Bet

Quick Analysis:

Kicking off the day in Canterbury with Lady Invictus. In a field of just seven, I think the filly can get one over the favourite here. She broke her maiden first up with a barrier-to-finishing post win, and last time out she finished third, just 0.81L off the pace. That was in a BM72, and she drops back down to a BM64, which looks to be a slightly easier assignment.

Morphettville - Race 5, 5 PM

Top Pick:

Best Odds Available:

NZ$2.50 with 20Bet

Quick Analysis:

Justaclaim was competing in a more difficult race last time out, and still did well enough. This race looks a lot easier, and if he’s okay on the quick turnaround, he can get the job done. Barrier one is a massive tick as well, so he’ll do no work and then get let down when the time is right. Regular rider Anna Jordsjo is in the saddle once again as well.

Sandown Lakeside - Race 6, 5:20 PM

Top Pick: 

5. Queen Peta

Recommended Bet Type:

Win

winner

Best Odds Available:

NZ$1.90 with Ivibet

Quick Analysis:

Queen Peta doesn’t exactly scream value at $1.90, but I really can’t see anyone else challenging the filly. So, she could be one to add to wider exotics or a multi. The 3YO is one from one in her career so far, and that win on debut was comprehensive, winning by 3.75L. Jordan Childs saddles up once again, and the barrier draw isn’t the worst.

Stats and Insights

  • Golden Eyes brings winning form into this after back-to-back victories at Doomben and the Sunshine Coast. She looks ideally placed to complete the hat-trick in Race 4 at Ipswich.
  • Moshulu Spirit is another chasing a hat-trick after consecutive wins at Doomben and the Sunshine Coast. He looks extremely hard to beat in Race 6 at the Sunshine Coast.
  • Western Miss has made an impressive start to her career and comes off a maiden win at Bunbury. She looks capable of taking the next step in Race 8 at Belmont.
