Today’s Best Bets
No Group 1 racing action today, but there’s still a lot going on! I’ve gone through some of the biggest races of the day and found three runners that have really caught my eye. Before you place your bets, check out my racing tips right here.
Best Odds provided
Ararat - Race 6, 6:15 PM
Top Pick:
1. Aftermath
Recommended Bet Type:
Win
Quick Analysis:
In the 2026 Ararat Gold Cup, Aftermath looks pretty difficult to beat in my eyes. The gelding is shooting for a hat-trick of wins here today after taking out races in St Arnaud and Mortlake. His victory in the Mortlake Cup was particularly impressive, winning by a margin of almost 5L. Linda Meech is back in the saddle, and they’ll have their work cut out for them from barrier nine, but they’re good enough.
Warren - Race 6, 6:40 PM
Top Pick:
1. Micro Mikki
Recommended Bet Type:
Win
Quick Analysis:
Heading over to Warren for the Cotton Cup, and it’s hard to look past the top-rated runner, Micro Mikki. The gelding will have to lug around the top weight, but his impressive career record (20:4-4-4) means he shouldn’t have much problem with that. He has been there or thereabouts so far this prep, and this looks like a very winnable race. Clayton Gallagher is back in the saddle, and barrier two is a kind draw.
Sunshine Coast - Race 6, 7:05 PM
Top Pick:
3. Little Fella
Recommended Bet Type:
Win
Quick Analysis:
Wrapping things up at the Sunshine Coast, and I reckon Little Fella is good enough to topple the favourite in Race 6. The gelding finished second in Doomben first-up last time out, and I’m expecting to see a bit of natural improvement second-up. Apprentice jockey, Jett Newman, is in the saddle once again, and brings a 2kg weight relief with him. The 4YO is one-from-one when second-up as well.
Stats and Insights
- Tiff's Lad returns to non-metro racing and comes from an astute stable. He can take advantage of the class relief and challenge the favourite in Race 4 at York.
- Shamedy comes off a win at Bundarra last start and has recorded two victories and multiple placings this prep. He can continue his strong form in Race 6 at Armidale.
- Addictive Dream comes off a win at Leinster last start and has recorded three victories from her last four starts. She can pop up at decent odds in Race 8 at York.
