Group 1 Racing in Adelaide as well as a solid card in Brisbane to go with the usual smorgasbord in Sydney and Melbourne. Check out our Horse Racing Best Bets for Saturday the 6th of May!
Please note – if you choose to follow any of the bets below that the staking is assuming a bank of 100 units.
Morphettville R4 #3 Bassett @ $4.60
Mick Price seems to have unlocked the key to this horse who is flying at the moment. Gunning for his fourth straight win, he’s been freshened up for this and looks the safest play in the race. He’ll position up in the first three or four and gets the gun booking of Damien Oliver.
Suggested bet: 0.75 unit BOB (best of the best)
Morphettville R6 #1 Harlow Gold @ $5 place
She’s a really classy runner that may have just found the wet tracks in Sydney a little bit too testing. I thought she traveled like a very nice horse though and back on top of the ground down in class here is a big plus. Drawing barrier 19 isn’t ideal and she will need a nice ride from Bayliss. Happy to have something on to place.
Suggested bet: 0.5 unit place (50% fixed and 50% Top Tote)
Morphettville R7 #2 Shiedel @ $5
Super consistent mare who’s been freshened and set for an Adelaide assault. She’ll race handy and make her own luck. Most of her rivals will be spotting her a start on the turn and at $5 she looks great value.
Suggested bet: 0.75 unit BOB
Flemington R7 #3 Widgee Turf @ $3.5
Support from the right places fresh and the run was full of merit. Quickly backs-up here into a very winnable race and has drawn to get the perfect run. Little concern on the pilot but still worth a bet.
Suggested bet: 0.75 unit BOB
**Race 6 #3 Madotti is currently $10 and we’ve got her rated $6.50 provided the track is playing fair and the market signals are right. Happy to wait that one out until closer to jump time. If she stays around her price or shortens a bit she’ll likely be a small win bet.
