Saturday Horse Racing Tips & Best Bets [July 6, 2024]
Check out our tips and best bets for Saturday’s racing around the country, including meetings at Flemington, Randwick, Sunshine Coast, Belmont and Gawler.
BEST BETS
Flemington Race 6 No.4 Steel Run
Steel Run (4) drew poorly here last time and just had too much to do in the straight. It was a good run in defeat and you’d expect Brown will have him in a much better position in this from barrier four. Debuting over 1600m suggests Mick Kent sees him as a real stayer.
Randwick Race 6 No.2 Mogo Magic
Mogo Magic (2) can turn the tables on Jedibeel (1). Gets a weight swing on that horse, drawn much better and peaks third-up into the campaign. Leads and wins.
BEST VALUE
Flemington Race 5 No.8 In Her Stride
This is very tough but In Her Stride (8) might be over the odds off a little break. She flies when fresh and was really consistent across her whole last preparation. She beat Brazen Lady over this trip last start and that horse is jostling for favouritism in this.
Randwick Race 8 No.5 Essonne
Essonne (5) is the bet here. Much improved effort second-up behind the in form Diamond Diesel. Does her best racing three runs into a campaign, loves the wet conditions and is well treated with only 53kg on her back.
