Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 07/03/25

Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Albertville #3 Moonee Valley R4
The stats and recent performances suggest Albertville is the top betting choice at Moonee Valley. In its third-ever race, Albertville is starting to show signs of adapting to the competition. Last start, Albertville finished in the placings over 1115m at Kyneton on 18/02/2025. Carried 58kg under Jamie Melham, started at $2.40. Track rated good. Albertville, trained by the capable C W McDonald, is sure to be a strong competitor on Friday. Hasn’t cracked this distance yet, but stranger things have happened. Decent career stats, capable of striking again. A perfect draw that will allow him to settle into stride without burning too much energy. On Friday, Jamie Melham will get to ride this one. A strong run between these two will be key. Loves these conditions and has delivered before, a repeat performance is possible.
Best Roughie: Maximillius #1 Moonee Valley R8
For this Friday, I would keep tabs on the price for Maximillius, he should have a good chance. Wasn’t far off last start, finishing in second with a strong performance. Maximillius lined up at Moonee Valley, finishing 2nd over 955m. Backed at $15.00, jumped from barrier 3, and carried 60.5kg under Jamie Mott. Looks well-positioned in the 4 Barrier to take advantage of the race pace. Jockey Daniel Stackhouse is looking sharp ahead of Friday. With their keen eye and strong race judgment, they’ll be a key factor. Maximillius has been under the wing of Michael Jones. Capable at this trip of 1200m. Handles the distance well, boasting 2 wins from 8 runs.
