Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 29/03/24

Racing returns to Cranbourne racecourse and the Yarra Glen racecourse this Friday as we look towards a great weekend of racing we first kick off with Good Friday races at Yarra Glen and Cranbourne that look to have some high level runners at each of the meetings, particularly in the feature race of the day at Yarra Glen, a $500k race over the 1200m and I have thoroughly gone through each of the cards and posted full length free horse racing tips on our site as well as a multi bets tips page and exotics tips page. As for this article we focus on our best bet and best outside chance of the day and in the final part of the article you should find some helpful track insights for both the racecourses which should assist your horse racing betting. Follow me below for another great day of racing this Friday!

Best Tip: Cranbourne - R8 - #2 - Nokhbah

Nokhbah looks like a very progressive horse for the Hayes boys who comes into this third up and ready to fire off the back of two solid runs this time in. He really got going last time out when second up at The Valley where he joined the leaders at the 200m before powering away to just miss the win in second place. He only needs to run up to that effort to be prominent here.

*The Best Tote bet type pays bettors the highest dividend declared by the three national totes. The VIC TAB, NSW TAB and UBet. This likely means that there aren't fixed odds available at the time of writing this on that bookmaker and there likely will be.

Best Roughie: Yarra Glen - R1 - #1 - Projeto

Projeto should be running well here on the quick turnaround after stepping out last Friday at Albury in a strong race over the 900m where he ran on well into third place behind a very sharp horse. The form reads well for this as the winner then would be a very short favourite in this market I’d assume. Go well here at nice odds.

Best Racing Promotions

Promotions have historically been a great way for bettors to gain an advantage over betting sites by providing an edge to your bet. For racing specifically these promotions can be extensive in providing you some form of ‘outs’ to your bet that you wouldn’t normally receive.

Palmerbet, in recent weeks, has stood out to me across the Aussie betting sites that offer racing promotions and is one that I would take a look at, especially for big race days that feature Group 1 races and Saturday’s in general.

On our site we have a Palmerbet Review that goes in depth into the bookmaker as well as a Vicbet and Punterspal Review amongst some of the other top bookmakers that frequently have promotions.

Promotions tend to change regularly, so it is important to sign up to these betting sites to stay updated on the latest applicable promotions.

I am an avid horse racing enthusiast and punter. Growing up in Randwick, I have been surrounded by racing through stories from the elderly’s past endeavours to the racecourse and owners that are friends of the family. I am also a data-scientist and am fascinated and intrigued by the algorithmic approach to form. I’ve has become more involved with racing over the past few years due to simultaneously delving deeper into the sport and learning how to apply a data driven approach to punting. Beyond Racing, I am an avid NRL fan and MMA fan, the latter of which I have largely applied the same philosophy of methodical, data driven punting towards and found solid success in the MMA space and I continue to track and improve my strategies.
