Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 04/02/24

Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Sale - R4 - #4 - Charming Deel
Charming Deel has had just the one run for the Griffiths and De Kock stable when debuting at Mornington two weeks ago where she jumped awkwardly and was held up between the 400m to 200m before getting clear air late and working home very well in a great debut. I think getting out to the 1200m now, fitter and ready to win I think he will be tough to beat 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: Sunshine Coast - R6 - #4 - Autumn Show
Autumn Show comes into this for Stephanie Kendrick chasing the hat trick here and I think shapes up quite well in this field. He won two back at this course over the 2200m in fine fashion before stepping out three weeks between runs at Ipswich over the same trip and again came from just behind the speed to click up hard and again jet away to win well then. I think hard fit, flying and can go over again here.

Stats and Insights
- Sunshine Coast has open angled bends which give back markers a good opportunity to come from behind and win
- At Sunshine Coast racecourse Barrier draws are of least importance at the 1300 and 1400 metre.
- When racing at Sale Racecourse specifically out of the 1000m and 1200m chutes the course features a long straight followed by a large sweeping turn which means runners that draw outside of barrier 10 are disadvantaged by at least a length

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.
