Sunday racing can be an unpredictable vocation for punters but this weekend at Canberra, we're chasing down some of the very best bets available to punters.

All of the races on the card should stem drama and OnlyRacing are on hand, to keep all players fully informed.

Jacob's Ladder - Race 4 - Canberra

A fascinating maiden plate awaits here at Canberra and Jacob's Ladder looks well set to finally land its first win.

This horse has placed in both of its career outings so far, looking impressive in both and it should be alot bolder for the experience.

Keep an eye on Marais as the markets develop but Jacob's Ladder is our pick to land here.

Gear Up - Race 7 - Canberra

The 7th race on the card here at Canberra is the pick of the bunch, with heaps of horses in contention who could land a big win.

Gear Up is a stellar Irish flyer, who continues to look the part from the Neasham yard and who returns to action after a lengthy lay off.

Whether it can land immediately after returning to action remains to be seen but Gear Up has the credentials to be not far away here.
