Looking for some free Australian horse racing tips to enjoy this Thursday? OnlyRacing has you covered! I like the look of Reigning King at Wyong in Race 6. I also like the look of Marnooin Race 7 at Warrnambool. The track conditions at Wyong are looking good for racing, the track is a good 4 at this stage. At Warrnambool, the track conditions should be nice for race day, it's a good 4 rating at the moment. Let's get into it!
Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 31/10/24

Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Reigning King #1 Wyong R6
Coming off a tough run at Eagle Farm where Reigning King finished 8th of 11. However, I like the look of this race for him to bounce back. He previously won at Newcastle and at this track. Also, should get a good run from the barrier (3) and 2kg advantage helps too.
Best Roughie: Marnoo #4 Warrnambool R7
I like the look of Marnoo in Race 7 at Warrnambool on Thursday. Previously won at Mildura over 1200m, carrying 61kg. That was a really good win, so I think Marnoo should be tough to beat on Thursday too. Before that, Marnoo finished first at Terang in a BM64 on April 14, 2024, over 1406m. Has a 50% career win rate so it knows how to win. Very good stats when it is racing at this 1400m distance.
Stats and Insights
- The Wyong racecourse is near circular, offering runners with more dynamic run styles and those that handle bendy tracks a big advantage, also gives those close to the rail an advantage in sprints.
- The Warrnambool Race Course is pretty big, with a circumference of 2,100 metres and a 350-metre straight. Its wide, sweeping turns and broad course make for exciting and competitive races that are great to watch.
- The first 3-4 races in most meetings are called "Maidens" and these races are usually risky and unpredictable. This is because the runners are usually making their debut or have only had a few starts. So it's advisable to stay from these races unless you have a good bankroll.
Best Horse Racing Betting Sites
Betting Sites Bonuses and Promotions
Via Sistina won the Cox Plate on the weekend and beat Winx's race record in the process. Despite not nominating for the Melbourne Cup, she has shot into favouritism around horse racing betting sites. The Group 1 races 2024 continue this week, highlighted by Derby Day on Saturday at Flemington Racecourse.
The live horse racing action should be excellent to watch all week and I suggest finding some racing promotions to increase your profit on winning bets. So, I think Winnersbet is worth looking at. They have bonus bets available if your runner finishes 2nd or 3rd in a race. There are also opportunities to boost the odds for all thoroughbred racing.
The fun doesn’t stop there as Winnersbet is one of the only Australian betting sites to offer a rewards program. So, you can earn points every time you bet and get some nice rewards as a result. Along with a quick-loading mobile app, I think this bookie has everything you need to bet on the races.
