On Tuesday, the racing continues with some expected quality races at Grafton and Kyneton. I like the look of Khamis at Grafton in Race 7. Meanwhile, my roughie of the day is Armalite at Kyneton in Race 8. Let's get into it!
Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets 22/10/24

Best Bets of the Day
Best Tip: Khamis #14 Grafton R7
In its first race on October 1 at Grafton, he surged to the front, winning by 5.8 lengths. He carried 53.5kg and managed to beat Preachabull (57kg), which was quite impressive, especially on debut. I think this is another race that should suit Khamis. She should enjoy a good run from Barrier 8 and won at this track last time out.
Best Roughie: Armalite #1 Kyneton R8
Just finished behind the places in its last start, finishing 4th out of 9 on March 17. So I think it can improve after that run and should be fitter here. Previously, 1st of 12 at Yarra Glen RST58 on February 10, 2024 over 1500m. Kyneton stats are excellent, having not finished outside the top 3 yet. Loves the distance and I hope that continues over the 1469m, has won 3 of 6 career starts. Also, enjoys running first-up as Armalite has won twice in his career.
Stats and Insights
- Grafton has a 400m straight with the home turn being a long sweeping turn which gives runners time to position themselves for big runs in the straight.
- 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.
- Look out for jockey Blake Shinn in Race 3 and 4 at Kyneton as he’ll be riding back to back favourites.

It was another epic week of racing last week with some big upsets in the Group 1 races on Saturday. The highlights were Duke De Sessa took out the Caulfield Cup on the weekend and Bella Nipotina won a nail-biter in The Everest. This Saturday is Cox Plate day at Moonee Valley Racecourse and Prognosis is the current favourite.
There are plenty of ways to enjoy the action, such as live streaming and of course, horse racing promotions. One site that I like this week is Dabble, which is the only exclusive social betting app in Australia. Some things that I think you will enjoy are bet boosts for all races, including the Cox Plate. So you can boost the odds of your favourite runner. They also provide the Sky Racing live stream so you can watch the action from anywhere with an internet connection.
Betting on the races is truly unique at Dabble, as it allows you to copy other punters or get paid if someone copies your bet. Along with fast withdrawals, same race multi, full form guides, stats and a full form guide, betting with Dabble should be a fun experience. Download their app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store today!
