Best Exotic Bets of the Day 31/01/25

Exacta - Moonee Valley - R6

1st: 9, 5, 1, 4

2nd: 9, 5, 1, 4

Ginger Sweet: Racing well without a win, this could be the race. Comes off placing in 3 straight races and also ran 2nd at this track last time out. She is back at the same distance and should enjoy another good run.

Lygon Street Luigi: Last run, it finished 3rd at Moonee Valley over 2040m. Should be right in the thick of things.

Bitcoin: Always seems to be thereabouts and should be right in this race. He’s also won at the distance before and placed at this track last start.

Princess Nefertiti: Princess Nefertiti is coming off a 2nd at Geelong, 3rd at Caulfield and 3rd at the Valley. She has placed in 50% of her career runs at the track and likes the distance.

Exacta - Canterbury - R8

1st: 10, 2, 5, 1

2nd: 10, 2, 5, 1

Bartolf: Didn’t like the heavy track last start at Warwick Farm but this track should be more suitable. He won last year on a good track so he has potential.

Walkin'talkin': I like the form of Walkin'talkin' for Race 8 at Canterbury on Friday. Won at Canterbury over 1250m on January 17.

So Good So Cool: Back at this track after placing 3rd over 1250m. Impressive record at this distance having won 2 of 4 career starts.

Oakfield Duke: Last start, Oakfield Duke was 5th of 7 at Rosehill on January 18 over 1100m on a soft track, 2.9 lengths behind South Of India (57kg) with 57.5kg at $26.00. But it should improve here.

Exacta - Bathurst - R6

1st: 8, 7, 6, 15

2nd: 8, 7, 6, 15

Plaza: Looking for back to back wins and will be at the same distance. Should eat up the soft ground, she loves these conditions.

Magnucat: Resuming on Friday. She has won first-up before and if she jumps well from the tough barrier, she could challenge them.

Capital Mac: Back in class and will be fresh, he hasn’t run a race since mid-2023. He has trialled well and should be dangerous.

Stratified: Coming off a nice win at Gilgandra over 1200m with Kody Nestor in the saddle.
