Best Exotic Bets of the Day | 04/01/25

Looking to place exotic bets on Saturday? Only Racing has you covered! We've got 3 exotic tips at the best tracks of the day: Geelong, Randwick and Gold Coast.

1st: 1, 2, 4, 10

2nd: 1, 2, 4, 10

Bellinger: With Jessica Tzaferis on board last start, won at Morphettville Parks (1250m). So hopefully that form continues into Saturday's race. On Saturday, Jaylah Kennedy is in the saddle and knows how to win. Get on board.

Philosopher: Last race, placed 3rd of 11 at Pakenham in a BM74 over 1000m, just 0.9 lengths behind Redoute's Night (55.5kg) carrying 62kg at $6.00.

Luna Cat: In the recent outing for Luna Cat at Caulfield Heath, it came in third, not far behind the leaders. Now that he's fitter, he's got a solid chance of finishing in the top three again. I think Daniel Stackhouse knows how to handle Luna Cat too.

Don't Hope Do: Jordan Childs was on board last run and won over 1100m at Ballarat. So I think that's a good form guide for Saturday's race and should be tough to beat down the straight.

1st: 2, 14, 17, 18

2nd: 2, 14, 17, 18

Unlimited: In its last race, we saw this horse finish 6th of 8 at Canterbury in a BM78 over 1550m. However, I think Unlimited can do a better job here from barrier 1.

Jealous: Last race, Jealous ran a place (2nd) at Eagle Farm over 1820m with M R Du Plessis on board, just finishing behind the winner (Zaphod (60kg)). Should get a lot of confidence from that run and should be a good bet again.

Akkadian Emperor: I'm a big fan of Akkadian Emperor in Race 8 at Randwick on Saturday. On December 14, won over 1850m at Newcastle, carrying 59kg. That was a solid win, so I believe that Akkadian Emperor can win on Saturday as well.

Monarchs Brae: Won a thriller by a nose at Canterbury last start and should be right in this race.

1st: 1, 3, 7, 10

2nd: 1, 3, 7, 10

Hezdarnhottoo: The last run for this horse was a good one, it had a nice run and beat the field. This horse just knows how to win. With Tommy Berry on board, this horse should get another favourable run and could get the win again.

Cosmic Fire: Last time out, this horse made a late surge and finished a close second over 1000m at Gold Coast, just behind the winner Arabian Summer (55kg). Is definitely one to watch and could be hard to beat. This horse goes on top for me.

Mishani Lily: Last race, Mishani Lily was 11 out of 12 at Gold Coast on December 20 on a good track over 1000m, 7.6 lengths behind Arabian Summer (55kg) with 55.5kg at $3.90. But it should improve here.

Petticoat: Last start, finished 3rd of 12 at Gold Coast in a Open over 1000m, just 3.8 lengths behind Cosmic Fire (56kg) carrying 54kg at $13.00.
