Best Exotic Bets of the Day | 05/04/25

Exotic Bets of the Day
Exacta - Randwick - R6
1st: 2, 1, 3, 4
2nd: 2, 1, 3, 4
Wodeton: An overlooked contender, Wodeton could be key to exotic success. Wodeton has placed in three straight races, showcasing consistency and form. Wodeton raced recently, placing 2nd in a 1200m event at Rosehill. Has dominated on soft tracks before, expect another strong effort.
Rivellino: Rivellino is in my exotic bets for Saturday, a good value bet I think. He finished a close fourth in the previous outing, not far off the placings at Randwick. Rivellino competed at Rosehill over 1200m, finishing 4th. He thrives on this track - a real specialist here, always delivering. At this track, holds a record of 3-0-0, with 3 wins.
Vinrock: Vinrock is a strong candidate for exacta bets. In its third-ever start, Vinrock is gaining more experience and improving with each race. Last outing, Vinrock took on a 1400m race at Flemington and finished 1st. A true master over 1400m - hasn't been beaten yet and unlikely to start now.
Prestige Forever: For those placing exotic bets, Prestige Forever is a logical inclusion. With each race, Prestige Forever is learning more, and its third start marks another step forward. Last time out, Prestige Forever competed over 1200m, placing 1st at Moonee Valley. Undefeated when the track is soft, hard to bet against at Randwick.
Exacta - Caulfield - R3
1st: 13, 14, 2, 11
2nd: 13, 14, 2, 11
Just Glamourous: Watch out for Just Glamourous - a great choice for exotics at Caulfield. Second-place finish last time out suggests this runner is in peak form. Last start, Just Glamourous finished in the placings over 1400m at Warwick Farm on 05/03/2025.
Pink Chandon: For those punting on Saturday, Pink Chandon should be in consideration. Showed plenty of heart to finish third last run, running on well late.
Electric Belle: If you’re looking for value, include Electric Belle. Electric Belle has demonstrated remarkable consistency, placing in three straight races. Electric Belle stepped out at Caulfield on 15/03/2025, finishing 1st over 1600m. While not dominant at Caulfield, Electric Belle has enough ability to find a way through.
Divine Thoughts: Divine Thoughts has the credentials to be a factor. With three consecutive placings, Divine Thoughts has shown its ability to stay competitive. Has managed to win at 1600m before, but needs a strong run.
Exacta - Hawkesbury - R7
1st: 2, 8, 9, 12
2nd: 2, 8, 9, 12
Last Command: Including Last Command in exotics could lead to a big payout at Hawkesbury. Finished outside the top four in his last race but had moments that hinted at better performances ahead. Last Command raced at Randwick last start, covering 1600m and finishing 7th. Never beaten over this trip 1300m - hard to look past it.
Threatening: Those betting on exotics should not overlook Threatening. Missed the top four in his last run but showed enough to suggest a stronger performance is near. Last time out, Threatening competed over 1400m, placing 6th at Newcastle. Solid strike rate at this trip (1300m), should be competitive.
Broadway Follies: Broadway Follies has potential written all over him. Hit the line well last start to secure a runner-up finish. Last start performance, Broadway Follies came 2nd over 1200m at Kembla Grange. Has won at this trip before, can do it again I think. No wins at Hawkesbury yet, but this could be the day Broadway Follies turns things around. Strong soft-track performer with the form to back it up.
Alabama Fox: For a solid exotic bet, don’t leave out Alabama Fox. In its third-ever race, Alabama Fox is starting to show signs of adapting to the competition. Alabama Fox stepped out at Kembla Grange on 22/03/2025, finishing 1st over 1400m. The wetter, the better - this horse excels when the track has give in it.
