Best Exotic Tips of the Day | 05/10/24

Exotic Tips of the Day
Exacta - Flemington - R9
1st: 4, 2, 1, 14
2nd: 4, 2, 1, 14
Magic Time: Saturday's race sees some good odds to have a crack, I think. Likes running after a spell with 2 wins in 4 starts when it has been first-up before. With Michael Dee on board, that gives me confidence too.
Sghirripa: Last run, it finished 3rd at Morphettville over 1100m. Should be right in the thick of things.
Arkansaw Kid: In its last race on September 14 at Flemington, he surged to the front, just getting the win. He carried 53.5kg and managed to beat Skybird (53kg), which was quite impressive, especially at $6.50 odds. So, it's definitely in top form right now.
Right To Party: In its latest run at Flemington Open on September 14, it held its ground and snagged 4th place out of 10, not too bad.
Exacta - Randwick - R7
1st: 1, 7, 2, 3
2nd: 1, 7, 2, 3
Giga Kick: On September 7 at Randwick in a Open over 1000m, Giga Kick started slow and finished 5th out of 12, while carrying 60.5kg at $4.80 odds. Likes running second-up.
Bella Nipotina: In good form and has strong claims to win on Saturday. Last start was a good one, placing 2nd in a Open at Randwick over 1000m.
Think About It: Last run was a 5th finish at Eagle Farm over 1300m in a Open. But, I think Think About It could run well here from barrier 8.
Mazu: Last time out, it finished 3rd out of 11 in the Open at Randwick on September 21. That race was over 1100m on a good track and it came in 0.7 lengths behind Stefi Magnetica (56kg). Definitely among the winning chances.
Exacta - Doomben - R8
1st: 16, 22, 3, 2
2nd: 16, 22, 3, 2
Navyonthehighway: Ready to win now. Finished second last start with Tahlia Fenlon on board at Eagle Farm.
Barassi: The last time this horse hit the track, Barassi put in a better effort, and that's something to take note of for Saturday's race. With Kyle Wilson-Taylor riding, you know that Barassi has got a jockey who can handle business.
Majorelle: Coming off a win at Lismore and has looked good this prep. Likes running fourth-up with 2 wins in 3 starts. Should be a danger in this field.
Reliable Ruby: I like the look of Reliable Ruby in Race 8 at Doomben on Saturday. Previously won at Sunshine Coast over 1000m, carrying 58.5kg. That was a really good win, so I think Reliable Ruby should be tough to beat on Saturday too.
Stats and Insights
- Flexi Betting lets you bet a bit of the full dividend, so you can stick to your budget by taking a smaller cut of the total win.
- With the Exacta, your payout depends on which of the Aussie TABs is in your area.
- The Exacta usually pays out more than the Quinella since it's trickier to pick the horses in the right order.
- Exacta's are a good bet if you're really confident in a horse to win, especially if it's a short-priced favourite.
