Friday will see plenty of quality thoroughbred racing across the country with our focus being on the meeting at Moonee Valley in Victoria. Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Friday 18th December, 2020.
Moonee Valley – Race 1 6:30PM AEST
No. 1 Japery – Bet Now: $3.70
Japery is a lightly-raced horse that still has plenty of upside.
The way that he put away his rivals at Wangaratta was very impressive and he should take good improvement from that run.
Barrier six is perfect for him and he will get a lovely trail into the race.
Moonee Valley – Race 3 7:30PM AEST
No. 3 Tycoon Bec – Bet Now: $2.10
Tycoon Bec could hardly have been more impressive on debut and she is one of the most exciting horses on this entire card.
She went straight to the front and never gave her rivals a chance on debut at Kyneton and her racing style looks ideal for The Valley.
Will Price can take her straight to the front in the early stages of this race and she will give her rivals something to catch.
Moonee Valley – Race 4 8:00PM AEST
No. 8 Miss Bank Place – Bet Now: $15.00
Miss Bank Place is outstanding value at her current quote of $17.
There was plenty to like about her first-up win at Bendigo and she is a horse that still has upside.
The wide barrier draw isn’t ideal, but she does have early speed and I would like to see her ridden aggressively from the wide draw.
Moonee Valley – Race 7 9:30PM AEST
No. 3 Rocking Eagle – Bet Now: $15.00
Rocking Eagle is another horse that represents value at double-figure odds.
He first-up effort at Pakenham was too bad to bad to be true and if you ignore that run, his other form would have him right in this race.
Rocking Eagle has generally raced in stronger company than this and I am happy to gamble at the current price.
