Tuesday will see a host of quality thoroughbred races across the country with our focus being on the meeting at Benalla in Victoria. Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Friday 9th April, 2021.
Benalla – Race 3 2:30PM AEST
BEST BET: No. 8 Bobsled – Bet Now: $1.90
This looks like an ideal race for Bobsled and he has an excellent chance to claim a maiden race win.
On exposed form he does have a genuine class edge over the rest of this field and this is probably the weakest race that he has ever contested.
With even luck in running, he will prove very tough to beat.
Benalla – Race 4 3:00PM AEST
No. 10 La Spezia – Bet Now: $2.20
La Spezia has raced well without winning during her racing career to date and the filly finds herself in a very winnable contest this afternoon.
She has been slow out of the gates in her recent race starts, but she has been finding the line nicely and the step-up in trip suits.
Harry Coffey will be able to give her a lovely run in transit and she can finish over the top of her rivals late.
Benalla – Race 5 3:30PM AEST
No. 3 Mach One – Bet Now: $3.50
Mach One doesn’t win out of turn, but trainer Gavin Bedggood does look to have found a nice race for him.
His last start effort at Ladbrokes Park Sandown was better than it looks on paper and this is a genuine drop in class.
He will settle in the second half of the field and should be able to outstay his rivals late.
Benalla – Race 7 4:30PM AEST
No. 1 Our August Rose – Bet Now: $SP.00
Our August Rose will need some luck in running from the wide barrier draw, but there is no doubt that she is the class horse in this field.
She has recorded two wins from her past three race starts and her last start at Kilmore could hardly have been more impressive.
