Monday will see a host of quality thoroughbred races across the country with our focus being on the meeting at Moruya in New South Wales. Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Monday 4th January, 2021.
Moruya – Race 5 3:20PM AEST
No. 10 Emma’s Gift – Bet Now: $3.20
Emma’s Gift is a lightly-raced filly that has plenty of upside and this looks like a nice race for her.
She scored a nice win at Canberra in her second race start and she wasn’t beaten far over this track and distance last start.
Barrier one is ideal and she can make her own luck right on the speed.
Moruya – Race 7 4:40PM AEST
BEST BET: No. 9 Donandkim – Bet Now: $3.50
It has been a while between wins for Donandkim, but he is still the horse to beat in the Moruya Cup.
He has been racing consistently in tougher company than this race and he has form around some decent horses.
James Innes should be able to take him straight to the front and he will give his rivals something to catch.
Moruya – Race 8 5:20PM AEST
No. 2 Devil Dan – Bet Now: $5.00
Devil Dan could hardly have been more impressive at Kembla Grange first-up and a repeat of that effort would make him very tough to beat.
He is another galloper that will roll forward from the inside barrier draw and there isn’t a huge amount of speed in this race.
He is genuine value at his current quote.
Moruya – Race 6 5:00PM AEST
No. 17 Apache Dude – Bet Now: $34.00
Apache Dude is a much better chance than his current odds of $34 in the Harrington Cup suggests.
He is clearly racing in career best form and he comes into this contest on the back of two solid efforts at Taree.
The heavy track isn’t an issue and he makes his own luck right on the speed.
