Wednesday will see plenty of quality thoroughbred racing across the country with our focus being on the meeting at Grafton in New South Wales. Take a look at our horse racing tips and best bets for Wednesday 8th July, 2020.
Grafton – Race 4 2:14PM AEST
BEST BET: No. 9 Toto – Bet Now: $2.90
Toto is a lightly-raced galloper that has an excellent chance to claim a maiden race win at Grafton this afternoon.
He chased home the promising Remlaps Gem at Scone last start and there is no horse with that ability in this field.
1000 metres is ideal for him and he has more upside than his rivals.
Grafton – Race 6 3:24PM AEST
No. 3 Ready To Humble – Bet Now: $4.00
This is an outstanding edition of the Grafton Guineas and there are a host of winning chances.
Ready To Humble has now recorded three wins from his seven race starts and I think that he can go to another level to win this contest.
He has been racing consistently against the older horses in Highway Handicap races and he maps to get a lovely run in transit from barrier one this afternoon.
Grafton – Race 7 3:59PM AEST
No. 4 Haunted – Bet Now: $8.00
It has been a while between wins for Haunted, but he is the value runner in the Ramornie Handicap at his current odds.
He has finished a close second in his past two race starts at Flemington and there is no fitter horse in this field.
Barrier five is ideal for him and he maps to get a lovely run in transit just behind the leaders.
$9.50 is well and truly over the odds in what is an open edition of the Ramornie Handicap.
Grafton – Race 8 4:34PM AEST
No. 5 California Longbow – Bet Now: $2.60
This is the weakest race that California Longbow has contested in some time and he has an excellent chance to return to winning form.
His bare form doesn’t read particularly impressive, but each run has been better than it looks on paper and the step-up to 2200 metres is ideal for him.
This is his chance to return to winning form.
