For this Saturday, here are my top bets of the day in 3 of the best races during the Flemington meeting.
Best Bet – Race 7: Shockletz
Win Odds: $4.20 | Place Odds: $1.80
Bookmaker: Bet Now with Playup
Top Tip (Best Bet):
Shockletz - Strong placing last start, showing consistency and determination. On 21/06/2025, Shockletz lined up at Flemington, finishing 2nd over 2000m. Connections will get to witness their horse racing with Harry Coffey in the saddle on Saturday. This jockey has plenty of wins under their belt.
Biggest Threat (Danger):
Vellasmachine - Held on for fourth last start, showing determination to the line. Vellasmachine competed at Flemington over 2000m, finishing 4th. Loves getting its hooves into soft ground and should relish these conditions. Still searching for that first win at Flemington, but it’s certainly not out of the question.
Value Play:
Ant - With three consecutive placings, Ant has shown its ability to stay competitive. Last start, Ant finished in the placings over 2000m at Kembla Grange on 21/06/2025. At this stage, Ben Melham is listed to ride him on Saturday. They should settle nicely into this race.
