Lay Of The Day: 5 Horses We Think You Should Lay At Randwick & Sandown 10/12

Our analyst has put together a list of five horses he thinks you should ‘lay’ at Randwick & Sandown today.

*Note:

In horse racing, when you lay a horse, you win if any other horse in the race comes first. If the horse you bet against wins then you lose and have to pay the backer his winnings.

SANDOWN RACE 1 – CANTOLAGO

• Trainer: HAYES TEAM
• Jockey: C WILLIAMS
• Barrier: 4
• Price: $2.50 @ Betfair

He’s looked brilliant winning his jump-outs but a race is something different again. He looks a bit short in the markets.

SANDOWN RACE 5 – DETONATOR JACK

• Trainer: MAHER & EUSTACE
• Jockey: H COFFEY
• Barrier: 8
• Price: $1.65 @ Betfair

There’s no doubt he’ll be hard to beat but should he be a lot shorter than Green Fly who defeated him last start. Yes Green Fly got to the fast lane but he also lost some ground getting out there. There’s not much between them.

SANDOWN RACE 8 – RIOT AND ROSE

• Trainer: MOODY
• Jockey: L NOLEN
• Barrier: 12
• Price: $4.40 @ Betfair

His first-up effort from a year off was good at Ballarat but this is a bit tougher and often the second run back from a lengthy spell is the difficult one.

RANDWICK RACE 5 – FACILE

• Trainer: RYAN & ALEXIOU
• Jockey: B AVDULLA
• Barrier: 5
• Price: $1.75 @ Betfair

She might be a rising star but her racing style isn’t necessarily suited to Rosehill as she proved with her only two Australian defeats at her last two runs before she went for a spell. From barrier one she’ll need some breaks.
