Lay Of The Day: 5 Horses We Think You Should Lay At Rosehill & Pakenham 3/12

Lay Of The Day: 5 Horses We Think You Should Lay At Rosehill & Pakenham 3/12

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


PAKENHAM RACE 7 –  MILFORD

He’s going to find this a vastly different scenario to his win last week in the Eclipse Stakes. Firstly he’s up 700 metres in distance and rises 1.5 kilos. He has to give weight to some handy stayers as well


PAKENHAM RACE 8 –  LOOKS LIKE ELVIS

Veteran galloper who rarely puts a foot wrong. He just got home first-up last time in and he rises three kilos on that effort.

PAKENHAM RACE 9 –  CHICAGO BEAR
Get Top Odds Here

Played up at the barrier at his Australian debut and then was held up for a run and raced greenly in the closing stages. He’s obviously talented but he’s drawn in which may not be the place to be at the end of the day.


ROSEHILL RACE 4 – FRUMOS
Get Top Odds Here

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.


ROSEHILL RACE 6 – ZOUMON
  • Trainer: WATERHOUSE & BOTT
  • Jockey: J PARR
  • Barrier: 9
  • Price: $4.20 @ Betfair

He had little trouble leading throughout to win at Moonee Valley last start but he was against moderate horses on a track which played to on-pacers. There’s more depth in his opposition on this occasion.
