It’s Newcastle Cup day and we have found THREE horses that we think will be hard to beat, including one at double figures.

If you’re looking for a quick tip, then this is the post for you, as we have looked through the form, sectionals, ratings, and speed maps to find THREE horses for you to back today.

Race 5: More Territories

  • Trainer: O’Shea & Charlton
  • Jockey: D Gibbons
  • Barrier: 3

We’re looking at backing this mare each way as she showed great form when running second at Randwick before going for a spell last preparations.

Her first up starts are impressive (3: 2-0-0), and she is a winner at this trip.


Race 6: Travolta

  • Trainer: C Waller
  • Jockey: K McEvoy
  • Barrier: 7

He did all of the hard work when chasing Changingoftheguard home at Randwick last start.

We love the booking of McEvoy and think he will be hard to beat if he can repeat his last run.


Race 8: Not That Easy

  • Trainer: J Coyle
  • Jockey: R King
  • Barrier: 12

The drop back in grade looks to be key for this mare as she hasn’t been far away in recent runs.

She finished 2.3L behind the winner at Randwick last time out and will be attacking the line well here.
