Racing Tips – Monday Best Bets for Darwin

Betseeker has you covered for free expert horse racing tips and best bets at Darwin.

It’s the big one up in Darwin, Cup Day, and our best bet comes up in the main event, Race 10 at 6.00pm AEST.

Best Bet

1. Bear Story
Darwin R10 (6.00pm)

Easy to see why Bear Story is the dominant favourite for this year’s Darwin Cup. The one time Group 3 winner in Ireland was utterly dominant winning the key lead up to this race, the Chief Minister’s Cup, at his first start in the NT, breaking the track record in the process. He just needs some luck from the low draw and should be too good.

Recommended Price: $2.50
Confidence Level: 4/5


More Racing Tips

9. Rising Fire
Darwin R7 (3.57pm)

Runners on the quick back up from Saturday often do well at this meeting and Rising Fire is a prime candidate off the back of his win on Saturday. He toughed it out there when caught wide but from barrier three draws to get a much better run in this race.

Recommended Price: $4.50
Confidence Level: 4/5


1. He's Maverick
Darwin R9 (5.15pm)

He’s Maverick is enjoying a great campaign in the top end, having won three straight including the Darwin Guineas before finishing second in the NT Derby. He takes on the older horses here at BM70 level but in his present excellent form, he can keep winning.

Recommended Price: $2.50
Confidence Level: 4/5
