Racing Tips – Thursday Best Bets for Bendigo and Cranbourne

Chartres - Geelong - Horse Racing Tips

Racing comes from Bendigo, the nursery of champions, in the afternoon before the night meeting at Cranbourne.

Best Bet

1. Divine Thoughts
Cranbourne R2 (6.15pm)

Divine Thoughts debut at Yarra Valley was a genuine car crash, the filly having absolutely no luck throughout the race only to charge home when finally clear late. She was well backed there for a reason, getting out to 1400m here looks ideal and Linda Meech will have one job, which is to keep her in clear running.

Recommended Price: $2.70
Confidence Level: 4/5


More Racing Tips

4. Princess Mary
Bendigo R2 (2.30pm)

Princess Mary is having her first start for the Moody/Coleman stable after showing nice ability in three starts at the NSW provincials, finishing second in two of them. The favourite here will take some beating but she has trialled very nicely and come up a good price here.

Recommended Price: $4.00
Confidence Level: 3/5


4. Telephone
Bendigo R5 (4.00pm)

Telephone made an excellent debut in a strong $50K maiden at Albury, picking his way through the field and hitting the line too well for his rivals. They ran good time relative to the open sprint on the day. He looks capable of going through his grades and 1100m round this track second up looks ideal.

Recommended Price: $4.40
Confidence Level: 3.5/5


6. Myers Reward
Bendigo R6 (4.30pm)

Myers Reward was backed off the map last start at Benalla but just couldn’t quite overhaul an all the way leader with a light weight. That was just his second run since 2021 so there should still be fitness improvement to come. Just needs some luck from the wide draw to be too good for these.

Recommended Price: $4.00
Confidence Level: 3.5/5
