Racing Tips – Monday Best Bets for Armidale

Monday’s premier meeting comes from Armidale in Northern New South Wales. There is some rain forecast which could see the track downgrade from the present good.

Best Bet

2. Magic Shot
Armidale R5 (4.20pm)

Magic Shot looks primed to kick off his campaign with a win. He went to the paddock in good form, winning a Quirindi maiden in good style. He’s got plenty of early speed so from barrier three should lead or be right up there. The gelding won his most recent trial at Muswellbrook beating a handy one of Kris Lees. Looks the right form.

Recommended Price: $2.50
Confidence Level: 4/5

6. Lady of the Hunter
Armidale R2 (2.30pm)

Lady of the Hunter produced a sharply improved effort at Coffs Harbour last start, finishing third. She backs up quickly into this very ordinary maiden and back on her home track, looks nicely placed. There looks to be good speed so she can hopefully sit third or fourth and be too strong late.

Recommended Price: $3.80
Confidence Level: 3.5/5


6. Zoffany's Gaze
Armidale R6 (5.00pm)

Zoffany’s Gaze has been in great form of late and will relish getting out to 1900m here. His last run over 1600m at Tamworth was excellent considering he had to carry the 62Kg (he drops to 55Kg here) and didn’t have much luck in the straight. From barrier one he will do no work, just needs to get off the fence at the right time.

Recommended Price: $3.00
Confidence Level: 4/5
