Flemington hosts the Australian Cup on an ideal day for racing while the HE Tancred is the highlight at Rosehill which will be very wet.

Best Bet

1. Dubai Honour
Rosehill R8 (4.35pm)

Dubai Honour is a world class racehorse who can make it three wins from three starts in Australia. The gelding hasn’t been seen here since he did the Ranvet – QE double in 2023 with an aggregate margin of nearly seven lengths. Trainer William Haggas has made an artform out of bringing horses to Australia and he can make it yet another win here.

Recommended Price: $3.00
Confidence Level: 4.5/5

5. Apollo Mission
Rosehill R1 (12.30pm)

Apollo Mission has a big finish on his day and he showed he was back to near his best with a big showing in the Kembla Provincial Championships Qualifier last start. If they can run on here, he should be a knock out chance.

Recommended Price: $10
Confidence Level: 3/5


2. Mazu
Rosehill R7 (4.00pm)

BET NOW

Mazu is a very good sprinter on his day and his day is usually when there is rain – he gets that here. Both runs in the Challenge and Lightning over 1000m have been more than acceptable and third up out to 1200m is a big tick. Draws well and decently enough in at the weights.

Recommended Price: $5.00
Confidence Level: 3.5/5


4. Middle Earth
Flemington R8 (4.15pm)

BET NOW

Loved the Australian debut of Middle Earth when he was very heavily backed in the Australian Cup Prelude and won most impressively. This is a tougher ask but he should relish a strong pace here with Pride of Jenni and Deny Knowledge likely to roll along in front. Can sit off them and power on by late.

Recommended Price: $5.00
Confidence Level: 3.5/5


9. Berkshire Breeze
Flemington R9 (4.55pm)
Bet Now
BET NOW

Berkshire Breeze has promised the world and delivered an atlas but he nevertheless does look the value in the Roy Higgins. He showed he was back to his best form with an encouraging first up run in the Aus Cup Prelude and his best performances are out to this trip. Deakin is a deserved favourite but he is a good price to cause an upset.

Recommended Price: $5.50
Confidence Level: 3.5/5
