Hamilton Racing Club plays host to Tuesday country racing in Victoria.
The BetDeluxe team has gone through the best bets on the program with the best of the day coming up in race three.
Hamilton Race 3
#6 Guaranteed
Dean Yendall has swapped mounts from Swift Spark to Guaranteed which is a sign of who to lean towards in this race.
Guaranteed has been plugging away okay in similar maiden races to this one, but this actually looks the most favourable in all of his four career starts to date.
He is one of the only horses in the race to have a last start run at a provincial/city track and can bring that form to the bush with a perfect run from barrier five.
He is still a young horse with zest in his legs and should be able to break his maiden status with Yendall aboard.
Suggested Bet: Guaranteed win at $2.7
Hamilton race 4
#10 Deep 'n' meaningful
Going with the three-year-old filly to break through for her maiden victory after a nice enough debut at Horsham that should see her train on well for this race.
She fought on well for second behind eventual winner Video who was very well backed to beat her.
Wide barrier should pose no problems with her early speed being the asset to offset being caught deep without cover.
Fully expecting her to find the front, control the race and boot clear for a win.
Suggested Bet: Deep ‘N’ Meaningful win at $2.15
Suggested Exotic: Quinella 10 & 12
Hamilton Race 6
#1 Filip's Star
Siding with Filip’s Star and going against the odds-on favourite Desired who left plenty to be desired after a bang average resuming effort at Horsham over 1100 metres.
Filip’s Star looks the on-pace runner here who is going to be tough to get best with a solid base of a fitness and a track that will suit his leading running style.
If he can force Desired to sit at his girth and control the race in the lead, it will go a long way to winning.
Hoping Will Gordon can use his initiative and use the nice fitness platform this horse has to gain his competitive advantage on this field.
Suggested Bet: Filip’s Star win at $3.5
Suggested Exotic: Trifecta – 1/ 5/ 9
Hamilton Race 7
#8 Gunsablazin'
Gunsablazin’ has been racing very well despite not winning at his last few starts.
He was truck loaded in the betting at this most recent start but got way too far back to make a winning impact on the race.
The big positive here is the booking of senior hoop Neil Farley who should hopefully be much more positive away from the barriers.
If this horse can get a backside to follow into the straight, he will give a us a good sight at long odds.
Suggested Bet: Gunsablazin’ each-way at $16 the win and $3.3 the place.
