Lay Of The Day: 5 Horses We Think You Should Lay At Randwick & Caulfield

3 years ago - Sportingbase

Our analyst has put together a list of five horses he thinks you can ‘lay’ at Randwick & Caulfield tomorrow.

*Note:

In horse racing, when you lay a horse, you win if any other horse in the race comes first. If the horse you bet against wins then you lose and have to pay the backer his winnings.

CAULFIELD RACE 2 – OLD FLAME

Trainer: Team Snowden
Jockey: J Kah
Barrier: 4
Price: $2.88 @ Betfair

[bet-us-2]

He looks too short in the market with the J.Kah factor kicking in. He’s got to give weight to capable and under-rated gallopers in Jimmy The Bear and Cardinal Gem, who represent better value.

CAULFIELD RACE 5 – SARACEN KNIGHT

Trainer: D O’Brien
Jockey: J Kah
Barrier: 2
Price: $5.10 @ Betfair

[bet-us-2]

He’s being taken on in the market and there’s a good reason for that as he doesn’t represent value. He’s fit and can handle the heavy but when he won at Mornington last start he had the race presented to him. This is a lot harder.

CAULFIELD RACE 8 – BERKELEY SQUARE

Trainer: D O’Sullivan
Jockey: C Williams
Barrier: 7
Price: $5.40 @ Betfair

[bet-us-2]

He’s a gifted galloper but he’s got a bit against him. There’s a query on the tempo and he’s likely to be worse than mid-field in the run. Obviously can win but looks a risk at $5.40.

RANDWICK RACE 7 – SHARP ‘N’ SMART

Trainer: Team Rogerson
Jockey: B Melham
Barrier: 2
Price: $6.00 @ Betfair

[bet-us-2]

Talented Kiwi who scraped in when he resumed in New Zealand. He’s taking on some fit and talented horses in this and looks a risk.

RANDWICK RACE 9 – POLLY GREY

Trainer: C Waller
Jockey: T Berry
Barrier: 14
Price: $5.00 @ Betfair

[bet-us-2]

She’s a swimmer and her recent first-up form has been encouraging but she’s still only won once first-up attempts and she’s now an eight-year-old. From barrier 14 she doesn’t look any value.
