Best Bet of the Day:
Greyhound: #5 She Is Fire
Odds: $2.15
Race: Casino, Race 7 [1:44pm AEST]
Trainer: Mark Moroney
Form: 542113
Why it's our pick: My 'Best Bet of the Day' is #8 Blue Hornet, with a promising win odd of $2.00. The reason behind my choice lies in his recent and consistent performances. Blue Hornet impressively won his last race at this track by 2.25 lengths, clocking in at 34.77 in a Free For All. His track record from box 8 is notable, with three wins and two minor places from eight starts, indicating a strong affinity for this starting position. Furthermore, his last victory on November 30 demonstrated his ability to lead effectively, especially after taking over at the second turn. Blue Hornet has proven to be a remarkable chaser. With just a clear run needed for him to excel, he stands out as a strong contender for a win today.

Next Best Bet of the Day:
Greyhound: #8 Masani Girl
Odds: $2.05
Race: Casino, Race 10 [2:49pm AEST]
Trainer: Christopher Field
Form: 442141
Why it's our pick: I'm placing my next best bet of the day on #8 Masani Girl, who's currently standing at odds of $2.05 for a win. Masani Girl has shown herself to be a quick beginner, a trait that's been particularly evident in her recent performances. Her ability to get off to a fast start and maintain that pace is crucial in greyhound racing, and she's been consistently demonstrating this skill.
What really cements her as a top pick for me today is her recent track record at this very track and distance. She's not just been winning; she's been doing so impressively. Her last start win over 411m in a time of 23.14, where she led from the outset and held off Bomber Stan, showcases her strength and racing acumen.
So, given her form, her quick starts, and her recent successes, Masani Girl looks like she's in prime condition to take the lead and be a strong contender for the win again. Her ability to be prominent right from the start and her resilience to hold on till the end make her a very appealing choice, and I'm confident she'll go close to winning once more!
Multi Bet of the Day:
19:34 - Shepparton, Race 3: #7 Gunai Gem PLACE @ $1.35
21:43 - Shepparton, Race 9: #5 Moraine Bella PLACE @ $1.55
22.42 - Shepparton, Race 12: #2 Riot As One PLACE @ $1.60
Combined Odds: $3.34
Why it's our pick: Turning our attention to my selections for today's 'multi bet of the day,' I've opted for an all-place strategy, focusing exclusively on the races at Shepparton - let's dive in!
#7 Guani Gem in Shepparton race 3 is a strong pick for a place bet. Her recent run, finishing in the frame with a time of 22.50, shows she's in good form. This will be her first time racing from box 7, and I believe she has the speed to adapt and perform well in this new position. Her solid win three starts back only strengthens my confidence in her ability to place in this race!
Moving on to #5 Moraine Bella in Shepparton race 9, she's coming off two impressive wins, showing she can lead and maintain her pace all the way. Her latest victory in a quick time of 22.33 over 390m at this track highlights her as a top contender. I'm backing her to continue this winning momentum and secure another place finish, given her consistent form and racing ability.
And lastly, Riot As One in Shepparton race 12 is hard to overlook for a place bet. His last start was remarkable, winning by 4.5 lengths in a Grade 6 race and clocking an impressive 22.23 over 390m. This performance not only showcases his speed but also his potential to maintain this form. I'm confident in his ability to be a strong competitor again and expect him to be right up there in the finish.
So, in combining these selections, it offers us a multi-bet with combined odds of $3.34. Each greyhound has demonstrated recent form and ability, making them promising picks for achieving place finishes in their respective races today. Here's hoping they all cross the line successfully!
Bonus Pick for the Day:
Greyhound: #5 Bright Sapphire
Odds: $2.10
Race: Ipswich, Race 5 [1:19pm AEST]
Trainer: Paul Graham
Form: -
Why it's our pick: My 'Bonus Pick for the Day' is #5 Bright Sapphire, stepping up with odds of $2.10 for a win. This choice is a bit of a wildcard, given he's a first starter with no trial form, but there are a few intriguing factors that draw me to him.
First off, Bright Sapphire comes from a promising lineage, being the brother to Sapphire King. This familial connection suggests a potential for innate racing ability and speed, which often runs in greyhound bloodlines. The genetic factor here is a significant reason for my interest.
Moreover, his debut is notable not just for his background but also for his breeding. Bright Sapphire is sired by Aussie Infrared from Sapphire Queen, a pairing that holds promise. Originating from the Paul Graham kennel, a name that carries weight in greyhound racing circles, adds another layer of potential to his racing debut.
Additionally, what also piques my curiosity is the noticeable market movement for Bright Sapphire, with his odds tightening from $3.70 to $2.10 so far. In greyhound racing, such shifts often reflect growing confidence among insiders about a greyhound's potential, particularly for a debutant like Bright Sapphire.
So, given these factors, while Bright Sapphire is a bit of an unknown quantity, the intrigue surrounding his lineage, breeding, and kennel, coupled with the anticipation of market reactions, makes him a fascinating pick for today. It's a bit of a speculative choice, but one that could pay off if his inherent traits and breeding shine through in his first race!
