There’s only a few days to go before we get to see the race of all races in 2008. This year Ireland has some great chances, as do New Zealand and Great Britain. Mad Rush from the USA has had a perfect lead up to the cup and is another big chance to take the Melb. Cup to America. A lot has been said about this years weaker than average Australian field, but anything can happen in the race that stops the nation.

I think she’s a much stronger horse but we all know anything can happen on race day.

My Tips: Princess Coup looks hard to beat. Master O’Reilly didn’t have a great run last week but there’s a good chance he can find some form this weekend. We all know what Damien Oliver and Bart Cummings are capable of, Sirmione could well run a place and should be good value each-way.

Racing in Spring has it all, the top group 1 races featuring the best horses from all over the country, and even the world. Among the top races this spring are the Epsom Handicap, the Spring Champion Stakes, Caulfield Cup, Cox Plate and then we get to the race that stops the nation – The 2008 Melbourne Cup. Not to mention 21 Country Cups including Bendigo, Cranbourne, Geelong, Manangatang, Sale and others spread out over nearly 3 action packed months.

I’m a big fan of getting bets on early at fixed prices in order to attract the best odds possible, which undoubtedly attracts some risks but the reward is well worth it if you’re on the money. Getting decent fixed odds used to be possible only through a select few bookies via the phone, but now thanks to the internet, finding and comparing the best odds for future horse races is now easier than ever.

Again I’ll list the top three places for you to research who has the best odds for your particular horse.

  • IAS Bet – Mark Read’s own usually has the best fixed price odds.
  • Sporting Bet – Yes, despite the name, you can bet on racing as well.
  • CentreBet – Always decent odds to be had here.

Happy punting, and check back here throughout Spring for some free tips and links to the best odds online for the major races. It almost goes without saying, if you can find good fixed odds for Weekend Hussler, it may well be worth throwing a few coins down.

That’s a good deal no matter how you look at it!

I think there’s great value for both the Bombers, who are in great form at the moment, and the cellar dweller Demons who’re playing a not-very-impressive Freo. With Palmer and Bell out for Fremantle, they simply don’t have any good midfielders. Pavlich will get them close, but I think Melbourne have shown that they can play some decent football this year and I think they’ll be too good. The tanking subject makes games like this tough to pick, I think it would be silly to bet big on either team, especially the Dockers, whereas there’s definitely value in betting on the Demons. Richmond showed how easy it is to beat a team that’s not trying, but this week they’re playing a team of Bombers who look in great form and I wouldn’t be surprised if the Tigers finished the season in 9th position again this year. The bombers on the other hand, I believe are a real chance to make the 8.

  • Multi Bet with Collingwood, Geelong, Hawthorn, Sydney and Adelaide with odds of nearly $8.80
  • Essendon to beat Richmond at $2.20
  • Melbourne to beat Fremantle at $2.85

    • Here are the rest of the odds with my tips for this weeks winners in bold.

I do see quite a fair bit of value this week, so I’ve put in one more bet than usual.

    The Saints really should be too good for Carlton. The closest the Blues have come to beating St. Kilda in recent years is 10 points in 2007. Earlier this year, the Saints bet them by more than 6 goals, but with Judd coming back in to the side and Carlton playing much better defensively, I think it will be much closer than last time.

    The Kangaroos have much more to play for than Port. With Chad Cornes on one leg, one hand, one arm and who knows what else, the Power will struggle to match it with a fiery North Melbourne side, I think the odds should favour the Roos here.

    Sydney have had Hawthorn’s measure the last 6 times they’ve met, and with those odds you can’t go past them.

    The Tigers odds have blown out thanks to Richo’s hamstring. One (albeit great) man does not make a football team, and the black and yellow should prevail against the “rabble” that West Coast appears to be this year.

    Australia’s own Sporting Bet looks to have some very healthy odds this week, and I’ll outline my recommended bets for each game this week.

    With whatever you choose to have a punt on this week, good luck!

This is a real test for both the St. Kilda football club, and for Ross Lyon as a coach. I think they’re up to the task, and will beat the Dockers in a close finish.

    The Cats are finding some form again and should get up by over 5 goals against a midfield depleted West Coast side.

    For the long-shot this week, Adelaide have had the better of the Lions in recent years, and the Bird man will be a huge plus for the Crows.

    Good luck and happy punting!

The stand out value punt for me in round 11 is Richmond taking on a birdman-less Adelaide outfit. Richo is in brownlow medal form and Adelaide have been very inaccurate in front of goal lately. At $2.40, the tigers are a a great chance at good odds.

    St. Kilda found some form last week, but against Melbourne this year that’s not saying a great deal. They’re paying $2.58 against the Bulldogs who are in good form at the moment, comfortably defeating the previously unbeaten Hawthorn last week, and they beat the Saints by 38 points earlier in the year. Without Murphy, the dogs have lost one very good avenue to goal, but I still think they’ll be too strong.

    Finally the long-shot of the week. Carlton have a chance to upset a struggling Port Adelaide side, and with odds of over $6 for the win, there is a bit of value in them. For a safer option, Port by less than 40 points is still good value.

    Suggested value bets

    1. Richmond to beat Adelaide paying $2.40.
    2. St Kilda to beat Bulldogs paying $2.58
    3. Carlton to win paying $6.10 and/or Port Adelaide by 1-39 paying $2.30

    Good luck and happy punting!
