—

Race 1. (13:30) Ararat AG Maiden (1200m)

#4 – Never a Doubt @ $4.20

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Looking to win on debut is Never a Doubt, who hasn’t been asked for much in two trials.

The three-year-old gelding by Dubious comes off a fourth at the Cranbourne trials and it’s good to see money come for him on debut.

He opened at $4.50, so the betting moves are strong.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (14:00) Russ Studio Jewellers Maiden (1100m)

#8 – Heavenly Way @ $3.20

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Heavenly Way is knocking on the door after two placings from three starts, including a second placing at Terang last time out.

The three-year-old filly by Deep Field got a touch too far back before hitting the line nicely, and that should be a nice form guide.

Barrier 12 is the only negative, but she’s worth backing.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (14:30) Harris Accident Repair Centre Maiden (1600m)

#11 – Macha @ $2.30

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Macha is getting close to posting a win after consecutive placings at Geelong and Bendigo.

The three-year-old daughter of I Am Invincible should find this level of opposition to her liking, and her drifting odds are worth taking.

Getting $2.30 is a fair price from bookmakers.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 4. (15:00) Harvey Norman Ararat Maiden (2200m)

#3 – Direct Sound @ $2.10

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Big money has come for Direct Sound, who opened at $3.10, and that’s always a good sign.

The three-year-old son of Alabama Express owns three placings from five starts, including a second placing at Terang last start.

$2.10 is on the shorter side of value but he should be tough to hold out.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 5. (15:30) Ararat Concrete BM58 (2200m)

#9 – Amizetta @ $3.70

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Looking for consecutive wins is Amizetta, who defeated a similar field when scoring at Terang.

The four-year-old got the better of Stardom Awaayts last start, so there’s no reason why she can’t win back-to-back races.

John Allen rides and having a strong rider helps over 2200m.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 6. (16:00) Ords Motorcycles BM64 (1300m)

#11 – Our Paramour @ $8.50

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The Kiwi runner didn’t fire at Flemington last time out behind Treasurethemoment, but this is a massive drop in class.

She looked good winning at Cranbourne two back, and although that came over 2025m, she’s good enough to handle this distance.

Punters get better odds than expected, so include her in picks.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 7. (16:30) Bet365 Country Mile Heat 5 (1600m)

#4 – Rip ‘N’ Rip @ $2.90

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Rip ‘N’ Rip was scratched from a harder race last Friday night at The Valley, and that could have been a good decision.

He looks well-placed against this level of opposition following a five-length win at Moonee Valley, which was mightily impressive.

We’re not surprised to see his odds firm from an opening $3.40.

Stake: 4 Units

Race 8. (17:00) Manhari BM58 (1100m)

#12 – Sontay @ $4.40

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Sontay is much better than what she showed fresh up, but that run came at Caulfield behind some nice types.

She ran behind the likes of Bella Cirque and Escarpa, so dropping to BM58 grade at Ararat could be all she needs to prevail.

Punters get each-way odds to snap up.

Stake: 2 Units
