Betfair Hub: Expert Racing Tips - 6th August 2025

Best lay bets in Australia for Wednesday, August 6 brought to you by expert form analysts from the Betfair Hub.


Lay bets are an offering unique to Betfair in Australia where punters can bet AGAINST a particular outcome.

THOROUGHBREDS

Canterbury: Race 3; #13 Southern Heiress Down Arrow

A handful of the runners in this race are coming in off the back of wins and at a good level of fitness now. SOUTHERN HEIRESS feels as if she will require a solid step up to rise from her maiden win into benchmark grade today. She maps well here yes, but rising against seasoned horses and fit horses it feels a risk to take her at the shorter price on a heavy track with a tougher pressure expected in this.

GREYHOUNDS

Rockhampton: Race 8; #3 Slick Ram Down Arrow

SLICK RAM (3) is racing in good form winning three of his past five starts. With this, his price is starting to appear on the rock bottom side for a dog who is only fair out of the boxes. PENNY DAZE (1), VELOCITY COMMIT (4) and BAREFOOT ROGUE (8) are all likely to lead him early. This will present quite the challenge for SLICK RAM (3) as he'll have to weave through runners to score. Appears short enough.
