Betfair Hub: Expert Racing Tips - 15th October 2025

Best lay bets in Australia for Wednesday, October 15 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

Caulfield: Race 3; #5 Shadhavar Down Arrow

Shadhavar is in good form but won with pattern on side at this track/trip last start, I think she likely less suited here being rails in run with Surfin' Bird likely getting the spot outside leader. Yes Lulu was terrific first-up and is likely to get into the better lanes in the straight.

GREYHOUNDS

Ballarat: Race 4; #4 Aston Countach Down Arrow

Aston Countach looked like a superstar when winning on debut but has been disappointing ever since. Dropping back in distance, a squeeze draw and plenty of pace drawn around him all look like negatives and I'll be taking him on here.

Ballarat: Race 5; #5 Especial Kai Down Arrow

Especial Kai was brilliant at Bendigo last start but this is another level up. There's so much pressure drawn underneath here that this could get messy.

Ballarat: Race 9; #7 Aussie Classic Down Arrow

Aussie Classic won a very ordinary Maiden on debut and everything went right for it. There's enough pressure underneath him that he may struggle to find the early lead this time around.

HARNESS

Bendigo: Race 8; #1 Military Merit Down Arrow

Honest type but there is a bit of depth in this race & I'm not sure if the draw will be enough to help tonight. Looks a risk.
