Winter racing in Victoria heads to Flemington on Saturday for a competitive nine-race program that kicks off at 11:50am AEST. Despite there being no black-type racing on the card, the fields are filled with quality and there is plenty of value to be found. The rail comes out 11m, and although the track was a Soft 5 at the time of acceptances, the forecast suggests there is a chance of starting on a Good 4.
Best Bet at Flemington: Aberfeldie Boy
Having returned with an eye-catching performance at the Flemington 2000m, Aberfeldie Boy steps up to 2540m as he looks to double his win tally. He finished third in the Group 1 VRC Derby (2500m) back in 2022 at this track, while he also found the podium in last year’s South Australian Derby (2500m). He draws to gain every chance in running from barrier one, and with even luck at the top of the home straight, Aberfeldie Boy looks too tough to hold out in this field.
Best Bet
Race 2 – 
#4 Aberfeldie Boy (1)
4yo Gelding | T: Robbie Griffiths & Mathew de Kock | J: Jye McNeil (56.5kg)

Next Best at Flemington: Oak Hill
Having returned with a pair of dynamic victories at Sandown, Mike Moroney’s Oak Hill makes his Flemington debut against a handy Sydney galloper, The Black Cloud. The price discrepancy is ridiculous between the two, and with Blake Shinn on Oak Hill from barrier five, he is sure to take some beating. The three-year-old gelding boasts a big turn of foot for a field like this and should send us home as winners.
Next Best
Race 9 – 
#1 Oak Hill (5)

Best Value at Flemington: My Xanadu
My Xanadu took forever to warm up at Caulfield on June 1, but she got her head when it mattered most and showed enough late to suggest the 2000m will be right up her alley. Linda Meech from barrier three is a notable booking, with the pair likely to dictate proceedings throughout. With the rail out 11m, and the way Flemington ‘circle’ races have suited those on pace, My Xanadu presents superb value with horse racing bookies in the penultimate.
Best Value
Race 8 – 
#9 My Xanadu (3)
3yo Filly | T: Peter Moody & Katherine Coleman | J: Linda Meech (54.5kg)
