Albury betting tips – March 18, 2021
The Albury Racing Carnival is underway for another year with back-to-back meetings on Thursday and Friday. HorseBetting.com.au will bring you all of the best bets and quaddie numbers for the border town’s big week. The track is rated a Good 4 and the rail is in the true position for Albury Mile Day on Thursday, which kicks off at 1:20pm local time with the feature set to jump at 4:35pm.
Albury Mile Best Bet: Newtown Bluebag
The Goulburn-based Emma & Lucy Longmire saddle up their evergreen eight-year-old Newtown Bluebag in Thursday’s Albury Mile feature. The son of Lope De Vega has been racing in some tougher provincial and metropolitan races this campaign in what is his first preparation in nearly 12 months. After running fifth behind Nimalee in March last year, the gelding had a big break in the paddock and now looks ready to peak fourth up at 1600m. With three weeks between runs and dropping back from 1900m to 1600m, Jean Van Overmeire should get him in a lovely spot from barrier 12 and give him the opportunity to prove his class. The fitness edge won’t hurt either.

Best Bet of the Day: Magnavale
Geoff Duryea will send around his last-start Moonee Valley runner-up in the other feature of the day, the Barlens City Handicap over 1175m, and she should be hard to beat. Magnavale ran second at Flemington two starts ago, beaten just over a length when carrying 62kg, before being narrowly defeated by Cielo D’oro at The Valley. She drops 2kg off that run and finds an easier level of racing which should see her lead from barrier to box. Drawn in gate eight under Matthew Cahill, the six-year-old mare will find the front and be too slick.
