Betfair Hub: Expert Racing Tips - 3rd September 2025

Best lay bets in Australia for Wednesday, September 3 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

Sandown: Race 6; #18 Chest Of Gold Down Arrow

Another really good race, I thought it was a race in two between Eternal and Deep Pleasure, who were both very impressive winners first-up in the country (Geelong & Sale). I thought that form and late splits were much better than Chest Of Gold, who ran OK first-up at Bendigo but did have pattern in favour.

GREYHOUNDS

The Meadows: Race 4; #8 Whispered Down Arrow

Whispered can take a few strides to get going so Box 8 doesn't really suit her here. She could get posted wide and find herself too far off the lure and that's enough to warrant a Lay bet.

The Meadows: Race 8; #1 Aston Barton Down Arrow

Aston Barton isn't necessarily suited to the inside draw here and his box stats reflect that with only 1 win from 5 starts from the cherry. This is a case of being able to barrack for 3 other winning chances. He's Magic, Annabella Rose and Magic Snowdrop are all capable of winning this and making it a successful Lay.

The Meadows: Race 10; #6 Lilly Loud Mouth Down Arrow

I didn't see enough form Lilly Loud Mouth here last week and I'm happy to take her on. All of these opponents are capable of winning this weak race.
