Ballarat Synthetic Racing Tips for Tuesday, July 14th 2026

We have expert betting tips for racing at Ballarat Synthetic on Tuesday, which includes eight races at the quality meeting.

Punters get good value odds for the Victorian meeting, and we have betting tips for every race on the card.

Race 1. (13:00) Mortimer Petroleum Maiden (1000m)

#1 – Cacchione @ $3.90

BET NOW

Cacchione hasn’t been far away this preparation, including a second placing at Ballarat Synthetic last time out.

The three-year-old son of Super One owns three placings from six starts overall, and this isn’t a tough maiden field.

His odds are shortening, so jump on the current price.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (13:30) Global Turf Maiden (1200m)

#5 – Commandeur @ $10.00

BET NOW

Punters get double-figure odds for Commandeur, who produced his best effort when second at Pakenham Synthetic last time out.

The three-year-old son of Tagaloa was only a short margin behind the winner as a $51 chance, and his confidence levels will be higher now.

Given the odds, we’re including him in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (14:00) Brandt Maiden (1400m)

#2 – Done My Job @ $2.70

BET NOW

Done My Job could get the job done following a second placing at Ballarat Synthetic, where he was only narrowly beaten on the line.

The three-year-old gelding by Nicconi was close behind Contours, who has since run well, and having John Allen riding helps.

Punters should expect him to settle handy and kick well.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 4. (14:30) Manhari Maiden (1500m)

#5 – Julep @ $7.00

BET NOW

Julep hasn’t shown much in two career starts, but punters could see quick improvement from the filly.

The three-year-old daughter of Wootton Bassett ran seventh at Ballarat last start, but they often improve quickly for trainer Taige Weir.

We’re happy to take the risk and include her in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (15:00) Global Turf BM70 (1500m)

#4 – Brave Mission @ $8.50

BET NOW

The former European hasn’t been given much chance to win since arriving in Australia, but with a change of fortunes could come a victory.

He has battled on gamely in runs at Swan Hill and Pakenham, and a positive ride coupled with a rise in distance could be enough to see him win.

Punters get value odds, and he’s a runner worth sticking with.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (15:30) Hygain Edge BM66 (2100m)

#2 – Gates @ $4.60

BET NOW

Gates is taking his time to score another win, but after running second at Pakenham last time out, he could go one better.

The five-year-old son of Frankel has yet to run at the track, but switching to synthetic racing could be what he’s after.

The each-way odds are good enough to include him as a value bet.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:00) Sportsbet Blackbook BM62 (1000m)

#2 – Mafee @ $4.50

BET NOW

Seeking back-to-back wins is Mafee, who showed toughness to score at Pakenham.

The five-year-old son of Akeed Mofeed is a three-time winner overall, and all those wins have come on synthetic tracks.

He gets another suitable race here, so he’s worth backing.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (16:30) Hygain Edge BM62 (1200m)

#2 – Audio Pop Cam @ $4.20

BET NOW

Boasting three wins from six starts is Audio Pop Cam, who kicked things off this prep with a win at Ballarat Synthetic.

It was an excellent run following a spell, and the three-year-old filly will only improve with that effort under her belt.

2kg comes off her back, so she’s well-weighted to win.

Stake: 1.5 Units
