Sale Racing Tips for Thursday, July 9th 2026

We have expert betting tips for racing at Sale on Thursday, 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) Ladbrokes Hosted Pots Maiden (1213m)

#2 – Cybersecurity @ $3.90

Cybersecurity ran well enough for third on debut at Bendigo, and it holds him in good stead for this race.

The two-year-old colt by Home Affairs was no match for the winner, but we liked the way he found the line over the last 100m.

Jamie Mott is a strong rider, which helps his chances.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (13:30) Ladbrokes Big Bets Copy Now Maiden (1013m)

#7 – Sauvitude @ $3.90

BET NOW

Money has come for Sauvitude to win on debut from the Edward Cummings stable following some good trial performances.

The three-year-old colt by I Am Invincible won a trial at Hawkesbury before narrowly running second in a Caulfield trial.

It’s solid enough form to win on debut, so take the shortening odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (14:00) Ladbrokes Mega Multi Maiden (1429m)

#5 – Jimmy Beans @ $1.75

BET NOW

A runner worth including in multi bets is Jimmy Beans, who owns three second placings from three starts.

The three-year-old son of Redwood posted placings at Sandown, Caulfield, and Wangaratta, so he has faced tough fields throughout his career.

Barrier three is ideal, and it’s another premium ride for Mott.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 4. (14:30) Ladbrokes Popular SRM Maiden (1746m)

#3 – Knights Emperor @ $9.50

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Knights Emperor, who didn’t fire on debut at Beaumont, but he looked better when coming to Victoria.

The Waterhouse/Bott-trained gelding comes off a fifth at Bendigo, and although it was only a moderate run, he will improve from it.

Barrier two is ideal, and punters should expect a tidy effort.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (15:00) RMBL Investments Rising Stars BM62 (1746m)

#6 – Garnacho @ $6.50

BET NOW

Garnacho has been around the mark throughout this preparation, and he could score an overdue win.

The four-year-old son of Ace High doesn’t mind running in heavy conditions with four starts for three placings, so he’ll get through it.

1.5kg comes off his back, so he should be right in the mix.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (15:30) Ladbrokes Place Extra BM62 (1013m)

#10 – She’s Elusive @ $15.00

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for She’s Elusive, who scored back-to-back wins at Albury before running third at Pakenham last time out.

It’s not an easy midweek field, but the four-year-old mare by Lean Mean Machine is capable of figuring in the finish.

We’re happy to include her in picks at the current odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:00) Ladbrokes Owners Promotion BM62 (1213m)

#5 – Too Tough @ $5.50

BET NOW

Too Tough lived up to his name last start with a win at Moe in heavy conditions, and he’s our top pick to go back-to-back.

The four-year-old son of All Too Hard paid $1.90 when winning, and punters get much better odds this time around.

He gets barrier two with Mott riding, so we’re taking the odds.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (16:30) Ladbrokes Odds Surge BM62 (1429m)

#2 – Blue Bandit @ $6.00

BET NOW

Blue Bandit isn’t the most consistent type going around, but his win three back at Pakenham is a good betting guide.

The four-year-old son of Blue Point owns three wins from 11 starts, so his record is solid, and getting the inside draw bodes well.

He’s good enough to beat this field, so take the each-way odds.

Stake: 1 Unit
