Taree Racing Tips for Friday, August 14th 2026First race in 10h 0m

We have expert betting tips for racing at Taree on Friday, which includes eight races at the quality meeting.

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

Race 1. (12:30) DDH1 Drilling Maiden (1000m)

#3 - Fratianno @ $2.10

BET NOW

Money has come for Fratianno, who is getting close to winning after posting seven placings from 17 starts.

The five-year-old son of Star Witness has form on rain-affected tracks, and he won’t take much longer to exit maiden grades.

The $2.10 odds are good enough to include in horse racing multi bets.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (13:05) Dean Mills Plumbing Maiden (1250m)

#7 - Raguel @ $4.40

BET NOW

Raguel showed better speed when running third at Port Macquarie last start, which should be a good form guide.

The three-year-old son of Harry Angel comes out of the same race as Fratianno, so the first race should give punters an insight.

The odds are good for an even betting affair, so include him in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (13:40) MLW Fencing C1 (1600m)

#5 - Surpasser @ $5.50

BET NOW

Kris Lees lines up Surpasser, who got back to form with a third placing at Port Macquarie last time out.

The four-year-old son of Exceedance owns a win and two placings from seven starts overall, so his record is coming along nicely.

If he can get a good run from out wide, he should be competitive.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (14:15) Synergy Resource Management Tradies Cup BM58 (2000m)

#3 - Dark Justice @ $4.00

BET NOW

We expect late money to come for Dark Justice, who comes off three placings at Muswellbrook, Scone, and Port Macquarie.

The four-year-old son of Justify looked good when winning on debut, and it’s only a matter of time before he wins again.

The inside draw is ideal, so the $4 odds are worth snapping up.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 5. (14:55) Mackies Concrete Pumping C2 (1400m)

#5 - I Am Steffi @ $2.90

BET NOW

I Am Steffi has shown excellent form this preparation after scoring at Grafton and Port Macquarie, so she’s the one to beat.

The four-year-old mare by Graff owns two wins and two second placings from eight starts, which is a tidy record for this level of racing.

She gets the inside draw, and that could be enough to see her win again.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (15:35) RDO Equipment Taree BM82 (1000m)

#1 - Shaggy @ $4.60

BET NOW

Shaggy has loads of speed, and although his form has tapered off, we’re hoping he can get back to his best.

The four-year-old son of Sandbar owns three wins from 16 starts, with two wins coming on soft tracks, so that’s ideal form.

2kg comes off his back, and that’s enough for us to include him in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:10) Hopkins Livermore Cup (1400m)

#3 - Zaru @ $7.00

BET NOW

Zaru comes off a second placing at Muswellbrook, and he’s not far away from posting another win.

The nine-year-old has loads of experience on his record, including four wins and 12 placings from 19 starts at Taree.

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

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (16:50) Tanks 2 Go C1 (1000m)

#11 - Sinfull @ $3.20

BET NOW

Money has come for Sinfull, who won at Grafton two starts back before placing last time out at Grafton.

The four-year-old mare by Sun City was only a half-length behind the winner as a $1.75 chance last start, so punters are sticking with her.

55.5kg on her back is enough to take her close.

Stake: 1.5 Units
