About Our Canberra Tipster
Steve Bennett is RacingBase’s resident form analyst for all ACT meetings. Focusing on one state (ACT) gives Steve an edge when it comes to knowing the form of each and every runner going around in ACT. His Canberra Tips generally include a Best Bet, Next Best and Best Value, and sometimes he will throw out an extra tip or two if something appeals. Steve and the rest of the RacingBase team used a comprehensive data subscription to provide them with information and statistics that aren’t available to the average punter due to the high cost of acquiring the information. We pass that information on to the punter in form of benchmark (BM) performance ratings which are calculated against historical data for each track, distance, conditions, wind speed and more.

Tips for Betting on Canberra Multiples
Daily Double
The Daily Double is a horse racing bet that offers the potential for a big payout. It is usually the fourth and third last race of every meeting. To win, punters must select the winner of two races. While this may sound easy, it can be quite difficult to pick two winners in a row. As such, the Daily Double generally doesn’t pay out very much.
However, the potential payoff can be significant if you are able to select the winners of both races. When placing a Daily Double bet, it is important to limit your selections to just a few runners in each race. This will help to improve your chances of picking two winners and hitting the jackpot.
Treble
The Treble is an extension of the Daily Double and is usually offered at the fourth, third and second last race of each meeting. The Treble will more than likely pay more than the Daily Double but this isn’t always the case if a favourite takes out the third leg.
It’s important to remember that with a Treble, as with any multiple bet, only one selection needs to lose for the entire bet to lose so it’s important to choose your selections carefully. It can be tempting to include a couple of ‘sure things’ in your Treble but this usually means smaller odds and a smaller payout so it’s often better to include a couple of outsiders to increase your potential winnings.
Of course, this is all down to personal preference and some people prefer to play it safe while others like to take a bit more of a risk – it’s all part of the fun of racing!
Quadrella
The Quadrella, more commonly known as the ‘Quaddie’, is a popular bet type for horse racing punters around Australia. A Quaddie bet requires punters to select the winner of four consecutive races, typically the last four races of the day.
The payouts for a successful Quaddie bet can be significant, often reaching into the thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. Given the difficulty of correctly predicting the winner of four races in a row, it is often advisable for punters to take a strategic approach to Quaddie betting.
One strategy is to focus on having limited numbers of competitors in the first few legs of the Quaddie, then go wide with your selections in the final leg. Another useful tip is to include a few roughies (underdog runners) in your selections, as this can lead to big payouts if they are successful. By following these tips, you can increase your chances of winning big on the Quadrella.
