Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 15 Journalists Share Posted March 15 What Yarra Valley Cup Day 2025 Where Yarra Valley Racing – Armstrong Grove, Yarra Glen VIC 3775 When Sunday, March 16, 2025 First Race 12:40pm AEDT Visit Dabble Country Cup racing in Victoria heads to Yarra Valley on Sunday afternoon, where the Yarra Valley Cup (1950m) headlines the eight-race meeting. Plenty of rain is forecast for race day, meaning the Good 4 track rating at the time of acceptances is unlikely to stand true. The rail will stick to its true position, with the opening event set to jump at 12:40pm AEDT. Yarra Valley Cup Tip: Claidheamh Mor Despite being first-up from a 45-week spell, the Gemma Rielly-trained Claidheamh Mor represents great value with horse racing bookmakers in the 2025 Yarra Valley Cup. A three-time winner when fresh from a spell, the son of Dundeel is set to get conditions that will suit him perfectly. He has three wins and a second from four runs on Heavy decks, with one of those coming when first-up into a campaign. Drawn in barrier one, Carleen Hefel will look to dictate terms throughout, and if Claidheamh Mor is ready to strike first-up, he will take some catching. Yarra Valley Cup Race 7 – #1 Claidheamh Mor (1) 6yo Gelding | T: Gemma Rielly | J: Carleen Hefel (58kg) Best Bet at Yarra Valley: On Broadway On Broadway has not done much wrong through his two-start career and third-up into her initial campaign; the 1950m looks ideal. The three-year-old filly looks to be a bit of a dour one-paced stayer, and from barrier four with Craig Newitt on board, the plan looks simple: jump, lead win. ‘Froggy’ Newitt should get a relatively uncontested lead out in front, and if he can have his rivals off the bit on the home turn, On Broadway will prove too hard to run down. Best Bet Race 1 – #8 On Broadway (4) 3yo Filly | T: Lloyd Kennewell & Lucy Yeomans | J: Craig Newitt (57kg) Next Best at Yarra Valley: Watch Capital Watch Capital caught the eye when flashing home late after missing the start over the 1000m at this track on February 22. The on Capitalist budled the start, but the fact he finished 1.6 lengths off the winner suggests he was worth following. John Allen will look to stalk the lead from barrier four, and as long as Watch Capital jumps better from the barriers, he has the superior turn of foot in the race and looks hard to hold out. Next Best Race 2 – #4 Watch Capital (4) 3yo Gelding | T: Mitchell Freedman | J: John Allen (59kg) Sunday quaddie tips for Yarra Valley Yarra Valley quadrella selections Sunday, March 16, 2025 2-3-5-7-8 1-3-4-5-6 1-2-4-5-6-8 1-2-6-7 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
