Expert Racing Tips - 17th January 2026

Best lay bets in Australia for Saturday, January 17 brought to you by expert form analysts from the Betfair Hub.


Lay bets are an offering unique to Betfair in Australia where punters can bet AGAINST a particular outcome.

THOROUGHBREDS

Flemington: Race 8; #12 Darkbonee Down Arrow

The weight punters and SP profilers are keeping Darkbonee very short in early markets, he did just enough with all favours in a basic race at Geelong last start and the map today looks absolutely horror.

HARNESS

Albion Park: Race 3; #9 Always Dancing Down Arrow

Always Dancing is a former SA pacer with a decent record, didn't offer much first up last week to my eye.
