Check out all the hits and misses from some of the reported big bets from Saturday’s racing.
HITS
$4000 @ $2.70 Rosehill Race 6 No.5 Rediener (Palmerbet)
$2800 @ $3.30 Rosehill Race 6 No.5 Rediener (TAB)
$1000 @ $3.20 Rosehill Race 6 No.5 Rediener (Pointsbet)
Crunched in betting late to start odds on and ran accordingly. With Jasper Franklin taking a spot up on the pace, Rediener travelled well into the straight and proved too quick to run down.

$5000 @ Best Tote SP ($3.50) Doomben Race 9 No 1 Fireburn (TopSport)
The 2022 Golden Slipper winner was well backed to score in The Roses and it was an easy watch as the Gary Porteli-trained mare held off Renaissance Woman to score.
$15,000 @ Best Tote SP ($2.40) Belmont Race 7 No.8 Vast Art (TopSport)
Easy watch for this punter who took the short odds about the Darren McAullife-trained Vast Art late in the day at Belmont.
$2000 @ $3.10 Rosehill Race 1 No.2 Celestial Legend (Palmerbet)
He was always travelling well but had no where to go as they rounded the bend. Dylan Gibbons tried to take an inside run which closed on him but he managed to push him to the outside at the 200m mark and it was game over from there.
LOSSES
$10,000 @ $1.85 Doomben Race 7 No.1 Zaaki (Pointsbet)
$7500 @ $2 Doomben Race 7 No.1 Zaaki (Neds)
$5000 @ $2.05 Doomben Race 7 No.1 Zaaki (Palmerbet)
$3000 @ $2 Doomben Race 7 No.1 Zaaki (TAB)
Doomben Race 7 No.1 Zaaki $1500 @ $1.95 (Ladbrokes)
Big result for the bookies with Zaaki failing to fire in the Group 1 Doomben Cup. He led them up but had no fight in the straight.

$10,000 @ $3.50 Flemington Race 6 No.4 Convener (Sportsbet)
$4000 @ $3.80 Flemington Race 6 No.4 Convener (TAB)
Late drifter out to $5 and failed to fire when finishing a long way off the winner, beaten close to seven lengths.
$5000 @ Best Tote SP ($7) Gold Coast Race 3 No.8 Painful (TopSport)
Six start maiden was the best backed runner in the race but failed to finish among the placings.
$15,000 @ Best Tote SP ($3.60) Flemington Race 9 No 4 Dazzling Lucy (TopSport)
Couldn’t reel in South Of Houston in the last at Flemington as the Tony Noonan-trained mare stuck on to run fourth.
