Sunday best bets from David Taggart and Sam Hyland (12/04)
David Taggart and Sam Hyland have your Sunday sorted on Trackside!
See their best bets below:👇
David Taggart
WELLINGTON
Race 2 | 3. Jasper's Way
Wins this by default. Was thrown in the deep end when trying to qualify for the Country Championships last start and he never disgraced himself. Finds his race here.
Race 6 | 1. Perfumist
Won’t know herself in this Wellington Cup. Been racing against and has had a win over G1 winner Idle Flyer. Gets a 3 kilo claim in Liberty Smyth who is looking for her biggest win of her short career. Jump lead win.
GUNDAGAI
Race 1 | 1. Sneaky Pee Cee
Went out hard first-up and knocked up as quick. Back to the 1000m suits and he strips fitter for that run.
Race 7 | 2. Star Buyer
Very even race this Gundagai Cup. I’ve landed on No.2 Star Buyer. Soft track suits and he’s a winner over the course being strong at the end of 1800m than most of these. Draws soft and should get the run of the race.
TERANG
Race 7 | 9. Unseen Ruler
Just missed out on the Stawell Cup last week and he can go one better here as the heavy track brings him right into this. Draws the middle and he carries the minimum which is a big help.

Sam Hyland
WELLINGTON
Race 7 | 9. I'm A Beaut
Has the perfect record & was a good winner first time out, he will have taken confidence from that & from gate 1 gets a sweet run.
GUNDAGAI
Race 8 | 4. Soul Lady
Lady is back on grade & is ready to hit form, should have tightened from 2 runs in & draws soft to get a good run.
HOBART
Race 4 | 4. Veins Within Rock
Is up to the 2000m which is what he is looking for, if he gets it soft the first half he will be strong on the way home.
TERANG
Race 5 | 2. Boga Legend
Is a duck so he will swim through this heavy ground, his runs this preparation have been good & he is ready to salute.
SWAN HILL
Race 5 | 1. Flashlight
Form is hard to fault as he is always there abouts & the trip won’t be a worry. Brad is riding well & will be strong at the end.
ROCKHAMPTON
Race 5 | 6. Pride Of Venus
Is racing well & gets in nicely with the claim, should be hard to beat.
SUNSHINE COAST
Race 3 | 5. Laydownlily
Should be running well on the home track & was sound last start at Eagle Farm.
PORT AUGUSTA
Race 3 | 4. Toorak Blaze
This is easier & he has been a winner here before, looks the right race with a good run.
All the best punters!
