David Gately Horse Racing Tips for Flemington 18/7/26

David Gately is starting to warm up for Spring, boasting an enviable 26% Profit on Turnover from 102 tips over the last month.

Keen to keep the good form rolling, he eyes off the action at Flemington this Saturday, where punters can expect a Soft 7 surface and the rail out 3 metres.

The rail was True on Finals Day last meeting, and the track played well that day in both circle races and straight races.

David Gately's Flemington Best Bets for Saturday 18/7/26

Bet Of The Day

Race 6 – #6 Highland Blaze $3.80

The 6yo gelding from the Shane Jackson stable was cut out when closing two-back at this track.

He then returned here 2nd-up and was ridden a long a way out, but simply outstayed them and was strong over the line.

The extra 200m for this assignment is only a bonus and I expect him to make it two on the bounce.

Best Value Bet

Race 7 – #4 Moby Dick $8.00

Moby Dick won well here 2nd-up over the 1200m, and then drew the wrong spot two back when finishing 3 lengths back.

He then put in a good effort in the Santa Ana Lane Final last start when finising fourth against a walking tempo.

$8 look some value for this runner who is proven in the wet here.
