Winter Championship Betting - A Dream Day for Punters at Flemington?

Racing action heats up with the running of five separate series finals at Flemington this Saturday. Targeting the day's centrepiece, the Winter Championship, IASbet bookmaker Mark Read is tipping Makeadreamcometrue to do just that for punters - salute at attractive odds in the race.

"Although the wide draw is a valid excuse to not be on Makeadreamcometrue ($7.50), his current form is far superior to those around him. The pace upfront, set by Sand Sweeper ($19.00) and Woodwin ($12.00), will also work in his favour," said Reed.

"Looking at the favourite, there is no doubt that Davcon ($5.00) will be hard to beat, however his value is debatable."

For punters seeking healthy each-way value, or a solid selection for an exotic, Read suggests that Rubijon ($10.00) offers good odds. Inversely, he strongly opposes Gold Salute ($11.00).

"Gold Salute is drawn in an extreme barrier. If he leads, he will be caught wide throughout the race, while if he races back he would give far too great a start to his opponents."
