Lay Back

Join Nick Foot, Tom Haylock, and Reece Goodwin for a huge Caulfield Guineas edition of Lay Back with Betfair! The team dives into Group 1 action, offering expert Caulfield Guineas tips and predictions, along with insights for the Might and Power Stakes and Toorak Handicap.

Nick Foot returns after a big weekend off umpiring the AFL Grand Final, but he's prepped and ready to go for a huge weekend of Group 1 racing in Sydney and Melbourne alongside Tom Haylock, and Trent Crebbin from Racing and Sports.

This Saturday is a smorgasbord of racing with the G1 Turnbull Stakes at Flemington, and three G1's in the Flight Stakes, Metropolitan, and Epsom at Royal Randwick. The team preview them all, as well as a couple of G2's and 3's on both cards.

Trent's throwing the Sydney racing schedule in the Lay Bin this week, whilst Footy is stressed with the responsibility of a punters club, and Tom try's to stuff as much in as he possibly can.

What a weekend of racing we have on our hands with the G1 Manikato Stakes at The Valley this Friday night, followed closely by the G1 Golden Rose at Rosehill on Saturday.

Returning from a long and arduous sabbatical is Tom Haylock who takes the reigns of host from Nick Foot this week as he prepares to umpire his first AFL Grand Final. Congratulations Footy! Alongside him is the Equine Genius, Liam Clancey, and making their first appearance on the show, we welcome Trent Crebbin from Racing & Sports.

This week the team has had enough of shopping trolleys, the BOM weather app, and a particular racing guru who recently snubbed a Lay Back panel member...

In the Lay Streak, Tom tries to extend his healthy streak of 1 to 2 this weekend, whilst Clance is operating like a well oiled machine and looks to continue his great Lay betting form, and Trent attempts to kick his campaign off with a bang!

Plenty more on this weeks show so make sure you tune in and hopefully find some strategies with the help of the Lay Back team!

We sat down with brothers Trav and Nick Noonan who have been immersed in the racing industry since they were born. Their father, David Noonan, is a horse trainer, and their mother worked for the Greg Eurell and Pat Hyland stables, so the Noonan's are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Australian thoroughbred racing.

Trav is a form analyst and race-caller, having called his first race at the age of 14, and has also worked for Racing.com and is now a form analyst for RSN. Nick on the other hand has found his feet within the Mounting Yard, quickly become one of Victoria's leading Mounting Yard analysts, working with racing establishments like RSN, Racing.com, and Racing Tasmania.

Both brothers also host their own podcast called 'The Racing Show' in which they discuss all things Australian Horse Racing with Reviews, Previews and everything in between. You can listen to The Racing Show on Patreon and Spotify which are both linked below.

Enjoy this insightful conversation with the Noonan's and learn about their background, how they go about doing form before a race, and why Mounting Yard analysis has become so pivotal within the wagering landscape.

We recently sat down with the creator of FormKing, David Pfundt, to discuss his data analytics platform and how it is revolutionising the horse racing and wagering industries. David is an accomplished software engineer who found his love of wagering when watching the 2015 Cox Plate. From there, he realised he could use his expertise to develop a platform to help punters find an edge. This is how he began FormKing. To date, FormKing has become one of the most well known data platforms for punters and is ever growing.

Listen to David's story, where he plans to head with FormKing in the near future, and why he loves using Betfair over other WSP's.
