Biography
My first official post in the thoroughbred industry was as a steward in the Northern Territory before making the move back down to Victoria in 2014. I've had numerous roles across the racing industry over the last decade in bloodstock, form analysis and the media, although my position in recent years has been focusing on meeting/feature race analysis, tips and news.

By Alex Marsh| bets.com.au@ Geelong Best Bet - Race 5 No. 14 Dancing DollyShe's frustrated punters with defeats at short prices in her last three runs, although Dancing Dolly hasn't finished out of the money in five starts and her Cranbourne return was strong. The three-year-old was a notable drifter in the market for that April 4 resumption, where she came from back in the field vs the race shape (winner sat outside of the leader, runner-up box-seated).
By Alex Marsh| bets.com.au@ Newcastle Best Bet - Race 1 No. 3 OffenbachTrainer Michael Freedman has prepared 55 winners this season at a very good strike-rate of 21% and from 23 starters in April, he's had seven winners (31%) and six placegetters. Michael Freedman is one of the more prominent juvenile trainers and Offenbach did show potential on debut when runner-up behind Blitzburg, who was a Group 3 winner in February.
By Alex Marsh| bets.com.au@ Asfoora (barrier 14) made it a successful Australian return when winning the R N Irwin Stakes first-up on April 12 and that Group 3 event is one the traditional lead-up races to the Robert Sangster Stakes. The Henry Dwyer-trained mare campaigned in England last year and over Royal Ascot 2024, she became the sixth Australian winner of the King Charles III Stakes (formely King's Stand Stakes). 1200m looks the main query for Asfoora, as she hasn't won in three prior attempts over this distance.
