Saturday Horse Racing Tips at Randwick & Moonee Valley 25/10/25

The Spring Carnival rolls on, and this weekend we’ve got one of the all-time classic doubleheaders: the Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes at Royal Randwick and the Cox Plate at Moonee Valley.

It’s a bittersweet feeling for punters with the Valley undergoing major renovations soon, meaning this will be one of the final meetings we see on the iconic tight-turning track in its current form.

Still, with Group 2s, 3s, and Listed races sprinkled right across both days, it’s a monster weekend of betting action leading us into the best week of the year, Melbourne Cup Week.

Before diving into this week’s plays, let’s take a quick glance in the rearview mirror, because the free tips package was on fire last week.

 

Last Week’s Free Package Winners

• Stretan Angel $10.40
• Rothfire $13.65
• Private Eye $2.10
• Ceolwulf $9.55

Near misses like Just A Journey and Swiftfalcon stung, but overall, it was a cracking day.

And if you were on the Premium Package, you were treated to another 7 winners including Panova $10, Travolta $6, Clear Thinking $3.90, Rey Magnerio $7.30, Ka Ying Rising $1.75, Abounding $2.90, and Wembanyama $1.60.

Now, with confidence sky-high heading into Cup Week, here are this weekend’s plays from Deepspunta18 Horse Racing Tips & Selections — straight from Daniel Pryor himself.
