Port Augusta Horse Racing Tips Sun 7/6/26

Where’s the value at Port Augusta today? Two races out of seven we’re keen on, and the rest can wait. Figo The Great in Race 3 at $5.50 is the one we like best, with a roughie chance in the opener as well. Track’s Good and the weather’s fine, so no excuses for the Flying Doctor Cup either.

3. Road To The City $8.50

Barrier 9 · Off Pace · No leader

#3 Road To The City at $8.50 is where the value sits. The favourite is $3.90 and has to lead in a race with no clear speed up front, so she could end up doing the work and getting picked off late. Road To The City comes back fresher after a freshen, the tongue tie goes on, and from gate 9 he can drop in behind and pick them off when they tire. I’m with him each-way.

3. Figo The Great $5.50

Barrier 8 · Midfield · Soft pace

$2.05 the favourite? Pass. Carashan Chloe sits midfield in a race with no genuine speed, the same map as #3 Figo The Great at $5.50. Figo wears the blinkers, Stojakovic rides, and won three back. Nearly three times the quote on a horse with the same trip. I’m on him.
