The following are Australian horse racing tips for Saturday, January 22, 2022. The focus is on the racecards at Moonee Valley and Randwick.
Best Bets denote runners that stand out as the single best selection for their race. Strong Bets denote runners that are strong selections, but the separation between them and next best selection isn’t as strong. It’s not uncommon for us to recommend two Strong Selections for the same race. Quinella and Trifecta recommendations are made for races with multiple key chances.
