This Australia Day, Wednesday 26 January, is the perfect time to enjoy a snag or chop and it is also a great day to enjoy a punt with a range of top races taking place including the $100,000 Listed Australia Day Cup (2400m) at Warwick Farm and here you will find the best 2011 Australia Day Cup betting tips.

The 2011 Australia Day Cup, scheduled to run as Race 6 at Warwick Farm Racecourse tomorrow at 3:42pm (AEDST), has attracted a final field of 10 gallopers with Agent Bauer and Strike One the equal $3.10 favourites at Luxbet.

Chris Waller’s seven-year-old Strike One is drawn ideally in barrier two and at their last run back on Boxing Day they placed a close second at Group 3 level in the Summer Cup (2400m).

Agent Bauer may be out a little wider in barrier nine, but over the distance this is no issue, and looking at the recent form off this promising Jeune gelding coming off two wins they have real claims here.

However, the Races.com.au team fancy a slightly longer-priced contender in the Australia Day Cup this year and have #2 Bid Spotter rated special to win.

• Races.com.au Favourite: #2 Bid Spotter – Rated Special to win at $6.50 through Luxbet
