It’s the second  time in a week that The Bostonian has been scratched. Had a shocking gate last week too.  When the rail is out at Doomben it makes it even more difficult for those drawn wide. Still, keep an eye out for it. 

Dane Thunder similarly drew wide but usually not an issue at Sandown. That mail came from somebody very closely connected to the horse too. 

Yeah, Dafeenah comes via a very reliable source. Was $9 in this mornings (Brisbane) paper. Tongue tie on may be a key.

 

My best bet for the weekend ...

Randwick Race 6  No.3  Live and Free  $2.50

Not exactly each-way odds but the horse is in fine form and should be getting into the finish with Brenton Avdulla on board.  It's the best bet of a few of the Sydney Sky Racing pundits as well.

You’re spot on Macca, Doomben is shaping up as a really good day for racing. I had a look at the whole card a short time ago and there are some terrific races. 

I have a selection for the McKell Cup. I’m going for a value runner in No.5 Lovani. 

Edit: Did I go too early? Wadda hasn’t declared his pick yet I see. 

Lovani has been scratched so you'll need to have another go DZ

Number 6 Naval Warfare. It was my second pick for the win so it’s worked out in the end.

Lovani lining up at Doomben in race 2. Bit of a nibble for it this morning. Likes to race on the pace too which is an advantage at Doomben today.

Fine morning here in Brisbane although a few clouds building in the south. Might cop a shower or two later this morning but shouldn’t have any bearing on track conditions. The Gold Coast may cop a bit of rain though.

Ok sorry about the late pick, but i wanted to cover all bases. Its a 2 horse race between Andaz and Fifty Stars. Andaz is the better value and the quinella may in fact be the better bet. Good luck fellas.

Best Bets:

Doomben Race 5 No.3 Zousain $3.10

Randwick Race 6  No.3  Live and Free  $2.50

Sandown Race 9 No. Andaz $5.50

$42.62 for your dollar.

Out of Sebring and Black Caviar, that would have been a cheap exercise ?. Ran on well late after slightly missing the start.

Yes thats ok Macca, was going to do that anyway. I like our picks in both.

EDIT: They just said theyre having track problems at Doomben. May have to move the rail out in the back straight and are rolling the track. Last race may be cancelled.

Edited by Wadda We Sing

What’s happening at Doomben? I heard they are repositioning the rail. TAB site is telling me 45 minutes now until the next race.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
