Getting in early this week but I've had my eye on this horse and this race (Sydney Cup) for quite some time.

Godolphin,  Charlie Appleby and fresh off a 2 mile triumph at Meydan (Dubai)  Odds may drift too as it opened at $3

Best Bet

Randwick Race 8 No.10 Dubhe $3.70

    I notice Ace High is not running and was originally being set for that race Macca. The Sydney mud has just killed him.

     

    Best Bet:

    Randwick Race 9 No 17 Fundamentalist (Plc) $4.60

    76 placings from 114 starts is pretty damn good really. 1.5 winners from every 2 picks.

    I've done the early double from our 3 picks again Wadda (Saccharo & Dubhe)

    I don't want to be posting up 'That's 2 from 2!' without having a small wager on that possible/probable outcome.  Got about 14-1 for the 2 (boosted)  The 3 together offers fantastic value (68-1 non boosted)  I like to have 1 or 2  double's anyway so I thought I'd use our choices. 

    It promises to be a great days racing where it looks like we'll get a decent track at Randwick (finally) whilst there's some very competitive racing at Caulfield and also,  there are 5 Black-type/Stakes races at Morphettville.  As usual,  I'll be using Gator & JJ's tips as a decent guide. 

    Racenet Form Guide - All Races Saturday

    There are a lot of very good betting races and of course,  the mighty mare Winx makes her final appearance. 

    JJ's tips (Racing.com - Morphettville) should be up by 10.00am tomorrow but here are Gator's tips (below)... lots of value again.  I use their tips to help with exactas with a couple/few win bets on their value picks.

    Are Ladbrokes having any Winx specials today? Remember last time it was 2/1 up to $20. Who ever thought up that one must have been sacked....

    Sign up with Neds Wadda, they have the ‘ Winx Triple The Winnings’ promo. The $1.30 up from $1.10 is very enticing. Would have been nice to have this promo when she won her first Cox at $6.

    Good luck all, off to paintball for a 13th. I’m going to have some fun today, payback time ?.

    Looks like Ladbrokes had a few specials but they finished at 11am. One of them was to Bowman to ride 3 or more winners. 4/1.

    I think i will just throw Winx into my Multis as even though its 1.06 it can still boost a 3 or 4 leg multi by 5 or 6/1.

    JJ's tips at Morphettville - some excellent value to be found if he is on the money today.

    Yes some great value there just looking through Macca. How do you like to use the 4 tips? I usually just look at the top 2 i guess, throw them in some type of exotic or parlay a few.

    Does he have a BB for the day?

    His best bet got scratched out of the 6th race Wadda (Cool Passion)

    I do multiple exactas/trifectas so I look at all 4 of his tips in any given race ... but I only bet on the good betting races so if there is a shortie in any given race,  I ignore the race.

     Hadn't checked the other best bets before posting, but was going to pick dubhe too Macca. 

    Unusually for me I've done my selection At randwick based on a swoopers track. I just think randwick struggles to come up week to week,  particularly after rain, and the track will be hard to lead on. Two races in and seems to be the right play with horses getting home from tbe rear. Makes for a tough tough day with value winners

    I normally put our best 3 altogether so that anybody can quickly see what horses were selected. All you have to do is scroll back a few from the last post. They are normally up by Friday night.

    Randwick? You said Eagle Farm? Anyway, not to worry. Thanks for contributing to the thread Binman. I think a few of us will probably give it a bit of a rest over winter as well. See you in the Spring hopefully. Feel free to join us over on Monkey Business for any sporting tips you may have. Go Dees.

    I think BM meant his 'other' bets at Randwick

    And if it is a swoopers track,  Winx should win in a canter ... drawn the outside barrier too so ideal

    Ok thanks Macca. The 2 favs saluting the first 2 @ Morphettville i see.

    Winx looked pretty lively the other night on the news. Think all the cameras upset her. Quite a mean kick in that hind leg. Who gonna come 2nd is slightly intriguing? Im not sure i can remember Harlem and Hartnell going H2H before.

    She did whack that metal gate/fence very hard ... probably of no concern but it's the first slight hiccup since the horse was locked away on the inside in the Turnbull last Spring.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
