A Day at the Races

Thinking about it all, the transgression seems out of character for Jamie Kah

Quietly spoken, level headed, grounded and a real sensible type

Then again, they probably just got on the drink and we all know where that can lead!

Ha ha!

Ended up taking a wide exacta in the Memsie Stakes ... could pay ok with the right combo

Good luck to all today!

The With 12 horses I wouldn’t be surprised to see 6-7 cross witching a head of each other, but if all ran their best race I reckon behemoth wins.

Yep, the big boy is a star of the turf.  Behemoth too good and Prebble rode it like it was the best horse in the race. 

Prebble picks ip $30k with a sling ... Jamie looks on forlornly!! That's racing!

Beau was very brave with Tofane 3rd in a truly run race.  The first 3 - all class

Beau did me proud. Love Behemoth but I think I love Beau more. Linda rode well, had to come so wide. 
I have been having a mare but I had some on Behemoth and I put Aegon in my f4 when Sierra Sue went out. 41% of that make the day a nice one.

Excellent result Gorg

I got the exacta twice and a big percentage of the trifecta ... needed Inspirational Girl to get into the finish for a bigger pay day

Beau got the 1400m alright and hit the line like a good horse.  So 1200m up to 1400m.  The mile might be a tad too far but I wouldn't rule that distance out

Good to hear.

tbh I thought 1400 was stretching it, I’d like to see a few more at 1400 and see how Beau goes.

Mark Zahra out for the Spring as well now as he attended the same get-together (it's been discovered)

Latest story is that all 5 jockeys might get an extra month for not being honest about it all. 

The Stewards have a history of being heavy handed for these types of things so why would anyone take them on?  Strange goings-on

Best Bet Saturday Randwick

Race 4 no 4 $6 Super Effort win

 

With a boost about 30-1 can be had for the double

I like 'Elephant' in the Feehan St but it's a wide open race.  Streets can get into the finish as it is drawn the inside and likes to lead.  25-1? 

And at the Valley that can be a really advantage.  'Elephant' has drawn a great gate (1) as it too likes to lead

My value runner is Sovereign Award at 25-1 as well

Exotics could pay very well

I too like Elephant. And with some Rain coming I think it’s in very good position.

Portland Sky and September Run resume against each other. Both short odds. I miss the $8+ I was getting on Portland Sky. It was easy money 🤣

Mates horse Facemask runs here in Race two. Was originally going to Adelaide (second fav) but with the rain coming here trainer said run it at MV. He thinks it’s a very good chance. At $10 at the min. 
Only second run under the new trainer but it ran its best race last win.  Big field and I’ll be following it closely

Good start to the day ... 'Forgot You' flies home to win.  Soft7 at the Valley but strong headwind in the straight

Sierra Sue dreadfully unlucky in the Feehan St.  I didn't have it included in my multiples but I reckon if it gets through it goes close

Superstorm wins and now gets a run in the Cox Plate but McAvaney reckons it's more suited to the mile

Underwood Stakes (1800m) on GF day is next up for Superstorm according to the trainer.  'Elephant' ran well and looks a group horse of the future

Up in Sydney 'Nature Strip' & Zaaki did as they pleased to both win impressively.  The Everest & Cox Plate long term targets ... both installed as favourites

I had Sierra Sue with Elephant, Superstorm and Nonconformist as my f4.

Nature and Zaaki trotted past them like it was nothing. 
 

Don’t doubt Dory also ran a good race yesterday and Geist impressed me.

lol, I haven’t even had a chance to look yet 😁

 

Apart from the open betting race that the  Makybe Diva Stakes is,  there are some real shorties running around @ HQ on Saturday

But they might all win ... Ingratiating, Artorius & Ayrton are all odds-on in their respective races!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
