They just interviewed the trainer of Shelby Sixtysix (Danny Williams) on 'After the Last' on the racing channel ... what a fantastic story!

The show is repeated at 9pm tonight unless you've caught hold of it already

The horse is now going to run in the TJ Smith! 

By the way, I recouped very well at Sha Tin yesterday (thanks to Moreira & Purton) ... I pulled the right reigns!

I saw him interviewed straight after the race. They asked then what they would do with the horse.

TJ Smith eh. Well that’s one race I don’t have to think about who I’m betting on 🤣

Mornington Race 7 no 1 the Astrologist $4W

The Astologist is also entered in the $1Million William Reid St on Friday night ... and has drawn nicely in the No.1 barrier (and is an on-pacer on a tight-turning track - ideal)

Although, Marabi is a big big chance to win the Reid St so everything else is possibly running for 2nd!

Best Bet Saturday 

Morphetville Race 5 No.1 Max Fire

6.50 W - 2.20 P

At this stage The Astrologist is still in tonight's field (William Reid St.) so I'd say it's out of tomorrow's Hareeba St.

But no rush on another pick Gorg as it hasn't been scratched yet

Happy to wait until tomorrow for the final pick

I’ll have a look at maybe have a backup ready.

 

So I had two black bookers in that race, Astrologist and September run… guess which one I backed… 😩

Hindsight tells us that The Astrologist should have been held over to tomorrow!

Marabi end of prep?  Certainly got run over by nearly every runner

September Run back to her best though - ran really well in the Newmarket ... that was the pointer.

I had SR included in a trifecta but didn't really get close.  Big dividends in the exotics ... even the quinella paid 450!

Yeah I had Ast, SRand Marabi in the Tri. Marabi got blitzed. Astrologist seemed t9 have no idea what to do or where to go as it hit the corner. SR hit it perfectly. 

The. F4 paid over 128k

Was on Daisies in the last ... overs?

Handy collect and got a 3 leg place multi up as well ... in front going into tomorrow!

@Macca. @Dee Zephyr

change mine from Astrologist to La Mexicana, same race. W. 6.50 (R7 No.6)

Handy dividend with all 3 winning - 190-1!

Don't rule out the place multi either ... about 9-1

But all 3 can win if they all bring their best.  Fingers crossed!

Good luck punters!

Rosehill abandoned

I wonder when they will race these Group races?  Maybe at another track in the next few days?

Yeah maybe Newcastle? Or just somewhere it’s not raining all the bloody time


Massive delays to race 7 with Signoore fox, La Mexicana has had the saddle removed as it’s sweating up big time. Not ideal. 

La Mex late scratching!

So all my multis, running double, trifecta all cooked. What happened to it? 

Sweated up and then played up at the barriers ... vets decided to scratch the horse

Why wasnot signoire fox scratched, they walked the bloody thing up half the track making it a late jump. That was baffling.

7 races from the Rosehill card today to be run at Newcastle on Monday

 

Damian Lane rides the winner of the UAE Derby (Crown Pride) ... another top Japanese stayer

Previously Damian Lane has ridden some big winners in Japan so he's been sought out again

The horse might be now running in the Kentucky Derby so Damian could be engaged to ride the horse in that time-honoured classic

That would be great to see.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
