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!

    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

    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

    @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?

    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!

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

    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: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
