And it's not over yet!  Caulfield Saturday and it will be an interesting experiment by the MRC with regards to moving the Thousand Guineas from mid October

So there's 3 good betting races (2 at G1 level) to round out the Spring carnival (although the Perth summer carnival at Ascot does provide some keen and competitive racing)

Anyway, here are the 3 races and odds

Yes and will be kept to 1400m-1600m races.

Top shelf WFA races over 2000m are too much for him.

J-Mac starts his 6 week stint in Hong Kong as of tomorrow (Sha Tin) and he's got a full book of rides aside from R1

James & Zac Purton could dominate proceeding tomorrow as both jockeys are riding on any number of genuine winning chances

I quite like 'Mr Trafficanti' in R3 Caulfield on Saturday for a bit of each-way value 11.00/3.00

Well in at the weights and racing well

Damien Oliver goes out in absolute style!! 

Rides 3 winners with his last 3 mounts and saves the best until last 

Rides Munhamek to win in the aptly named $1.5Million Damien Oliver Gold Rush

Picks up $40k plus the sling

A champion dismounts for the final time

Wow!!

Barassi (the horse) is well worth following after it's very impressive win today

2nd start wins $147k up at the Gold Coast for the connections, smashed the clock and won by 4.5 lengths with Craig Williams on board

Sired by I Am Invincible

Don't often back roughies but Rich Fortune can run into the money if it can handle the pressure of a G1 race.  Been running excellent times at G3 & Listed level

Flemington R8 No.6

Rich Fortune $150/$15

Good card at Caulfield today. Reckon Rey Magnerio might go OK.

Geez I Am Velvet has no clue, but very promising.

Here's a series of podcasts that are well worth a listen.  Most enthralling! 

From the Great Bookie robbery as well as various tales of ring-ins & rorts in the horse racing industry

Not overly long either so packed full of interest from a bygone era

The Game Podcast Series (Dr Turf, Andrew Rule & Various Guests)

The time honoured G1 Moir Stakes to run this Saturday - The Dash for Cash!

The older horses vs the 3yo's

A decent betting race so the exotics could produce a nice dividend (More so the Trifecta or F4)

 

Moir Stakes 2024 Field

1000m Race at Moonee Valley Racecourse

Race Time: 4:50 pm
September 7, 2024
I-WISH-I-WIN.jpeg
1. I Wish I Win (5)
J: Luke Nolen
 
T: Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman
 
W: 58.5kg
Best Odds: $4.50
Rating: 
COMMENT: I remember last year, Peter Moody said about I Wish I Win that when he resumed in the Memsie, he didn’t need to be wound right up for it given it was 1400m and that there was petrol in the tank. 12 months, here he is resuming at 1000m and I reckon he’s wound right up. His jumpout work has been strong and last time he was at the 1000m, his run in the Lightning was incredible. If he handles the track and is within range, look out.
 
MORNINGTON-GLORY-.jpeg
2. Mornington Glory (5)
J: Ethan Brown
 
T: Gavin Bedggood
 
W: 58.5kg
Best Odds: $17
Rating: 
COMMENT: Mornington Glory has been a revelation the last 6-12 months and is clearly liking The Valley so he has earned a crack. Lot to like about his Carlyon won two weeks back, sitting off speed, making a sustained run and was strong to the line in winning. I say no, he can’t win, but maps to do no work and is a must for exotics.

3. Johnny Rocker (3)
J: Mark Zahra
 
T: Nick Ryan
 
W: 58.5kg
Best Odds: $17
Rating: 
COMMENT: Fascinating runner. I don’t think he is sharp enough for 1000m but I think from the gate, he does no work and will be strong late. Not sure he has the quality to win but he can run top four without surprising.
 
CABALLUS.png
4. Caballus (9)
J: Joshua Parr
 
T: Bjorn Baker
 
W: 58.5kg
Best Odds: $15
Rating: 
COMMENT: Potentially, a kind map for him getting outside Estriella, but I just don’t think he’s good enough. He has real flaws in his form IMO and this is different gravy. But, I have said this about a Bjorn Baker sprinter previously and I’ve been burned. But, I don’t think he can threaten. Should be the rank outsider.
 
CHAIN-OF-LIGHTNING.jpeg
5. Chain Of Lightning (4)
J: Damian Lane
 
T: Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman
 
W: 56.5kg
Best Odds: $13
Rating: 
COMMENT: Quality mare when right but is she sharp enough for 1000m? Moved well to win a recent jumpout at Pakenham and does race very well on the fresh side. There is forecast for rain Thursday and Friday, so whether that impacts the track, not sure, but she maps ideally. Slight overs IMO.
 
ESTRIELLA.png
6. Estriella (8)
J: Blake Shinn
 
T: Ciaron Maher
 
W: TBC
Best Odds: $3.00
Rating: 
COMMENT: Estriella looks to be absolutely humming for Ciaron Maher. Most of these runners are here to make a statement for The Everest and she is probably leading the line for that given what she did in the Autumn where she looked like a jet before an end of prep run in the Sangster. Her trial/jumpout work has been electric, has been set for the race…very hard to beat.
 
COLEMAN.png
7. Coleman (6)
J: Kerrin McEvoy
 
T: Matt Laurie
 
W: 56.5kg
Best Odds: $8.00
Rating: 
COMMENT: Better run in transit and he is probably a Golden Slipper winner. But I have thought his jumpout/trial work this time in has been really poor and hasn’t screamed out of a horse who can win a 1000m Group l fresh. If he wins, too good, but for mine, he’s got none. Not sure he has come up.
 
LADY-OF-CAMELOT.png
8. Lady Of Camelot (2)
J: Zac Lloyd (a)
 
T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott
 
W: 50kg
Best Odds: $5.00
Rating: 
COMMENT: Can’t deny her winning claims with the weight, the map and the intent from the trials. Slipper winner that looks prepped right up to run a beauty and the set up just looks perfect for her. Maps to stalk Estriella, Caballus drops off and she gets her chance. Hard to beat…but for mine, is too short.
 
HAYASUGI.png
9. Hayasugi (7)
J: Ms Jamie Kah
 
T: Clinton McDonald
 
W: 50kg
Best Odds: $11
Rating: 
COMMENT: I can see her being very dangerous. Blue Diamond winner that does need to step up to the plate but gee her trial/jumpout work has been sizzling. Loved her jumpout and then her trial behind Pharari last week was very good. The only knock is can she give them a start and a beating? You’ve got 50kg on her back and a decent price to find out.

J-Mac has only 2 rides tomorrow

R4 #3 Pisces

R7 #2 Aeliana 

The Double is paying 12-1

  • 4 months later...

Schwarz is a good chance (and good odds) in the G1 William Reid Stakes tomorrow (1200m)

Should lead from a nice gate and it might be a leaders track at the Valley

Moonee Valley (Saturday)

R9 #4  9.50/2.60  Schwarz

 

 


Not happy with the jock on Savoir Faire in the Yarra Valley Cup. Was paying $23 too.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
