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

Is Pinstriped off to the paddock  ?

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

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

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

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 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.
 
JOHNNY-ROCKER.png
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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
