'Exhilarates' wins the MM 2YO Classic ... came from the rear of the field and swamped them.  Looks a real horse for the future - very impressive.  Only a little horse but the closing speed is there to see.  The James Cummings stamp obviously.

Terrific victory, I was hoping she didn’t have that good a closing speed, I was on Dubious.

An almost day for me today Macca, unlucky with your picks the last two weeks, you’ve been nabbed late.

Another winner @Dee Zephyr  ... you're on fire!

I got on to Turnberry with the help of some bonus bets and Robbie Dolan did well to get the horse out.  Winner/Winner.

I was with Exhilarates ... I had to be after talking the horse up all week!

Dubious just found one better DZ.   Gallant in defeat and another one to watch.  Unite and Conquer shouldn't be forgotten either - was 4 wide without cover and never really had a chance.

$11.80 the Quinella. I might go walk the dog now to avoid the PL. 

Couple of Listed races at Gosford coming up on Thursday ... both good betting races too if you can sort out the form.  There are numerous chances in either race. 

As for the weekend,  there's a dearth of quality races although the Listed Kensington Stakes at Flemington sees 'Champagne Cuddles' making a return to racing in the 1000m dash.

No videos from the Magic Millions available but here's the Group 1 3YO Levin Classic from Saturday (NZ) ... the winner is worth following up on as it will be racing in Oz soon enough.

 

It looks like El will be on the quick backup at Flemington this coming weekend. Up to 1400m and at this stage starting on the banks of the Maribyrnong (13).

Brad Davidson tipped me into Nahuel in the closing credits on Sky's 'Form Line' show last night ... got on at $11 and it won whilst starting at 5-2.  My rather small wager was part of a much bigger plunge!

Davo is a more than decent tipster of NSW racing too - always looking for the value runner.  

Paddy Payne is taking Strategic Command to Morphetville R6, his only horse hes taking there. He often does this and wins. He is getting better and better and might be the next big trainer.

Is that 4 winners in a row or 5 DZ? 

Racing.com just called and you're needed as a replacement for Gator!

Tell them I accept Macca as long as I can bring a couple of sidekicks from DL on the show.?

Not sure how many that is in a row, the formula seems to be working at the moment. 

It was a very strong win in the end, I thought it was done 100m or so from home.

Your pick ran on well, it just seemed the leaders had a decent break on the rest. Creedence is usually a pace horse i thought. 

El ran ok too for a first time attempt at 1400m in town. There wasn’t much separating 2nd-6th.

He did some work early, mate thinks they should have gone back from the wide barrier early. 

 

Couple of very good Group 1 races at Sha Tin tomorrow. 

'Beauty Generation' should win the mile race but 'Conti' is a real up and coming lightly raced 5yo and it could run BG close.  Moreira on board Conti (11-2) but Zac Purton is on Beauty Generation (1-8) 

In the Sprint race Mr Stunning will take a power of beating but DB Pin,  Beat the Clock,  Fifty Fifty & Little Giant are all racing well and Mr Stunning might have to go around all of them to win (if it settles back)

Next weekend we get to see the 2yo's in the Blue Diamond Preview's as well as a few Listed Stakes races from Caulfield & Randwick - a precursor to the Autumn per se.   And in less than a month we'll see the great mare Winx running around in the Apollo Stakes.

Jamie is just a terrific horsewoman as well as an excellent jockey Wadda ... she doesn't have an overly aggressive style which is what some punters are looking for but just rides her mounts the way they're meant to be ridden.

Jamie has made the right move coming to the big smoke and out of her comfort zone in Adelaide.   Belwazi came in from 40-1 to 15's to win the Kensington Stakes so a number of punters were on to it.  Kudos. 

 

 

Been looking for a tipster out of NSW racing to go with Gator in Victoria & JJ out of SA and after a fair bit of research I reckon Tony Brassel is the one.  His tips can be found here(Sky Racing) (on the morning of the race meetings) 

What I normally do is pick the eyes out of the tips from Gator,  JJ & now Tony Brassel looking for the best odds ... not really interested in anything too short for a straight-out bet.  More so exacta's/trifecta's with the help of their tips. 

Gator's tips & JJ's tips can be found on Racing.com on Saturday mornings as well.  Wednesday evening's for Gator's tips for the advanced knowledge.  Nathan Exelby has a bit of a reputation (QLD racing) so I might start looking at his tips to see if he is any good.

And then of course there is the Flemington Forecaster himself - @Dee Zephyr ... DZ is trumping all of them at the moment with 5 from 5 from his last 5!  I'm just wondering when the Caulfield Correspondent ( @Wadda We Sing ) is going to grace us with his presence again (?)  Our strike is improving but we need all the help that we can get!

Here are a few interesting articles re the Autumn features in Melbourne including an article about the nominees for the Australia Stakes which is to be run this upcoming Friday night ...

Five Group I winners in 2019 Australia Stakes

Perth filly missing from 2019 Australian Guineas nominations

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
