What a horse this 'Sunlight' is ... a special horse.

Helped me get the exacta but we've got a real WFA sprinter on our hands here.  Her fighting qualities and turn of foot are exceptional.  A champion already.

It's nice to follow a horse from the beginning ... go Sunlight!  ?

Take her to Royal Ascot Tony McEvoy!

 

And now Trapeze Artist breaks the track record up at Randwick.  So many top rate sprinter/milers here in Oz - we really are blessed with talent.

Footy starts soon so I'm switching to the trusty wireless for the rest of the program - go Demons!

Was on Fundamentalist.....now for Ace High!

 

Every chance Ace, got chopped out at the 50m, but wouldnt have won.

Great pick Macca. Won very well. Love the trainer Kenny Keys. Does it hard.

I had it straight out and also got the exacta Wadda. 

Got a mate who told me yesterday that he was going to take the Field,  Spanish Whisper,  Field,  Spanish Reef - paid $62k.  Hope he didn't change his mind ?

Ive won some massive quaddies doing that. F1F1 or 11FF etc etc......ive done it on more than 1 occasion.

Please post any hunches like that in the future. Good luck to your mate. Hope he got it.

I'd have to post up about 10-15 hunches then Wadda! ha ha

There are a lot of hunches & tips thrown my way towards the end of most weeks.  Another mate text me with his 3 tips to multi up for the win ... Eduardo,  Avilius & Peirata - none of them even ran a place!

I haven't heard back from the quaddie mate either so he's possibly celebrating hard on the turps or kicking himself for maybe changing his mind (and therefore on the turps drowning his sorrows)  I'm thinking the latter! 

I had a decent day today but it would have been a bumper day if some of JJ's tips had have won ... he had a very lean day although I did get a few ok exactas with his tips.

And Harlem wins the Australian Cup?  Now that's a turn up for the books!  Hayes again ... they know when to load up,  that clan.  It's a pity we're mostly in the dark hey?

Yeah Macca, we make out like mushrooms....put into the dark and fed sh.......

Well yes maybe there are 15 different tips i definitely hear you, tho doesnt hurt to post a few. Im always looking for 1 out legs. I really liked Spanish Reef and have won on it before. I thought the 2nd runner may beat it, but i had heard nothing of Spanish Whisper.

Dr Turf quite liked Hangman and said to forgive its last run. Should i have posted that? Easy in hindsight huh.

I will also say that Fundamentalist 3/1 the place 2 weeks in a row and practically won both races. Surely a few more runs for him.

Didnt see Harlem either, despite visiting there in the Netherlands a few months back. No idea it won last year at even longer odds i believe. Trifecta paid 1.5k in Vic Osborne Bulls was pegasus at the end of that race. Flying.

Yeah I had my PL moment in the Newmarket ... my top 6 finished 1st,  2nd,  3rd,  4th,  5th & 6th.  But going into the race I had another 7 or 8 marked as dangers to my picks.  Just goes to show hey - class prevails.

Got a good collect on the exacta but the trifecta & F4 were all mine for the taking.  And I really fancied Sunlight but again,  I settled on the exacta so it was my choice.  The F4 paid $8.9k and as you said,  the trifecta $1500.  All quality horses at the top too ?

Mind you,  since switching to exactas I consistently do ok and nearly always break even at worst.  To get large collects I need to take out a few trifectas or F4's.  Lesson learnt though mate.

As for Osborne Bulls,  the horse is monstrously fast at the finish.  Still only a 5yo so we'll get our collects on the horse going forward.  Sunlight & Osborne Bulls - ADATR specials. 

Fundamentalist really unlucky not to win but The Autumn Sun is an awesome horse.  Hope they race it on for another season as it's a moral for the Cox Plate.  Screaming out for 2000m.

 

Footnote:  Spanish Whisper & Spanish Reef were both tipped by Gator.  I might post up a link to his tips (Wed evening) if I remember to do so.  JJ's tips the same (Sat morning) 

Edited by Macca


Anyway,  tomorrow sees the big race meeting at Canberra (Black Opal Stakes day) whilst the Echuca Cup & Stony Creek Cups are being run as well - decent fields too.  Racenet Form Guide

The Autumn Sun has to take on Winx. Cox plate might be the only chance if they keep going with Winx this year, which i doubt somehow. Kinda got everything to lose now and nothing to gain.

An early sensation with 'Eastender' taken out of the cup by the stewards for being administered a race-day treatment.  Stewards working in plain clothes apparently.

I'm on Lamborghini as well Wadda - small wager though and an exacta in the race as well (of course!)

Did the form on the meeting last night and my top 3 or 4 mostly matched JJ's .... however,  the horses that I marked as the standouts differed every time to JJ. 

So I've gone with James Jordan's tips on the win bets!  He knows a hell of a lot more than I do.  Value around today so even if he only gets 2 winners I'll be in front.

n.b. None of the horses in the cup have any decent 3200m form but a few of the tipsters reckon that Lamborghini will get the trip.

I was just thinking about Australia Cup and the short priced Fav Avilius going down. I dont know how you can bet on a 1.80 Fav in a cups race. Anything can happen and often does. I know it was shorter than a normal cups race, but its still the same thing i reckon. I guess we will never know why Bowman couldnt ride at the last minute. Most likely a family issue, so thats fine.

Notice Jamie Kah is ridding in the Adelaide Cup. She is a seriously good jockey and is now freelance instead of ridding for McAvoy. Wont be overlooking her in any cup races

But hey at least were going ok in the cricket!

I have close to no interest in ODI's ... Tests - 90% interest and ODI World Cups 10%.

One day cricket bores me senseless ... I like to see a real battle between bat and ball so even Test cricket can sometimes come up short.  More so in Australia where we produce 'roads'

And Avilius had an ulcerated off-side eye so it probably shouldn't have run at all ... we wouldn't ask a human athlete to perform with an ulcerated eye.  I'm big on horse racing but I'm even bigger on horse welfare. 

And that bears no relationship to the gambling aspect ... I never offer excuses,  never blame jockeys,  never complain.  It's my risk,  pure and simple.

Edited by Macca

Well there's 1 of JJ's tips saluting - Messershmitt wins at good odds.  He can pick 'em out ... had only performed at BM58 level prior to today. 

 

 

James Jordan gets his 2nd winner at good odds in race 4 with 'Done By Me'

Playing with house money now,  thanks JJ!


'Surprise Baby' wins the Adelaide Cup ... a real horse for the future.  Has never raced beyond 2000m and was having only its 2nd start beyond the mile. 

And it was having just it's 6th start and cost only $5,500 as a yearling.  Sold 'Online' apparently - amazing.  What a story!

The 3200m Andrew Ramsden Stakes raced for $400k in mid May may be the target for Surprise Baby now ... the winner gains automatic entry into the Melbourne Cup. 

A day of high drama with the scratching of Eastender and the awful fall in the 8th race ... all jockeys ok apparently.  Still waiting on news of Stellar Collision though.  Hope it recovers alright.

Big breaking news re the All Star Mile

Three All-Star Mile contenders in doubt, 'Le Romain' and possibly 'Trap for Fools' poised to get a start

Quote

He's probably been the most talked about horse in the All-Star Mile but roughie Urban Ruler may not line up.  The Chris Munce-trained galloper was displaying signs of lameness on Thursday and will face further vet checks on Friday.

There are also some concerns over another roughie, Foundry, with vets not satisfied with his action.

Racing Victoria stewards have also advised the Perth galloper Material Man also "presented with lameness in its left front foot" when inspected on Thursday.

 

Meanwhile,  here's JJ's best bet at Morphettville

Race 8 No.2 Master Chum $5.50

I'll try and post up his tips late Saturday morning but failing that, go to Racing.com after 10.00am Saturday for his tips.

 

And here are Gator's tips for Flemington this coming Saturday

  • 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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
