I ummed an ahhed about my best. I suspect the combination of J Cummings and McEvoy (the best Australasian jockey?) might have a huge day, and Spring for that matter. I really like Cascadian and Rohryn (and Tenly with bowman on board) but i'm going to make my best:

Mosh Music Race 6 no 9 at the Valley.

I love horses who love the valley and i love picket fences.

I've got Fundamentalist included in my exacta strategy Wadda.

Godolphin rarely use Damien Oliver (who is aboard Alizee) so Oli might pull out an extra special ride.

Apparently the instructions are to ride the horse cold and then swoop home. 

It's my best and $3.60 for the win is quite reasonable too. 

As for Vega Magic - excellent choice.

Keen to see how Bivouac goes in the San Domenico tomorrow. Probably the most impressive win I’ve seen so far in the early part of the carnival. Streaked them a fortnight ago.

Not sure what happened to Vega, looked like it was shot ! Not such a good day for us.....lets hope Alizee can get the bananas

If Alizee had have got up I would have had a bumper day Wadda.  As it was I followed Gator who produced 5 winners.  So ended up reasonably well in front.  Dawn Dawn at 8.50 (boosted) was a terrific start in race 2 (another Gator value pick)

As for our picks,  no good but it was only a small multi investment so no biggie.

Didn't follow JJ (James Jordan) as his picks were on the short side but he got 5 winners as well.  The big multi was there for the taking! 

They are the best 2 tipsters in the business in my opinion.  I'll post up their tips going forward if I've got the time but Gator's Melbourne racing tips are posted on Racing.com on a Wednesday evening (under the banner of 'Best Bets') whilst James Jordan's Morphettville tips are up just after 9.00am on a Saturday (again,  on Racing.com)

Awful awful news with the 2 young jockeys losing their lives.  Such a dangerous occupation.

Deepest condolences to the family and friends of Mikaela Claridge & Melanie Tyndall.  Heart wrenching.

Thats unbelievable, its normally a once in a decade or more type thing and that normally a terrible injury. But 2 in less than a week is just shocking.

Hang on a minute Wadda

For a start Oliver gave the horse a near perfect run.  Sat just behind the leader on the fence and then got the dream run on the inside.  The horse never left the rails.

But then the horse didn't go ... it was later reported that the horse has a hot spot in it's foreleg.  If serious the horse may well be retired.

I knew there was something wrong with the horse as soon as it didn't have that kick.  I didn't need confirmation.  I did my money too so you're not alone.

Go back and have another look at the race Wadda.  I understand that you may be hearing about the possible injury to the horse for the first time so thus the cross wires.

Edited by Macca

A similar reaction came with the punters after a run by Avilius in Melbourne last Autumn (Australian Cup)

It was reported after the disappointing run (1.4 length 5th) that Avilius had contracted an ulcer/abscess in one of it's eyes.  That's got to affect a horse.

But punters are an unforging lot so the good odds were on offer in it's next run.  It duly won at 7-2 (overs) I got on and I might have even made it my best bet here.

And other times horses just don't run well because of some unidentified problem (like weariness from a solid campaign - which happens a lot)

I thought Vega Magic's odds were a bit too short anyway.  Sprint races often throw up mixed results (especially at Caulfield or the Valley)

  • 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.
