6 races down at Sha Tin and Purton & Moreira share the spoils ... 3 winners each!

122 winners each for the season.  Zac reckons 145 will get it done.  Maybe.

Caulfield 2 week carnival moved to late November (probable)

So what lead up do we have for the Cox Plate & Flemington Carnival?

Sydney might cash in ... for instance the Metro Hcp (2400m) might be moved with a few other races to mid October.  Maybe that whole race day which is formerly held 2 weeks before the Caul Cup (?)

Maybe theyre listening to us Macca and the Cox Plate will actually be run on Xmas Day, but theyre just waiting for the right time to announce it possibly..

Nice win at Sale this morning by another Night of Thunder 1st starter Cherry Tortoni for Patrick Payne and Billy Egan who incidentally have a winning strike rate of 25% at the moment. Thats 2 in a row Night of Thunder 1st starters, taking into consideration the strong win by Winning Weather at Morphettville on Sat. These horses are starting to hit our shores, watch out for them.

Thanks for the heads up Wadda!

We might end up like Europe where it's just 1 long season (early May to late October over there ... Sept through to late June over here - including Morphettville,  Doomben & Eagle Farm)

The jumps season in Europe is effectively the forerunner (March/April soft tracks) so it's 8 months all up.  Our jumps season could fill July & August when the tracks are soft.  Just a thought.

Listening to Peter Le Grand (Chairman MRC) this arvo on SEN I got the impression that late November for the Caulfield Guineas/Cup carnival over 2 weeks might become a permanent fixture.  The Wednesday Caulfield meeting inbetween as well (?)

Add in the 3 or 4 G1 races in Perth over December along with the QLD summer carnival (which would include the Magic Millions) and then it's only a month off until the Autumn.

Trainers would adjust ... maybe the best horses would run every 4 weeks instead of the 2 week back-up. 

As a punter the mooted changes to the Caulfield fixture's has high appeal.  Group racing rivals the Demons & Test cricket these days.

As for Xmas day,  put some sport on I say!  Especially now where we've been starved of sport for 3 or 4 months. 

The MVRC might be looking at running the Manikato Stakes day the week before Cox Plate day.  And NSW racing will be eyeing off a few dates ... late Nov to match Caulfield?  Chasing the good weather makes sense for both States. 

Lets face it,  it's a fairly crammed schedule anyway when factoring in that the Turnbull Stakes Day & the Epsom Hcp/Metro Hcp are held just a week or 2 before the traditional Caulfield dates.

9 weeks of wall-to-wall Group 1 racing spread over the 2 main States instead of 6 weeks might make more appeal for the horse racing enthusiasts (with a few G1 & G2 races in September as a precurser)

Sandown having it's own date before Caulfield might lift the profile of that race day too ... of course, Sandown does come under the auspices of the MRC so there's perhaps an ulterior motive as well ?

The time honoured Stradbroke Hcp is on this Saturday ... along with the G1 JJ Atkins Plate for the 2yo's.  Apparently they might have to lift the weights in the Stradbroke as there aren't enough lightweight jockeys about up there.

Dawn Passage is now the $5 favourite and is carrying 50kgs. Looks a half-decent field though with Trekking and a few others in the betting. 

And the racing returns to the UK this weekend with 3 G1's ... Coronation Cup (Fri) 2000 Guineas (Sat) & 1000 Guineas (Sun)

Stradivarius with Frankie on board is currently $5 to win the Coronation Cup.

Yeah I've had a bit of a flutter tonight Wadda

Just a couple of one-off doubles & win bets.  As you said,  some handy types running around and the favoured runners usually find their way into the finish.  Great racing to be had.

Should we resurrect the Monkey Business thread for our best bets?  AFL & NRL back in full swing as is the EPL from Thursday onwards. Maybe get our picks in before Saturday? 

We may need a break during the winter racing as has been the tradition (apart from having an interest in UK & Irish racing festivals)

Weirdest Race coverage ive ever seen. So much silence between races....Jockeys with masks.....surely harder to breathe....anyways.

Yeah i dont mind really. You can use Ascot for a BB this week if the mood takes you. Think we could do a good multi actually. Maybe make it the last week.

Monkey Business i dont mind. Its pretty hard to figure out any form atm with results like the Meter Maids beating West Coast. See what DZ wants to do.

Frankly Darling/Mogal & Battaash my multi tonight

Good thinking Wadda

The racing on Friday night & Saturday night from Ascot is first class

A lot of familiar names with 10 Group races to choose from.   We should be able to find 3 winners amongst those events.

I was on Frankly Darling as well ... Mogal should win too.  Mogul is a full brother to 'Japan' (who races in the Prince of Wales Stakes tomorrow)

Addeybb is in the same race ... won 2 G1's in Oz in our Autumn.

Mogul presented and then didn't run on.  The winner (Pyledriver) wins at 20-1.  Carrying a bit of condition was Mogul but no excuses.

Form is tricky,  all the same.  Nearly all the horses are first up after a long break.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
