Have you blokes had a look at Winterbottom at Ascot today? (Race 9)

I don't mind 'Elite Street' (#13) at the value (20-1)

Trekking the obvious standout but a bit short for my liking

I’ve not looked at any races today tbh, will check it out now.

Ha ha!

I live for Saturday racing ... can't get enough of it.  Used to be the footy but we don't play all that much on a Saturday arvo these days

And I no longer play cricket so it's all about the horses on a Saturday now

I’m working 6 days a week at the min, so I’ve spent all morning and up until now doing chores etc just haven’t had the time. And tbh I lessen off once main spring carnival is done unless I go to the races. But I’m on NFL games this time of year.

I’m on your horse @Macca

Had a look early and got a fourth and a third so bonus bet then just got Bandersnatch and Two big Fari so I’m up nicely

Good work Gorg

Money back today but I'm playing with some bonus bets overnight (Del Mar) & tomorrow (Sha Tin)

Go 'Elite Street'!

Great get @Macca!!!

Had it in a small multi that got up too, so another 124. Good days for a day I wasn’t even going to punt on ???

Fantastic!

Bonus bucks in the off season!

Hope you got a nice collect (as I did)

It drifted right out in the betting but I'm not complaining.  Thought 20-1 was overs

I boosted it to $26 so had some on the nose then another with some as a place

Did the same and 'Elite Street' has definitely got a future too.  Scooted around them with a real turn of foot

Another W.A. horse that could end up over in the Eastern States.  Lightly raced but has real speed against the clock.  It wasn't a great field but it still beat a very good horse in Trekking home

Dare I say it ... an ADATR Blackbooker

Winners are grinners!! haha

 

Def black booker but wondering how low the odds will be going forward.

Got told #10 Da Deputy in the Jerhico at Warrnambool is a good chance. 
paying $16

I'll go with that Gorg ... excellent each-way value.  A little disappointed with the support card for such a terrific event (The Jericho) but hopefully over time that will be addressed

Anyway,  a full field of 14 (with the 4 emergencies scratched) augers well for the concept

And here's the replay of the Winterbottom Stakes followed by last weekend's Railway Stakes

 

 

 

 

Well a roughy won it, just not the right roughy ?

Yeah,  Count Zero won at big odds ... its form back in the Autumn was very sound but it has been running over 2000m (or shorter) in the lead up to this race

They obviously knew what they were doing and on a 7 day back-up as well

Da Deputy was beaten a long way from home but that's racing

Japan Cup on in 30 minutes and it looks a race between Almond Eye & Contrail but I'm on Glory Vase (each-way)

Glory Vase loomed large with a furlong to go but got run over (after kicking again)

Well deserved win to Almond Eye though (what a mighty mare)  Will be retired now after a stellar career

Contrail ran on well to help secure the 'obvious' quinella for punters (which I didn't have of course!)

Jericho Cup & Japan Cup both run today

 

 

 

 

Some good racing coming up on the weekend with the Kingston Town Classic being the standout race.  Small field in the Pakenham Cup but it's a very good betting race.  Click on any of the listed races below for the fields, form & odds

• Ascot - Kingston Town Classic
• Ascot - A.J. Scahill Stakes
• Pakenham - Cup
• Pakenham - VOBIS Gold Bullion
• Doomben - George Moore Stakes

 

If you are looking for a horse to flesh out a multi

Doomben, Race 9, #7 Isotope $2.05

Thanks for that Gorg

 I quite like 'Watch Me Dance' (No.16) in the Kingston Town Classic (Ascot Race 8)

3 of the big bookies have picked it outright noting that it's carrying only 50kgs and has drawn well

At 11-1 it represents good value

Inspirational Girl is the one to beat but it has drawn gate 18 ... I've got it going in a couple of multi's as the saver bet (including your pick 'Isotope')

When in doubt defer to the experts (so they say)

James Jordan (JJ) has snagged 6 winners from 8 races at Morphettville today

 

Edit:  Make that 7 from 9

Edited December 5, 20204 yr by Macca

Didn’t see any at Morphettville today but that’s impressive.

Ended the day $10 down as Beat the Bro got pipped in a photo in the last at Ascot.   So I was either going to end $10 down or $100 up. 
considering I was across races from Packo, Rosehill and Ascot I can’t complain. Will roll my bonus bets into the NFL and hope for a winner.

My betting strategy nearly always includes the races from S.A and in particular, James Jordan's tips.  And when he and Gator both tip well I do well

The challenge is matching up 2 of the tips in a small multi as the tips can often be the short priced favourites.  Worked out well today as Gator had a reasonable day as well (although I went looking for value (against a few) to my detriment!)

Would have cleaned right up if Inspirational Girl had have got up.  Truly Great a deserved winner though.  Too good

Good luck with the NFL ... I'll be doing a 4 or 5 pick H/F multi.  All home teams as I don't trust my judgement on road teams! ?

Sha Tin tomorrow though playing with house money

Yeah I got up early with Written Miss, been on her both races. She is class and will move up to better races soon enough. So I went after some longer shots, missed also on a multi with Inspirational girl. 

Geelong race 6 #8 whowoodathort $21

Work with one of the owners, they and the trainer think it’s a chance. 
throught I’d pass it on.
