The Zephyr at 7.50 for the place ... 'Handsome Thief' & 'El Sicario' scratched which means Milwaukee is now favourite.  The race has got a First4 feel about it with a few of the lightweights now in the betting. 

Can Dan deliver a payday for us? ... here is the field again

The scratchings will aid his quest somewhat to break the streak Macca. A lot will need to go right for Dan to salute IMO. 

It’s interesting they kept the horse at 1200m, with the way he hit the line I thought a step-up to 1400m would be ideal. 

Looking forward to an enjoyable day in front of the box.

Morning punters. Apologies for not putting up my best etc last couple of weeks. Have been flat out Sat mornings. Coincided with a scratchy couple of weeks for me on the punt so i can assure you did not miss much, though my value runner last week was Houtzen (which was just about my only winner).

Another tough day in sydney. But big fields mean good vale so fingers crossed. So here are my tips, all at Randwick

 

Best bet: Race 2  no 2 Isaurian 

Best value:  Race 8  no 10 Aloft

Best longshot: Race 6  n no 10 She’s a Treasure

Good luck on what is really the last day of Autumn for me save a couple of races i like in Morphetville in the next couple of weeks.

Here are the current 'Longines' World's Best Racehorse Rankings (up to April 8th)

Plenty of Australian bred horses on the list and a number of familiar names from Hong Kong ... those who are interested may need to enlarge the page to read with more clarity.  Levendi is the latest Australian horse to make the elite list. 

One would think that Winx will be the outright No.1 horse if she wins tomorrow.

Viridine's a very good choice Wadda ... I'm as confident as ever with the 3 picks.  So much so that I just got on a 75-1!  That seems overs for 3 quality thoroughbreds all with excellent current form. 

Here are the 3 Best Bets ...

  • Randwick  Race 5  No.1  Viridine  $3.50
  • Randwick  Race 6  No.2  Hiyaam  $5.50
  • Randwick  Race 8  No.1  Almandin $4.20

Now we have Binmans Race 2 Lsaurian  $2.45. That gives us a total of approx 198/1.

Lsaurian Plc $1.20

Viridine  Plc $1.45

Hiyaam Plc $1.85

AlmandinPlc $1.70         Place multi is approx. 5.47/1

Just noting Jason Jordans best bet at Morphetville is Race 3 No 3 Music Bay 2.80.

I hadn't seen that but have backed it. I think i may have posted this before but Sportsbet have a seemingly standing offer of the first four races money back up to $50 if your horse finished 2-4. It always syd and melb but changes for the third venue. The week it is Morphetville so really getting each way with Music bay in a small field.

I've done the form for Randwick with the thought it will suit horses on the speed and and sitting 2-3 of the fence (so favouring horses from barriers 8-13). It is one reason i also really like Hiyaam.

In terms of trying to guess the pattern of races it is obviously a bit riky if you punt as i do which is putting all bets on at the start of the day. If i get the pattern wrong i struggle. Last week i read it the same and picking Houtzen was a result of that. But it actually ended up playing ok and horses from mid field had their chances and i couldn't sang any more. That said i had remarkable number of seconds last week (across 3 states). Five or six i think from memory.

In an ideal world i would put the first couple on and get a read of the pattern and then adjust selections as required. But my model of punting with a mate doesn't allow that as neither of us can focus on the races enough during the day (other than listening to them) Determining bets between races can be very time consuming, even if you have done the form thoroughly and have narrowed selections down to a handful of chances (which is how i do form)

Caulfield looking a bit gloomy, think its snowing here almost..... Bit of a sprook for 15/Working From Home, the more rain the better apparently. Get out stakes @ Caulfield. 8.00 & 2.70.

Started off with a winner with 'Pure Elation' ... looks a real good horse too. 

Dan Zephyr has been scratched due to the state of the track at Caulfield.

What do think about Saint Valorems chances in the race Macca?

I followed the horse last preparation without too much success.

Hiyaam looked home for a moment there ... ran a race record but the winner too good.  Both horses were impressive. 

So Bowman stitches us up twice ... that was nice of him!

In the first 4 races, the winning jockeys in Adelaide have gone H Coffey/J Kah/H Coffey/ J Kah.

Both ride decent chances in the next.

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
