That amount of force could have done serious damage even to the chest. Only two weeks ago some wanted Hawkins done for pushing down on Fritta’s sternum. I don’t care where Gaff was aiming nor does Brayshaw right now.

The force was strong enough to cause a broken jaw. If he was aiming for the chest region the damage inflicted could have been just as serious.

Just had a look at their page on Big Footy. A couple of doozies in there. Wasn't any malice in it, was clearly trying to hit the pec, Brayshaw changed direction and lowered his body.

Terrific race it turned out to be. I thought Kementari was held up at a crucial stage and it enabled Pierata to gain a winning break. Kementari certainly put in some big strides the last 100-200.

Smartedge ran on very well considering the horse was well back. Not having much luck with my Bests lately. Looking forward to the Kementari race.

Nice way to bring up your second win Streets Of Avalon. Loved the fist pump by Zac Spain passing the post.

You’re right Macca in regards to Spin. I thought around the 300 it looked in a tiny bit of strife when the jock asked the horse to respond.

$1.03?? I got ripped off, I only got $1.02 on TAB.

Wow, Spin is going around at Kembla Grange in a Maiden now. $1.12 lol, ran 2nd to Santos in the Autumn. Edit: Wins comfortably.

All set fellas, $30 after a multiplier for our bests. Here is my longshot bet of the weekend and it should be more than $41. Sydney vs Collingwood - Draw. I’m on ??

Oh Boy’.... that took a while. Had some real trouble finding a standout. Best Bet: Randwick Race 6 Number 4 Smartedge $3.40 The race will run to suit. Will settle back and have one last crack at them. Winner last start, they weren’t making much ground on that particular day which makes the win even better. Form should hold up well, ran 2nd behind Star Of Monsoon two starts back and the third place getter Paret was a subsequent winner.

Nice heads up there Macca. The horse was scratched this morning. Adelaide track still a heavy 8 so I’m considering skipping past Domination in Race 7. The $1.95 is too short now for my liking. Back soon with another ‘Best’.

Thanks Macca, update greatly appreciated. Back to the form guide.....I have another picked in Adelaide but the track condition will need to improve quickly for me to make it a ‘Best’.

Best Bet: Mooney Valley Race 8 Number 3 Trap For Fools. $2.30 Former WA galloper having fourth run in and should be hitting his straps fitness wise. Has improved each run this campaign and has some excuses in those runs. By the look of it there’s not much pace here, the horse should be able to lead with Rawiller dictating the tactics and hopefully we see the famous dash away from rivals on the home turn.

Since we are talking Swans binman, I had a look at the early market for our game against them. I realise the one week at time cliche but realistically speaking most of us are looking down the track ( not necessarily punt wise). We are $1.45, Swans $2.75 If we get up this week and Swans lose our odds will reduce further in my opinion. When was the last time we were that short against the Swans?

Thanks Wadda. I was recording the game. Only kidding mate. ? They have a phenomenal knack of scoring quickly and reeling in big leads this season. Over to the Dees now.

Agree Macca. I thought Sunlight could beat him today but that was a clinic.

Haha, love the call “ What’s going to run second? I’m not sure it will be Sunlight, it will be daylight! Wow wee!!

My selection not good enough today Wadda. Had a great spot in the run and every possible chance but the one they backed late was too good.

Best Bet: Rosehill Race 6 No8. Foreign Territory $3.40 Drawn well, horse will lead and could hard to catch. Back to 1400m and a winner at this distance previously. Clark riding for the Waterhouse/Bott combo.

I’m leaning towards Sunlight Macca. 7kg less than Nature Strip and Tony McEvoy says she’s in good order after her recent trial win. Tony McEvoy on: Advantages for Sunlight - Class and the lightweight. Disadvantage - Nature Strip has been racing all winter and Sunlight is first-up. Should be a great battle and the $2.50 on offer might be worth including in a double with Mount Kilcoy.

Cheers Macca. I’ll follow Gator tomorrow. I do like Mount Kilcoy, I’ll do some more form tonight and see if I can find better value. I do have a bet going in the footy tonight. Parker to kick 2 or more goals and Sydney to win @$6. He’s on 1 currently. Thought I’d try my luck tonight and build a kitty for tomorrow, been a while since I’ve had a flutter on the footy.

Best Bet. Morphetville Race 5 No.8 MUSSOORIE MAGIC TAB Odds: $2.50 Promising 3yr old, won well last start and looks an exciting staying prospect. Is taking on some older horses but it drops somewhat in class. Wide barrier shouldn’t be a concern at this trip and looks a very good chance of winning. In other racing news, Captain Harry is going around again at $16. This time it’s back at Caulfield in R8. Much harder than Adelaide last week, the boys from work said the horse eased up when it got to the front a tad early last week and only got going again when the eventual winner went by him on the inside. I’ll also keep a keen eye out for Mount Kilcoy. Another exciting young stayer and the 2400m seems ideal again. That wraps up this morning’s news. #demonlandtracktalk?

That’s pretty much how I remember the ratings Macca although I haven’t looked into them lately. The first horse I was involved in won a Maiden in his second start and was allocated a rating of 62 post race. He went in as the top weight at Wodonga in his next race which he won and jumped to a 66. The article seems on the money. Interestingly with El, he was a 62 after his maiden win. Went up to 63 after the 5th in his first up run to Double Jeopardy, remained a 63 after the 5th to Nature Strip and went in as a 62 today after his 4th a fortnight ago at Sandown. The horse lost one rating point from that 4th placing. He is currently a 62 but unsure if the rating has been updated from today.

I missed the boat with the good place dividend Wadda. I saw $16 and $5 on TAB this morning and didn’t take it. Thought I’d wait. That was one decent plunge late.( It wasn’t me) I thought it was a very good run considering he was trapped the widest for the majority. Couldn’t get a decent spot. I’m not suggesting the horse would have won but it would have finished a lot closer. Anyways, on to Saturday fellas.
