Welcome Sunshine with Wednesday Winners

Best Bet Bunbury race 4 Big Caroline.  When a mare hit's form they generally stay there and Caroline is flying.  Three wide without cover last start lumping a big weight was still too good.  Drawn for a much softer run in slightly stronger grade the $6 eway on offer looks great value.

Mr8 Euro Angel Caufield has a strong pre cup meeting today with wide open fields.  Euro Angel looks the best bet in the last.  Has a big booming finish on her, jockey of the moment Dwayne Dunn to steer home another winner.

Bunbury Quaddie (r5-8)

Caufield Cup Saturday where early fav Jameeka looks toughest to beat.  Come and join the team for a punters club and drink at the Opening Ascot Meeting.  Details on our social events page or facebook page.

 

Sunday Prayers

Best Bet: Mr9 Ruettiger in the Apache Cat Classic.  $4 for a horse that has beaten Voodoo Lad and run 4th to Sooboog at Flemington at it's last two starts will do me nicely.  Voodoo Lad would thrash this field.  The one Query is the 1000m as it's better over 1200m but from the ideal barrier should park close enough.  Omen punters be wary of Bullpit withRoss Higgins, who played awesome character Ted Bullpit in 80's classic Kingswood Country passing away on Friday.

Other Bet: Ar6 Time Walker is from Adelaide's leading yard with top hoop Dom Tourneur to ride.  Dropping from a 2nd in Saturday grade to a Gawler c2 and you can still get $2.50.  Suggest you take it early and even boost it at Ladbrokes, Sportsbet or Tabtouch as doubt that price will last.

Good Luck Ducks and remember to keep next Saturday free for the Perth Meet n Greet at Racecourse where you can help rob the bookies blind.

Super Confident Saturday

Best Bet: Mr9 He's Our Rokkii, $3 fav in the group one Toorak Handicap.  Being a handicap and carrying 55kgs makes me even more confident. Ladbrokes has best tote +20%, Palmerbet and The Betting Club bonus bet for 2nd, 3rd.

THANKS FOR THE TIP THURSDAY

BEST BET: MR4 RUN CHARLIE RUN ; When a horse looks after you it pays to keep the relationship going. Charlie has won for LDR before and think it will again. Very speedy mare that runs and keeps running over the 1000m.  Oliver rides the short price fav Scuzi who ran out of ground over 1100m so with the claim for in form apprentice Jack Martin I believe Charlie will be too quick.  Tab Touch customers the Super Pick cash back for 2nd looks ideal.

Have a Quack Ducks

HUMP DAY HELP

BEST BET: Northam race 6 Seattle Stryker, from the powerful Simon Miller yard, this galloper won it's 2nd career start beating a $1.30 fav in Show Honey.  Show Honey has been heavily supported into odds on again in race 4 so with natural improvement Seattle Stryker must be hard to beat.

That's all for today folks, Caulfield Guineas day Saturday, Bunbury hosts WA metro meeting.  Come and say hello at the South West Meet & Greet or Perth Meet & Greet the following Saturday at Ascot.  Check the Social Events Page for details.

Quack Ya Later.

Sunday Hangover Cure

Well AFL is over and the Dogs left us all feeling happy with the world again.  Tipping winners also helps and now it's really time to get our teeth into the spring carnival.

Best Bet: Mr4 The Quarterback ; going for value today and $6.50 for a Newmarket Handicap winner (also ran down the Flemington straight) beating the likes of Black Heart Bart and Chautaqua certainly fits the bill.

Mr2 Zunbaqa ; Likes to lead and has won at track before.  Has the form on the board while the dangers are coming from weaker form lines. WA boy Damian Lane to look after us.

Mr6 Exocet; The Freedmans are slowly but surely re-establishing themselves amongst the big boys and this fellow is helping.  Still greener than the grass on the MCG he was ultra impressive last start and can go on with it.

Mr7 Hartnell; Today's group one over the 2000m see's Hartnell arrive from NSW in blistering form and an odds on qoute.  There is a jackpot first four to get some coin out of him.

1st 4, 2nd 1 2 8 9 13, 3rd 1 2 6 7 8 9 13, 4th s3 (flexi suggested)

Mr8 Manageress; Scratchings have left me with this very consistent mare.  Loves Flemington and never runs a bad race.

Quaddie (r6-9) **** rather than go wide and expensive in a tough looking quaddie we are going to have a cheap crack at a good dividend by standing out our tips and seeing how far we can get.

Good Luck Ducks , remember West Aussies daylight saving kicks off today in the East so we are betting with our cereal.

 

Saturday Game Day

Sydney's turn for group one racing and while two of the three group one's are wide open the rest of the card is destroyed by scratchings and left with favs dripping in red odds on sauce.  Locally at Belmont wild weather overnight and gale force winds have me reluctant to tip on the meeting but we do like a couple.

Best Bet is pr3 Royal Missile.  Beating odds on fav and today's rival Bonny Be Good on it's merits last start, see no reason why it can't do it again and due to Pike riding Bonny it is fav again.  Nashville Cat for LDR trainer Jason Miller looks a danger.

Pr6 Fathom's Of GoldClose up 3rd to Falcon Crest and Material Man is good enough for this race.  Before that won two in a row easily over similar distance.

Sr2 Condor Heroes Usually wary of betting on the early 2yo's but this one couldn't have been more impressive at the trials smashing the clock and putting daylight on the others. Both Sportsbet and Luxbet have run 2nd 3rd bonus bet up to $50 promo

Ar3 Honey Steels Gold Stayer in form that has been mixing jumps with flat racing and winning both.  Confident it can win again.

Crown Bet Multi Insurance ( 2 out of 3 bonus points) *fixed odds only

Pr3 Royal Missile, Pr6 Fathoms of Gold, Sr2 Condor Heroes

Enjoy the AFL Ducks, Make some money on the side and get ready for a big Turnball Stakes day at Flemington tomorrow.

Friday Night Wallet Fillers

3 Days of group one racing with AFL Grandfinal thrown in DUCK YEAH WERE PUMPED.  We better get this right to pay for the rest of the weekend!

Best Bet Mr7 Chautauqua : Racing enthusiasts have been drooling over this clash with buffering for weeks.  I think at 2.25 the worlds best sprinter is great value.  There is so much pressure on speed in this race and the big grey flash slingshots off the bend at Mooney Valley like no other, can't see them holding him out .  Boost the price with Ladbrokes or Sportsbet and get in the que!

MR3 Real Love : Perth's Classy middle distance mare looks cherry ripe for this race.  Gives a little weight to the boys but big danger Tom Melbourne is very inconsistent where as Real Love tries her heart out every run.  Love cheering the WA Nags home in bid spring races.

Mr6 Don't Doubt Mama : Big fan of this mare and jockey Dwayne Dunn.  Was very impressed with her last start win getting up on the fence which actually wasn't the best ground.  Has a lethal sprint at the end of her races and when a mare hits form they usually stay there.  Favourite Rising Romance is the obvious class and weight horse but hasn't won for so long I'm happy to take her on.

Early Quaddie (r1-4)     7, field, 1 7, 4 7 8@$66 for 100%

Main Quaddie (r5-8)  1 6 8, 1 2 10, 2 , 3 4 6 7 8 9@$54 for 100%

Gloucester ParkBest R8 The Black Lord is a different horse when leading so if it can ping the tapes from the stand should run a race at good each way prices.

Wednesday Winners

Best Bet is Pr3 Cash on Call  From the powerful Williams Pike combo this horse showed good ability first prep.  Trialling like a winner and the fav Big Caroline has to lump the 59.5kgs

Mr3 Nina Peak.  First up finished under 3 lengths behind Saturdays thousand guineas prelude winner Legless Veuve and placed in stakes grade 2nd up last prep surprised even money is available boost it with Sportsbet or Ladbrokes and get on.
