Best Bet Ascot r7 Star Exhibit; The dual Perth Cup winning veteran won this race first up last year off a similar break. His current rating says he has a massive class advantage and his recent trial indicated he hasn’t lost his zest for racing.

Ascot r2 Watch Me Dance ; Don’t usually bet on 2yo’s much but this ones form is too hard to ignore. Won from last over 1000m on debut and showed the same turn of foot late to run 3rd in the magic millions . Back 100m but no Gemma’s Son here and will be hitting the line hard.

Best Bet Ascot r1 Pick Your Battles; Was ridden like the best horse from yet another horror gate last start and proved tactics right by winning easily. From the good draw in a small field can settle closer and run over the top again with it’s superior turn of foot.

Best Value Randwick r8 Moralist; Has won 2/3 first up , from a good stable and handles wet ground. Small play each way at $31.

Best Bet Ascot r7 Patristic; Knows one way ; find the top and run them into the ground. Took a Pike special on a very smart horse to just beat him last time. Drawn to advantage.

Ascot r5 Flower Of War; Maps perfectly to race on speed at a solid tempo with 54kgs. Fav and stablemate maps terribly drawn wide with 60kgs.

Ascot r8 Bobcat Johnnie; Never saw daylight first up. Previous campaign showed above average ability. Missed the big overs it opened but still a nice each way price. The favourite Special Choice may prove to be the best horse but $1.55 first up looks ridiculously short to me.

Ascot r9 Plays the Game; Short enough in the market ($4.80) for a horse that hasn’t won for over two years however have to give one more chance after finally drawing a barrier. Shouldn’t have to do as much work today and looks hardest to beat .

Best Bet Bunbury r3 Come Right Back ; Both it’s 2yo form and recent trial stand out here. 1400m first up from an awkward gate won’t be easy but from top yard with Pike booked to get the job done.

Bunbury r8 Midnight Banquet; Won this track and distance at $91 then just missed at Pinjarra at $31. This race looks easier to my eye and $11 / $3.10 looks great each way value.

Best Bet Ascot r8 Staaden; The fairly new Durrant/Azzopardi combination is working well , especially at the midweeks. Put the writing on the wall first up behind a smart one then blew a weak Geraldton field away. Drawn to get every chance in an even field, it looks a great each way chance to continue to go through the grades.

Ascot r2 Casino War; Has been declaring war on the leaders from wide gates . Found the front last time and was brave to hang on. This is harder but drawn much kinder and if she can find the front again will be hard to catch. 40/60 win place ratio if you like covering your stake with the place.

Best Bet Pinjarra r6 Mr Genoa; This is his stiffest test to date but that is offset by the drop in weight . Add Pike from perfect stalking barrier (3) , distance record (4/4) and first up record (3/4).

Pinjarra r10 King Blitz; Lightly raced 6yo who hasn’t raced since September 2018 so obviously has issues. His one recent trial was a 0.3 length 2nd to Cup Night. Opened $11 and now $7.50 (take in mind a couple scratchings.) Confident he is the best horse in race , might just need a race or two to blow off the cobwebs. Each Way.

Multi / Betfair * best short priced favourites

Pinjarra r2 Coming Around; Has turned it around since joining the Williams yard . Small field suits and doubt they can match his turn of foot.

Best Bet Bendigo r6 Think I’m Dreamin ; Ran on well but no match for Adelaide Ace over 1400m. I have a lot of time for the winner. Good 1600m record and ready to show best.

Betfair/Multi; Best short priced fav’s

Geraldton r2 Mordor; Trainer Tiarnna Robertson has been turning water into wine for punters lately. A close up Pinjarra 4th at just 2nd start where 3rd has since bolted in is good enough here.

Best Bet Bunbury r9 Plays The Game; Hasn’t won a race for nearly 2 years but ran a great race in the Perth Cup. Lane/Parnham combo at his home track in the weakest field he has seen for a while. If he drew a gate I would be super confident but I can’t remember the last time he drew one!

Best Bet Ascot r8 Lipstick Flickers; Although technically up in grade for this first up assignment, she has form around horses that have performed in this grade. She has always trialed like a good horse and maps to get the box seat in an even race. Each way.

Ascot r7 Inspirational Girl; Has been touted as a group performer since day 1. Not sure why the long break between her two dominant 3yo wins and last start 2nd but it was an exceptional run from back in the field. This wont be easy from the draw , especially if the track plays on speed but in Pike we trust. Watch earlier races for pattern before committing.

Ascot Quaddie (r6-9); 3, 7, 4 5 8 12 , field. $60 for 100%

Randwick r1 Away Game ; Only beaten 2 lengths by a very smart one on debut followed by two dominant victories. The latest was in the Gold Coast Magic Millions. Can only presume she is here to qualify for Golden Slipper and is ready to perform again. If she blows in the market then I would leave race alone.

Randwick r7 Alizee; Her first up stats are outstanding. The reports out of the camp are bursting with enthusiasm. I do note synthetic hoof filler in the gear changes so maybe wait to see what the market does. White Moss is trialing the house down and gets a good run on speed. Good saver.

Caulfield r3 High Bridge; Broke a frustrating run of outs last start with a pretty soft win. This field is very similar and the small field suits. Not keen at the price on anything worse than a soft 5 and there are storms predicted .

Best Bet Ascot r5 San Crispino; Only 3 wins from 41 starts but when she gets the right run on speed she generally has a good kick and is hard to run down. Drawn perfectly with jockey Azzopardi very much in form.

Best Bet Ascot r7 Serenity Bay; Has a record of 5 starts for 3 wins and 2 seconds and first up beat half of these on their merits. Add Pike from a suitable barrier and your bound to be the one to beat.

Ascot r9 Over There & Arnie’s Boy; They are both in form and drawn to get perfect runs. At current prices you can back both each way and make a decent profit if one wins or both place.

AROUND THE GROUNDS * My eastern states form is terrible at present so proceed with caution

Caulfield r5 Shush; Debuted in a group 3, was competitive and spelled. Bolted in on resumption with an electric turn of foot. If it gets a split late will be very dangerous.

Caulfield r7 Our Campana; A mare in hot form and should get every chance from draw. $3,80 looks overs to me.

Randwick r6 Helga; If it gets over from wide draw without busting a gut then should have too much firepower for these. Missybeel most likely tries to run them into ground like last time but that tactic rarely works twice in a row. Hopefully she burns early to allow Helga to slot in.

Sunshine Coast r2 Tunero; Has a racing pattern of getting back and running on late which requires tempo and luck, hence the poor strike rate . However this is a massive drop in class and it just has to go close in a Brisbane class 3 .

Friday Bank Fillers

Best Bet Moonee Valley r2 Baaqyah ; Big fan of 2yo’s with race experience over debutantes and this one has very strong form.

Moonee Valley r7 Hey Doc; Bit worried about the pressure he is likely to cop , kicking up from barrier 1. Was allowed to dictate in Winterbottom . Keep coming back to his record here at track though and at WFA is the one to beat.

Thursday Tips

Best Bet Pinjarra r3 Expressionist; Was held up for a run but flashed home late to only be beaten a length on debut. Extra 200m looks ideal.

Pinjarra r4 Western Chant; Tycoon Storm form is good enough for this. Will be up in the firing lane and has 3.5kgs off big danger Goku. Good quinella.

Best Bet Canterbury r5 Twentyfour Carat; Won in a canter last start this grade. Tricky draw and soft track are the obstacles but I’m banking on the 3kg claim offsetting these and making him the one to beat.

Betfair / Multi (short priced fav’s who should win but look for better odds.)

Ascot r6 Sweet Strawberry; It’s first two starts have indicated above average ability . The horror draw and apprentice booked make the odds on quote hard to accept.

After pouring over the form for all major state meetings we have failed to find anything today. Better to have a day off than throw some random dart !

Good luck with your own selections if having a punt. Hopefully we can find some Sunday Prayers for tomorrow!

Best Bet Bunbury r7 He’s a Gunslinger; Ready for this distance after being held up and flashing home late over 1400m last start. Main danger is San Crispino who doesn’t win often but is always thereabouts and actually finished a nose in front of Gunslinger last start after working on speed.

Bunbury r1 Brave Contender; Was only run down late first go in this distance range when going for home a long way out. Should be at peak fitness and this is a weak race.

Best Bet Randwick r3 Special Reward; Things just didn’t work out in the spring for this exciting ex-WA sprinter. Trial indicated he is back to his brilliant best and maps to dominate this race from the front.

Pinjarra r6 Maschino Miss; Has a very solid record overall , especially this track & distance. Putting faith in a young apprentice on a Saturday is tricky but if she can find a spot on pace from the good draw then will take some catching. Each way.

Best Bet Bunbury r2 War Anthem; Has had plenty of chances but the form out of his first up 3rd is too strong to not give him one last chance to breakthrough.

Sandown r7 Grand Crown ; After falling first up he has raced extremely well next two with big weights. 2kg claim means he gets in lighter in easier race. Each Way.

Best Bet Bunbury r4 Indigo Wild.; Drawn to get a soft run and his first up run indicated a win was close. Pike is on 4 odds on favs to start the program so if the first three lob our price might drift even more from the already tempting $4.40. Trutiara will be hard to beat but can’t justify the price. Carmurlea looks a massive price as she has plenty of speed and a light weight.

Boxed Quinella ; 7 11 12 .

Multi/Betfair

Bunbury r2 Sweet Strawberry ; As mentioned above Pike is expected to dominate early. This is the one that is most backable for your multi’s etc in my opinion.

Best Bet Ascot r7 Fabergino ; Is a speed freak fresh over 1000m. Lands on the bunny from good barrier and most rival jockeys will need binoculars to see her half way up the straight if she’s on song. The amount of money that has already seen her price plummet suggests she will be.

Exacta 5 / 6. Essential Spice looks the logical choice for 2nd. From barrier 1 I’m guessing they will try and hold on to the fav’s back and peel off halfway down straight to have a crack.
