Pantenny over from the east an unknown factor. Bella Pia and Translate do look the best of the locals.

A close finish with Pantenny just beating Translate, Translate I thought was the better run..Bella Pia well beaten..must have excuses..the run too bad to be true..

The pontiff is back home and will pilot the fav Vain Crusader. Didn't have the best of luck in the Belgravia Stakes, the extra 200m Tues will suit. Rich Ken ran on nicely same race, finished just behind Vain Crusader. From a good barrier Lacerate might run a cheeky race. Was ridden off the pace last start over the 1400 and did battle on well, drops 1.5kg on that run. Oroya Gold has still to find his very good 2YO form and the Paula Wagg trained Real Cheeky not hopeless.


Vain Crusader most impressive. Best runs beaten brigade Kenviel & Guyno..

on the day I made a tiny profit but translate cost me very, very dearly, good to her that I nearly made it, as I missed the race

any thoughts on Great Nation, and Mr. Diagnosis??

Great Nation - did'nt handle the 61kg last start, drop to 57Kg big plus
Mr. Diagnosis - huge run first-up, had the 1 marble that day but a worry 2nd-up & the barrier today

looks to be more going for Wild Target today but Mr. Diagnosis is very promising & with a good run in transit should be in the finish...I'll be including both in my running doubles :)

A mate of mine is part owner of a 2YO called Shavano. Trained by Paul Jordan. According to my mate the best (potential) horse he has owned (had shares in 4 or 5 horses to-date). Interestingly won a trial on Monday beating a nag called La Coureuse!

Westi, Great Nation ..... good run...... next time maybe? Wild Target a SHOCKER!!, Dr. Diagnosis no luck........ but still a profit waiting do you agree??

PS.Idyllic Prince, I didn't consider, though a system fit of mine i.e 2 cosecutive wins, miss next run then back next two races for level stakes!! boom boom!

[diogenes]

The angst!
I have high regard for Idyllic Prince and waited for this run, but I am lacking confidence and 20 mins before start time I read this thread and saw Dr John and it was from a very successful barrier. I was very worried about the barrier I.P had. Typical of me, within a minute I had talked myself into switching....my 'big' bet of the day and I move it!
Oh, the pain listening to the last part of that race!
I am such a silly duffer, I did it all day on carnival day, had selected 6 winners and ended up with a losing day!
I used to say to myself 'You'll learn, but now I am starting to wonder!
LOL

Great Nation...not a bad run partypooper..expected him to finish a bit closer..Wild Target...they put a stack on..thought Harvey used him up a bit middle stages but still a weak effort...Mr (Dr?) Diagnosis...in retrospect McGruddy should have ridden him back in the field like the jocks did on the 1st & 2nd places...Huge run Marasco!!

[goldenember]

The press report I read re Marasco was that he could be another Northerly! Any thoughts?

[umrum]

Marrasco is very very good. Havent seen yet if he has the heart of northerly(probably impossible to be as gutsy as northerly) as no horse has really got near him of late. Won by 4 1/4 legths untouched on the weekend and there were a few more than handy gallopers in that field.

[demister jay]

The press report I read re Marasco was that he could be another Northerly! Any thoughts?

Was out at Ascot when Marasco ran 5th in the Aquanita Stakes (Feb). From barrier 16 Ikenushi settled him last. He rattled home to finish a couple of lengths behind the winner Scenic Shot. Only Scenic Shot ran a faster last 600. That was only his 3rd race start whilst Scenic Shot was having start 13. Marasco is undefeated since.

As to a comparison to Northerly, way too early, but he is obviously above average (at the very least) ;)

[puntersteve]

At Ascot Saturday, Lachino was a non-starter, Starofken saluted, Grasspatch Girl also saluted.

[westi]

Possible good news for WA racegoers.

Damien Oliver is weighing up his options in Perth before deciding if he will ride at Sandown's Eclipse Stakes race meeting later this month after having 5 meetings shaved off his 20-meeting Melbourne Cup suspension.

"He is putting out a few feelers to see if it is worth going over there or staying here," his manager has reported.

Marasco, trained by Fred Kersley, could be in Oliver's sights especially as he had a successful association with the Kersley-trained champion Northerly, winning 3 Melbourne Group I races on him 2001, including the Cox Plate.

[puntersteve]

At Pinjarra today the grey brigade consist of Akhenhome in the 1st and Western Crown in the 2nd. In the 3rd we have Blue Tribu, New Found Glory and Macelle. Tribal Lord in the 5th and Fluke in the 8th.

Melbourne get's the bum's rush, he is staying in Perth and then heading to Hong Kong. I don't know how they do it these jockeys,it's one thing resisting roasts and sangers but all that chinese tucker would drive me crazy!

Oliver already booked to ride Scenic Shot in the Railway

At Pinjarra yesterday Akhenhome, Blue Tribu and Macelle were all placed. Tribal Lord saluted and Fluke a non starter.

[partypooper]

Westi, is it Mr Diagnosis turn tomorrow? hope so BUT Re-Enforcing was sure running on well last start ey? by the way the DR. bit must have been a Frueidian slip, have had a few medical procedures lately!!

[partypooper]

PS. WHY does my eye keep going back to "Wild Target" maybe just the substancial place bet that I dropped on it last week or something else???

[puntersteve]

At Ascot today we have It Will Do and Wongkaew in the 2nd. Rich Ken in the 7th. Electic in the 8th. And Our Solid Bond in the 9th.

Mr Diagnosis certainly has a better draw but just wondering how he pulled up after last week & if he might just need another run under his belt. Both Re-Enforcing & Scenic Shot will be pelting home. Polish Reign will go around at any old odds, wouldn't be surprised if the Duck got him into a place.

[westi]

PS. WHY does my eye keep going back to "Wild Target" maybe just the substancial place bet that I dropped on it last week or something else???

Ideally suited the weight scale, nice barrier & blinkers off, w i n k e r s on. 15/2 at the mo. I backed Dr John last week & I'll stick today. Won't be taking the shorts Belle Bizarre. I'll have a few bucks Who Did It for the place as well.

[Raw Instinct]

I don't mind Lord Lonsdale in the next race looks decent odds for his form from a pretty good draw will be disappointed if it doesn't go close.

In the Guineas I liked Pantenny a little could run a race at decent odds.

In the Lee Steere I liked Hartley's Dream 1st up with the fish on board usually goes very well fresh just needs some luck to get up here.

Those who took the short odds Belle Bizarre (like me) had their heart in their mouth as Hartleys Dream look to nab her on the line :eek: PHEW!!

I actually had the last $150 in my account on Hartleys Dream on saturday jeez I though he had got there massive run especially at Ascot if that race had of been at Belmont I reckon he runs over the top of them was stupid odds really hence the size of the bet I had I couldn't believe the odds.

Today at Ascot we have Bluff Point, Shakin Stanley, Clarecastle and Carabooda Kid in the opener. Dr Bella and Sunday Dreams in the 3rd. Zorobo, Halo Song, Our Solid Bond and Top Drive in the last.

There's a few comments already this thread re Marasco, ra sun.

Don't think there were any genuine plans to take east & Fred has been playing down any comparison with Northerly.

Currently fav for the Railway & 4th in line (betting) for the Fruit N Veg. Under the odds in both on performances so far imo & likely to be even shorter if he goes ok in the R. J. Peters on Sat.

Early favs ALWAYS A DEVIL & SCENIC SHOT will probably firm even more after drawing good barriers!

[diogenes]

Early favs ALWAYS A DEVIL & SCENIC SHOT will probably firm even more after drawing good barriers!

Yes, darn it. Always A Devil hasn't really been up against this quality, last race the quality horses just went around as there was no point tiring them with big weights as this event is more important....I'm leaning toward risking Always A Devil.
It has been....what.....about two decades since a visitor has won this event?
What are thoughts on this years E.S contenders?
I like Polar Bear best, will bet $1 on Niconero just to get it out of the placings as it ALWAYS loses if I back it.
Sadly, Niconero is in a pretty big club there:****
I am curious about Harvey choosing Vain Crusader over Hartleys Dream or Idyllic Prince.
Ripped is going with the same weight he has always carried and don't think it's history indicates enough to beat these others.
Any thoughts on a pretty open affair(said the bishop to the pro)?

Given the performances of the Hayes trio in the Railway, the extra trip and WFA must put these 3 in the box seat for the Fruit 'N' Veg. Hayes will also start Purde. Wouldn't be writing off Vain Crusader, his Railway run was full of merit.

Vain Crusader's run was enormous imo. No luck at all in the straight & should have just about won the race!

perhaps? thats ten units for worse result 33 if one of your 5 win. Obviously risky not backing Marasco and leaving out electric general... Not for everyone
but if you can see the big M getting beat it's not the worst way to go about it. Personally I will probably have a couple of speculators on rescuer and tarzi and thats about it...

Desiarnez scratched, Marasco out to a $1.90

It would seem Vain Crusader is either heading to Hong Kong or heading over east.

Connections of Vain Crusader have confirmed that a substantial offer has been received from Hong Kong and Vain Crusader is currently undergoing the standard veterinary inspection as required by the HK racing authority.

Should the HK sale not proceed connections we will be looking at an eastern states campaign for Vain Crusader.

Same race Call For Freedom placed only trial. In the 6th Wyndam All over-raced last start and is in with a chance if he can settle better today. In the 7th Akhenson has no first-up form to speak of, but has some ability, so could surprise. In the 8th Quick Johnson fitter for 2 runs following long spell, capable of placing.

On the serious side its a wonder Respect is still on the racetrack. His past injuries include, an injured tendon, a cracked shoulder, damaged sesamoid bone and a fetlock joint slab fracture!

Next Ascot (R2) James The Jet near his best would give this race a real shake! Currently $7.50W $3.00P

[WildWildWest]

Hi westi. As you've just seen James The Jet is not the horse he was this prep. Normally comes to hand quickly. Now [including todays] 5 runs since a break & yet to show any glimpse of real form. Once he finds his form I'm sure he'll string together a few wins ;)

G'day WWW :) In retrospect he hasn't been racing well this campaign but I thought he'd be just about ready to put it together. But not today :( but he was getting to line ok last bit.

[WildWildWest]

Ascot race 4 onwards:

race 4 Sky Spirit extra journey today will suit
race 5 Prince Of Vasac looks well weighted
race 6 Priceless Symbol will be charging home
race 7 pin job, good luck!
race 8 a real bolter - Galaxy Reign ew

Looking at the times run at todays Belmont trials very surprised to see the fastest heat was won by a neddy called Electric Storm.

I thought this fellow had well & truly retired!

A total of 5 starts - 4 of which were run in 2004 :eek: 5th & last start back in June 2005 was injured as unplaced fav over 1000M at Belmont. If he remains sound it could be one of the comebacks of 2007!

Fingers crossed for Electric Storm's connections!

I note Canny Jack also performed well yesterday. I'm sure George Daly would have been elated with the performance!

Electric Storm, blitzed the field in good time. Phormium (same heat) a soft run and looks to be ready to win.

Canny Jack did it with ease, settled second last, came wide around the turn and was hard held over the line. Very good win.

[puntersteve]

At Ascot today the grey brigade will be represented by Neige and Roman Time in the 1st. Both have strong chances. Same race Sharev makes her race debut. The 5th Spider Strikes can go well fresh. The 7th Silver Seam suited the extra distance. The 8th Mexican Mist all the better for recent racing.

Read somewhere that yesterday may have been his last race (going out on a winning note)

[watsonnek]

According to an interview yesterday (with Tapdog's jock Roy McKay) they plan to start Tapdog in the Australia Day Cup at Ascot next. Tapdog won the Geraldton - Australia Day Cups double last year.

[westman]

Thanks watsonnek! I guess the D_O_G will continue to wag his tail :)

[Ade]

Just some bets...

PR1 Number 2 Cape North $10.00 a win.
PR3 Number 6 The Scientist $10.00 a place.

PR3 Numbers 10,2,5 Exacta boxed, will cost $6.00

[westi]

Paula Wagg trained Real Cheeky has been sold to Hong Kong interests and would not start in WA again.

Vain Crusader is currently having a lengthy spell with a view to campaigning on the East Coast later this year. However still the subject of huge offers from both Hong Kong and within WA.

[watsonnek]

Thanks westi, was wondering where Real Cheeky had got to

[Ade]

I know there is races which have classes of 1,2,3,4,5,6...listed, group 3,2,1.

Which order does this run from 6 to 1 or 1 to 6?

What is Class B?

Thanks

Bit of a profit. Got warm late. Just pipped (photo) for 2nd.

Thanks watsonnek! I guess the D_O_G will continue to wag his tail :)

Maybe not watsonnek :( The Tapd_o_g got stripped back right leg in the GC and pulled up lame. Possibility of bone damage.
