Was offline today but looks like Shaun and MyHatMyCoat covered my absence well :smile:

No joy Mr Tambourineman today, surprised didn't at least run a place.

No worries MyHatMyCoat. I think Peter Knuckey was the winner at $6.50. 1 of only 4 quoted under double figures, so was probably good value in hindsight.

My pocket is very (sadly) surprised as well Chenille Prince. Might start next week over 1900M if all OK. The step up in distance will obviously suit.

Thought INTOWISHIN ridden a treat by Pat Carbery who over the years has showed that he is one of the better 'distance' riders in WA (imo).

Great effort Shaun & MyHatMyCoat!

Shaun gave us 2 winners including POWER PATROL ($6.60) but most importantly the QUINELLA $54.40, EXACTA $111.30 & TRIFECTA $496.10 in race 4 (with only 3 picks) while MyHatMyCoat gave us 4 winners including SUPER TOM ($6.30) & SABRE CHIEF ($16.60) as well as KONJO (2nd) almost producing a boilover in the last paying $12 place. Also $39.20 tri R1, $91.60 tri R2 & QUINELLA $63.10 & EXACTA $151.70 in R7. Very unlucky not to scoop the lot in R7 – 4 selections for 1st, 2nd with the other 2 dead-heating for 4th!

Well done my boyos!!

That's good news Sandgroper.

PR7 20M out Paddy did have the lot, still made a nice profit on the race.

PR7
Our Big Marcus
Northern Beau
Avenida Madero
Island Light

PR8
Marchark
True Gleam
Tonnerre Noir
Dolly Ziuto

Not a bad effort PR7 CP filling the top 5 with your 4 selections. Good luck in the last.

Thanks Paddy. Unfortunately last race a total disaster. Best I could do was 4th (True Gleam) although did get beaten only a long head.

Ordinary fields on the weekend fellas!?

Yep, looks like racing Wed and Thur has taken it's toll a little.

I see MR. TAMBOURINEMAN is top-weight in 7th at Darwin Saturday.

Smallish field and step up to 1900M certainly in his favour.

Not sure if he could be penalised (Darwin Cup) if he won in which case might run a close 2nd :smile:

Heavily backed and 2nd. Just over 2 weeks to the Cup, assume we won't see him again till then.

Yeah 2nd :sad: Thanks for reminding me Perth Placegetter!

Reported in the press this morning that WA trainer Steve Wolfe's appeal against a 12-month ban over the fall of Savage Cabbage will go ahead next Monday.

Stewards originally banned Wolfe for 2 years for treating Savage Cabbage with the anti-inflammatory drug Phenylbutazone before the horse broke a leg and fell in a barrier trial at Belmont Park on October 28, 2002. The ban was later reduced to 1 year.

Still in the field WFA METRIC MILE this Sat Perth Placegetter. Perhaps another start is on the cards.

William Pike returns from suspension on Saturday. Already booked to ride Reward, Diffraction, Stir Pak & Moss Minster.
