Hey stix,
Noone seems to be breaking records in melbourne, Im hoping your going to post your thoughts for tomorrow, Ill add my thoughts as well. Maybe between a few of us we can find that elusive winner!!

Moonee Valley 16 July 2005
 

My Thoughts for MV tomorrow:

Race 1:
(1) Purple Chocolate - In form, has 2kg claim and barrier will be no problem. Powerful finish, so tight MV track only query
(4) Time Matters - Nice on pace run last start, was well beaten by the (1) but is still improving, nice price aswell
(6) It ain't Easy - This is harder but last few runs have been good, performed in the ground and distance no problem
(3) Regalo - is some chance but will be beaten by the barrier

Race 2:
(2) Change of Class AND
(1) Miss Gaultier are clearly the stand out two in this race, both have the full claim. I think (1) Miss Gaultier has been running better times is unbeaten at the distance and her over (2) Change of Class - but nothing will beat either of them (famous last words)
(3) Amazing Trace - has been close last few starts and has one only start at track

Race 3: (Steeple..... good luck)
(5) Real Tonic - Had a good jumps record and was very promising before injury, won schooling last week at value
(2) Corrupted - Has been consistent and switch to larger speed bumps in his favour
(1) Nicobury - Ultra consistent (read costly) but is very very honest, in it for a long way

Race 4:
(2) Silver Birch - unlucky last start and blocked at critical stage, finished well and seems to be getting back to best and likes track only negative is barrier but gets back anyway
(1) Aquiline - Very honest horse has wide barrier so will go hard early and pace inside him might use too much, better barrier would see him on top
(4) Club Red - A country/provincial horse who's country form has solid, the track and conditions will suit and no weight with claim over 2000m a plus
(11) Ski for Kings - Can run a very cheeky race (Somethin' the win , triple the place)

Race 5:
(2) Edgeton - has the record to suggest he'll be in it, run good time first up after a layoff, so fit and has the right barrier to sit forward
(3) Tarn Princess - Flying at the minute and has to be hard to chase down, to beat the (2) and (3) from the back would need to run 33 even for last 600 on a slow track - hard to do.
(9) Lord of Lauriston - Very promising young horse and running at pet distance and with N Ryan on board will be handy enough to catch the (2) and (3) - he looks a great chance

Race 6:
(6) Power and Faith - has been working up to a win and has everything in his favour
(2) Korcula - Another with a good effort last start and unlucky the start before that, might get back a little to far
(1) Barabba Road - Very consistent and seems to be handling the rain affected tracks, but slow track is the query against him

Race 7:
(1) Tantat Secret - running at ideal distance just too short last start and weakened over the 1600 2 starts back
(4) Itsechuca - good provincial form and wouldn't bring it to town if it wasn't going well
(3) Above Deck - has won at this track and distance and at odds could go close - track condition is a query as races mid-field

Race 8:
(2) Froth and Bubble - is well over due (costly) and runs well this distance, barrier is a concern being a front runner, but should have pace to get there early
(4) Pentiara - Last start win, beat good open field and handles the track and distance is right
(7) Plans - Has a good pilot (n Ryan) and has no weight

Best (1) Miss Gaultier (Race 2)
Best E/W (4) Itsechuca(Race 7)
Best Roughie (5) Real Tonic (Race 3)

Good luck

Yours In Punting

Stix

im thinking the same
 

hey stix,,,im thinking the same about miss gaultier,she had one look at valley for a third and three goes at at the distance for three wins ,,,the only question mark for me is the one week back up as its hard to see the vic races over here(W.A)and idont know how hard she got pushed last week,any info would be great ,,,,,,,,,,,cheers..gaz..

Gaz

Defied a Drift in betting last week, has less weight with claim and is back against own sex....

Which is enough for me !!

Stix

thanx
 

just reading the sportsman stix and it looks like she been working well during the week ,,,,might have a good crack at her if she''s not to short.cheers gaz.........

NOT REAL CONFIDENT IN MELBOURNE TODAY.
Heres a few thoughts anyway.

Race 1.
Ill put vision and power on top, made up a bit of ground last week should thrive on the extra journey. Purpole chocolate and regalo for multiples.

Race 2
Harder to pick than a broken nose. Cant split miss gaultier, change of class, startui or electric puha. stay away from this one for me.

Race 3
Steeple. Ill just pop outside and through a dart. Im back, I hit iggy but who knows.

Race 4
Silver birch is due to run a good race, raced without luck last time and shouldnt mind the conditions.

Race 5
throw another dart.

Race 6
Like krayzelberg a lot here. Make this my bet of the day at melbourne. In what looks to be an open race there might be a bit of value there for him.

race 7 and 8 will be left alone, maybe froth and bubble in the last.

Good luck all

well nice start to the day there, five units on trifecta plus the winner, hope it continues!!!
