Unfortunately the NSW TAB is not operating on tomorrow’s Kalgoorlie meeting, Perth Placegetter. :sad:

Good Luck anyway :wink:

Looks like it was a bit of a blowout for most punters. Talk about big improvement, amazing :eek:

Yes as they say FORM is still the best indication of a horses chance: HUH! "Space Age"
Fortunately it was a CLEAR selection for the latest PPM system (Partpoopers Plum Movers) see thread PPM snares 204-1 winner (Betting Systems Forum) then send your cheque/ credit card details without delay as there is a limited number of copies available!!

Did end up having a tiny bit EW on Space Age, Paddy. On his best Belmont run, rated some 3 lengths behind my top rated horse, so the 200/1 was too much to ignore, even allowing for Space Age's poor recent form up north.

As it turns out, the horse was suffering from ulcers (reported in this mornings press) which they obviously fixed. Too bad it was not common knowledge before the event!

Extracts courtesy The West Australian website:

SPACE Age (200/1), who rocketed into contention for next week's Kalgoorlie Cup with a sensational Boulder Cup victory on Saturday, may get a new rider.

Trainer Neville Parnham said yesterday he would discuss the issue with the horse's owners in the next 48 hours.

"Final riders aren't until Wednesday," the trainer said. "I will have a chat to the owners before then to see what they want to do."

The horse won the 2000 Gosford Cup (2100m) for trainer Neville McBurney and also had wins at Canterbury, Randwick and Rosehill. But his recent lacklustre form in Broome was responsible for his long odds. Murdoch University vets then found he had ulcers, the worst case they had seen.

TRAINER Ross Price is battling to overcome an injury to his stable star Wool Zone, favourite for Saturday's Swan Draught Kalgoorlie Gold Cup (2300m).

Wool Zone was ridden by Kevin Forrester when he finished 13th as $2.50 favourite to Space Age in Saturday's Boulder Cup (1760m). Forrester replaced Paul Harvey, who lost his bid for a stay of proceedings on Friday to keep the ride.

Wool Zone was last out of the gates and became caught in a ruck of horses about the 1200m mark when trying to improve his position. The four-year-old was trapped wide and knuckled down badly at the top of the straight, appearing to lose confidence on the rain-affected track.

Price said the horse had a cut on his near-hind tendon.

"I have kept the swelling down with cold water and ice," the trainer said yesterday.

"The wound is about the middle of the tendon and there is a bit of heat in it.

"He won't do a lot until Wednesday when he'll go back to the track."

Price said Jason Whiting and Glenn Smith were being considered for the ride on Wool Zone in the cup.

I see the NSWTAB is betting on the Hannan's Handicap on Thursday.

I'm tipping (1) Irish Pride (of course :cool: ). Also have a healthy respect for (2) Hardrada.

Both have a very good chance Paddy, Irish Pride is in fine form and does look well weighted, Hardrada on best form would be very hard to hold out.

Current fixed odds from the WATab are:-

IRISH PRIDE $3.50
HARDRADA $7.50
MR CALLAHAN $13.00
EASTERN STANDARD $5.50
MAPPERHOLIC $3.00
BEYOND DISPUTE $14.00
JASHAR BOY $17.00
MYSTERY MORN $26.00
POLITONIC $35.00
RURAL THUNDER $31.00
SHAKE MY HAND $21.00
SUPER COVET $41.00

(5) Mapperholic huge win last start. (4) Eastern Standard to lead them a merry dance. (1) Irish Pride is racing well. My value selection - sticking with (7) Jashar Boy.
