I'll be treating tomorrow's Perth Cup as just another metrop middle distance race. No offence Sandgroper, but looks pretty poor class to me, even for a Perth Cup - why don't they move it to a better time of the year - to attact some decent interstate stayers?


For me (3) Celtus looks the best chance, but admit pretty short odds.

(2) Free At Last, same owner as Celtus tp give Mrs J M Evans the quinella.

(9) Higgins Gold for third.

(8) Include Glitzy Show for some value.



Also tomorrow like (3) Prince Of Vasac & (7) Corporate Rocket in the 1st. (5) Chaumont in the 2nd. Tri in the 3rd - 1,2 & 4. (12) Pretentious in the 8th & (12) Family Money in the last.

Good luck everyone & have a great new year!

Forgot to comment on what is your best race tomorrow - race 7. Top field of flyers, interesting to see what time they run. Still working out my bets for the race - should get some value.

Anyway, considering most starters have been around for a while, what I found intriguing, is that Secret Remedy, Polygram, Double Jewel & Moon Talk are all wearing blinkers for the 1st time. Seems a little unusual to me anyway :roll:

I reckon SUPERIOR STAR is the lob.

Back at Ascot and over ground more suitable.

SUPER SPECIAL

Certainly has the pedigree to run out the 2 miles Wexford. After all dad did run 2nd in the Melbourne and Sydney Cups over the distance.

Here's the Quartet or pick 4

No 3 Celtus
No 4 Superior Star
No 1 True Steel
No 2 Free at Last

Good Luck

Nice start Boop, thanks.

No worries Rogan Josh, was a nice price, wasn’t it? Managed 1st & 2nd & 4th in the tri (race 3) Chaumont & Pretentious were both very disappointing & Family Money was scratched. Re my blinkers post (race 7) – I think the results answer my query – didn’t miss out on the omen, boxed them in the multiples :grin:
