There is an excellent Pinjarra Cup assembled for tomorrow with mainly big fields the order of the day on a 9 event card.
Redcraze, I’d add to Sandgroper’s comment about Pure Penny saying I’m not sure where she’ll settle from an awkward draw and with a query or two about her I’ll risk her today.
Today Ascot rail 6m.
R1 – An interesting contest. Selection is 3 BURRINGTON COOMBE, settle forward somewhere and finish off. Last win was a long time ago but over c/d, this race weaker than last week, jock’s been in good form. If odds are good I’ll put something on 4 General Grant, only won 1 race but this is weaker, was given windburn by Instantaneous last start nonetheless had improvement in him, well drawn could race handy-ish. 5 Scenic Cruise a chance, needs speed on. Don’t like Cherry Blossom who might cross and lead, won last 2 easy, has top jock. and fitter, but I’ll risk it.
R2 – Several queries in a good speed race, I’ll tip 2 BLEEPAK to improve on it’s first up, bit unlucky effort. From bar 12 rely on in-form Whiting riding it well. Devil’s Dance is also in R6 a 1400m 3yo race, connections unsure? Virelay 1stup a definite query. Don’t like Ginger Gem, might settle outside lead(ers), hope she’s short cause I’ll risk her.
R3 – This is the race for 1 TAPDOG. No fancy odds (though 5 Killadeas isn’t far on ratings) but he’s ready to salute in town. Bar 9 tricky, may even race forward without tearaway leaders engaged. 3 Super Tom ran improved run last start , has the Wolfe/Hall combo.
R5 – No selection here. Who can run a faster sectional, Instantaneous or Fred Who? They’ll be eye-balling each other at the rear early in this. Open Company debut for exciting Instantaneous. Heart-in-mouth with him. Has good draw today but I guess they’ll ride him the same way. Dare I say it the non-winner Dedicated Miss a chance again today. What to do with Fred Who, up 400m on last start, flopped both runs this dist. as fav. Voltega an on-pacer a chance, Malwalkie is a good horse not ready today but should improve. The toppie well drawn, best dist. Good race.
R8 – Careful here. I’ll go 5 MOGUL to race forward and improve from its 1st up good effort. Had 3 weeks off. They’re backing up Essential Terms quickly after last week’s unlucky effort, good draw. The very good Zoometric runs well fresh, has bad draw.
Top day to all forumites.
