Apr 8 Ascot - girl vs boy
WA Carnival in full swing next Saturday, Ladies Day, with the WA Oaks. Wave Rock the favorite.
Following Saturday there's the WA Derby and of course the 2YO Karrakatta Plate. From this weekends racing we're in for an almighty clash with two outstanding 2yos.
Paris Petard will no doubt start favorite as she carried 58.5kg and will drop to 53.5kg, won 5/5, and won twice over the Ascot 1200m. She also ran about 4lens faster in her last 600m sectional than the c&g division. S.Mcgruddy looked to be working a bit on her on the turn then she let down brilliantly.Fred Kersley has another good one.
Canny Jack will carry 56kg(from the 55kg on Sat.) and had some front end speed to help him. But his potential is really untapped. He picked them up in about 3 strides then J.Whiting let him float along the last 50m. The 1200m should also suit him. Champion trainer George Daly.
With some other races like St.Leger, Sires' Produce, Strickland, Hyperion quality racing will be at both ends of Australia. Bring it on!
