Hi, bit of a review of yesterday’s action. Excellent finish by Irish Pride for 2nd at Caulfield and payed for the trip earning connections $15k. In the Orr, Fred would be very happy with Northerly’s close 4th.
R1 – Well done Paddy,El Gordo on Glitzy Show, hope you both got some of that 3/1. In fluctuations She’s Captivating was the one you didn’t want to be on (about 13/8 -> 5/2). Poor ride but its part of pre-analysis, where will it settle, what pace etc etc. I got that wrong. In a field with more runners/speed she could break through. My True Choice, take away it’s 33/1 win 2 sts ago and it has shocking form, had every chance in front.
R3 – Make Mine Scotch(11/1) was the cry at the bar for those who backed either of the favorites. Twin City Girl had its chance. Quasarock wasn’t left alone by Triconya, both dropped right out.
R4 – Double to PKnuckey on Essential Terms. Flashing 3rd was Arrian, won 2ndup last prep. so worth a look next race.
(Alan Sansom is having a run of outs).
R5 – Good odds again Main Stage(9/2->7/2), now 3 wins from last 4 and again ran a fast last sectional.
R6 – Every chance Field Commander. Plonk of the day Regal Tactic (5/1->7/2) was a bit wide still ran well as this was on pace dominated. Winner Bandolero had an easy time in front and now won last 2.
R7 – Outstanding win to Inzaghi, they look great in front with sustained speed.The surprise was how short Tribulations was and they took the 6/4 early. Good run Beyond Dispute, probably go up in distance now. Shocker to Mixed Lad, stewards report please.
R8 – Double to JWhiting as the real Fireband produced today swamped them. Hope you got the 4s El Gordo. Family Dreams less than ¾ len away came home well. Forget Ebony Magic went around.
Top week to all.
