Hi all,

my first post here, thought you might like my thoughts on a real tough card at Flemington:

Race 1 - 6 Red for Lou
2 - 15 Speedy Rossa
3 - 3 Future Analysis
4 - 8 Wild Classic
5 - 11 Pink Fit
6 - 9 Jennings
7 - 4 Perlin
8 - 15 Wildly
9 - 18 Astrodame

These should be all good eachway chances, IMHO.

Good luck

Harry

Welcome and good luck.

Good luck with your tips.

Astrodame i have been following for a very long time!, first up was very good, the weight was all that beat it. If it gets a run (2nd emerg) it will give it a real shake. The only thing that worries me is that Hyland has opted for the other Mayfield-Smith horse in Lyrical Bid.
I also think Ballet Society will run a big race in the Bobby Lewis, Race 8. From gate 2 looks a safe EW bet.

Yep noticed that Rudolph but reckon Lycra needs a good track or better, form on anything worse is pretty poor

Yep, but thought Lyrical needs a good or better track

Ballet hasnt run for a while, whats its fresh form like?

Same race - 8

was really looking at Omaru storm, but thought it was too short, although hasnt raced for 2 months...........any thoughts?

Yep, wouldn't touch Lyrical Bid if the track was any worse than dead.


Ballet Society is 1 from 3 first-up, but it's fresh form goes alright. If the inside is the place to be, i can't see it being beaten.

Melbourne

r2/ Comfort Stretch & Australian Arch just for value & giggles. Fave looks a good thing though

r5/ Lieutenant & Noble Red

r6/ Undoubtedly & Written Tycoon

r7/ Hollow Bullet & OS Joe. I've backed Joe his last 2 starts at 15/1, so I can let him go around without me here if too short. I'm just thinking race fitness might count for something here. Dday for HB.

r8/ Falkirk & Sky Cuddle. G1 winner at this track, only beaten 0.5L in G1 George Ryder last prep. Knockout horse at odds. One more bet on Falkirk for ol' times sake.

r9/ Catscan if 9/1 or better

Sydney

r5/ Media, good thing of the day for mine. Raced 3 wide no cover 2nd up.

r6/ Will back something to beat Manton out of spite. I admit I havent seen its last start win, but it does look a stupid price for mine. He's Canny, good barrier, 3rd up.

r8/ Gunfire Messiah
