This thread is for members to post their WA tips - eg Ascot Saturdays, Ascot Midweek, Pinjarra, Mt Barker, Bunbury etc, etc.

Good luck to everyone, let's hope we can add to each other's pot of gold (as Paddy would say) :wink:

Hi Magoo, Rogues March has been scratched. He will have to keep for another day. Did intend to post my comments, which were to be along the lines......."Have rated Rogues March a close 2nd for this race, top rated is Paris Bank. Is an open race with a number of other chances".

Ascot R6 No's 9 and 11 (Blue Nonna/Opus Rose Quinella)

Hi Redcraze, don’t like the Ascot meeting today as betting medium, saving my money for Saturday. For what it is worth, race 6 looks to be very open but your two I have rated as genuine winning chances – Blue Nonna looks to have a slight edge over Opus Rose.

If you can get decent odds for horses 1,2,3,10 or 15 (I’ve rated these as your main dangers) might be worth having a saver.

Ascot today - Thursday 20th Feb.

R1: A few unraced, watch for any betting moves. Yarraman could be the best of the unraced. Of the raced brigade, Woodlore looks the best, Marshall Vic next best, Business Broker some change if improves on first run.

R2: May not be a lot of speed in this race which would suit Ginger Gem. Mega Me, She's A Kite & Shirbella also look chances.

R3: Bleepak first-up should be too classy. What A Legend & Broadcasting should be main dangers.

R4: Taolani on best form will be hard to beat. Fly Fonteyn a big danger if her last run was not a fluke. Bonna Bonita & Blue Ballerina also chances.

R5: Abu Dhabi looks well suited. Paris Bank with Harvey aboard will be hard to beat. Expect Mr Debernals & Super Tom to both be running on.

R6: Scenic Cruise to win again. Fandang meeting Scenic Cruise better at the weights, but Fandang's second-up record not all that flash. Have to respect Malwalkie with Harvey aboard. Blue Nonna a chance at odds.


R7: Pienodze well drawn & well weighted. Respect for Forceful from Vic - has a good first-up record. Permanent Grin another well drawn & well weighted. Rustic Hero & Blazing Morn also chances at odds.

R8: Expect End Path to sit on Cougar Roar and be too strong for that horse. For third like True & Correct. Decoder & Urastat chances at odds.

6 winners to you El Gordo including Blazing Morn at $24.60 & $7.40 and some 2nd's & 3rd's to boot.

Well done buckaroos!!

Ascot 22/2

I am confident i can break my duck in Perth courtesy of "FRED WHO" - Race 7.

Very stiff last run, just did not get a crack at them at all. Drawn well and with any luck at all, I will collect and recoup some of my losses.

Well done El Gordo, again right on the money. Thanks Sandgroper for the info, I'll have to keep a closer eye on the thread as Paris Bank right in the finish.

Noticed Rogues March in Race 2 at Albany tomorrow - probably won't offer much value but worth keeping an eye on.

Good luck to all

Magoo

Non-WA punters it’s wet in the east dry in the west so for Ascot grab a good form guide, spend the time,have a betting strategy and you could finish in front. Northerly is at 11am.
The Rail is into 4m, was 5m on Thursday.

R2 – pin job, 6.5 chances, so some notes….1MyTrueChoice let Rickitave cross, settle 2nd,2kg pull from Glitzy Show…2ShesCapitivating dist?,should beat GlitzyShow… 3Rickitave beat DreamofStorms recent trial,leader,4weeks break…4GlitzyShow dist?…5 InParadisum scr. Thurs, Fly Fonteyn confirmed form Thurs.,…6 ABonnyDrop very good recent 1600m runs…7MissPolygraph big cls rise,won last 2……best of luck in this

R3 – Tango Man deserves to win one, good 2nd last week. From bar1 with the claim Twin Power has every chance, good 4th c/d Nov. behind Blevvo. Turnerz improved a lot last start. My lays are the in-form Clan Noble(dual accept. R5) and Money is Magic(1st 1800m run and an in-and-out type).

R4 – . Dream of Storms missed place only once in 19sts(!) and resumes, 2nd recent B/T . Time is Money sat 2nd behind a fast early Miss Torpago 3 weeks ago, prev. 2 wins c/d, bar 3, good chance. Princess Neillena could be thereabouts as well, back after a break.

R5 – Trainer Smith/jock. PHarvey make a good combo and with Arrian could surprise by racing forward. Did this last prep over c/d for 2nd. Top return 1st up. About a year ago Cento led t/o over the c/d. Forget last week,not fully tested. Will lead if Rickitave doesn’t accept(as also in R2). Instantaneous will want Ricktave to start in this along with Benvaro and Cento putting on some pace, but I’ll lay it.

R6 – several chances so some notes…..jockey(manager) choices -> PHarvey opted for Narcissim over Kontiki Sir. JWhiting has selected Poziere over Merlos. PKnuckey has selected Killadeas over Sir Honour…..1ClanNoble dual acceptor R3, never carried 58.5kg…..3Tapdog good chance, SJMiller back on.

R7 – ripper Listed 40k 1200m. I can’t pick the winner. Dexian won’t win but is untapped and could compete interstate eventually, interesting to see how he returns after long-ish spell.

R8 – So I’ve waited all day for a decent bet and if odds allow I’ll back two. 4 Moon Talk and 5 Old Beau. I see Moon Talk settling probably behind Bandolero or a touch further back, get the split and ping. The query is how much improvement is in Old Beau 2nd up. Smith/PHarvey combo, and distance suits better. Hoping punters back a couple of others I haven’t mentioned.

Top day to all.

It's nice to see one of my old brissie favourites in Perth -
Turnerz in race 3

Might have a few on it for old times sake, is certainly a capable horse on it's day, however have not see it's runs of late, and don't know too much about the opposition. Good luck to all betting today.

Cheers
Cosmo

Good morning all, some top racing today.

Good luck with Fred Who today Redcraze. In that same race (7) fancy Fireband (3) to win, should sit just behind the pace and prove too strong for them. Family Dreams (12) a similar run to get 2nd. For 3rd I will include Storm Shot (6). Might also include for the novelties - Kensyl Bay (1) & Tribula (2). Should be a great race, with plenty of pace.
