R2: I'm going to back leaders back to be the place to be again and have something on Legendary Lou(10). $26/$3.60 available on Sportsbet at the moment outstanding value. Michael Grantham on Typhoon Tan is an aggressive driver so I expect him to lead, I'd be disappointed if he handed up to Robyn's CC as they would be diminishing their winning chances. Then just a matter of luck for Legendary Lou to get out, Dean Miller driven a couple of nice races during the week, he can continue that here. Not over complicating this one although I think 1,2,3,10,11 are all going to get the nice runs so you could play the novelties around them.
Tip:No10 Legendary Lou. Bet No10 Legendary Lou Win and Place, stacked the place.

R3: This is a tough race. No1 Soho Monza likes to lead, has just moved into the Kristian Hawkins stable and he has shown he can get them going. Is an aggressive driver so I expect it to be leading. I think that The Black Lord has to come out running so that should put a bit of speed into it, wouldn't be surprised to see Bettorbeastar, Courage Tells and Macon Georgia want to go forward at the start. I liked 12 Mr Nickel the other day and if there is the speed I suspect 12 wont be too bad a draw, I give him a chance of finishing over the top of them at odds. Algranco Under Fire has to be a player in this class. Also liked Go West You Terror last week. Think this could be a rare race at GP where the 3 wide line is a big player come the finish.
Tip: No12 Mr Nickel. Bet: EW No12 Mr Nickel.

R4: I suspect No2 Donegal Chokin will be capable of leading these up and at $8 on sportsbet at the moment is a terrific price. Is racing very well at the moment, think it leads and wins. Every single horse in this race has some winning chance, luck in running to play a major part.
Tip: No2 Donegal Chokin. Bet: No2 Donegal Chokin win. Paly an early quad banking him: 1,10/1,3,10/1,9,12/2. 100% costs $18.

R5: I do like to watch the trotters, fantastic animal. I do not however like to bet on the trotters and i'm confident that i'm not alone, to program this as the first leg of the main quad grinds my gears and shows that whoever is doing the programing doesn't worry too much about turnover. I haven't got the foggiest on the form other than No10 Earl Of Charity seems to win very easily when it does things right! Drawn wide might actually be a good thing as I suspect we may see some bubble as they try to get out quickly over the sprint trip so if forced he'd be the way I would go. Good luck.

R6: Loved No1 Cyamach the other day and at first glance this looks great for him. My question though is does Mach Alert come out flying? I think it does, i'm expecting sparks! So I can't bring myself to back either of them even though they are obviously the main winning chances on ability. No9 Copagrin is flying. You will know if he's a winning chance after they have gone 100m so I won't be having more than pocket change on him as if the 2 mentioned don't go hard they will walk and Copagrin will be out of it t the back. 
Tip:No1 Cyamach. Bet: No9 Copagrin small EW.

R7: Wow Phoenix Warrior as short as $1.80, leave me out of that! I think it needs multiple miracles to hold up and the mile is absolute not its go. Just does not look his race to me. I actually think 6 Better Than Money crosses which will pave the way for 10 Ti Amo Franco to follow it over, take it up and win. $11 with 365, hopefully that with the TAB. It is a lot harder to cross from wide over this trip rather than 2130m but I just think their early speed is going to be superior. I'm going to play the novelties around them. I could be way wrong but I think panic stations may set in with Phoenix Warrior and he might end up finding trouble and finishing down the track, if things do work out for him though the talent is obviously there to play a part. I'm not brave enough to rule any of them out for the novelties so just going to play for tiny percentages. 
Tip: No10 Ti Amo Franco. Bet: Win No10 Ti Amo Franco, FF:10/6/FD/FD. 100% costs $42. Might take 10%!   then rotate through.

R8: No1 Devendra to lead throughout? No one has the speed to cross it early, there will be horses that want to go forward but if it is coping a lot of pressure I feel it will be undue. Time will tell what's going to happen. Talk of My Hard Copy to go 3 back the fence, very hard to give up such a beautiful draw in the moving line. The thinker in me can't help but conclude that with Run Oneover and My Hard Copy having the same connections Devendra may well be going to cop that early pressure. The best option for Run Oneover is to take the 1,1 on Lovers Delight thinking that horse is likely to put others off trying to take the breeze. The problem with that is AC Lewis is not likely to over do it in that position so there wouldn't be enough pressure on. If you think of Run Oneover and My Hard Copy as a package deal then absolutely the best chance of winning is Run Oneover kicking through and holding the breeze at all costs, thus putting more pressure on Devendra and having MHC sitting pretty 1,1 nice and close to the speed. The more I think the stronger I feel this is the likely scenario. Under those circumstances Lovers Delight is in a lot of pain. Devendra can still win as i'm reasonably confident we wont see another Toretto. Beadiene Boaz an obvious player, it will be hard to rate back and keep him in if MHC is surging 3 wide so Jnr should be getting off late. Should be a great race, don't like that i'm anticipating it with nerves as to wether everyone is going to be given a fair chance but that's the nature of WA pacing at the moment, I suspect it should all be ok, i'm happy enough if Run Oneover does elect to keep the breeze. If Run Oneover does kick up don't be surprised to see John Of Arc pop around to the breeze once Lovers Delight is out of the way.
Tip: No1 Devendra. Bet: I've backed Devendra at $3 and MHC at $7.50, moved away from my no confidence earlier in the week!

R9: A 2536m race with some early speed in it, this may end up being a survival of the fittest. Bhagwan was a fantastic result for me last week. After causing the interference though I suspect K Sheehy may be a bit gun shy and be at the mercy of A Cortopassi. Two ways to look at it, Ginas Ingot who is a horse with a fair amount of ability and great gate speed has had a lot of time off so i'd suggest it has had an injury. You never know how many runs you are going to get out of one who has had issues so do you bite the bullet and go for an all the way win when one is going to be trying to cross you or do you take the easy option and trail it around, pick up some money and hope to fight on another day? Time will tell. I'd hold up ha ha! Delete And Deny was entitled to do more last start, loves the trip but I don't like it here being likely to breeze.No10 Major Rush at $26 Sportsbet is an EW bet to nothing. He will just be smoking the pipe and is a morale to be weaving late as others tire, big player. I suspect No9 Sir Slick will be a player as well, grab hold be patient and fly past the tiring runners. I'm liking some at odds tonight!
Tip: No10 Major Rush. Bet: Think I'll be backing both No10 Major Rush and No9 Sir Slick with novelties around 4,7,9,10 to win for small percentages.

R10: Small field, some very good horses though. Harry Hoo is just going to be getting home too quickly I think for anyone to catch him.
