Ascot Twilight 20-2-18
West Australian RacingAfternoon All. What a cracking day to be having a beer at Ascot today. Pity I'm at work. :(|) I thought I would kick of a thread with a few I don't mind.
Race 1. Letting this one go through to the keeper. 5 horse mystery
Race 2. $61 winner at first start in Kal, then a cracking run in Magic Millions. Can He Rule Her,
Race 3. Can not get Uni Time's first up run out of my head. It was huge.
Race 4. Dynabelle, Always showed a little bit and trainer doesn't bring them to town unless they can win.
Race 5. Will sit this one out and watch, Indominus. Liked it's trial of an impressive last start win last campaign.
Race 6.Same as above with Axe R Eight.
Race 7. Pike and Peters and an up and coming staying 3 yr old increasing in trip. Take the $3.10. BET OF THE DAY
Happy Punting fellow PTTers
And for those looking at Sandown's night meeting in between races. Race 4 Rays Dream @ $8.50. Speedy Filly and loves Sandown.

wasn't suited going forward, just didn't settle well enough. Gutsed it out well though
When saw Flower Of Scotland just battling after a hard trip was looking for the big number 13 to let down and it did!
Nine times out of ten with two $20 winners quaddie divi would go through the roof unless other two legs are both favourite and both Pike.
That Flower Of Scotland can win a race it boxed on but often draws badly and sits wide. Just a horse but will get away with a softer run one day and salute.
There was no other horse you wanted to be on as they approached the bend! I’ve never seen a horse travel so well and let down the way it did for a 20/1 pop in months
Next start.
The other good run in the last was Without Reason noticed him sitting three wide without cover and could be one to follow. Got home well for third placing.
It's was 48kgs for years and years ( 46 in big races ) then 50 that was a huge difference then 51, 52, when it got to 53 that was astounding.
Some horses must carry weight better than others too - and they'll need to - the minimum weight scale is constantly on the rise.
On this rate a minimum of 60kgs is not that far away. Without doubt it's the biggest change have seen in racing.

Also am betting on a 60kg minimum within 10 - 12 years.
You can't ask the good ones to carry too much or there'll be a real hue and cry ( from you know who ) weights will have to become more and more compressed.
Wont be around to see it but 40 or 50 years down the track it will be very interesting.
In futures betting I'm on a 65kg minimum by then - and that the whip will be long gone. They can send winnings to the great racetrack in the sky.
The other C.Webster horse that ran in the money earlier on is one to follow
I hadn't seen that since race 3. Dani Bella won like a 1.50 pop
