Pinjarra Today.

Been backing her and have said it's her last chance too often! However at around 7/1 going to the well one more time - she was a funny run at York - "lost the plot" going down the hill, looked might run nearly last, never going to win but did flatten out nicely over the concluding stages.

Am a sucker for punishment but going to back up each way, more for the place one final time!

The main three reasons are...
1. 1000 metres up the straight with no corners to get around will suit her.
2. Takahide Ikenushi - a strong hoop who hopefully will get the best out of her.
3. Barrier 13 - outside barrier to guide her home, a good draw at Pinjarra over the five furlongs.

If Flower Of Scotland dosent bloom into at least a place today, then that's it lock stock and barrel!

    Just watched a replay of the Lark Hill trial by The Beach - was very good. Well named out of a mare called Frizzled.

    Parnham inc. to the fore again.

    That's a big loss to the riding ranks - another double yesterday plus opening winner today at a price. Opens up opportunities to others though, but he's a terrific hoop.

    Freshened up will be strong at the penny section! Just hope she's within sight of them. Will be gun barrel straight today - has been a little untractable lately.

    Those 1000 metre races can be tricky, let's hope tricky enough to give her a chance.

    are you like me and a sucker for punishment riders.......
    you said it yourself those 1000m straight races are tricky.... I like to refer to them more as traps

    FOS looked ok to me BUT this race has a heap of depth and she is really poorly weighted. Will probably run a good 4th.

    Far out wish they were all that easy, early pace - up against the rail and just got stronger. Takahide and I gave her the big banzai and it was all over.
