When legged up aboard Masked Party in the Group One William Reid Stakes it was soon to be the beginning of a great run of eight wins for Willy Pike, 5 in Victoria and 3 in WA.
Winners and approx odds.
Masked Party 6/1
Ginger Jones 9/1
Dom To Shoot 9/4
Mount Poppa 11/8
Laverod 6/1
How’s The Serenity 2/1
Let’s Cut Loose 7/4
Final Chill 4/1
Not even close to an odds favourite amongst them, meaning each of those eight winners all odds on to lose. With the Group One victory - they don’t give ‘em away and it’s been a big few days.

Backing horses not to win - that’s taking the ultimate odds on bet ( unless runner odds on itself then you’d get close to or better than black figures ) you’d need a big % success rate to be in front.
Possibly the one way to win in this game - apart from taking your money out of the left pocket and putting it in your right pocket - keep cool, stand and deliver and lay every odds on favourite in Perth racing throughout the year - Pike or no Pike.
Enough of them get beaten, it’s the 6 or 7 that may win a row that you have to absorb though and thats easier said than done.
When they start to get rolled it’s happy days - 2/5 or $1.40 rather be holding them than backing them overall.
