R8. Amelia Park Handicap - Perth Turf Talk Narrowing the final race down to 4 horses, the two favourites in Pounamu and Socially Unique and then two for a bit of value coming from the same race in Next Contestant and Riki Tiki Tavi. Pounamu could…
-
R7. Stone Motherless After The Races Handicap - Perth Turf Talk This is quite possibly the hardest race of the day. Big question mark over Paris Dream stepping up from a mile to 2100m and we've seen many flop at their first attempt over a journey…
-
R6. Functions At Ascot Handicap - Perth Turf Talk Taking a little stance against Regal Commander here and leaving him out of my top 4. With a gun barrier draw, a noted front-running apprentice and a 1.5kg weight swing on Volkoff I'm going with Be…
-
R5. Happy Waitangi Day Handicap - Perth Turf Talk Already Famous is a galloper I would consider to be fool-proof. Rarely runs a bad race and with a career places strike rate of 56% after 36 starts, a second-up record of 5 starts for 2 wins and W.…
-
R4. Bush Fire Appeal Raceday - Feb 20 Handicap - Perth Turf Talk Really happy to play Marchand here as the value runner to potentially knock off the more favoured Kennocha. Just comparing the quality of opposition last start I think Marchand can …
-
R3. Lunar Raceday Next Saturday Handicap - Perth Turf Talk I never thought I would be tipping Vengabus over a mile but the way he kept finding late in the race last start suggests he will have no troubles at all. Aaron Mitchell jumps aboard for s…
-
R2. Perth Racing Young Membership Handicap - Perth Turf Talk This race has no depth to it at all and I normally wouldn't be jumping aboard a horse coming out of a Pinjarra maiden victory but I think this race is perfect for Rosewood Hill. If Nosk…
-
R8. In The Memory Of Max Simmonds Oam - Scott Embry Baraki beats finally broke through last start, and unsurprisingly led from start to finish. I am a firm believer that this horse has to lead to win. I feel that there is enough speed in this rac…

R7. Raceday Hospitality At Ascot Handicap - Scott Embry Hopefully we see Pike steer Red Ora to victory in the previous race and is full of confidence to ride a race to race double. Has the ride on Crystal Gardens for Adam Durrant, and interesting…
-
R6. Scenic Blast Stakes - Scott Embry A small but quality field to go around and fight it out for the Scenic Blast Stakes. Red Ora returns first up without a trial after being tipped out when flying home with the 59kg to finish 3rd in the Hannans…
-
R5. Vale Jeremy Hayes Handicap - Scott Embry A good, open race to start off the quaddie legs with 6 out of the 9 runners opening up under $10. Classical prince sat 3 wide in it's first up run behind Kennocha and fought on strongly to only be beat…
-
R4. Happy 60th Birthday Ray Collins Handicap - Scott Embry Finally a race with more than 7 runners, and another short priced favourite involved. The Durrant trained gelding steps back up to 2100m and guns for 3 victories in a row. With Pike on bo…
-
R3. Flying Colours Madfish Promotion Plate - Scott Embry Yet another small field and yet another short priced favourite in the likes of Blackwood. Returns after a short let up and quite a dissapointing (and money burning) last campaign. It is a m…
-
R2. Waitangi Day Next Saturday At Ascot Plate - Scott Embry Here we see the return of the highly talented filly in Hot Goods, undefeated in her 5 career starts and looks set to take care of these gallopers with ease to make it 6 from 6. Trialled …
-
R7. Wa Bush Fire Appeal Raceday - Feb 20 Handicap - Chris Nelson Another open leg of the quaddie and not a race I'm overly keen to play in. I've settled on Saker who finally cracked it for another win after a short career riddled with bridesmaid …
-
R8. Stone Motherless After Race 8 Handicap - Chris Nelson Same as last weeks card there is definitely no easy get out. Expecting eachway the field in this and with Red Ora drawing barrier 16 of 16 coupled with the 61.5kg impost I think it should …
-
R6. Vale Michael \'mick\' Taylor Handicap - Chris Nelson Completely in the dark without any fixed odds available currently but I'm hoping that we can get an eachway price about Clobberetta in the sixth. Last start settled last behind impressive m…
-
R5. Membership Pro-rata Rates Handicap - Chris Nelson Breaking all the rules here and putting my own horse Savanarola on top. This looks very winnable after a rough gig in the Perth Cup. Drawn very wide he was swimming in alcohol fumes from the c…
-
R4. Perth Racing #ascothappens Plate - Chris Nelson Absolutely no surprise at all to see a Trevor Andrews quinella in the 2 year old race. Sticking with the debutant winner The River. He was green as grass and still managed to get the job done ov…
-
R3. Amelia Park Plate - Chris Nelson Rhi's Rocket was speced at odds to knock off boom Casey galloper Vega Magic and really poured the pressure on throughout before fading into third beaten just over 2 lengths. Should find the front easily here i…
-
R2. Australia Day Cup - Chris Nelson I'm going to mark Reflectance as the Best Bet on the card. Without any fixed odds markets available I'm pretty in the dark as to whether or not he will be an eachway price but I'd say unlikely. Thinking Vengab…
-
R8. 5 Saturdays Of Summer - $5 Only Handicap - Scott Embry Hoping that by the last I've made enough coin to cover the days investments in beer and racing because there is no easy get out in the last from Ascot. Kim Command is a wet track speciali…
-
R7. Fires Appeal - Www.appealswa.org.au Handicap - Scott Embry I think it is full steam ahead for Onadowntowntrain here finally dropping back to a realistic winning trip. 1000m is his go. His 4 career runs have all come at 1000m. Last 3 runs you …
-
R6. Miss Andretti Stakes - Scott Embry Lucky Street was super in the Summer Scorcher after drawing wide, working forwards, settling 3 deep with cover and then peeling out 4 wide before the home corner to make a run at Sheidel and almost nabbing h…
-
R5. Lunar Raceday - Feb 13 Handicap - Scott Embry In a race which I'm sure many have labeled as a 2 horse race I'm going with the lesser of the two fancies and tipping against the cerise and white and the throttle hold they have over racing in WA…
-
R4. Perth Racing Newsletter Plate - Scott Embry Cone Bay simply could not have been more impressive first-up when an effortless 5 length winner leading from start to finish. From barrier 3 Kyra Yuill should have no troubles at all finding the fen…
-
R3. Perth Waitangi Day At Ascot - Feb 6 Handicap - Scott Embry Trilled to see The Pontiff riding at 54.5kg. I can't remember the last time he managed to do that and it's given me the confidence to put Tudor Bolt on top. I'm not a massive fan of t…
-
R2. Flying Colours Summer Special Plate - Scott Embry I was pretty keen on One Short in the opening 5 horse farce on Wednesday at Pinjarra because of the high opinion I hold on The Celt. By no means is he in the same class as The River was last w…
-
R4. Perth Racing Tv Plate - Scott Embry I can only make one case for going to the track on Saturday and that is to witness Lite'n in my veins destroy opponents in race 4. I confidently threw him out on debut in a Group 3 race and he duly saluted.…
-
R8. 5 Saturdays Of Summer - $5 Only Handicap - Scott Embry Putting my faith in The Pontiff, Paul Harvey to carry me home in the last aboard Django. I thought his last start effort flying late behind Antique Dream was very impressive. Glenn Smith …
