  • R3. Tabtouch Handicap - Scott Embry I was very ready to sack Don'tgetcaught a few starts back and left him as untouched as the veges on a teenagers dinner plate last start behind boom galloper Material Man, however, with the gear change I am givi…
  • R2. Amelia Park Lamb Handicap - Scott Embry Pounamu is known within a number of WA circles as "The Bookies Horse" after being a beaten favourite at his past six outings. It is hard to ignore his first-up run when Carbery was unable to find any ga…
  • R8. Kirin Megumi Handicap - Scott Embry Majinika is probably the only galloper I am really keen on all day and having said that I will be saving on Chasing Chaos who I think is a big danger. Form around Majinika has produced recent winners includ…
  • R7. Young Membership Handicap - Scott Embry This is without a doubt the hardest Saturday card we have been faced with at Belmont Park this season and race 7 is no exception. You could easily make a genuine case for almost every runner in the fiel…
  • R6. The Tabtouch Masters Nov 19 Nov 26 & Dec 3 Hcp - Scott Embry Looking to play three different horses in the second leg of the quaddie, a capacity line up of Saturday grinders. There are definitely no world beaters in this race and I have s…
  • R5. Carnivale At Crown Handicap - Scott Embry While Rebel King may have lost his Crown as the Monarch of the Universal Ruler empire to stablemate Military Reign he showed last start that he can still match it with the best WA has to offer. Must l…
  • R4. 2016 Ascot Racing Carnival Oct 15 - Dec 31 Hcp - Scott Embry Putting former Eastern States sprinter Stravigo on top in a very evenly graded 1000m dash for cash. Draws barrier 1 and Glenn Smith can elect either to lead or box seat. If he can r…
  • R3. Perth Racing Instagram Plate - Scott Embry There is a fair bit of depth to this 1400m 3 year old event and in the end, whilst hardly impressed or excited by the price, I have settled on One Short. Two starts this preparation have returned pla…
  • R2. Tabtouch Plate - Scott Embry Would love to see 5 scratchings and have a 1v1 match race between Dainty Tess and Sweet Ora because I do believe these are two of the best 3 year olds going round at the minute and will be the two fighting out the…
  • R8. The Gate Bar & Bistro Leading Rider 2016/17 Hcp - Scott Embry I was all over You're A Rumin' first-up when he was an emphatic winner over Regal Gleam who has since come out and blitzed rivals, including Chocolate Holic and Wednesday's win…
  • R7. Terrace Restaurant - Book Now Handicap - Scott Embry Genuinely thought Blackwood was struggling at the 800m mark in her first-up assignment over 1300m behind Uptown Funk but then past the post she was motoring suggesting that a step up straig…
  • R6. Belmont Newmarket - Scott Embry Even though First Among Equals must conceed 1.5kg to Rock Magic, a not insignificant weight swing, it is very hard to see how they will hold him out. Drew barrier 12 of 12 for his first-up assignement and sat 3…
  • R5. Ian & Colleen Leggoe 50th Anniversary Handicap - Scott Embry I think we can narrow down the first leg of the quaddie to just 3 horses, namely Material Man, Ready to Fire and Don'tgetcaught. Material Man steps up to 2200m for the first tim…
  • R4. Belmont Bonanza - $20 Offer Handicap - Scott Embry Thinking third-up this preparation Justin Warwick's tiny little pocket rocket mare Hot Goods can lead from start to finish. There does not look to be an abundance of speed in the race with on…
  • R3. Inglis Leading Trainer 2016/17 Handicap - Scott Embry There were people climbing out of trees in the Amazon and swimming all the way to Perth to back Conseated last start with the Passenger mare being smashed in betting from a $3.70 opening q…
  • R2. Belmont Park - $5 Early Bird Admission Plate - Scott Embry Not a lot between a large number of these gallopers in a race I am not overly interested in playing from a punting perspective. The Celt was enormous last start over 1000m where tramp…
  • R8. Amelia Park Handicap - Scott Embry Present Arms run two starts back behind My Magic Miss when finding traffic throughout was enormous, and then was well commissioned in the rain when failing to finish off as anticipated on the Heavy8 track be…
  • R7. Schweppes Handicap - Scott Embry This will be an intriguing tactical affair with speed demons Recoiled, Stravigo, Audience, Buster's Secret and Three Votes all capable of really turning it on early. Buster's Secret missed the kick last start …
  • R6. Paddy & Flo Rock Diamond Anniversary Handicap - Scott Embry The last three races on the program are incredibly evenly graded and difficult form assignments. After much head scratching I settled on Lenience in race 6 because I think the Da…
  • R5. Bernard Couch Memorial Handicap - Scott Embry This looks a match race between likely leader Meteoroid and exciting Blackfriars gelding Chocolate Holic. I was firmly in the corner of Chocolate Holic with blinkers and Pike going on, however, wi…
  • R4. Jockey Celebration Day Handicap - Scott Embry I'm using the Simon Miller formula here: Blinkers on = Get on. We saw that on Wednesday with Coleta first-up, the blinkers went on and she looked like an entirely different horse. Meteoroid who go…
  • R3. James Boag\'s Premium Plate - Scott Embry Gangbuster was an impressive last to first winner first-up and then found wanting late over the 1400m when unable to reel in Fred Kersley debutant Chill the Champers. Dropping back to 1300m looks idea…
  • R2. Our Town Handicap - Scott Embry Flying Roar can easily jump to the front here, lead, dictate and kick away with only 52kg on his back. Was three wide for a good portion of the early running last start when ultimately going down to Stocks by a…
  • R8. Gold Membership 2016/17 Handicap - Chris Nelson Baraki Beats is a frustrating horse and not a betting proposition for mine, over-races, pulls, hangs out rounding the home corner, misses the jump, the half brother to Baraki is just a head-case…
  • R7. H.g. Bolton Sprint - Chris Nelson As a Hale oldboy it certainly pains me to side with the Aquinas crowd however, I am more than happy to jump onto the Red Ora Bandwagon and head the redbacks roar as he powers to another impressive first-up Li…
  • R6. James Boag\'s Premium Sprint - Chris Nelson I can easily make a case for both kinds of punters here. If you're anything like my mate Sticks McCormack, the son of a bookie and an absolute favourite frothing flog (said with love) then you shoul…
  • R5. Jockey Celebration Day-aug 6 Handicap - Chris Nelson With popular commodities Uptown Funk, Glitterbell, War Jeune and Ellora May all drawn in the Swan River it makes this 3 year old 1300m even very interesting. I am expecting second emergency…
  • R4. Emirates Melbourne Cup Tour Dinner-aug 9 Handica - Chris Nelson Quite ironic that his name is Don'tgetcaught because he is certainly a galloper I find very hard to catch. There was a strong tip around for him last start with W.Pike in the sad…
  • R3. Young Membership 2016/17 Handicap - Chris Nelson Tranquilla Sunrise will be looking to run and stun here with Randy Tan likely to fire the rising 7 year old out of the gates with the handle bars down and say 'catch me if you can'. He was able…
  • R2. Corporate Membership 2016/17 Handicap - Chris Nelson Just have the feeling that after failing to finish off her races when trying to settle mid-field that team McAuliffe will release the brakes on Furious Dame from barrier 4 and let her roll.…
