On a quick personal note, I just wanted to thank everybody who contacted my old man or myself after last weekend’s quite incredible Karrakatta win. In particular I’d like to thank Mario...

Ascot Preview, 6th April
The rail remains at the 3m position after we saw a rail/on pace dominated day at the same spot only seven days ago. It’s hard to imagine the pattern will change a great deal and as I have all...

Race 1 - Maiden Madness A nurofen start to the day, with an absolute nightmare of a maiden to dissect. The only positive being it is an extremely competitive betting medium. There should be...

Ascot Preview, 23rd March
The rail pops back into the true position for an action packed Ascot card with three competitive listed races. The track has pretty consistently been dominated by on pace/rail runners when the rail...

Ascot Preview, 16th March
We saw a very leader and Mitch Pateman bias Ascot a week ago, with the weather conditions likely playing a part in that. I often find when a track gets toward the end of the season that they tend t...

Ascot Preview, 9th March
A precursor to this preview, that I cannot remember a city Saturday meet that I’ve been less enthusiastic about as a betting proposition. The entire card has a lot of unquantifiable variables...

Race 1 - King Of The Castle After a couple of quiet weeks in tipping land, I can smell something special brewing. If not, there is a big chance I’ll drop myself to the magoo’s....

Race 1 - Nick Knight Perfect conditions for racing on Saturday after a sweltering midweek in Perth. 28 degrees and clear skies - absolutely no excuses to not tip the card. A weak looking ma...

or what about moving all metro racing to Broome, Carnarvon and Roebourne? I'm sure all participants would love to get out of the cold.I can see a Marble Bar Belmont Oaks being a huge day.

Why don't they think outside the box? Add a meeting or two at York, Narrogin or even Toodyay. Take the load off Bunbury, Pinjarra and Northam so they can stand in for Belmont. Pinjarra Thursday has 4x maidens, 2x C1s, a 54+ and a C5. No reason a meeting l...

Drive for show, putt for dough they say. JJ did both. In spades. A very worthy winner in the toughest battle of attrition I think I have seen. It was all going so well for Burns. He birdies 10 after the rain break and was at -2, 2 shots clear of Adam Sc...

The $25 -$30 million spent to provide "all year round racing on an all weather track" may be seriously tested with the probability of 40mm over the next two days.4 mm seems to knock Belmont out these days, so nothing ventured, just 25 million lost.Pinjarra Sat...

Going to be enteresting this week with the rain they say that's coming from tomorrow night,Bunbury Wed. Also Pinjarra on Saturday depending on the amount of rain and exactly when we get it ? If they get 50mm at Pinny and then it rains on the day (as forecas...

More than happy to keep the % the same, but the prize money increase over the last few years should cover the increase in cost that's all dependent if the horses are earning tho if there not earning then the prize money increase isn't really covering the i...

Realistically it looks like Belmont will have a handful of meetings before we're back at Ascot. There's so little chance that the work being undertaken will result in a fix in the time frame they're predicting. The concern in the short term is- how will the s...

Longest putt JJ Spaun had holed this year was 35'. On the back 9 today he sank a 40 footer and the longest putt by anyone this week, a whopping 64 footer to win it on 18.
