Time to seriously lower the bar for The Cleaner or change jockeys. Arnold hasn't been very impressive on the horse lately

Not too sure Arnold is the problem. for me he's a really underrated jock. The horse just isn't showing the arrogance in running that he showed in the JRA or Dato Tan, if you lead like he does and their not off the bit on the corner he's beat. Just like the railway Fuschia Bandana was able to sit behind and run past him before the corner.

Agree, he still battles away well but he just can't accelerate away from them 800-600 out like he was last prep despite the urging from Arnold.

Lovely - be watching that last 100m a few times tonight :D

Yea, i was watching that and 200 out i thought 'i can't miss the tri here!!' Telling The Peak to get past SD for extra value!!

Im outta here tonight, iluvparis, cocaine and hookers style, not working until Tuesday night, party on peeps!!
 
bit disappointed i missed the late support for Refer, quite liked her win earlier in the prep.

only bet for Ascot today is up in the next Friarday. Stepped up rapidly last start to run home with huge sectionals to stakes class horse. the favourite here is nothing like that, in fact its from the same stable and they kept it running in 60+ races not HCP. actually have it at as a 2U bet which is uncommon for $10 chance.

so the trainer had two horses, Friarday and the winner, yet Friarday shortens up and the winner drifts. 1st, 2nd, 3rd in running run 1,2,3 and the leader is normally ridden cold, no announcements made. Staying contests over here in the west are a joke.

Was thinking that myself. For every positive there is a negative.

Track drying out a bit for World Ace is a positive, so is the extra time for RD. . :thumbsu:

Was on Sweet Idea at $7.5, now $5. :thumbsdown:

Sweet idea is suspect on wet tracks - In saying that I was told by good sources that Sweet idea was too fat to win The Galaxy.

Hope this rain disappears from the West before it reaches Randwick. You'd think it's almost worth running the big races at the start of the day just to get them over and done with just in case they get washed out again. It wouldn't be great for the day, it wouldn't be great for the fans, and it would be rubbish for turnover, but at least they'd get them run.

Channel 7 will be showing the races today, surely?

Can anyone confirm this? Can't find anywhere that says they are.

The Doncaster today is as hard a race to pick as I can remember. There's about a dozen that can win and it wouldn't surprise.

Does anyone else think the Japanese horses are way too big?

Specifically Real Impact. Winning here well first up as an international normally means there are a few more wins not far away. Yes the weather is a worry but 17/1? It'll lead and with the heavy track it's going to be hard to run for anything to make ground from the back.

It's wet track form is finishing midfield in Japanese group one's. Which of the other horses in this field would do better at that level?

If it was dry I'd be smashing the 7's that were initally quoted.

Will be on it, and a cheeky quinella with World Ace.

Rail true at Randwick on a HVY generally means its nearly impossible to lead a win, this is exactly why his price has got to where it is.

If the track wasin the Dead range and was playing evenly he would have been extremely hard to beat, if the track plays as I suspect it will then I don't think he can win.

Kermadec and Royal Descent are my bets in the race.

Haven't seen anything about it either, just assuming/hoping. Not sure what was telecast on Saturday as I wasn't around, but figured they would delay the broadcast along with everything else.

Navish Ramdani (aka track manager) just said the best we can hope for today will be a heavy 8.

Fair enough, thanks for the response. I'm Melbourne based and do well on our races, but tend to give it back on the Sydney ones.
