I think Railings might be hard to beat here.
His run in that 1800m race on Cup Day was huge and gave all signs that he still wants to be a race horse. The only worry for me is Childs riding (I sacked him a long time ago). Keep the Dream Alive was good in the QE Stakes and should have finished closer to the winner if not for a bit of luck.
I'll know more when I do my ratings but I think we have a very good race on here.

Im heading down the highway on wednesday and havent studyed the form yet.

Any tips or good things running on wednesday?

 

[the_fresh]

I've just started my video form and in race 2 Sherpa looks very hard to beat.

5 seconds from 9 starts, I think it found the 1000 a little too much last 2 starts.
Was beaten in the last 100m by the very good Bubble Below who went to town and was VERY GOOD!! in the Lexus fillies race (get a copy of that race cause thats a blackbooker if I've ever seen one). Last start kicked clear at the turn only to get tired over the last 50.
I think the drop back to 1000 and good barrier draw it'll be very hard to beat.

 

[go fullta]

the fresh" be very careful of race 2!!

theres a horse that goes by the name of "liberty lazer". i could be wrong, but i reckon this is one out of the box!! i seen it trial at terang and it was super impressive!!!

will jump straight to the front, and im confident it will win!! will be interested to see what odds it starts...because im going to be on!! hopefully be blackbooking it after the race...

watch this space

 

[TheTrav]

Not the only one who has sacked Childs a long time ago.

I am heading down myself with a few mates should be a great day. I haven't looked at the form yet, is there any chance of getting my hands on a form guide today?
I usually just get the HUN form but i won't come out till tomorrow.
Is 'best bets' or whatever they call it available at the newsagency today?

Cheers

 

[Sport Of Kings]

they have the form in the courier (local) today but its nothing really to go by!
forcast apparently to be raining on and off but its been fine here the last few days.
some good horses in the cup though. banana man trying to do the bendigo ballarat cup double, and a suprise with jumps racer some are bent running.

Race 3- Essemgee

$11.80 , got the tri as well which has set my day up.

 

[the_fresh]

I gave up after race 2

Layed 3 horses in the first race, guess which 3 ran the placings

Then layed Snowflower at $2.35 ($20) then backed it at $3.50 ($20).
So I pretty much got $1.25 for nothing, but it lost.
I hate heavy tracks, so I've sacked the day, working on some excel templates to add to the site, one so people can simply copy fields from Ozracing, run a macro and it adds each runner to each field, from there you can write in your own comments, add the track name from a drop down list, dist and it'll have track record info.

It'll be pretty each I might even make a quick how to use video (I hate my voice on tape, so might not) guide on what you're doing.

1,4 quinella in the next, will pay bugger all.
