Daniel’s tips for 8 September 2012

With the Gelding enjoying the sun, on the Sportzfanradio budget, in beautiful Hawaii as he prepares to give a motivational speech to the University of Hawaii before their Mountain West Conference College Football game against Lamar, I have taken the reins to prove/show just how easy it is to be an “expert” tipster.

 The action on Saturday heats up at Flemington, a track where a “good fourth” means absolutely nothing, despite what the Gelding might often preach.

Race 1, Number 16 (Each Way): Young Girl

Race 2, Number 7 (Each Way): Awesome Bro

Race 4, Number 4 (Win): Lady Melksham (for the ladies at the Tennis club)
