Golden Slipper Day – 5 Group 1 Races

I’m still waiting for my sling from Rob after he took the $6.5 winner last week. Slipper Day is as good as it ever gets in Sydney. Watch track pattens today.

Race 1 n5 Sweepstaking e/w ($6.5) Gillian Heinrich has the Slipper fav but brought this neddy down for pay the extras. I’m told it has been working very nicely.

Race 2 n9 Sasa ($3.2) Did you see this one win last start? WOW! We have mail from the Tim Martin yard to say it will be winning again. We have NEVER lost on Martin yard mail.

Race 5 n11 Daffodil e/w ($6.5) Has been set specifically for this race and has been working up to this perfect distance.

Race 6 n5 Heart Of Dreams e/w ($6.0) Not a popular neddy with me but I cannot ignore the very strong push from those in the know. Better at this distance than 2000m.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Rosehill 27 March – Value Day

We will leave the odds on favs to Gelding and search out some great e/w value. It worked for us last week and I have some good mail.

Race 1 n4 Silently e/w ($7.0) Gelding has found the hot pot in Griffon (and it will be extremely hard to pass) but our neddy is 3rd up which is it’s best form race and it rates extremely well.

Race 4 n11 Skorost e/w ($16.0) Had 1st start last and beaten a mile but J B Cummings has added blinkers and my mail says it has grown a leg on the track. Huge value!

Race 5 n8 More Strawberries e/w ($4.4) Missed start at 1st race and should have won. Blinkers added by Gai and I’m told it will be up on the pace.

Race 7 n8 Zabrasive e/w ($6.5) We cannot knock Gelding’s pick Shoot Out who will be fav but ours is DEFINITELY the best stayer in the race and is sensational value e/w.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Rosehill 20 March – Each Way Day

No favourites for us today as we will be taking the value and betting each way all day. Three meetings without Gelding’s tips – come back Gelding, all is forgiven.

Race 3 n3 Psychologist e/w Have tipped Solar Charged every start but allowing it’s gate, trouble at the track and the impressive Melb build up of Psychologist I think we have found great e/w value.

Race 5 n2 Black Piranha e/w Again, we always tip Hot Danish 1st up but pro punters says the trial form of Black Piranha cannot be ignored and it is a better WFA horse.

Race 8 n1 Tickets e/w This neddy has a ton over the fav Al Dhafra on ratings and that alone suggests we jump in. Aparently Tickets is trialling tip top also.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Randwick – Tomorrow Sat 13 March

Hope you stayed solid with a reward of 2 winners last week. I’m out and about tomorrow so I have made a stack of calls for all the early Friday mail.

Race 2 n1 Beneteau $1.7 This Melb neddy is better than ours. Great sectionals in Melb.

Race 5 n2 Ambers Waltz e/w at $4.8 I’m told is working a treat! This is one of the best from Syd and will hopefully finish too strong for the Melb fav Crystal Lily who will lead without too much trouble. Watch for track bias in earlier races!!

Melb Race 4 n2 Inkster e/w $5.0 Cannot ignore the very strong lead of a ratings expert who has declared this neddy as an e/w bet to nothing. Being set for the Sydney Cup and this is a very nice lead up. Finished very strongly over shorter trip last time out.

Warwick Farm – Mar 6 – Heavy Track – BEWARE!

A good day for ducks at Warwick Farm. Only punt drunks will plonk heavilly today.

Race 1 n2 Strike One Only has to handle the conditions to beat this ordinary lot.

Race 4 n8 Solar Charged This would have been the bet of 2010 however the conditions pose a question. Pro punters are staying solid on this one which has always been the early Slipper fav. Who am I to disagree.

Race 5 n9 Sacred Choice e/w Have just taken the $12 on offer at Betchoice having missed the early $26 at IAS. This neddy will improve heaps on it’s last start and will eat up the mud.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Rosehill 27 February – Im back baby!

I have enjoyed my time in the spelling paddock but now it’s down to the business of making money on Saturdays. As always I’ve rung around pro punters, ratings expert and a prominent trackman.

Race 2 n6 De Lightning Ridge Wow, did you see this win it’s last start? The right people have backed this already and they’re not finished putting the money on.

Race 4 n1 Chekvetadze On ratings this Queenslander is very well placed. It will not get a better chance to win a race in Sydney.

Race 5 n4 Chance Bye Quite simply if this neddy repeats the sectional times it ran at it’s last start win it will be impossible for them to catch up.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Randwick Jan 30. Gai's back but where's Gelding?

We got the bookies cash last week with our only selection backed off the map. Even Rob managed to cash up. I will be missing at a beachside resort for the next few weeks and won’t be posting. Back in March with the good oil from people who gamble for a living.

Race 1 n3 Needs Further Trained by Gai the only doubt is the 1200m first up. It meets an ordinary bunch and improved it’s own weight at it’s 2nd trial. Very short odds however.

Race 2 n6 Hidden Wonder This neddy keeps winning and I’m told has come back from the Gold Coast looking very smart and ready to fire.

Race 6 n2 Gigas Like Hidden Wonder this one trained by Gai keeps winning. Bookies took a risk early and posted $3.8. Now into $3.4 and still great value. On pace runner.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Rosehill January 23 – Where is Gai?

Gai has no starters today. I’ll bet that is the first Sat meeting in the last 10 years. There is a complete lack of mail today. I won’t pick just for the sake of it and hence only 1 runner today. It’s an absolute scorcher in Sydney so be careful not to fall into short priced favs.

Race 4 n6 Al Dhafra Won 2/2 at Provincial. The important aspect is my man says the sectionals were extremely impressive. This is a neddy who will win better races than this, so I’ll be on. Hate tipping against the Snowden 2 but it means we will get value from the bookies. I have already had some on at $3.8 and will top up my bet at best fluc.
