The Professor’s tips for Flemington races and the gelding’s tips for Eagle Farm races on 6 June 2020

Leave a comment

Last week was one of those days for the Professor and the Gelding. Plenty of near misses and, as the Gelding regularly says, ‘That’s racing’. They are both looking to improve today and have decided to look in different places for their winners. The challenge stands at 0-0-1, last week being so bad they declared it a tie.

The Flemington track is currently rated a Soft 5 with further rain expected. The rail is out 8 metres for the entire circuit. At Eagle Farm the track is rated a Good 4 with the rail out 3 metres for the entire circuit.
