Gelding’s tips for 19 November 2011

The Gelding’s attention is on Moonee Valley today but a word of caution with the weather. More rain may affect the chances of some of the fancied horses.

As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.

Moonee Valley

Race 2 Horse 3 – Prussian Officer
Race 4 Horse 1 – The Fairy’s Kiss
Race 5 Horse 2 – Cat’s Pyjamas (for the ladies at the Tennis club)
Race 6 Horse 6 – Eraset
Race 8 Horse 3 – Master Harry (also for the ladies at the Tennis club)

You can hear the Gelding discuss racing with the Professor every Sunday on Sportzfan Radio at 12.30pm on 88.3 Southern FM.  The Gelding’s segment is sponsored by the Great Western Hotel.

Good luck and good punting!

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Warwick Farm Tomorrow 19 November 2011

I have been enjoying the Saturday morning trackwork where an ear to the ground can prove the difference between a winning and losing day.  Have been hearing the right people giving a huge rap to one of Gai’s 2 year olds. Will be making it a standout and our sole selection at the Farm tomorrow.

Race 1 n6 NO LOOKING BACK A lot of talk at the track about this neddy trained by Gai. There is only one thing to do and that is to load up and shove.

I’m heading to Melb on Sunday for a week and hope to catch up with the Professor during the coming week.

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

The Gelding’s tips for 12 November 2011

The Gelding’s attention turns to Sandown today and its Hillside track. With the weather improving, it promises to be a great Zipping Classic day.

As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.

Sandown

Race 2 Horse 3 – Miss Stellabelle
Race 5 Horse 9 – Under the Eiffel
Race 6 Horse 1 – Americain (for the ladies at the Tennis club)

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill Tomorrow 12 November 2011

Last week I mentioned I was heading to early morning trackwork. Well, in advance of tomorrow I picked up mail for 2 of Gai’s and I will be on both “best of the best” with the corporate bookies. For those who have been asleep at the wheel, “best of the best” offers you the best dividend out of the 3 state TABs or the best fluc at the track. All you need do is put your money on up to 40 mins before the race. Both Luxbet and Centrebet offer “best of the best”. Anyway, I’ll be back at trackwork in the morning. Get on Gai’s pair tomorrow.

Race 1 n7 KUCHINSKAYA

Race 6 n7 EMBARASSED

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

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Randwick Tomorrow 5 Nov 2011

Off to early morning trackwork tomorrow so getting some early mail posted for my groupies and fellow punt drunks.

Randwick

Race 2 n5 SHADOW LINE e/w Well in on ratings and not a hard race. Nice each way bet to get us going.

Race 3 n5 DRIEFONTEIN The pros tell me that going on trial form this is easy money. Jump on!

Race 7 n8 YURRAPENDI e/w Cummings horse with potential. I jumped on at $21 e/w. Will have a saver tomorrow on BOUND TO BLUSH who has been very impressive.  

Race 8 n3 ROSIE’S REWARD (will have 70% of my stake on this neddy) and n11 TONK (will have 30% of my stake on this one). Between them they should control the tempo up front.

Flemington

I am told by a ratings nut that I must back two horses in Race 4 who equally have a break on this field and they are both $6.0+. So, I’ll be splitting my bet 50/50 on n1 AMAH ROCK and n2 MAHISARA

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

Gelding’s tips for Cup Day 1 November 2011

The Gelding’s attention is on Flemington for the Melbourne Cup meeting. It’s the race that stops Australia. There is some real value in today’s tips. If three winners can get up from these selections it will be a reasonable day at the track!

As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.

Flemington

Race 4 Horse 14 – Neriani
Race 5 Horse 2 – Karuta Queen (for the ladies from the Tennis club)
Race 7 Horse 1 – Americain (also for the ladies from the Tennis club)

In the Cup for quinella/trifecta followers try numbers 2,3 & 17.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Melbourne Cup Day

Good luck to all the ‘once a year’ punters and those, like myself, who are referred to as ‘punt drunks’. It is not easy making a profit on the cup so I suggest a few dollars on some neddies who have been tipped to me either by a pro punter or our ever reliable ratings man.

Flemington

Race 5 n2 KARUTA QUEEN Very short price but it is hard to see this getting beaten. Ran 2nd to the mighty Black Caviar, then won with a leg in the air at its next outing.

Race 6 n2 COMBAT KITTY Only 3 hopes of winning in this race and our neddy is the best rated.

Race 7 (the cup) 1ST: AMERICAIN  2nd: NIWOT  3RD:   GLASS HARMONIUM 4TH: MOURAYAN 5TH: DUNADEN

Race 9 n11 PARABLES Will finish this off at a 100 miles an hour. Prepared to the minute to win this

Randwick

Race 6 n2 SAN ZAIM (65% of race outlay) and n8 SONG AND ROSES (35% of race outlay) On ratings these 2 combined offer the best value in Sydney all day.

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

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 29 October

Unless you are a punt drunk or a Sydney Colt groupie you shouldn’t bet on Sydney as it is a rough day. Have some mail for a $34 horse today. A lounge chair, TVN’s coverage of Flemington and an online account with a corporate bookie is the go.

Race 7 n4 MERCONMAN e/w ($34w $9p) I have taken the quoted prices with Sportsbet (also available with IAS) this morning. This neddy has trialled well and worth a few bob e/w. If it flukes the win I will be able to pay off Greece’s national debt

Race 8n8 LIGHTINTHENITE ($4.0) My only query here is that the connections have left Christian Reith on board. His last ride, when the neddy was the subject of a national plunge (and my biggest bet of the year), bordered on criminal. He chased the tearaway leader in sectional times that made it completely impossible for the horse to have any chance. Any repeat will see Christian fed to the lions!!

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

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 22 Oct 2011

A ton of mail around today including a couple at double figure odds.

Race 1 n 3 MISS KEEPSAKE – best of the day but short

Race 3 n1 DAILIKA

Race 4 n10 SAID COM

Race 5 n6 SHADOW MINISTER

Race 7 n7 VINTEGE

M/VALLEY Race 9 n3 MORE STRAWBERRIES – 3 calls for mail today and all 3 wanted to tip me into this one in Melb

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