The Gelding’s tips for 27 November 2010

Leave a comment

The Gelding’s attention turns to Sandown this Saturday where the track could well be heavy after the overnight rain.  Sure to be plenty of scratchings so check the form guides carefully for wet weather runners.

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

Sandown

Race 1 horse 10 – Trysta
Race 2 horse 3 – Overtake
Race 6 Horse 6 – Sheedy (for the ladies at the Tennis club)
Race 7 Horse 6 – Tamtiko (also for the ladies at the Tennis club)

You can hear the Gelding discuss the winners and losers at the track every Sunday on Sportzfan Radio at around 12.30pm on 88.3 Southern FM.

Good luck and good punting!

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Kensington 27 November

Leave a comment

I hope you took the suggestion last week and took the good thing of the day as the first leg of all up bets with our other 2 tips. If so, you would have been like me and had a fill up. Some good mail about for Saturday’s races at the Kensington track.

Race 2 n3 LADY’S ANGEL This neddy did the the right thing by us last week as the 2nd leg of an all up. Looks better than these.

Race 4 n7 SIENNA RED I have been told to completely ignore the last start failure and join a couple of shrued pro punters who have already bet into this one. Has trialled great.

Race 8 n7 KISS ‘N CHASE e/w 2nd up and I’m told it has improved heaps on the track. Nash will steer this one into the placings somewhere.

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

Sydnet Colt’s Mail For 20 November 2010

Leave a comment

Having a really big tip for a neddy in Melb today. Mail is a bit light again for Sydney where 2 very short priced 2yo dominate the early races.

SYD

Race 2 n3 FOXWEDGE This will win if trial form and trackwork mean anything for early season 2yo races. Make this a banker for an all up with the next 2 mail horses.

Race 7 n5 LADYS ANGEL Impressed some keen judges after leading and winning last start.

MELB

Race 8 n4 VERY DISCREET I am told this neddy has a ton on this field based on ratings. IAS went up at $7.0 and the best on offer this morning is $3.9o. Some smart people have jumped on. What will you do?

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

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!14 November 2010 179.1 – The Professor starts by asking Daniel whether there should be a “mercy rule’ in basketball like there is in baseball, which then starts a discussion on the Melbourne Aces and whether their double header games are only 7 innings in length. The Gambler gives an update on Danish Rock who has been put out in the paddock for a six week spell. Stan has more basketball questions for Daniel about the Melbourne Tigers including whether an import (or two) will be sacked. Daniel says if the Tigers are 0-6 after the next two games they will both be sacked. Daniel doesn’t think Al Westover will be sacked though. The Gambler complains about the traffic created by the Australian Masters golf. Mordiboy sends a text predicting Tiger Woods not being able to win the tournament and thinks Daniel Gaunt will win by a shot. The Gelding discusses yesterday’s racing at Sandown and Rosehill. He says with the track being a ‘heavy 9’, runners needed some wet weather form to be in with a show. He says that like Danish Rock, Queen Asa is also going out for a spell.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 13 November 2010

Leave a comment

I’m suggesting my groupies and regular punt drunk readers of this post join me as we place all our eggs in one basket. Yes, the mail is light but very hot for just one runner tomorrow at Rosehill.

Race 3 n6 SIENNA RED (currently $3.3 with Betchoice). This neddy trained by Jo Pride has had 1 race start for 1 win. With Corey Brown up it should go 2 from 2. I’m told it is fit and ready for a 1st up win. Our only bet.

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

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!7 November 2010 178.1 – Stan doesn’t take long to take Daniel to task about the performance on the Melbourne Tigers and queries whether the Tigers, Tiger Woods or the Australian cricket team will be the next to win. Daniel hints that one of the Tigers imports could be cut very soon. Stan wonders whether the Tigers should bring back Lindsay Gaze. One of our twitterers says bring back Andrew Gaze or the Tigers will remain a mess. Dan Butterly talks US sport including NFL with the Randy Moss/Minnesota Vikings/Brad Childress/Brett Favre debacle and the will she or won’t she tell the NFL. He also discusses the quarter back ‘controversy’ at the Washington Redskins with Mike Shanahan benching Donovan McNabb at the end of a game. MLB is wrapped up with the San Francisco Giants overcoming the Texas Rangers in five games. In College football, the Air Force Academy defeats Army to take the Commander in Chief’s trophy. The Panel talks with the Gelding and JC about JC’s horse ‘It’ll Be Fantastic’ then goes on to discuss the Emirates Stakes day and the winners and losers at the track.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For 30 October

1 Comment

Today we have a real GOOD THING at Flemington to bet on. This is such a certainty I’m not going to muddy the waters with other lesser mail. Hope you joined me for a fill up last week. Our only losing race was owing to the neddy having a bleeding attack and now banned from racing in Aus.

Flemington R1 n1 SKILLED I am told by the pros this neddy could not possibly have won last start when it competed in a speed dual. Hence, a jockey change today is a ++. With an uninterrupted preparation SKILLED would have been one of the favs for the Caulfield Guineas and is a ratings certainty here. On Thursday and Friday I placed 4 individual bets for a pro punter at $3.2, $3.1, $3.0 and $2.9. It is now shorter than that. WILL WIN!!!

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

Sydney Colt's Mail For Rosehill & MV 23 Oct

Leave a comment

If you don’t punt today you don’t know how to enjoy yourself. I think we can be devouring lobster for dinner tonight with a couple of winners as told to me by 2 pro punters and a ratings expert.

ROSEHIL

Race 1 n2 KARUTA QUEEN Won its only start and had plenty of improvement left. Start the day with a winner!

Race 5 n2 KANZAN e/w Is one of the better rated horses at Rosehill today and is great e/w value.

Race 6 n2 ROTHESAY No surprise here as every man and his dog is tipping this neddy. This galloper has a ton of class on this ordinary field.

MOONEE VALLEY

Race 6 n7 REKINDLED INTEREST Those who know racing far better than me say, its great run in the Caulfield Guineas is superior form for this lot.

Race 7 n2 PRECEDENCE Some astute pro punters have jumped in early to back this neddy. I’m following their lead.

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