Gelding's tips for 17 July 2010

Leave a comment

This week, the Gelding’s attention returns to his headquarters track at Caulfield.  Hopefully the rain will hold off so that the track can dry out a bit.

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

Race 3 Horse 3 – Meet me at Raffles

Race 5 Horse 1 – Beyond Pardon (for the ladies at the Tennis club)

Race 6 Horse 11 – Reward for Effort (also for the Ladies at the Tennis club)

Race 7 Horse 3 – Arch Symbol

Unfortunately Queen Asa didn’t run a drum last Sunday at Cranbourne but stay tuned as it is being primed for its next run!!  As for Cranbourne you might like to try Dalligan’s tip of Race 3 Horse 3 – Dreams to Silk, a Mick Price trained gelding.

You can hear me on Sportzfan Radio at 12.30pm each Sunday talking with the Professor about all things racing.

Good luck and good punting,

The Gelding

This week the Gelding’s attention turns to Flemington.  He sees some value there.

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

Race 3 Horse 8 Miss Lily Rose
Race 4 Horse 1 Oak Heart
Race 6 Horse 5 Doubtful Jack (for the girls at the Tennis club) quinella with Ghostmilk
Race 8 Horse 2 Winged Charm (also for the girls at the Tennis club)

Don’t forget that the Gelding’s horse Queen Asa is most probably running on Sunday at Bendigo.  Listen to Sportzfan Radio on Sunday at 12.30pm for confirmation.

Good luck and good punting,

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!4 July 2010 161.1 – Daniel wonders whether Gambo feels unsettled having been moved from panel operator after the Professor’s return from Sydney.  Daniel also ponders the NBA feeding frenzy with free agents being signed for ridiculous figures including draft bust Darko Milicic getting a $20 million contract when everyone thought he should retire.  The Panel considers throwing themselves into the free agency market for a fat contract.  Gambo talks about the ‘mono cock’ in formula one racing.  Dan Butterly talks basketball with the Knicks potentially going after Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson and Tony Parker.  He says the Knicks fan base want LeBron, Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade and won’t be satisfied with anything less.  The Gelding talks racing and takes the credit as he and the Sydney Colt combined for 4 winners and 4 placings from 8 selections.  Daniel and the Professor discuss the Boomers v ‘Argentina”.  Daniel nodded off during the game and wonders whether Brett Brown’s team got anything out of playing a non-representative team of rookies.  The Professor raises his idea of an NBL draft again as a means of getting publicity for the League.

Gelding's tips for 3 July 2010

Leave a comment

Well, the Gelding had quite a good ‘financial year’ on the punt and is looking to start the new financial year at a sprint.  His attention is drawn to Moonee Valley tommorrow but a word of caution to keep an eye on the weather as rain may be a factor overnight!

The Gelding is sticking with horses he has backed before and all are last start winners so that is good form. 

The bets as always are on an each way and all up basis.

Race 3  Horse 1 – Sunday Rose (for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 4 Horse 3 – Das Machen
Race 6 Horse 3 – Oak Heart
Race 7 Horse 2 – Ghostmilk (also for the girls at the Tennis club)
PS – Update on Sportzfan Radio’s own Queen Asa – her next start will be at Kimore next Tuesday in a Maiden over 1450 metres (if not balloted out).  A better performance is expected however we are looking to get the horse up to 1600 to 2000 in the third or fourth start this campaign.  It is then that it will be expected to be winning.

Good luck and good punting!

Gelding – The King Of The Tipsters

Leave a comment

Going back a couple of years, I was asked by the Professor if I would be interested in providing race selections for Sydney racing. It seemed my reputation as a punt drunk was known by more than my wife and a few mates. The Professor thought it would be good to have an addition to the tipster ranks (note I didn’t use the word rivalry). I accepted the offer but on 1 proviso, the tips I would be giving are a compilation of mail I gather from those who either punt for a living or sell information/ratings/track work etc for a living. You see, the truth of the matter is, even in a life and death situation, I am incapable of backing a winner of my own picking. Like those who ring me on a Saturday or those who may glance at the Sydney Colt’s posts on this site, I punt on the information and expertise of others.

Soccer ball21 June 2010 159.1 – Stan, the world’s oldest radio apprentice gives the AFL a rest in his rant this week and has the FFA fair and square in his sights at the thought of paying our next soccer coach up to $6 million.  Dan Butterly talks US sport particularly the musical chairs of NCAA conference realignment, NBA Championship game 7 and whether Kobe Bryant would have been the MVP of the finals series even if the Celtics had won, whether Tiger Woods can win the US Open from 4 shots back and his thought that the World Cup will end in a draw.  The Gelding calls in from the track at Bendigo where he has a runner, Queen Asa, going around.  He had a great day at the races on Saturday tipping 3 winners and a second.  In the ‘F’ word Mark Fiorenti muses on the problems of parking the “bus” with flat tyres and Sean informs listeners that parking the ‘bus’ is a real soccer tactic.
