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!

With the end of the financial year at hand, the Gelding is looking to end it on a winning note.  This may be difficult as the weather is threatening with the cold and wet not helping predictions.

A big thanks to the Sydney Colt for his vote of confidence during the week.

Flemington

Race 4 Horse 1 – Broken (for the ladies at the Tennis club)

Race 6 Horse 15 – Doubtful Jack (also for the ladies at the Tennis club)

Race 7 Horse 10 – Sea Syke

Race 8 Horse 1 – Offenders

Good luck and good punting!

Gelding – The King Of The Tipsters

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.

Gelding's tips for 5 June 2010

This free and easy life between jobs has given the Gelding far more time than usual to look through the fields.  That good a life is it, that the role of ‘professional punter’ could be in the winds.  The bets are far and wide both in and out of Australia with some feature races at Epsom (UK) and Belmont (USA).

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

Flemington tomorrow:

Race 1 Horse 1 – Liveandletdie

Race 2 Horse 7 – Belgietto

Race 3 Horse 4 – Sunday Rose (for the girls at the Tennis club)

Race 4 Horse 5 – Oak Heart

Race 5 Horse 10 – Elusive Touch (also for the girls at the Tennis club) 

Some other big Races on the weekend and the tips are:

Queensland Oaks  Race 7 Horse 3 – Dariana

English Derby –  Jan Vermeer (sounds like a person we used to know) for Aidan O’Brien and Johnny Murtagh. 

Belmont Stakes – Ice Box

Good luck & good punting,

The Gelding
