A very good meeting put together here, I like a couple.
R4: No12 Eloquent Mach the place. Under rated this bloke. I think he will get a lovely run through, settle midfield and run on very well.
R6 No1 Stroganoff 1 by 3. Not going to have too much on him but from the trip he is going to get he'll be around the place.
R9 No1 Whoswhointhezoo. To me he has been disrespected in the early markets. Liberty Rose is a good mare and will go well of the sit no doubt but they hardly flew home last week and she wasn't exactly charging at them. The zoo can do its own thing and keep going.
R10 No1 Absolution. This is the one, get on this fella. He will lead and just keep running. The fav I feel is being over rated on what it has done so far based on a visually good run 2 starts ago when the times don't really marry up with the look.
Happy punting.

R2 No 11 Dont leave gangbuster out of your first four. Could settle a little closer than last start n with a bit of luck could sneak a place.
R5 No 10 Always Arjay going really well n likely to receive a great run on pace trip. Place!
R6 is a very intriguing with a tonne of speed off front. This might not be his race but debt free charlie is close to a win.
R8 No 10 Its bt win is going better than numerical form suggests. This is not an overly stong SS. Should go close with safe passage.
R10 No 10 Hoiho is drawn to get a great trip and is racing well. Ew
One from melton R8 No 4 River patrol. Only bout $4 but close to win
Good luck!

They don't miss 'em and they never risk 'em unlike the bookmakers of old.
However in race 6 - ive had a small e/w bet on Majestic @ the $61 - i actually watched a replay of its last race - and it was a super run - 2130 m - 3 wide without cover - it was very strong - considering 55.7 last half
The key is K Harper has 2 in - i can see Debt Free Charlie - keeping Wesley honest up front - so the other one gets the pie ride
If that scenario happens ( thats what i mean about betting for luck ) then i reckon Majestic Star has got a great chance

Last week threw in Smoldering Ashes as a bolter to run 3rd or 4th in the first four, was upwards of 50/1 driven a treat followed the pegs, ran a reasonable 5th and had every possible hope.
Saw it running tonight and thought yes perhaps a rough chance from the one.
Starts at $3 :-O how much shorter can they go on gate one horses?!!

Definitely just corps betting back no big deal
What a breath of fresh air that is.......
Drive of the night by Aiden to get that derby winner to score his first free for all win. Hats off all round

Mind you the pools are atrocious - Miss Sangrils race - Quin pool $1400 - where are all the punters

Wesley got it served up in front alright Marko albeit by a different horse, was gone then. Chiaroscuro got caught up behind them, forget he ran.
Mr. Mojito got right out to $5.90 on tote - Wesley a leader drawn near the pegs of course runs odds on.
Once again the fancied runners from gate one not good.
The shortest four in the betting were Patrick The Piranha - first and the other three who were fancied Smoldering Ashes, She Could Be Good and Whiswhointhezoo all unplaced.
Last Monday at Pinjarra said to a guy watch Shannon Suvaljko someway somehow get this battler Tactile Sensation into a place - backs up again last night and at better than $5 a place he does it again.
Punters in tabs/pubtabs are interested in one thing - the next event and wherever that is.
The old Friday nights of just Gloucester Park - Harold Park - Gawler - Country Victoria and Mandurah Greyhounds have now been usurped by 7,386 other races around the world to bet on.
Was told - "that there's a demand for these events''...yes $23 quinella pools on the Norway trots - $18 in exacta pools on the Swindon greyhounds. A $3 carryover on the Lingfield double.
Just $100s in the win pool yes that's a strong demand.
It's punter beware in relation to pool size - but it's unfair when punters are invited to bet into pools of literally $40 or $50 - sometimes far less.

Something is wrong whereby you can't take a quinella or exacta ten times or a double just three or four times because the pools are that small and if you do you're just betting against yourself.
The humble tote needs reinvigorating - very sad and its for various reasons - that they've ( Tabcorp) tote betting slip so badly.
The population of WA and Victoria and the best that can be done is just a lousy 1k in quinellas and exactas - the double pools of just $300 - their should be a Royal Commission into it!

More than likely driving to instructions, Tony don't muck around hahaha
Corps always bet some back so that’ll probably never happen
Seen them from Alford to Zakara - and this bloke whilst not perfect ( who is ? ) measures up to the best I've seen.
It's a rare ability to consistently get horses with average ability and at long prices into the placings, if not sure have a look at his drive on 200/1 chance Cracka Star when third in early November - waste of time putting that horse into novelties, will run last.
Can't be proven but would any other driver have got Tactile Sensation into the placings at around 5/1-6/1 a place on the Monday then the Friday ? Not on your nelly!
The drive on Absolution in the last - none of this - "yep I'm going to try to lead and destroy the favourite in the process - and will also destroy myself but that doesn't matter" talk.
Commonsense on Absolution ( it's not complicated root canal work) gave his horse every possible chance and the rest looked after itself.
These are not champions he's driving - most of them are average battlers. That stable good to see - it remains Australia's best kept secret.
