    ^^that would be a 1st for a long time..i assume Alana is on her own so probably winding back a bit.

    Races 6 & 8 are super races. If you don't like the favoured runners there is certainly some value.
    Ay Tee Emm, Abby Lane & My Laina in Race 6.
    Dutch Spy, Why Choose Her & Bel My Pago in Race 8.
    They may all be unplaced but I don't want to leave them out of the quaddie.

    R1- TIME STARTS NOW has hit the line powerfully in two starts this campaign and should be winning one in the near future. Has been sitting last from outside gates but draws soft here to potentially sit midfield in a small field. After two 1200m runs he looks ready to show his best up to 1400. His soft track form doesn’t read well but his worst run was on a good track so the wet shouldn’t worry him here.

    R2- CLAIRVOYANCE produced one of the most impressive performances in WA this year in winning last start. Was a handy win on debut but clearly improved a great deal between runs and scary to think she could possibly improve further. Even if she hasn’t at around $1.40 she still looks a good price because she jumps, musters and cruises at high speed and then can still can kick away in the straight.

    R3- SNOWCHINO looks well placed in a nice second up option after her first up run against open class sprinters. Was a fair effort to keep up with them and finish midfield at 1000 and up to 1400 where she performs so well should be able to improve big time. Strikes a small field without a lot of speed and looks capable of leading at her own pace and she’ll be hard to catch.

    R4- PRINCE TURBO has been building into his prep nicely and this looks a really nice race for him at this stage. His first two runs behind Inspirational Girl were good from the back of the field and his last start run when the shades went back on was good. Sat a bit closer in a fast run race and loomed to win behind Fuhrer. Backs up here, gets to 2000, gets some weight relief, draws to get a soft run, and should be going close in this.

    R5- STRIKE FORCE led at a cracking speed last start and never faded badly which was a big effort. May be able to lead again here in a race that doesn’t contain many speed horses and will just need to relax a little. Has a couple of things in his favour this time with an extra 50m and a significant class drop that should help him to run a big race at odds.

    R6- MY LAINA is a handy horse on her day and this looks a good set up for her. Was a really nice first up run from last on a day where it was hard to make ground and has a very good second up record. Meets a similar field to last start and will appreciate any rain that’s around. From the gate may be able to sit a bit closer and will just need even luck to show her best.

    R7- Best Bet: FREE TRADE stands out as the class runner here and looks ready to go first up. Never left first gear in either of his trials this time without his Raceday blinkers but still expect he’ll be close to 100% fit for this considering he’s only having a couple of runs. Won the Pinjarra and Bunbury sprints effortlessly last prep and had always promised to make the grade. This is a very similar field to the Bolton Sprint and suspect he would’ve taken it right up to Red Can Man in that.

    R8- CLIFFS OF COMFORT is best ridden handlebars down however, that never eventuated first up and he can rebound here. Despite looking very brilliant in his first prep, he had never raced at 1000 and may appreciate getting to 1200 here. Jumps a class but gets weight relief as a result and doesn’t strike a much harder field. Suspect he may try and cross Mia Dolce and if he can run them along will be mighty hard to catch.

    R9- INFLATION was a good run out of his class last start behind a couple of handy types in Serenity Bay and Position Of Power. Led them up on that occasion and never gave it away to finish within a length of the winner and doesn’t have to hold out any Serenity Bays here. Comes back to 60+ grade and only goes up 3kg to do so. Should find himself in the first four in running from barrier three and is getting close to a win.

    Logically a few favourites win and the spruik horse i foresee it in a skinny multi as an approx. 40% price "booster" :D

    Couldn't agree more with Train on Snowchino, is the class runner and whilst the betting drift is a bit disconcerting(would love to know what Dave Harrison's assessment of his pair is)i think she will run a huge race.
    I doubt any other horse in this field can win black type or beat Free Trade she has done both.

    R5 Stormy Ruler can run a race looks a great place bet and top quinella pick with the fav.

    R6 Super Ex won by just enough resuming can only be better 2nd up, spruik apprentice on the rise Madi Derrick will have options to either lead or take a sit if the speed is hot and with a clean run he will finish off resolutely again.I reckon this horse can pick his way through the grades and on 3yo form will get 1200/1300 comfortably.

    R7 Multiverse at over $3 boosted is a good place/quin chance now Floyd is out, i think he nails Essential Spice late and has a far superior 1200m record.

    R8 Also agree re Cliffs of Comfort lead and ROLL is his go!! The 4.20 went pretty quick hope we see the best of him today.
    Jericho Missile looks ready off a cracking 2nd up run and for mine is the main danger..but i expect COC to win.

    Don't mind Danny George EW today @ $15. Should be cherry ripe after 2 runs back and hit the line like he was looking for 1200 last start. Also think he 's better drawn out coming around them.

    Some nice pool manipulation going on for Clairvoyance to pay $1.70 on Ubet.

    R6 - Ay Tee Emm (Each Way)

    Tipped by Terry Leighton and also in Scott Embry's top 4. Agree with all the reason they have put forward. Two big runs last prep 1st and 2nd up and he also loves a soft track.

    R9 - Double The Pro (Each Way - Heavy The Place)

    Forget last start, he was given a hip and shoulder out of the race. Freshened up and loves a soft track, Mitch Pateman off with suspension is no concern when Kyra Yuill is his replacement. Inflation looks hard to beat so I've gone heavier the place.

    Just saw an interview on Racing.Com with our own Willie Pike.
    Most jockeys interviewed are struggling with their masks staying just below the eyes covering their nose.
    Pikey had no problems with that.

    Arnie's Boy clearly got 3rd on TV yet declared a dead heat. Photo will make interesting viewing. The white line is clearly in the wrong place so why have it? To pi$$ punters off?

    If Clairvoyance deserves a thread so does SHOWMANSHIP :x that was a booming win under some trying conditions

    Great ride on Saracino. Essential Spice never went a yard. Would’ve struggled to keep up over a 1000 today.

    Saracino looked sensational in his first trial in WA almost 2 years ago.Hard to believe it's taken him this long to win one.

    Burgess Queen won the Belmont Sprint as a 2 yo then won the Prince of Wales, Lee Steere and Scahill as a 3 yo. Very exciting!

    All at WFA. Clairvoyance is carrying a lot more weight than she would have at WFA and her open company rivals are carrying less!

    Apples and oranges when comparing 1000m to 1200m.

    It's a shame the image provided is of such poor quality. I'm sure Arnie's Boy got 3rd and that a much higher definition image would have proved it.
