Couldn't even tempt me

Selections

Even if I had a free bet to throw at this race I wouldn't have any idea at all where to look. Definitely of the opinion that Dainty Tess is way unders at $2.50 drawn the inside in a 2 year olds race after only narrowly beating Kimbo's Girl who flopped badly the following week. Throwing up Pick Up Line as a value selection. I quite liked his first-up run when he sat outside the lead on a day which heavily favoured run-on type horses. Thought he battled on really well in the conditions and has the necessary gate speed to zip across and potentially sit outside the lead again. Wouldn't be tempted to back him at anything under 40s but you may well get that price by the jump. Belter has trialled well and should get a lovely run from barrier 4. Block and Tackle caught the eye with his trial effort, probably needs further than 1000m to show his best. Not a race I'll get involved in at all, except maybe laying Dainty Tess on betfair.

Suggested Bet

Agree with you assessment of Pike's ride on Star Exhibit. Started to make an earlier run but changed his mind. Then got caught napping and was left flat footed. I think our jockeys forget that they are riding horses and not cars. Can't just hit accelerator whe...

Nice preview, the tips are from Wednesday though :)Race 4 Star Exhibit -  is the Perth bet of the day in my opinion. Has come back fantastically well this prep and the step to 1800m is ideal and logical. $2.70. Race 6 Showy Chloe – Back to 1400m for ...

And full credit to CJP for doing so. Think he rode all his mounts as positive as possible today and he has reaped the reward for doing so.

In hindsight I'm sure Parnham wished he had gone forward as he jumped on terms with Star Bay who ended up outside the leader and held second. All ancient history now though. CJP took the bull by the horns and got the chocolates

Disagree. Think Parnham would have been much better off going forward than restraining it early.Don't mean to have a got at him in particular and of course he was probably riding to instruction, but to me jockeys in general do that far to often when the option...

Taking nothing away from the winner as the other jocks let CJP get away with it but race 7 was like watching trackwork. Painful if you were on Ripper Rio Had every chance. Got a nice trail into it. Coming off a maiden win, bearing a mate of mine 's horse...
