Saxon mare Bonny Zara couldn't have been more impressive when winning by over 5 lengths in midweek grade over 1700m at Belmont Park before looking the winner at the top of the straight when tackling 2000m for the first time and ended up just grinding to the line, unable to reel in Andi's Boy. Should take a lot of improvement out of that run and does look one of the better bets on the card. Drawn perfectly for Knuckey if he can get her rolling before the home turn then she should be too strong. Raising Dubai was beaten almost 6 lengths by Bonny Zara two starts ago but was a heavily backed favourite that day and has since recorded a victory in the Toodyay Cup. Peter Hall sticks in the saddle and I think he is the testing material here. If you prefer to back against favourites then the 10s on offer appeal to me quite a lot. Expecting market support for him so I'd probably suggest early fixed betting if that's the way you go. Ningaloo Blitz is a classy staying mare, Jerry Noske will look to put her in the race with around 1000m to go and ensure it is run as a true staying test.

The Belgravia on Saturday should be an absolute cracker of a race really looking forward to it

Tend to agree 1st few weeks in new tracks can be a shocker, having said that Belmont  was about as bad as one could recall for an entire season except for just 1 or 2 meetings that were an exception.Hope I get a chance to punt in the club but would l...

Both are tracks that are dangerous to bet early on. You can get a track bias by race 2 of the day and it can bring a lot of the questionable ones into calculations. Now we go to Ascot and have to marry form from Belmont performers to Ascot performers coming b...

Turned out to be a tough day for early tipping. Few you could have backed on the day following the money. Most frustrating for me was Raising Dubai, I really liked that and got sucked into the fav. Knuckey strikes again. Been keen for Ascot for a fair while no...

@OliversTwist did you finish in front with those bets on Saturday??? I haven't checked for a while, but they used to put your returns up as well. I thought Saturday was a tough card to pick, so I did no form and not surprisingly...lost on the day!!! What was s...

Yes an outstanding effort by sky world, totally unprofessional and then to exacerbate things further by not even apologising for putting on the incorrect replay that was absolutely outstanding. On top of all that bloke in the studio should get a swift kick up ...
