There should be another top end speed battle with Saxon Saxoff, The Conjurer and Pollonize all free wheeling front running types. This should leave W.Pike with the absolute prime position yet again aboard the undefeated Blackfriars gelding Planets Align. Last start he was given an absolute ripsnorter of a ride by Pike and simply couldn't lose. From that he meets Our Mate Al 1.5kg worse at the weights and I think that the extra furlong will be to the advantage of Our Mate Al who was ripping ground off him late in the race. With all the top end speed I think Our Mate Al from a gun barrier should be able to settle alongside, potentially one set of heels back, from Planets Align and at the eachway quote I'm happy to play with a heavy places bias because anything around even money the drum is theft. Those two clearly in top and probably narrowed down to them in the quaddie leg. Saxon Saxoff is a tough onspeeder who was clearly headed and fought back to beat Silver Minx at Northam. Lomfath was backed as if unbeatable last start at York and duly saluted.

Concern expressed about the firmness of the track on Super Saturday....don't know a whole lot about it but terms like "concrete" used and, it seemed to me, justifiable concern about soreness, jarring up etc. Well both Watermans and Magnificio backed up okay al...

Good work Darkhorse. Refreshing to read a positive comment about Ascot. I haven't been out there for a short while but will get out there in the very near future when time of work presents me with the opportunity.

I should add credit to O'Donnell for a clever ride yesterday.Credit also to H Bomber with those selections. Ripper Red was a very good run.

LW is a great "sit and steer" hoop. IMHO the best in this state. If she's on the best handicapped ( under our current pathetic system) horse in a race most times she will get it home.Doesn't seem to shine as much in competitive races when the pressure is on an...

Best for me also is Watermans Bay. Best each way Ive had a crack at Ripper Red in the last at $12. Found every bit of trouble possible last start and it is hard not to be seduced after watching the replay a few times. Main multi : Stocks PLACE into W...
