Import Point King Into the Melbourne  Cup off 108/115 in the Archer

As per usual with Melbourne the weather forecast was not even vaguely accurate, if those BoM dudes were paid ti[sters they would quickly be out of a job, The rain came and persisted and we slid through the Grades finishing on a Heavy track.

We kicked off the day in superb fashion with the $6.90 rated Gold Miner Moby Dick winning the 1st at $12. he was triple confirmed SR 91 in debut campaign and 91/96 here says he has come on. Headwall having only 4th run in a year returned to best when 2nd with 89/94., he has 93/95 on resume just over a year ago, So there is a race for him soon. Fav Nadal was weak with 85/85.

Alabama Lass lays down a Spring marker with 108/117

The first bit of Black type was race 5 for the new season 3yo's  where red hot Fav Move To Strike missed the kick and never featured  in a leader dominated race. Mind you he was still +12 and will be better suited stripping fitter stepping up in trip. it was the  resuming Poetic Champion who  jumped to a new level with 94/106 +14.(Home 22 flat) The ability to control and dictate like that with those sort of numbers says this guy has a big Spring ahead of him. The runner up Savaglee was an eye catcher against the pattern 85/102 also home 22 flat.  This should be a strong form reference going forward

R7 was the Breeders for the G3 fillies and  the stand out was the $1.7 rated Alabama Lass who was coming off an Sr 97 ...

Hong Kong Is Back

The new season beckons and we kick off this Sunday the 8th with an all turf meeting at Shatin where the hihlight is a C1, all in all we tread quite cautiously into new season with all runners resuming , it takes a few weeks for the flow to appear but thats not to say we dont find plenty of winners we just need be a little more patient.

Its only 5 weeks later we have the first G2 of the season so it does build quickly

As I have stated for some time the $7 Plandemic pricing is over and HK only will be $14 a week as of this season and at that is well worth every penny, mind you with Jason now doing NZ and HK back on deck you really are best tp spend $330 a 1/4 and get the Platinum subscription

The HK only package is 45 weeks and gives you full form expert comment, speed weight and sectional ratings for all runs, rated prices, speed maps, odds ...

Pinstriped - 113/111 as horse and barn grab maiden G1.


Its was another staggeringly good day once again where the winners just kept flowing and more importantly the numbers just kept lining up

Lovazou was our 1 x 3 top pick Gold Miner to start the day and after being held up early in the straight she drove through for 3rd after being back $5 to $3.8. I predicted 97 and got 89/92  but our run continued The winner was resuming 4yo Fire Of Etna who had run a career best SR92 2 back before being caught wide the trip to end campaign. 94/97 suggests she has come on and can only be suited by step up in trip. As for the runner up  Jennipending, I have long told you that at some point in a horses first 10 starts they have a 10 point quantum jump. She had 87/94 in a ...
