Race 5: Scarlet tiger

Race 6: Sarah

Race 7: Russian Prince

Race 8: Queen supreme, next best

Race 9: Jungle Book x Earth shaker x Royal siege

Queen Supreme and Nimitz.

Razna to run in the first 4
Running on both starts
Has the experience
Hoping she can pull through at 13/10 a place
Inside Politics
Syster takes 4 off his back at 56kgs
This jock and trainer combo has 100% strike rate and this jock has good hands in sprints, hopefully he can keep rolling for the first 4 and scrap in a nice 2/1 a place.

6/1 place double

CRISSY'S GOLD (WIN)

Trying to find race records of the Dam
Shows she has won 3times over the 5furlong and placed many times

The jockey did not have a winner last season and 13 of his 17 rides were for the tarry stable :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: could get an easy win on a first timer today!!

Race 1 My filly Secret Dream is a nice filly. This sprint probably a bit sharp for her and this could turn out to be a strong field. Should be running on and hopefully could sneak into the quartets if not too green.

Like a couple of first timers that could place

SERENITY
WINTER ILLUSION

But will go with FLOWER OF SCOTLAND based of the experience having 4runs over the sprint distance,a good second and 2runs where she got going to late!!

One bet for me today Jungle Book in the last , let's see how it goes

She won maiden first time out Turf 1000m then 3 wins over 1200m at Scottsville in fillies handicaps. Best rating was MR 86. Tried a couple of times in features but no success that level.

I think this card is full of opportunity - let's see ...

R1: Varnica has everything in her favor and should win this - but I have rather opted for the 33/10 (1st 4) on Flower of Scotland than the 1/1 on V for the win. Christmas Flower has found support in the market, but, I don't think (open to correction) any of the Flower Alley progeny has won over a sprint yet; Peaceontherocks is said to improve with the run and probably over further; Doubled Over has also shown her best form over further and Razna I think may place if she can negate that inside draw, while Tropic Sun is also finding late betting support

R2: I'm in agreement here with Rosslee that Inside Politics is big place value at current odds ; as pointed out Syster currently has a 3 out of 3 record for Binda, and in general the 2 appies claiming 4 kgs (Syster and Dicken) have the second best strike rate (behind Murray) in the current season of all jocks riding today; so worth considering all their rides - at least until they lose that claim; Doublethink looks ready to win and is another inclusion in the BP for me; Nordic Queen another that must have some sort of chance on form, and then there's the 2 first-timers, who based on the betting support can't be ignored either

R3: 3 horse race; Tuscan Light overdue to win, but the de Kock first-timer may be too good for her; Tobefair 3rd best imo; Mr Dicken's ride Super Duper could make the quartet pay

R4: Real tough Graduation Plate in that all the runners bar Gimmethenight and Chief of State are returning from breaks over a trip that may be too short for many; so for me I think Chief of State is the right horse and 8/1 looks tasty imo; 2nd choice for me is Against the Grain, but I'm including most in the P6

R5: Alex the Great was fitted with blinkers last time in a Grad Plate and ran a great race when way out at the weights; rating has not increased, so a repeat of that run will see him canter in here; if he fluffs his lines, any of the others including the roughies Winter Twilight and Prix Eclips can take advantage

R6: Pinnacle Stakes for the females that look wide open; one that definitely needs inclusion imo is Nicky Noo, who really skated in last time and is going to make them catch her again at these weights

R7: Another Pinnacle Stakes, but for the boys, complicated by the fact that many are returning from breaks; Infamous Fox seems a worthy favorite, but there is a slight worry in that he seems better over further these days, but if not totally ring-rusty, should at least be competitive; main danger is Flying Winger, who is out abt 4 kgs with IF at the weights, but has the advantage of this being his 3rd run after break and is suited to this track and trip; Approach Control is another who is out abt 4 kgs with his stable mate, but has always given me the impression that he needed gelding, so depending on his fitness, could make the other 2 run; these 3 stand out imo

R8: Well how good is the hottie ? We will know after the race, as imo she did not beat much in her maiden, but she certainly won that in a canter; again I think Mr Dicken's mount could make the trifecta and quartet pay

R9: Again, how good is the hottie ? And again we will know after the race; he certainly does not seem to have that much to beat, but only the race will show if he gets the trip; should he fail, there is a few that could take advantage including the stable mate (blinker strike) who found big support in the market last time; again I think the DIcken's mount is huge place value at the odds - a look at the collateral form behind Matloob puts him in front of all of Gimme the Fire, Jungle Book (no value at the odds imo) and Earth Shaker

Enjoy
