                       OUR BEST

BR7 H1 TIGER SHARK($7.50); good mare who is a pistol 2nd up. She loves to roll along 2nd up so might just take it up. Track and distance are key here and she is a Listed winner. All things align a huge chance.

TIGER SHARK($14); 8th beaten 9.1L, horror show never going to win. Blew big time in the betting.

MR8 H3 POUNDING($13); this horse is always around the placegetters. After the claim he is in pretty well with 56.5kegs. He likes to sit just off the pace to midfield and ping home. Cherry ripe here4th up after a very good run last start. 

POUNDING($20); 2nd/$3.40 place, beaten 1.3L, jumped in front settled 3rd on the fence. great run and plugged on in the straight.

MR9 H15 ZEITUNG($5.50); this filly is very fit and Group3 is her optimum level. She will settle off them and the 53 kgs are the key here. She likes the distance and the big straight here will suit. Handles all conditions. She will be chiming in big time at the distance.

ZEITUNG($5); 12th beaten 9.7L, got a mile out of its ground game over.

SUMMARY: once again just fell short in Our Best when Winnasedge went down in a photo. All had their chances. Soggy day at Doomben we have gone with a soft track but it is raining there this morning. Group1 Doomben 10.000 and Jedibeel($10) this horse has improved big time and was a little unlucky in the TJ. He handles these conditions beautifully. He does get back but hopefully around midfield here. Schwarz($8.50) quality group horse and he certainly likes to zoom along. Best distance and is certainly bred to swim. Tough to beat. Sunshine In Paris($4.40) top mare who relishes the distance. She can race handier to the speed which would be ideal for her. We think soft is as wet as she likes. Overpass($6) Group1 on pace horse that excels this distance. He is a pistol 3rd up  and likes soft tracks. Probably have him on top except for  the weather pattern. Not convinced he enjoys the heavy, Mazu($10) is always a chance especially in the wet. Super tough day at all venues with a plethora of chances in all races. We think we should get some value for sure. Our Best we have gone for the jugular with plenty of value. On that note ” GOOD LUCK” to all our members having a crack today and  “ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR RACING” cheers from Kerry & Dan Horsebuck$
