Tips & Results 16th October 2021

OUR BEST; BR6 H3 ANIMATE($3.40) Had excuses last start when apparently the gates opened and was denied a fair start and ran home strongly. Stepping out to the 1600m is ideal and drops 2kgs from last run. From barrier 6 should be able to get a spot midfield and will be charging late. The whips will be cracking. 

ANIMATE($4.40); 3rd/$1.60 place beaten 2.5L, had a cruisy run behind the leader battled on fairly for 3rd.                                                                                                                               

BR9 H9 HALLOWED GIRL($8) Great win last start from well back. Third up today and stays at the 1400m which is ideal. Loves the track and distance and is adept in all conditions. Drops 3.5kgs from last run. If jumps well should be midfield from barrier 2. Huge chance.

HALLOWED GIRL($16); last beaten 7.25L, blew alarmingly in the  betting and ran accordingly. Did nothing.

MR3 H4 SANDY PRINCE($3.50) Great run in the G2 Stutt Stakes last start only beaten a length. Dropping back to the 1400m is ideal and the nice long straight at Caulfield will suit this galloper who likes to race on speed. Likes wet tracks and drops a kilo from last start and drops in grade. Ticks a lot of boxes here. Giddy Up.

 SANDY PRINCE($4); 3rd/$1.70/place beaten 6.1L, had a decent run behind the leaders beaten easily but battled on for 3rd.

MR6 H8 BUFFALO RIVER($3) Ran well last start when condition ran out the last 100m. Should be fitter for that run and staying at the 1400m is ideal. Drops 0.5kgs off last run. All wins have been with the sting out of the ground so if the track stays wet has an even better chance of winning. Track and distance suits and from barrier 7 should be able to jump well and be up on the pace and be very hard to run down. 

BUFFALO RIVER($2.70); FIRST GIDDYUP!!! once in front dictated fought on strongly.

SR10 H15 CAPE BRETON($11.20) Won his first two race starts last prep then went onto the the JJ ATKINS(G1) probably a bit out of reach for him. First up today and has had 2 trials to get him ready for this. Likes the distance and dropping back to benchmark grade is ideal. Bossy aboard is a huge bonus and only carries 53kgs. Likes the cut out of the ground. From barrier 1 should be able to sit right behind the leaders and be pouncing on them with 100m to go!

CAPE BRETON($); last beaten 12.2L, up behind the speed but never got into it and finished well back. Poor run really.

SUMMARY; A cracking day last week after Delphi and Enterprise Karen saluted in Our Best and Ellsburg getting beaten by a pimple lol. Huge day of racing so lets dive in and talk about  The Everest and we have Eduardo($6) on top here he has been getting better with age and there’s no reason to suggest he can’t beat the fav again. Loves the track and distance and is an absolute swimmer. Nature Strip($3.60) is a top quality sprinter but has the wide ally to contend with here, he was 4th in this race in 2019 and came from a wide barrier then too but has adapted better in his races recently so could over come the wide draw and take a sit, will be there in the finish. Classique Legend($5) struggled in the Hong Kong Sprint but has had three trials and won them all so looks up to defending his title. Track and distance suits and is adept in all conditions he will be midfield in running. Masked Crusader($10) is a top quality sprinter and has a massive turn of foot and will be streaming home off a fast tempo. Likes the track and distance and handles all conditions. Gytrash($7.50) is in great form and has had a nice trial to keep him ticked over for this race and the only query with this galloper is can he win over 1200m’s in weight for age conditions seems to always runs a place in these races. Loves the wet and from barrier 1 will sit midfield can’t see him trying to lead here. A cracking race for sure !! The Caulfield Cup and what a cracking race indeed. We think Incentivise ($2.50) can still win from the wide draw here as there is not much pace inside of him and as he has great gate speed should be leading here. He has won 4 from 4 on soft tracks so that shouldn’t be a problem and the distance suits a huge winning chance and drops 2kgs from last run. Explosive Jack($17) is a huge chance here, his last run was great running home nicely we think he is on point for the Melbourne Cup as well. Third up here today and conditions suit, the step out to the 2400m is spot on. Drops 4kgs from his last run and will be sitting behind the leading group and running on. Young Werther($10) ran a cracking race last start against the fav and the step out to the 2400m is perfect. Soft conditions suit and will be midfield from barrier 8 if the race doesn’t pan out for the others he will be charging home hard ! Homesman($41) didn’t handle the sit and sprint race last start but stuck on gamely he will be up on speed and is suited to all conditions. Drops 4 kilos for this race and placed in this race in 2018 so the distance suits. Genuine winning chance. Montefilia($17) showed she can win over this distance last start in the G1 Metropolitan she doesn’t mind wet conditions. She will be midfield and will be at it around the turn as she is a horse that takes time to wind up, would be surprised if she isn’t in the finish. Just like to talk about the G3 Craven Plate and Think It Over($2.20) has a huge chance here. Loves the track and distance and as we think the track will dry out to soft conditions so he will be suited by that. Has good gate speed and will be up on the speed, Nash will have him full bore at the 150m. Yonkers($26) is racing in terrific form and is good second up and the track and distance suits. Is adept in all conditions and will be midfield and charging home. Shared Ambition($5.50) will be up on speed also and be hard to run down. Likes the track and distance and loves wet tracks a huge chance. Sky Lab($15) was unlucky in the Epsom last start after not getting out till late the track and distance suits and is adept in all conditions. With even luck in running should be fighting out the finish.  An Absolute cracking day in the sunshine state with some cracking racing to boot. To all our new clients lets hope for a cracking day with plenty of winners also. On that exciting note to all having a punt good luck and remember ‘ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR RACING’ Cheers Dan and Kerry
