The weekend wrap
Well punters another cracking day of racing yesterday at Rosehill. We had a very good day lots of collects. We had a very good top up on Friday night. This is how the fat man saw it.
Unique ambition was set up nicely for this fresh found trouble at 400m and once Blake Shinn put her in the right spot. There was no way they were going to beat her. Alabama State was huge run had no luck in the straight once Clear Flashed home. Keep eye on that one. The extreme cat pulled up lame forget she went around.
Marenaro caught wide got to the outside great riding by Nash got home so many forget runs in behind a lot of trouble last 200 m a lot of horses have a flashing light Next up Everido had no luck !
First light took out the 3rd race. It was just her week. She was too strong in the end winning easily.
Firestorm made it 2 wins in a row off the Brisbane campaign. She is in for a big prep. unusual legacy That was a beautiful run. She’ll be topped right off for the metropolitan next week. Mark her down. Mare of Mt Bulla didnt seem to let down in the straight at all once under pressure
perspiration Missed the start got well back sat off the speed and absolutely stormed Home over the top of them. Gatsbys Had his chance I think yesterday maybe he just wasn’t up to it. There is still a very good win in him.
Willaidow , she was just too classy for them yesterday really appreciated the 1400
Makarena jumped, hit the ground running and gave them something to catch. Well deserved Group 2 win Amelia’s jewel. She is on target for a big win. Keep eye on her !!! Senana no idea what happened to her.
Broadsiding wow this is a horse going places. The sky is the limit for him. Traffic warden was a eye-catching run deserves a spot in the Everest. Get on him now at the price !!!Good old storm boy don’t forget about him he will be winning a race real soon. Linebacker had his mind on other things. Fearless bled from both nostrils
Amor victorious jumped, hit the ground running played right into his hands right down in the weights with the blinkers on too good for them
Peace treaty had too much class. Got there in the end. Great ride again by Blake Shinn…. Pharari blew the start found trouble and absolutely loaded. Home should’ve won by lengths
What a win Friday night by Southport Tycoon stormed home late and won by a bee’s penis paying $21 thank you
Another great training performance by chris waller and his team
Linebacker was a complete forget yesterday his mind is elsewhere i feel he may loose 2 precious stones soon
And thats how we finished the week punters full pockets💵💵💵💵
Kensington 2yo Trials Review
KENSINGTON TRACK
looking for the winners of next month’s Breeders’ Plate and Gimcrack Stakes.
Varejao opened up a handy break. He shook off his companion and established a big lead 200 m out, looking very much the ready made two-year-old
Nitro (by Deep Field) made a stack of ground from a clear last on the turn and ran into second place a few lengths back.
Gambler looked to travel best into the straight but when asked to go didn’t find as much so perhaps he has some upside.
Memo looked quite impressive in her easy win. The $350,000 Captialist filly (out of Notation) sat back near the tail and settled well, she came around them to make her run and did it comfortably by just under 1-1/2 lengths under hands and heels in 49.33.
King Kirk, as the name suggests by Ole Kirk, sat third on the fence and he changed stride noticeably when coming across heels before he balanced up. Might be worth keeping an eye on
O’Ole matched the fastest time of the morning as she showed good speed to lead, travelled nicely before being felt for about 150m out.
KEEP EYE ON THESE ONES PUNTERS
What a perfect picture
Jockey Johnny King got more than he bargained for when his mount Arbritrageur went airborne before a race at Ireland's Laytown Racecourse last year. Amazingly, both the horse and rider managed to land on their feet, and King got right back on because he's a jockey damn it, and that's what they do. Alas, Arbitrageur and King finished the race mid-pack.
Weekend racing
Wow punters what a weekend of racing we witnessed.. was a fair day on the punt for me had some Barry Crockers and a few wins this is how i saw it
Silentsar hit the ground running and stuck on well for a hard fought win, Alabama state was a huge run keep eye on him Lancaster Bomber was wide did all the work he is much better on Canterbury racecourse
Wiggles was a nice run he will be winning again real soon, Intervarsity had a razza complete forget run

The winner sunshine in paris wow she was good winning well with a explosive turn of foot T Berry was full of smiles getting off her saying im excited to see whats still to come with her.
Meida world found trouble and got home good run was much better than on paper. Snack Bar is the horse to follow out of this getting home running good time into 3rd and Lady shenandoah storms home down the outside to win well showing she is in for a big prep this time in.
Traffic Warden what a win what a horse what a price thank you he will be a serious contender if they head to a Everest Storm Boy was good again dont get off him yet and Linebacker is on target for a big win
Encap has competed at the top level every prep and gets a much deserved win here fitter for the run and the best horse won the race simple as that
Ostraka storms home late to win easily the last race Blanc De Blanc was huge getting home Into 2nd a win is not far away for him
Down in Melbourne (Mexico) i say was saw some great racing the spring carnival is going to be amazing but a special shout out the the toughest horse going around at moment he stormed home late and got over the top of them to win huge effort and pay day
Congratulations Mr Brightside
THE SATURDAY WRAP
well punters what a day of racing Saturday, we had some up and some downs, i watched some horse i liked win and had nothing on them but that’s racing. Here’s how i saw it
randwick
Annulus – Raced wide and without cover throughout the event wouldn’t have mattered was not good enough, Cheerful Legend – Held up for a run between the 400 m and 300 m. Jockey dropped his whip at the 75 m, was unlucky not to win, take nothing away from Northern eyes- was too good on the day huge win winning 4 in a row making his way through the grades, been a great training job by Kim Waugh. POWERS OF OPAL she has a powerful turn of foot will be winning races very soon mark her down.
she is here own worst enemy Lost – Began only fairly and then was bumped early, Refused to settle in the early and middle stages and got its head up. pulled up slow to recover . 1 more chance. Spring Lee loves the 1100 m and showed that yesterday great win,
Melody again wow she was impressive great win and a nice freaking collect this old fat man needed. Atmospheric Rock was the eye catching run again running into dead ends should have finished a lot closer.
race 4 will haunt me for life Redstone well i had her marked all week come race day i jump off moving on the dry track is the key and had a great run relaxed and bolts in.
Galeron -– Held up for a short distance after straightening. i don’t think that would of changed the result, Major Beel hadn’t won a race in 524 days but still beats me, thats old Fj luck puntersd
Manaal - showed her class tough win she will be winning many more, eye catching run Lazzura. Ameena went down fighting again huge effort, its looking like a great race coming up when they have to take on Autumn Glow
I AM ME is one tough mother trucker wow that was impressive just held off the fast finish of Bella Nipotina she is awesome what a turn of foot,
Zardozi is much better than that complete forget run, Nonconformist huge run making ground late, Buckaroo and Hinged were huge runs both on target.
Amelia’s jewel and Kovalica are the 2 horse to take out of this race, the winner Royal Patronage was very impressive running fast times look out spring.
Flying Destiny and Thunderlips both very good runs Hanau was too bad to be true made some ground up the rails late, Uzziah hit the ground running and never looked back great ride.
