GOSFORD
well tight asses you have to wait till the last but I think CREPE MYRTLE only just missed fresh when a length off them at Warwick Farm — a run that screams “ready to win.” Drops back to easier company here, fitter second-up, and looks very hard to beat. Should be right in the thick of it when the whips are cracking.
what a cup and barn dance
Well punters, what a day across the tracks — wallets fatter, livers flatter, and egos inflated like we trained the bloody things ourselves.
At Randwick, poor Natoya went down by a bee’s appendage — that’s right, not even a whisker, just a microscopic sting away from glory. Then Carbonados said “hold my beer” and stormed home like a thief in the night — cha-ching! 💸 Ticklebelly ran his guts out, tried his absolute ass off, but just couldn’t quite get there — still, the place money kept the top-up rolling in. And how about Osipenko? Finally finds a win, dropped in grade so far even my retired greyhound could’ve run past that lot. Honestly, even old Fat Jockey could’ve steered him home!
But the real sugar hit — Sunrise taking the last at Randwick and filling the bank like it owed us rent. ☀️💵
Down south at Kembla, Luma Light lit up the tote board with a tasty win — bank rising higher than interest rates. And Zoucratic? Third place and a sweet $3 back for the loyal place punters — lazy ten bucks turns into a lunch shout.
Up north at Eagle Farm, we had Cutepi — who saw more backsides than a single bloke at Mardi Gras — horror show of a watch, should’ve bolted in. But redemption came quick thanks to Lonhro’s Queen, who stormed out of the pack like she had a personal grudge with gravity. Bank → skyward 🚀.
Then over in Flemington, Pallaton made sure the southern account stayed healthy — a tidy win before we toasted Jamie Melham, who’s now made history as the first female jockey to pull off the Caulfield Cup–Melbourne Cup double! Massive round of applause 👏 and a cheeky reminder to the blokes — lift your game lads!
And just when we thought the day was done — Dance To The Boom exploded home at $21 the win and $4 the place. The best part? Watching the account balance swell like a Friday night ego.
So if your pockets are overflowing and your stomach’s full — text the boss right now and say:
“Not in tomorrow, mate — I’m still counting my winnings and partying like it’s 1999!” 🎉💃🕺

THURSDAYS FREE TIP
Alright you bunch of freeloaders — we had an absolute Barry Crocker yesterday, so let’s try and right the ship before the weekend drinks fund evaporates completely.
Today’s free best each-way comes at WYONG, Race 8 – SARRISMO.
This metro four-year-old’s got gears, class, and hopefully a brain this time. Bolted in first-up at Hawkesbury like Winx in a maiden, then found deeper company at Rosehill and did his best work late after being everyone’s short-priced heartbreak.
Third-up, fitter, four weeks between runs, and should be ready to remind the bookies who’s boss.
Wednesday’s free tip
Alright you tight-arse punters, here’s your freebie of the day — no paywall, no subscription, just pure generosity.
Rosehill Race 5 – Ninette
Fresh off the paddock after dusting a Wyong maiden on a heavy back in May, and she’s been trialling like she owns the joint. Gate’s a bit sticky, but she’s got a motor under the bonnet. Don’t disrespect her — this girl could roll the favourites and make you look smarter than you are.
Get on, or don’t — but don’t come crying when she bolts in and you’re still holding your coffee instead of a ticket. 🏇💸
GET YA BACKSIDE TRACKSIDE
Righto punters, dust off the notebook — Fat Jockey’s Black Book is open for business!
Despite a little pre-race whisper about her setback, Stefi Magnetica said “hold my oats” and rocketed home with the fastest last 600m of the day. She came from the clouds, swooping like a seagull after hot chips — safe to say, she’s back in business! And if history tells us anything, this girl only gets better deeper into a prep. Strap in.
Now, here’s the sneaky one — Dark Glitter. She had to check, stop, weave, and probably show her ID to get back on the rail, but once she saw daylight, she absolutely sizzled home. Her 400–200m split matched Stefi’s 10.91 — that’s elite speed, folks. Just had too much to do from the caboose.
🖊️ Fat Jockey’s Tip: Keep Dark Glitter in the black book — she’s ready to sparkle next time when she doesn’t have to run through traffic like it’s peak hour on Parramatta Road.
Well punters, Attica just told them all to sit down and behave in the Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes (2000m) — and gee whiz, didn’t it look as good as it reads!
While Queen Of Clubs and Within The Law plugged away like honest little stayers doing their homework, it was Attica who dropped the hammer from the 400m–200m and said, “catch me if you can.” Spoiler: they couldn’t.
That burst of speed not only blew the field away — it also blew a hole in Fat Jockey’s wallet. Yep, he took my cash and didn’t even buy me dinner first. But credit where it’s due — that was a genuine Group 1 motor on display.
🖊️ Fat Jockey’s Note: Put a star next to Attica. He’s the real deal. As for Queen Of Clubs and Within The Law — they’ll pick up something over a trip soon enough, maybe when Attica’s off being famous.
Now excuse me while I go count the coins left in the punting kitty… 🍻🐎
Chris Waller’s at it again, folks — quietly rolling out another rocket ship while everyone’s looking the other way. Skyglider has gone from a sleepy winter maiden winner to a Brian Crowley Stakes (1200m) hero, and he’s done it with a bit of flair.
He had a peach of a run, sure, but when he let rip, he really let rip — clocking the fastest last 600m of the race and a slick 11.93 for his final 200m. That’s what we call warp speed in punter terms.
First-up, lightly raced, and already dishing out lessons to seasoned campaigners — remember, he knocked off Sixties and Estremo on debut, and they’ve since gone on to win Group races. That’s no fluke — that’s form, baby.
🖊️ Fat Jockey’s Verdict: Skyglider’s the type that could sneak into a serious race and blow them away before the market even notices. Keep him under the cap — he’s airborne.
midweek collect
another cracking day on the punt midweek magic at Warwick Farm — Chicama, Sun God, and Kimberley Secrets all did the heavy lifting early, filling the pockets nicely. then we took the winnings on tour down south to Caulfield, where Grand Larceny and Wootton Verni kept the till ringing. bank topped up, bookies bruised — just how we like it.
winners
💰 SCONE RACE WRAP – 2 bets, 2 collects, the bank is bursting 💰
Race 2 – Empress Tsarina: I told you she was perfectly placed, and like royalty she strutted down the straight, storming home to take the cash. $3.30 the win, $1.70 the place – thank you very much, crown polished, wallet heavier. 👑💸
Race 6 – I said I couldn’t split Upwardly Mobile and Salvato… and guess what? You didn’t need to. They fought it out tooth and nail, but Upwardly Mobile lifted late to grab the win, Salvato brave in 2nd. Quinella lands, the double collect comes home. 🏇💥
Coming up
This Saturday, Randwick turns into a mud-splattered battlefield with a Heavy 10 track that’s soggier than your socks after a bushwalk in a thunderstorm. We’ve got a cracking race card lined up – the Winx Stakes takes centre stage, backed by the Premier Cup, Toy Show, and Silver Shadow Stakes, assuming the horses don’t need snorkels by the jump. Fingers crossed for minimal scratchings, but with conditions this boggy, even the ducks are checking the form guide. Meanwhile, Moonee Valley and Eagle Farm are chiming in with their own dose of racing action, so wherever you are, get ya backside trackside – it’s going to be wetter, wilder, and more thrilling than your mate’s bucks night gone wrong!
the wrap up
Well punters, we saddled up for a day at Kensington and it was a rollercoaster — with a few champagne moments and one runner who might still be trotting past the post.
Race 1 – Cantiamo: Straight to the front, job done, drinks on us 🏆
Race 2 – Sanctified: Tried to ruin the party but settled for silver 🥈
Race 3 – Tazima: Another win, fat wallet getting heavier 🏆
Race 4 – The Replicant: Replicated nothing exciting, 4th place yawn.
Race 5 – Moonlight Gambler: Might finish by next week, bless him 💨
Race 6 – Bat Out of Hell: Flapped hard for 3rd 🥉
Race 7 – Glory Daze: Solid effort for another 2nd 🥈
Race 8 – La Roja: Stormed home for the last winner of the day 🏆
Three wins, two seconds, a third, a fourth… and one still running. That’s the Fat Jockey way
Wednesday wrap
Well punters… what a shit of a day.
We saddled up with 7 bets and came home with... 3 bloody 3rds.
Not enough runners for a collect, not enough luck to bluff it.
A massive UP YOURS to the TAB algorithm that decided every race needed 5 runners and a protest.
We did jag one miserable winner — just enough coin for a deep-fried Mars bar and a can of shame.
Bank bruised.
Spirits are still intact.
But fear not: we saddle up again tomorrow
tuesday wrap
Race 3 – SHELLY’S ACE
We lined it up like a pool cue, and Shelly’s Ace loomed large at the 200m… but just couldn’t quite snipe the win. Still gave a shout, gave us hope, and gave the jockey a reminder to bring a longer whip next time.
Race 6 – VERMICELLA
WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!
Straight from the pasta aisle to the winner’s circle — Vermicella twirled through the field like Nonna was riding side saddle. Never looked like losing. That’ll do nicely.
💰 2 bets, 1 winner = PROFIT LANDED
Small card, sharp shooting. Fat Jockey punters eat well tonight!
