Sandown's long straight suits, stays at the 1600m, Blake Shinn on board is a plus. Took $6 yesterday, into $4.80 this morning.

Belmont R7 #2 Starcienne. Quite taken by this mare who gets back and storms home. Stunning prep this time last year winning 4 on the bounce. Lean patch from March to September but appears to have returned in that customary condition with a brilliant first up win at Belmont on January 10. Retains Jordan Turner in the saddle from that win, steps up to 1400m with a solid record over the track and trip. $4.80 is a fair price IMO. Keen on it winning but based on the first up run, should be top 3 today and giving this a good shake.


Terrible ride by Shinn.

Literally gave him no chance of winning.

Yeah, gotta have another watch of the race but that’s how I saw it too. Not sure if he made up enough late ground anyway but again strung up in traffic when the race was on. Flat.

For me, it’s a big watch.

Again, trainer seems upbeat (but when aren’t they) could’ve raced at Gawler, Stath and Balaklava but choose a $50k race first up, I’m not sure how I feel about that.

Looks a bloody tough maiden race, 16 runners and we’ve drawn the Carpark (barrier 13) although the rails 13m out on the course proper I would suggest we would be looking for a bit of luck and Potter picking the right path, but again probably based on the tempo of the race.

Fingers crossed.

Can it draw a decent gate? Barrier 17 today



Barrier 17 again on Sunday!

For those playing at home, Kelsey Hannan is fine she'll be home tomorrow and the remainder of the meet will be concluded on Friday.

Followed this runner since an eye-catching run over the 1500m at Hawkesbury last year while with the Widdup stable. Has since changed stables and states, stepping out 1st up over the 800m at Warwick where it ran less than 3 lengths 4th travelling 15 wide the trip from barrier 10. Up to 1100m, which is still a tad short for my liking but retains the 3kg claiming apprentice and gets gate 5. Actually stepped midfield last start so if the youngster can settle her midfield/off speed Daytona Gal has a nice turn of foot to hopefully be in the finish. I took $6.50 early doors, drifted to $8 but back to the $5-$5.50 mark now. I can't see it getting much shorter, wouldn't take less than $6 and the apprentice rider over 1100m are queries for mine so tread carefully.


Warwick R6 - 12 Daytona Gal
Back in today after the abandoned Gatton meet. I'd like a track with a longer straight but has effectively drawn barrier 7 and tends to settle rearward. Shopping around the $6.50 mark. Each way claims. Taken $7 earlier today.

Warwick R7 - 9 Too Much Makeup

Short enough as second favourite at $3.70 but two runs this prep have been promising and should be in the finish here on those two efforts.

Daytona Gal went forward today. Didn’t appear to relish the damp conditions. Was an ok 3rd

Too Much Makeup was a bad beat. Had the race sewn up and veered sideways, lost momentum and lost by a hair.

Touugggggghhhh day

Benella Race 2 # New York Lustre @ $13

No luck last start, went back to last and then got squeezed up. Ran home to run fourth. Extra 200m suits.

Same. Took $13 boosted (into $11 or lower from what I could find). Tough luck in running both starts but boxed on gamely. $1.40 fave a bit weak late over this trip last run. Has a wide gate to contend with. A but of pressure up front would be nice. Good luck all.
