Upon scratching of the three horse "An air of success" my vlaue bet kicks in hence I will be rowing in with "Seattle Tango"

Race 1

Ormond Ferraris
No 4 Chief Black Horse - Is a trier but battling to improve
Grant Maroun
No 7 Music In You - Hoping for improvement
Romeo Francis
No 5 Global Exposure needs to improve
No 10 Generoso needed the run on Thursday night. She will run better
this time and should go close
No 11 Old Oak will do better this time

Race 2

Johan Van Eck
No 2 Our Biscuit - Working fairly well
Gary Alexander
No 6 Charmed Life - Will need the run
Alec Laird
No 13 Bize - Will need the run
No 14 Factor Fifty - Will need the run
Heather Adamson
No 3 Sea Like Glass - She's a consistent filly and if she can overcome
a wide draw she should again run a nice race.
Tobie Spies
No 1 Take My Word - Will need luck in running from a wide draw
Grant Maroun
No 8 Glitter Path - Improving filly, should go close here

Race 3

Ormond Ferraris
No 2 Shukamisa - Seldom runs a bad race, not out of it

Race 4

Ormond Ferraris
No 14 Arrows Of Desire - Trying further, extra may now suit him.
Paul Matchett
No 8 Street Flyer - Usually finishes thereabouts, place chance
Brian Wiid
No 12 Jackman - Should run a better race
No 10 Streetwear - Is well drawn and he should give a good account of himself

Race 5

Heather Adamson
No 2 Monty Python - Is badly out at the weights but just hoping for a nice run

Race 6

Paul Matchett
No 8 Lily Starlette - Will need the run
Romeo Francis
No 12 Soul Of Wit has a chance. I am expecting a first three finish

Race 7

Brett Warren
No 8 Sporting Monarch - In form and distance suited, so should again
be in the mix.
Paul Matchett
No 2 Dan The Lad - Game and consistent, should be in the shake up

Race 8

Tobie Spies
No 8 Esemess - Battling to improve. Trying further
Paul Matchett
No 11 Viserion - Has'nt shown all that much but trying further and
hoping the longer trip will suit her

I was waiting for the day when Crucreek goes around the bend. I think he will run an absolute cracker today!

Favorite in race 1:whistle: naah not for me!! Was drawn bad last race12-13 over course and distance,but beaten over 8 lengths :whistle:

PITCH PINE

moves into draw 9!!
First race 1400m, 10.60 lengths of the winner Against the grain!!
1600m today, can the QUERARI gelding make up 10lengths with 200m more!! :lol: :lol:

Will have an E/W go

Fancies:

R1: SENORS GUEST (a penalty kick)
R2: GLITTER PATH (place bet)
R5: BLONDE VISION (place bet)
R7: DAN THE LAD (classy sort)

trying Generoso as well in my bipot etc plenty respect for both Chamu and Romeo's comment

In race 4 Festive Linngari should be competitive and Jackman is a nice outsider

Not a card that inspire me with any confidence ... the hotties in the first two look hard to beat, but especially the JP races look very hard .....
