Hi Guys..
Not my usual study today..but buoyed by recent succes i'm having a go..
just havent the time during the week ..especialy after spending alot of it reviewing the weekend races..
will cross my fingers and hope to god..but i do feel reasonably confident on a few..

Saratoga...Ipswich doesnt necasarily favour front runners ..but it does favour the Jockey's that know the track..Byrne is a master here..as is Seamer and when he was in form Pelling....
Keep an eye on Bryne and the local jocks ..
Good luck .

Ipswich
*Medieval Time .this horse will race prominent and is due for a win after some creditable runs of late..
*Nasarlo ...this is a weird one...usually races prominent..last start he missed the kick and was ridden back but flew home..hard to do up the hill at toowoomba..
maybe they've found the trick to this horse..theres heaps of speed here..Pisachi knows only one way..flat out..works the same as well ,,complete nut that you just cant hold....i'm gambling that Pittman will ride Nasarlo off the pace and will come home hard..he knows the track well ,,which helps..Aeritino with the blinkers will improve and is the danger..
*Wizard Princess..good race for her..best jockey around Ipswich on board..
you could just follow Bryne all day today and do pretty well..
Ballarat
*Princess Poppi, *Prague
Ballina
*Can Man, *tea Biscuit, *Umatrik/ *Lord Nediym , *Beamer /*Kaaptive Idea.

Ballina looks a good card...thought Umatirik the best of the day..but he does get back and needs alittle luck..,,Lord Nedym was over to short last start and is in good form and aswell likes the track,,could be value ..
Beamer looks fantastic ,,saw him the other day and he just looked a ball of muscle..he''ll race prominent here and give a good sight..
i like Alifly but think he'll be to short..Kaaptive idea and Alifly will be suited by the speed i'm guessing....
alot of people are Expecting Planagram to roll along up front ..but if he does what he did last start when he slowed them up ..it'll suit Beamer..
Alifly and Unbound last start were both hindered by Planagrams go slow..
today however he has High octave up front aswell that might see a better tempo..

as you can see i'm alittle worried about the tempo in the cup...but either way beamer will be there somewhere,,,

Good luck all

Thanks Mav, I'm in a hurry to get out of here, I have 2 of 3 in the late win 3 at DelMar and it's the final race of the meet! (1=$24-10=$7- I can't remember the 2 (or 3 I hope) #'s in the 10th. It's hard to write it all down when you bet on the phone acct. Route me in! and let's get em tonight. Ipswich speeeeed(I dunno, it was last week. I'll back Byrne all day. THanks for all the info Mav.

MAAAN, I didn't get it. My horses came in 2nd and 3rd, and to make matters worse (really better) I hit the double into the 9th(not the 10th, I was wrong) with the #4 who paid $35. I didn't scope him out until the last minute, but at least I'm in action for Ips. PS the treble paid (1-10-4) $1100. UGH For a couple dollars more>>>>

Hey guys, had a bad day yesterday after some good previous days...Belmonts heavy trk undid me lol...Today is turnaround day...Some thoughts on Northam...

R1 Grand Otto will be favourite (PJ on board) but I like Greek Goddess's 2nd last time out at Belmont (same distance and a dead track) to Foxy Date (who has gone to win since) and 3rd King Risca has also won since so it was a good form race...it was a solid finish and worth taking note of for a race like this... Briannas Girl and Lady Shiraz will be forward after solid trial form.

R2 Not sure about this one...Glen Erin Rose showed some potential against better fields than this...Lady Abjar's 2nd to a fit Alpha Nova was in similar conditions and better time than Lightspeed Lad (also in similar race conditions)...Stormy Pleasure likely fav and Bagsnatcher and PJ to watch...

R3 Anything could win this with The Gray Bear (again PJ riding) likely to be a short fav but has fair Bunbury form...first up since April...Hill Fifty and Jen Magic the improvers...Mojoman and Western Victory have won recent trials not sure what Les Smiths Regal Bay will do but best to watch markets on this one...

R4 Coojedup for me good 2nd to Stanz The Man which will stand up in this company and Jackson Creek, Pay Day Girl and Sarjeant the dangers...

R5 Spun Glass to beat At Peace and Bet Ahead

R6 Beaucreton's form should be too good over this distance...I like Classic Pinks finish for 3rd chasing Armiger and Yorkshire Rose over 1650m J Valas's claim will help.

R7 Honest Records run for 4th behind Spirited Gem over 1200m at Belmont was an eyecatcher in first start this prep...think it will beat Dual Power, Lord of the Spring and Treasury Lad

R8 Havent the foggiest maybe Belabjar...

R9 Sand George (scratched from Wednesdays Belmont meet) has good form for this but Alees Taxi will be all the rage Micas Star, On Our Metal and Black Money in the exotics...

Good luck hope you have a great day and lets hope its turnaround day for me lol!:
