    Hot speed early I think, Soho Tribeca's race to lose.

    Sort of thinking the same..it's not often you see barrier 12 and think that's going to suit but in this case the 12 gate doesn't look too bad. Long way from being a good thing though. ( Stating the obvious )
  • Ridersonthestorm33Ridersonthestorm33    10,942 posts
    The Bucket List from the two...this IS the draw! No more coulda, woulda, shoulda! Don't leave out of calculations.

    Bettors to lead and then feel like Custer at Little Big Horn as the sacrificial lambs keep taking him on' one after the other,  as per the 2015 Pacing Cup disgrace? Geezus, Soho would kill for a barrier. Big call to say it's his to lose from gate 12 but I haven't not been on him since first up at Pinjarra, and win or lose, he never lets you down. He has been the find this summer that's for sure and I think 2900m in his favour. Local Hat on....Major Reality will appreciate 1 much better than 12 last week but could get buried when the leader collapses.

    Well said jayjay. I hope the track attendents have strong stomachs because they will be the ones who will have to pick up cyamach's head and take it back to the birdcage. The stable will be running this race to suit the bull at the back of the field. Kyle will want to be giving his horse plenty of weet bix Friday morning, he is going to need it.......

    The driving engagement for Cyamach could be interesting as the usual sacrificial lambs are otherwise engaged.

    Notice old warrior david Hercules is emg. You think the other race where his drawn   br2....Fork in the road regards his career. if he doesn't win that one.......Or put him away for the winter.?

    Love the Herc, absolutely love him, and it probably won't get a run making this a useless post....and I don't know if the connections of Rub Of The Green wanted a run or not but what is David doing as 2nd Emergency....long time out, no form.....hard to understand on the surface....
  • JayJayJayJay    8,624 posts
    The boys down here say the lead is not up for grabs from Major Reality....but I can't see it holding out Bettors if Kyle wants the front. Maybe he doesn't and breezes outside the mare until cover comes around.

    It would be very interesting if Lauren jones was given the drive and told to go forward at all costs.......
    Would she have the heart to burn Kyle?

    OVER 2900 Major reality is guaranteed a good spot, one of bonds and one of halls would be the only ones on a suicide mission  early.....major reality has got a good 2500m card plus a mare the hot weather doesn''t  get to her she won eight in row last summer.....Plus fresh legs sixth run in from a spell same as soho tribecca. Six runners have had to endure inters campaign. ..tired legs?.Lock it in eddie the major.
  • Ridersonthestorm33Ridersonthestorm33    10,942 posts
    The early market on the race - terribly tight. On the whole - shocking prices. The % must be way in their favour. Just $2.80 Bettors Fire..goodness gracious.

    Our Jericho should have finished first three Freo Cup. Kept running into bad luck and was last just prior to straightening. Beaten 10m and flat tyre.

    Has won over 3300m and I reckon ACL will opt for him.

    E/W all day 

  • JayJayJayJay    8,624 posts
    Geez, Flaming Flutter is on equal 6th favourite and its an emergency...bold pricing from TAB.
  • Ridersonthestorm33Ridersonthestorm33    10,942 posts
    Thought between $14 and $16 The Bucket List would be worth a few dollars. Just $8.50...ouch.
  • Ridersonthestorm33Ridersonthestorm33    10,942 posts
    Even Beaudienne Boaz only $5 that's poor too. Get real tab and get competitive.

    138% without the emergencies. Thats a bit rich. Wait until Friday before betting.

    Yeah 138%...If you can get 'overs' regularly by betting into markets of 138% you deserve to be punter of the century.

    Hey mate I hear what you are saying about our jericho but I'd bet my right eye he chooses John of arc. This horse has been screaming for a pegs draw and with j prentice holding a forward position all bodes well for John of arc. If Lewis sticks with him I'm liking the $31 each way.

    Very clever chariots......

    % beginning to coming down slightly ...prices looking more punter friendly..The Bucket List out to $12 overnight and Soho Tribeca out to $7.50. As Renee Geyer sung in the 70s...we're 'heading in the right direction'.

    One gets the feeling we might be singing a bit of aussie crawl after the race on Friday when jnr sweeps down the outside and wins.  


    Oh no not you again........

    How about Hot Chocolate 1978...'Every 1's a winner babe'. A good song to sing when you have the only winning ticket!

    Nathan Turvey on Cyamach, don't think he would play games.

    Quote from Hall Snr in the west today was cyamach to be driven "aggressively".


    You could knock me over with a feather......what a shock!
