Pounamu is known within a number of WA circles as "The Bookies Horse" after being a beaten favourite at his past six outings. It is hard to ignore his first-up run when Carbery was unable to find any galloping room throughout the entire length of the straight. His effort to finish third was outstanding considering the run he got in transit. Stepping up to 1400m looks ideal and if can get into the open he will go very close. From a tipping perspective I am happy to put him on top, however, from a punting perspective you have to wonder whether even money about a noted non-winner is a wise decision. Flying Roar is unlikely to get the cosy run in front that he enjoyed last start with veteran on-pacer Right Honourable only carrying 51kg care of the claim to Shelby Bowtell. Expect him to ramp the pace on and ensure a genuine tempo. Cougar Nights has a solid second-up record and his run in the Belmont Newmarket behind First Among Equals was full of merit. Grey Enigma is always a places lock at this track and distance, yet again flying under the radar.

Anyone else smell a rat? Call me cynical (been around too long maybe?) but I feel like all of these tracks woes are some sort of orchestrated push for another agenda, probably political and to do with flogging off the tab. For the greater good of Perth Racing ...
