R3. Tabtouch Handicap - 1 January 1970

Can I finally Catch Him?

Selections

.

.

I was very ready to sack Don'tgetcaught a few starts back and left him as untouched as the veges on a teenagers dinner plate last start behind boom galloper Material Man, however, with the gear change I am giving him one final chance this preparation. There are two massive highlighted parts on my form guide for this race, firstly Blinkers OFF Don'tgetcaught and secondly Blinkers ON Operational. Don'tgetcaught pulls and over-races throughout the first 1000m of his staying races and costs himself any winning chance. With the blinkers off I hope he is more tractable during the early period of the race allowing him to run right over the top of rivals. Last chance for him to avoid joining Present Arms in the Cat Files. Operational has won all his career races with the blinkers on and they are re-instated here fifth up where he also possesses a powerful record. Willing to throw him into the novelties at 40-1. Ready To Fire needs every little thing to go her way being such a small horse and from barrier 2 should get those favours in running. Not a lot between Dust Me Off and Verdello Blue, no love from me for Senso who looks as though he needs the paddock.

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 ...
