Sad to hear our favourite caller has called it day after several decades of slip ups behind the binoculars… unfortunately he couldn’t get the photo finish wrong in his last race

This thread could also be the James Cummings Godolphin Farewell Tour

Geelong Cup now a ballot free race for the Melbourne Cup

Should raise the standard a little bit

Enjoying the month off the punt, but thought Castellito in the opener at Caulfield tomorrow was worth a mention here.

Already had market support and while the fave does look stakes grade there a few things worth noting.

Begg and Childs are going at 37.5% as a combo in town for the season from 109 rides, the horse has had 2 jump outs leading in. is by Deep Field who relish soft conditions, and further more, unless he rides over tomorrow, Childs has only had 3 rides in the last 12 months at 54kg for 1 winner and that winner Spd 3.4

Too big of a price not to get involved personally might have to have a 1X3 with those factors in my favour

No idea, trial form not something I take much notice of to be honest

The Brits just going with the flag start in the Nassau lol. Ridiculous

Is there something up with Ric McIntosh lately? Some of his calls in the last few weeks, he has sounded really hesitant and pausing a lot over names, a long way from his usual confident calls.
