Derby Day Tips

[__Ron_]

No value in this race. Weekend Hussler should win even Lee Freedman conceded defeat. I'm going to lay Royal Asscher on betfair.

 

[stewpyd2]

Very good horse

 

[Ricketts]

Royal Asscher can't run a decent 1200.

Stuff the Emirates, they should take on Miss Andretti and Gold Edition next week.

Just a tad late, and I was sleeping while the first 2 races were run but heres were my tips

Race 3. The Fuzz
Race 4. Zarita
Race 5. Weekend Hussler
Race 6. Princess Coup
Race 7. Kibbutz
Race 8. Divine Madonna
Race 9. Storm Signal
Race 10. Valedictum

Race 6 - This looks like a really trappy race. So much indifferent form in this, could easily be a blowout. I'm going with mister consistancy Douro Valley and Princess Coup. So i guess i'm sticking with the weak Caulfield Cup form vs the super strong Cox Plate field.

.... and if David Hayes was right about going back on Miss Finland like he said this morning, then shes a star lay. Backmarkers have no hope today.

Race 6:

Box Tri - 4,5,6,10,12,13,14

Race 6:

Box Tri - 6,10,12,13,14,15

Douro Valley E/W as well. Massive overs i feel.

and zipping to run 5th lol

 

[stewpyd2]

Pillar of Hercules might be ok for a bit of each way value

 

[slushpup]

ok...

 

[__Ron_]

I was spot on. I could see that blowout coming, sigh another second.

 

[stewpyd2]

Devil Moon did nothing in the last 200m. What a joke.

 

[The Dustbin]

Massive run by Zipping.

 

[warney7]

What a pain in the arse.

Only one horse was going to take Princess Coup in the straight and it bloody did.

Damn outsiders!

The Cox Plate field was a joke this year. Do you really think Wonderful World is that good? On her last run i don't know how anyone could have taken her. I thought they'd spell her. Poor decision by Kavanagh to run her.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, eh Ron.

 

[The Dustbin]

Princess Coup now into 13/1, Zipping 7/1 for the Melb Cup. Betfair.

 

[stewpyd2]

Massive run by Zipping.

Agree. Funny how Starz got blasted in the other thread about Mac Stakes.

Took the $4.60 on offer for a place yesterday.

 

[Ricketts]

Fine Cotton!

 

[The Dustbin]

Hayes and Williams are due. Kibbutz will hopefully provide them with a change of luck.

I said the same thing before the race.

 

[The Dustbin]

How is everyone finding the c7 coverage? I would prefer TVN, shame they can't show vision in the mounting yard and of the races.....

C7 crap on to much about things outside of the racing. eg. fashion, neil kernery... Don't show enough replays of the previous race..

Greg Miles is a good caller.

 

[stewpyd2]

Its all I have right now so I dont mind. They obviously cater to the wider population with fashion etc but overall its not too bad considering the diversity in audience.

 

[__Ron_]

Yeah i don't mind it. I much prefer this over channel 9s coverage and i like Greg Miles too.

 

[tarky]

anyone getting on littorio next race? i'm liking his chances
