Question re Perth racing on Saturdays.

Is a way you can watch detailed coverage of the early WA races? I noticed when it starts on Sky Thoroughbred Central Brittany Taylor always says 'hello to our Sky Thoroughbred Central audience for the first time today ' so by that statement I assume the earlier races are covered in detail but just wondering where?

Hopefully you had something on SoR otherwise that's pretty grim

Not a great day yesterday, bailed out by Lunar Flare. Nomination for worst ride of the year goes to Tommy Berry on Entriviere, geniuinely awful.

Would anyone know when the stand-alone tab’s are opening ?

You would assume with the announcements today that TAB's will reopen next weekend.

God the valley is a sh*t hole

Why?

It's a cracker of a track to watch the races at.

Can’t stand it barely plays fair it’s a dump

All tracks will have a bias on various days.

MV is a quirky track due to the shape and short straight.

It's far from a 'shithole'

It’s a terrible racetrack for top class racing

Fair enough in my opinion it seems to have more biased days than any other metro track

most tracks horses can get a clear run early enough even if held up. the Valley if you are trapped inside, its so tight you never get a run. So many countless races where the best horse hasn't won. Then you get the occasions where its a biased to the fence track and the horses who aren't drawn near the rail have no chance before they even jump.
Its a disaster of a track,

I like MV as something different. It brings a new set of challenges when picking a winner.

* he is an idiot

 

[mcnulty]

The Cox Plate has the greatest honour roll in this country’s racing history. To whit, the good ones handle the Valley. Track bias is a disgrace wherever you find it, but I’d reckon you’d find more boilovers in Australian Cups.

I love it.

 

[rank and file]

I wonder if Gil McLachlan is enjoying Neufbosc's fall from grace as much as I am.
Turned into a WA country cups battler,as it carries the top weight in the Northam Cup at 20-1.
Small e/w go for the lols.

Can always tell who Bailey has his hard-earned on.

He's actually a decent caller when he focuses on the race and not his betting account.

I like it as something different too, the track I waste the least money on by far even if it's Cox Plate day.

Absolute *en shithole.
