Maher stable today….
 

Randwick Kensington (NSW)

Race 1 – Invisible Magic
She has been thereabouts all prep. Unlucky not to have broken through for a win yet but if she can travel well in the run, she has the chance to measure up. The 'Data Ferrets' feel she can get a win too!

Race 4 – Crimson Miss
Third-up today and makes her first appearance in town this prep. Has found a suitable race to get a city-win added to her page with the good draw and claim of Anna Roper.

Race 5 – Epic Proportions & Negotiations
Epic Proportions is fourth-up and desperate for a win! This seems his race to lose and will get all the favours from the inside draw. He gets the tick of approval from 'The Panel'.Negotiations is on the quick back-up and was much better last time out. If there is a good tempo set, he will likely benefit and come rattling home with a good run.

Race 7 – Lady Boss
Has had a largely frustrating prep without winning. Comes back to mid-week grade and will likely use the inside barrier and keep out of trouble. She is the favourite, will be on speed and would be great if she can finally breath through for a win this prep.

 

Sandown (VIC)

Race 1 – Smother
Has come down from New South Wales in search of firmer tracks. He gets that today on a soft surface and will be sure to improve stepping up to the 1400m.

Race 2 – Exit & Life After Love
Two exciting two-year-olds take their place in the second contest. Life After Love has had two starts in Victoria and closed off well last time out at Caulfield over 1000m. She is drawn well and the step up to 1300m will likely suit. Exit is first-up and has jumped out extremely well this time out. She is the market favourite and in for a busy Spring if she can run up to her ability! She has the backing of both Reece and the 'Data Ferrets'.

Race 5 – Hazel Baby
Was much better last time out at Sandown finishing third in a similar contest. Strips fitter again and will be peaking third-up.

Race 6 – Vienna Vixen
Never runs a bad race! Drawn a sticky barrier but has the pilot to get her into a good position. Despite not winning last two starts, she is in super form and deserves a city-win against her name.

Race 7 – Jennivamoose
Very similar setup to her last start win. Same grade, distance and barrier but without the services of Harry Coffey through suspension. Blake Shinn steps in for his place and is eager to hold off a hungry Craig Williams in the Metro Jockey Premiership.

Race 8 – Juja Kibo
Has been building towards a win this prep. Stepping up to 1800m and drawn well, he has to be considered a good chance of breaking through for his maiden Australian victory.

 

Another 5 winners today. That last one was very impressive.

R2 Lofty Manuel ( gets McNab and blinkers )

Aussie roughies…

Rosehill

Looks like a tough day at the office.  Grylls not paying the bills on two hot pots already today.  Not that one can blame him, he put them both in the best position to win.  Just a boggy punters graveyard - bring on Aus.

Not if you follow Robbie Patterson and Tawhiti Hina - I'm doing very well, including a rare quaddie win

Jump lead win...so boring.

Tawhiti Hina is a very underrated trainer. I did well off his two winners.

It's not boring when you are on the winner.

The question I always ask myself is "why do the other jockeys make an effort to get forward?".

You can't just stick to pattern if it means you can't win .

I understand some horses just haven't got gate speed but plenty do but jockeys just don't show any intent .

I get Robbie is a great trainer but following him today would have you beat on 3 warm-hot favourites so far. 

Following him at New Plymouth is as easy as following Lisa Cole at a Whanganui Greyhound meet - sure they're going to get their winners by sheer numbers... but which bloody one

Spencer / Charjaba seem the obvious leaders.  Quinella Will Pay currently $50

Yeah you're right, I was just lucky enough to back his other one.

For Multi takers…

Taree R5 today….SHOW EM HOWL…

Two excellent runs in Sydney, back here should be far too good.

Anything near $2 looks money for jam.

The two at Rotorua will both win one soon.

Given up on Not That Easy…just too inconsistent after a slashing first up run.

Lenape Vibe..faded last bit after being outside the leader. K.McEvoy said after it ran over this trip last prep “ would be better with cover”….so go figure.

Relentless Voyager had no hope from where it was. Follow over further.

Je Zou similar but made good ground late without much room. Ended up 12th but only beaten less than 4l.

Stable like it for some of the Cups coming up so worth following.

alive n kickin, by Hokey...4 of the other 7 managed to lob into a place, none at huge odds ($1.85-$2.90 range) but will make a small profit...and as the old saying goes "no-one ever went broke makin' a profit" All good fun!
