My views on punting

Reachin’ Out is the least experienced of the nine runners in the $1 million Percy Sykes Stakes at Randwick, but she might just be the filly with the most upside. justhorseracing.com.au/news/australia… @GaiWaterhouse1

@Jackson_Oldham1 The one thing you can hold onto is that the rain is coming?

Let me quickly look at the scores to check on my unders bet..

@professorpunts Surely they will be positive

It wont be this race if they continue with the negative early tactics.

@DustinSpriggs4 Good points dustie, and on that day she had to do the donkey work. Might see a quieter ride on Saturday.

@Sysmo1 Interesting way to look at it but I’m inclined to be forgiving of that. She was 5th up thrown in the deep end off a prep that began at the midweeks. She’s 3rd up set for this race. Can only find out with hindsight

An intriguing map for the G1 Queen of the Turf, as is always the case with any race Pride of Jenni contests. Early Speed: Pride of Jenni will do her thing setting the tempo. Gate 1 isn’t ideal for her as she can take 100m to get through her early gears but still hard to imagine her being crossed. The drop from 2000m to 1600m 2 weeks between runs is interesting. She has done it twice before. Most recently last year going from the Aus Cup to bolting in against weaker opposition in Listed company over 1600m at Caulfield. She set a slow tempo by her standards in the G1 Champions mile in 2024 and dropped out to finish last being found to have bled post race. This was dropping back from 2040m 2 weeks after the Cox Plate. Treasurethe Moment and Perfumist look likely to play cat and mouse to fill the unwanted role of staying in touch and carting the field up to her if she does get away. Prediction: This race sets up nicely for Idle Flyer. The Smith mare looks to be forging a break out prep and the map looks great settling a pair or two forward of midfield and outside Lady Shenandoah. She was terrific stepping up to a more suitable 1500m and taking out the G2 Emancipation by 0.7L 2nd up. She has a win and a 2nd from two Randwick mile starts and the strong tempo in this will suit. Lady Shenandoah has appeal in a prep that has her being set for a mile after targeting the Everest in the spring. The map is a slight query. She’s drawn 2 with Jenni inside so J Mac will need some luck getting it done on the rail. She may have the class but enough risk at the price for me.

@SEN_track @zpurton Can we get a long-range weather prediction for October 17, 2026?

"I would be concerned. I wouldn't want to take the chance." @zpurton has one main concern for Ka Ying Rising's Everest attempt this year...

Percy Sykes Stakes Reachin' out 1U @ $7.00 🎯 Good debut, she improved 4 lengths from her trials. Small query on track that day but still put 4 lengths on She's extra who rated an (88) under weights. Both the favs here have to carry a 2kg penalty which makes the race more even.

@J_Walter23 Giga

The TJ Smith and the AJC Derby look the two races that Open up the most with the rain arriving. VERY tricky now! #CatAmongThePigeons

Joliestar backers rn… Another masterstroke by the BOM. Sydney about to get 3x as much rain as was forecast.

@J_Walter23 How many times did you check this camera over night john? I did wake up at 430am to check the radar ha.

Randwick Updated to a Soft 6. But would have to expect it is likely to get to the worse side of that with rain still falling ..... #DoncasterDay #Moist

@princerubiton @simcam29

Two words - lasqueti spirit. Sounds like one camp is out to make it a fast run derby

@Racing_Previews @SureThingWA Jmac will find the 1:1. It's what he does.

@SureThingWA I think he lands there unless Jmac wants to be super positive on Joliestar and force Tyler three-wide no cover.

My map for the TJ Smith

@Racing_Previews briasa 1-1 🤭
