Black-booking a trial to lay it on debut📈📈📈

@DreamTeamMatt one bookmaker didn’t even have a market up at 9am, according to betwatch when i checked.

It appears the 150-170% market increases may have stopped as of today. Let me know if you see it. Let's keep calling this behaviour out to ensure the market is as fair as possible, thats all we ask.

@WillElford 100% William!!! he barely gets rides midweek or in country meetings but was given the keys to a horse like that on a Saturday.

Astonishes me that Maher has continuously given opportunities to these English and Irish riders, particularly given the depth of local talent available. If King Of The Sea doesn’t eventuate into a Stakes horse, I’m not here.

@LBLFC_ if Wirtz tried to find any other player than Frimpong, he’d be half decent.

Every game is just the same, isn't it? It's like a training session... It doesn't matter if it's Burnley at home or Manchester United away… this Liverpool side just has zero intensity.

@LeagueFreak Obstruction not ruled with a fake excuse, touchie missing the forward pass when right in line with it and the Bunker not overruling the obstruction. How bad is the game going.

That call was insane. Totally wrong. Video ref needs dropped for it.

@gkxlsi “proper depth” and its horses Asfoora can beat 😂

Ka Ying Rising is ridiculous, no doubt… but can we all relax a bit Win streaks in HK sprints ≠ Ascot in June Do it at Royal Ascot under pressure against proper depth and then we can start the “best ever” chat… until then it’s just bullying his own backyard

@TheAusInstitute @Martin_Flanagan @AmyRemeikis goodness me… 💩 if they lose money gambling, make it possible for them to win by reducing taxation.

A 1.4% levy on the gambling industry could compensate the media for ALL revenue lost from a potential gambling advertising ban. Australians lose more money gambling than any other country. It's time for our governments to act. @AmyRemeikis #auspol

@JHumphreys28 had a few joints asking for those details - but they’ve all paid up once sent through. still complete shit they ask for it, though, hoping for a gotcha to withhold funds.

@JHumphreys28 any futures positions so far?

@daveystan1 @PrideRacing @SkyRacingAU @adrianscig Is that his decision or Godolphin’s? Because that is completely bonkers.

Just spoke with Joe Pride. @PrideRacing More than likely ATTICA goes to George Ryder into Doncaster. Not the Rosehill Guineas. $15 in the George Ryder $15 in the Doncaster Hcp Rider TBA @SkyRacingAU @adrianscig

A vet using the Denis Denuto “it was the vibe” defence against O’Shea’s conduct is ABSURD 😂 - No abusive language - No threats made to anyone - Claimed O’Shea was invading her space… after she was the one who walked over to him! Result? Three charges handed to John O’Shea.

@TRBHorseRacing looks a Godolphin battle in the Rosehill Guineas - would you project Attica to have enough upside to beat Observer if they met?

🏆 Breaking down the 2026 G1 Australian Guineas won by Observer 🏇 Observer returned a 97.5 rating. That sits just over 2 lengths below the prior 10-year median of 101.4 and makes this the lowest-rated edition of the race in that period. Legarto is the only other winner in that time who did not break the 100 mark. Mystic Journey is the standout winner with a 104.3 rating. So why did it rate moderately? ⏱️ On the clock See the TopRate screen image below. The race was run at a good, genuine speed, +2.1 lengths above standard to the 800m. It was set up to produce something decent in terms of overall time. It did not. The overall time rating came back at -0.5 lengths below standard. Of the three 1600m races at Flemington on the day shown in the red box outline below, the Guineas was run at the stronger early tempo but produced the slower overall time. A moderate mid-race section from the 800m to 400m did not help, but there was no strength in the final 400m to offset it. For a Group 1, that is a red flag🚩 The 3YOs carried almost 2kg above WFA on my scale, which needs to be acknowledged from a speed perspective and is factored into the WFA Performance Ratings, but even allowing for that, it still comes up light on the clock. 📐 Margins & depth Just 0.7 lengths separated the first four across the line. That is the second most compressed top-four margin in at least the past 22 years. The median beaten margin to fourth in that period is 2.7 lengths. Planet Red and Sixties rated slightly above their last-start figures, and just over a length off their absolute best. Behind them, the likes of Victorious Spirit and Bingi end up with big new peaks. With modest merit on the clock, and nothing in the compressed margins or the ratings of those behind to challenge that, there is no objective basis for the race to rate any higher. 🔀 Comparisons Observer has now completed the Victoria Derby and Australian Guineas double, the same feat achieved by Hitotsu in 2021/22, also prepared out of the Maher stable. That is where the comparison should stop. Hitotsu ran 103.5 to win the Derby and 101.3 in the Guineas. Observer has returned 98.5 and 97.5. His tactical speed and tenacity are major assets. He keeps winning, which is the most important thing. His consistency around his current rating level also suggests there may still be another level to come. But as it stands, Observer is yet to put a 100-plus figure on the board. This season alone, 12 individual 3YOs have already broken the 100 mark. Fellow Godolphin owned 3YOs Tentyris (106.3 peak) and Tempted (104 peak) have already produced multiple 100-plus performances, among others. That is the next hurdle Observer needs to clear before any superstar narrative becomes justified.

@WillElford @Racing_Previews new segment: Bad Will Fishing.

.@Racing_Previews and I are arguing. Both revved, Randwick 1400m, who wins: Jimmysstar or Autumn Glow?

Angel Capital bleeding quite noticeably from the mouth when he returned to the yard. Steward sponging his mouth. The vet that cleared him may be on leave for a while.

@nashhot @J_Walter23 fair enough mate, you’re right. watched stewards vision and got squeezed behind early. gave it every chance after that.

@jsham_23 @J_Walter23 Exactly sorry mate but you can’t jump over them 🤷🏼‍♂️

In @nashhot we trust! #Sandpaper

I'm seriously starting to question the credibility of the FIFA Peace Prize.

Beast Mode looks set to fall short at Caulfield Racecourse tomorrow: his recent form shows no wins in three starts after a dominant splash, the track conditions suit his rivals more than his typical surface wins making him our LAY of the day.

@Jesse_Way @ThatQuaddieGuy @bradbishop12 @WolfdenApp in their career, not their prep.

@ThatQuaddieGuy @bradbishop12 @WolfdenApp Without a fight was 1800, 2400, 3200?

The data behind Kingszones Melbourne Cup stat: L23yrs winners that had a prior career start longer than 2415m =19/23. Of the 4 that didnt, 3 had consec 2400m/Cox plate runs prior to Cup run. Half Yours to join Viewed as only horse to break this trend. @bradbishop12 @WolfdenApp

@Racing_Previews @dabblecomau absolutely no chance you’ve not paid out there @dabblecomau

.@dabblecomau not paying out third place dividend for pre noms bets in the Might And Power 🥶 Not stated anywhere in their futures Ts&Cs 🫣 Happy to bet 25 horses in pre noms market but not honour 3PD on day. Wonder if you bet place in 8 horse field and there was a scratching?
