[Music] Join the conversation, text us on 0499-736-736. Live across Australia. This is Gidea with Garathol. Welcome back to Gidea. Gidea was brought to you by about 365. It's never ordinary when it's brought to you by about 365. What is gambling? Are you really costing you for free and confidential support because you can't really help online.org.au You probably said, "Basjiani, let's recap what was stable mail. Very busy. Are in 30 odd minutes." Let's do it, Mick Schell. This is our comprehensive summary of what was stable mail earlier this morning. The $100 staking plans for all of our trainers. So Michael Kent, Jr. He is $40 each way. Race 7, number 14, Boniface at Ramwick. And then he had $10 each way. Callfield Race 1, number 4, Brazen De Chambot. We're lacking very confident about the chances of Bitwitchery. That is Callfield Race 6, number 4. It's $100 straight out on Race 6, number 4. Callfield Bitwitchery. Daniel Bryan, Callfield Race 7, number 12, Sensory. Adrian Bodett, Ramwick. Race 10, number 4, Watson. Reese Goodwin, Callfield Race 9, number 11, lovely cut each way. Gavin Bedggood, Callfield Race 5, number 5, Behavier. Jack Turnbull for Kiran Mar. Callfield Race 1, number 3, Valleus to place into Race 6, number 9. Customs. So we suggested to take a double there with the $100 staking plan. And then we rounded out with Tommy Chalton, Ramwick Race 5, number 8, Ken Mara, Behavier each way. And Bjorn Baker just said, "Have your $100 straight out on Ramwick Race 8, number 4, Midnight Dynamite." And that is the comprehensive summary of the $100 staking plans for stable mail earlier this morning. Mixed out. Good luck to everyone who's going to have a play. Plenty of love there for many galagotas. Malachwira as well. So do appreciate your text messages. Keep them coming through. Plenty of good ones. Shout out to 5.62. Love the work there. Zero four double nine, seven three six, seven three six on the garage horse and hound. Text line. It's now time for the game plan. On Giddy up, it's time for Gators Game Plan with David Gaetley. Oh Gaet are this week. He's on a well earned break for Peter Anthus. We'll join us from Studio. Good morning to you Pete. Yeah, good morning to you Gennos. Gennos, morning to the listeners. Morning to all the viewers at home as well. Not surprise Gaet has had the week off. You have this card at Callfield. Callfield heath. This is a real one for the true believers this one. But no, there's going to be nine winners. And we're going to get stuck into it and hopefully we'll find a few but listening to Paulie recap the stable male. A few of the trainers perhaps haven't selected the horses. I thought might be winning. So we might have a little bit of a disagreement going forward. No, it's always good to take on the trainers anyway. Pete, that gives you your edge and speaking of edges, we've got a little, a little bit different today. Obviously you've got your standard key player. The long division will get to the D day horse and we'll have a highlight horse and you'll go through your best value, your each way play, your ruffie will have a quatties and we'll have the multi or the parlay as it's known as well. So plenty of the OG gear that you'd get with a Gator and G-Horb. We're also going to have a scouting report. We're going to tell them because we thought if we're if you're the coach and I'm the assistant coach, we probably need to know how the tracks are going to play Pete and maybe do a bit of a report first before we get into these meetings. So if you're a coach, you're going to have a little bit of a good start. So I'm going to tell you what the next day is. the map but recent ratings as well both of those seem to have a couple of links edge on the rest of the field so I cannot fault Watson whatsoever I think is a great race for that horse to be lining up and oh gee I'm glad you couldn't fault it a little bit of confidence there forget it would be having a blue five minutes into our first segment together d day horse I always love this this part of the show where we're gonna find a horse that basically it's now or never to still a term for our man we might be seeing other people and your d day horse is Celtics in race number two yeah I heard you're talking about this horse earlier and look You go back through the recent numbers and there's a lot of really nice wins of performances I should say from this source without winning. The two wins have been in what for and six source fields. So that's maybe a little bit of a query, but you go back two starts and this source and cruise away completely gaped the rest of the field. DeVeta actually comes out of that race. So, you know, going back through that fast tempo race is obviously really nice performances there, but I thought there should be good enough speed here for Celtics to be getting enough chances there. The field should break out. There should be enough ability for this source to negotiate some clear room in the straight, but I really thought the odds look absolutely rock bottom for a horse that seems to be finding one or two just a little bit difficult to get past here in the straight. So I'll throw out D-Day for Celtics. My D-Day horse comes up at Royal Rammweak and if you want to find out, well, make sure you stay tuned because we're going to go to a break D-Day horse coming up next and a whole lot more. We've got the best bet of the day, the highlight. Get your text messages in to get involved in the game plan zero, four and nine, seven, three, six, seven, three, six. Join the conversation, text us on O4, double nine, seven, three, six, seven, three, six. This is Gideon with Gareth Hall. Welcome back to Gideon. Gideon was brought to you by Bet 3, six, five. It's never ordinary, but it's brought to you by Bet 3, six, five. What is gambling really cost you for free and confidential support is a gambling help online.org.au and the sports bet. Corefield Cup Carnival Presale is on now, I'll save 40% on GA tickets. Get those text messages coming through for Pete Antones on the Gareth's horse and Hound Textline through O4, double nine, seven, three, six, seven, three, six. Gareth's horse and Hound for all your canine and equine essentials. Just recapping your D-Day horse Pete. D-Day for me, race 2, number 11 Celtics. We've got the key player as well, which is race 4, number 2, Davida, with something on Palm Angel there in race 4. Look, it's an interesting card to work through though, isn't it Gano? We spoke about the real highlight. I'm not sure there's a highlight race, but I thought the highlight runner, if the lack of a better term would be in race 6, number 9 custom. Her numbers last start. And even first up, her late splits over to 400 to the 200 home suggested that she's at a new level, but they've really just worked her out. I think this is a second prep with Kirin Mars team. From what I've gathered so far, if she continues this race, she's in line for black type at some point, this preparation. So she's absolutely flying. I thought if you're playing multies and so forth, she's just like your anchor of the day. So we'll get to that later on, I think. Looking forward to that. Yeah, Jack Turnbull, the national assistant trainer for Kirin Mars, warning said that she still has upside to come. So little bit, I wouldn't say scary, but to the IP, you know, real surprised to hear that, isn't it? No, no, there really isn't. And look, a lot of these runners that she's meeting there on Saturday, I think five of them come from the same Flemington race down the straight. Obviously, Betwitry is one of those and looks really the only major speed influence on paper, but this Corfield shoot just confuses people, I think quite often. Custom doesn't really matter if she's through, why don't I cover it? It's only left hand turn and you just run home. So as I said, momentum's going to be key there on the weekend and look if she does what she did last time out, she wins is pretty comfortably. Tell us about the Corfield shoot. So for those at home that most people have a good understanding, but a lot of the punters just don't, they see 12 millimeters Corfield and an awkward draw and they think it would all over. Yeah, exactly right. Probably the best way to actually get an idea of Corfield. And I encourage everyone who's in Melbourne to actually get out and do this one day is to actually go and walk the track. It's public land. So you can actually go and have a really good look, as long as they're not preparing the track is at the same time. But it's what you have for the track this. Yeah, exactly. Don't get hit by the irrigation. Yeah, especially if you're going to. Yeah, exactly. But those shoot itself, the 1200 meter races, 1000 meter races, they begin from their own just designated spot there on the track. It's actually off the track and by the time you actually join the course proper, you're already wider off the track, you're already in the middle of the turn, so to speak. So to actually find the fence, you actually have to veer in woods. It's actually quite easy just to sit there, go on a straight line, then just go around the turn. So look, the Camberat Corp Field does confuse a few horses and confuse a few jockeys as well, trying to build momentum at the right time. But I think the shoot is pretty straightforward. Damien Lane's probably the best that I've seen in my time at Corp Field out of that shoot. It doesn't matter if he's three wide, no cower, it's just about keeping your horse comfortable and in rhythm throughout the race. D-Day horse, for me, I'll take you to Royal Rammwick. And that horse, it's her name, I should say, is Erno. She went awfully close there last week for the punters at Double Figures. I think we have $13, we bet Gatwick just proved far too good for them. But it's six length gap back to third place. Now, albeit it was aided by a serious on-speed pattern there. But I think it's D-Day for Erno. If she can't win this, it'll be never again with my money, Pete. Yeah, no, I'm with you right there, you know. Obviously, I haven't had a great deal of insight into Rammwick, but I'm just looking at some of these numbers coming out and I'm on your side there. Yeah, she's got a, she's going to win a race. It's got to be there on Saturday. This is the game plan, Pete, Athanas, Mick Ganon. With the attack messages coming through, we'll get to all of these 0, 4-1-9, 7-3-6, 7-3-6 on the garage horse and how in attack messages Pete, Athanas joining us. The key player, better of the day, his value play. We'll do Corefield, we'll do Royal Rammwick. Got your parlay ready to go, Pete, as well. A attack message is coming, if you've got a question on any runner, send it through now, Pete, Athanas, and I will get to it right after the break.

DotAU in the sports bet, Corefield Cup, Carnival Pre-Sale is on now, say 40% on GA8. It gets kept the text messages coming in on the garage horse and how in text lines, 0, 4-1-9, 7-3-6, 7-3-6, garage horse and how in for all your canine and equine essentials. Pete, do you have access to the text messages there this morning? Plenty of love coming in for you. - Yeah, I do. Most of those, I think, are from older acquaintances and WA Wilder looks at things as well as Bear Robinson who's suggesting that North Melbourne's going no good and I mean they ran Hawthorne, I thought Bet and then expected their last week, but yeah, no, they still need to find a way to win Gano, which is half the battle when you're racing or sporting. - Yeah, generally winnings a very important element, Pete. Bordeaux, Pete and Gano give a shout out to XWA man with a great racing knowledge. I'm assuming that is you, certainly not me. Changing colors looks a best bet standout apart from custom at the Heath, what's Pete's best bet at Belmont? Well, we want to rein-effect a track, Pete, anything at Belmont? - No, I haven't started the form there. I wanted to see what the forecast is. Yeah, exactly, Ben too busy with Corfield Heath, but I think there's about 15 to 20 miles of rain forecast for our day and now Saturday. So Belmont, wet track is required, I'd be suggesting. - Bear's gone whack, Reckons-Cartons going as good as any Hawthorne G-Barks. Shout out to Bear. I think the winner yesterday as well and I didn't read it on air, so apologies there, Bear, I really should have got through that. Morning Gano, I thought Ninja Trial better than Angel Capital, your thoughts Chris from Brisbane. We'll touch on that missile stakes. We might go to a little bit of depth there, Pete, in a minute on that, so appreciate that Chris. Can you ask Pete if he's still doing his male modeling as a side gig back in his birthday is very lucrative? - No, I'm too old for that, of Ben cast side. There's younger models that have come through. - Is it like a hand modeling sort of gig? - Yeah, exactly. Hey, Mick, Kear, Kear, to get both your thoughts on Raysix at Rannwick, Durover, also pretty keen for Gator to get on Fireball, cheers, mertz. We'll see what happens there. I believe that's in, that's a whale and truly above my pay grade there. But Pete, Raysix at Rannwick, I'm not sure if you're across this horse at Durover, but Cameron Crockett has this five year of male absolutely flying, is doing, is it? That's stable, in fact. But just bring it up here, 32% they're striking it. Absolutely everyone, I think Cameron did get some of Cody Morgan's horse as well, but he's doing a fine job there. I think $11 about this horse in the benchmark 88 is a fair price. Alicia Collett, really good, jockey inform. I'd imagine this horse, she only improves. So she's got good track form. I think she's there, there are abouts. I really couldn't talk you out of it. It's a pretty high pressure race with the horse like Beast Mode coming up, Pete. Interestingly, interesting jockey choice for Beast Mode in J-Mac. Yeah, yeah. And look, I think probably the other thing to keep in mind as well is that Beast Mode, you'd expect to lead this race from the inside. Well, Durover just gets to basically sit on Beast Mode's back or just trail it and run. Look, I can understand why you'd be appealing or finding that horse appealing there after the last time out, big flushing light late, really good late splits, fastest last 200, 100 of the day. So look, probably it's a really nice map on paper as long as Beast Mode finds a front. That's probably the big query there. But yeah, J-Mac, that is a puzzling jockey selection that happens for a horse that is almost like a pretty one-dimensional leader. So I don't know, not sure what to make of that. I would probably would have thrown a clamor on it and said just a bit ripped. But 61 kilo J-Mac aboard, interesting to see what happens there. See an aggromers on South of India who's a pretty fast horse as well. You might have seen a bit of humans, silly from out wide, Imperial Force, for Mitch and George. So there's plenty of pace there. And I think probably does set up well for Durover. I want to see the best version of Amazing Eagle, [BLANK_AUDIO] beyond basically said, he's impossible to trust. I think it might have had a few issues that might be causing beyond a few headaches back at the stable, amazing Eagles. So interesting enough race there Pete. Plenty of text messages will continue to get through those for sure. But let's work our way through the game plan still a little bit to go. Pete, we spoke about the highlight of the day for you and it'll be race six, it'll be seeing them there, custom. - Yeah, exactly right. Look, I thought race six just profile is a really nice race for her overall, just to confirm what we saw last time out, proved that wasn't a fluke. She might not necessarily get the same tempo here, but really I don't think that matters. She just needs to keep momentum and just produce what she was able to do over the last 400 meters. And like I said before, she's on track to be a black type mayor going forward if she can maintain these numbers. So yeah, I think that's really the highlight for me on a day where you're trying to look through and go, what's the stand-out race here? Not sure there is one, but that's okay. We've got a really nice horse running around otherwise. - Fair enough. I think the highlight up in Sydney will be the missile stakes and a good opportunity to have a quick conversation about that race, Peyton. I almost found this my long division race which we'll get to from you because I really wanted to be with Gangsta Granny and look, she's flying. She's got some really good first up figures. She's clearly a talented animal and you've only got a reference, the 0.5 length second to, I'm not sure if you know, did name of this horse if you've seen her go around autumn glow. - Oh, that lasts. - Yeah, last spring. So she fires fresh. She's only had the one trial. That was my only query. I think if she had had two trials here, she'd just be one of the better bets of the day. So the one trial, but then speaking to Adrian bought this morning, fully lit a fair way off peak fitness and just goes around here. I won't imagine that'll be too positive. So you'd imagine the Gangsta Granny can lead Timmy Clark aboard and you've got way to the stars from out wide. Was 1100 meters on speed, but they didn't necessarily go really fast clips. So you'd imagine Gangsta Granny can lead with TC aboard and that poses quite a few question marks because the nearest danger is in a small field as far as the market's concerned, Angel Capital, Ninja and Napoleon, they're all gonna settle out the back as far as my speed map was concerned. Pete, what would your speed map look like? - Yeah, I would have quite similar to that. Obviously the concern with Angel Capital as well was he just really wasn't very good first up last preparation. I know going back to Prepsy, one first up at the Valley, in fact he completely dropped kick that field. But first up last prep, I know it was in a field behind Jolly Star and so forth, but he didn't really seem to travel, it really felt like he needed that run and then he got going towards his prep. But I guess he's a horse that last preparation they were targeting, the new market there second up and then they had a crack at the William Reed stakes. This preparation feels a little bit different. So I'm not exactly sure what his trials were like, Gano, but I would want like an absolute, his manager improved, he's gonna be would have raised a little bit more tractable than what we're saying of late because yeah, if he throws his head around and there's not a great deal of speed up front, he could be an absolutely all sorts early. - I think we're gonna take him on. Like a group two, 1200 meters, no real nominated leaders outside of Gangsta Granny, maybe you'll have sure a weight of the stars will come across, but I can't imagine, Mattie Smith is gonna say, I have Rachel King just take on Gangsta Granny at all costs, she'll take the easy option and just sit outside later at a slow tempo. And Angel Capital Group two, his value doesn't increase by winning this race. - No, exactly right. - I think that's a good point. His D-Day, so to speak, will be third up in a group one. - Yep. - So I expect him to run okay and run on well, but I can say the pun is getting burnt, big time here. Ninja was a really flashy trial, we are talking about a horse that got out to a mile, last start off two trials. Really flashy trial, good progressive three-road. Now has to go out here as a four-year-old and take on some of these older horses. What are your thoughts about Ninja? Do you think another horse that might just be a little bit sprukey off that trial? - Yeah, I would be thinking Ninja probably need some really sharp 1200 meter figures here to be competitive, and I'm just not sure that I'm seeing that in the profile just at the moment. So yeah, a little bit difficult to line up against what I would say, Gangsta Granny is more of just a, you know what you're going to get with that horse. A little bit more consistent in that approach. So look, I like your approach there overall. And it would be, I guess, quite telling to see what the market does over the last 15 minutes. We might get a really good indication of exactly what is happening behind the scenes just with maybe one or two of those runners changing position or ordering the market. - It would be interesting, isn't it? Because you know that the J-Mark Waller combination. - Yeah. - We're almost, I wouldn't say regardless of the horse, but in these Saturday races, especially midweek, it's probably a little bit different, but on a Saturday, they're just crunched by the bots and irrespective of almost where the horse is at in this preparation and you saw it last week. But the Waller J-Mark horses were just back there. Regardless of the track pattern, it was like they had no concern for the fact that you couldn't win from, you know, beyond midfield or off fence. They just, they just better and just continue to bet them anyway, Pete. - Yeah, I think that's probably always been the weak spot for some of the robots, hasn't it? Just track pattern if it's against them. They don't really seem to profile that as much as perhaps what you run and gun puns is like myself hanging on a fence might be doing. So yeah, it's always, you know, it's a matter of opinions, isn't it, this game? That's why it works out. That's why we end up going back to the well week in week out. - Let's hope the bots aren't listening. - So it ganked the Granny, we'll end up being my on top selection in the race and the more I sort of look at it and want to sort of, you know, peel the race apart, I think the polyonic, the polyonic is vulnerable first up, 12-meters wide roar and another horse, you know, it goes from three year old to four year old grade here, Pete and you know, granted, did come through the Kings of Smith, which was weight for age, but I don't know, is it fair to say laps, probably, against tougher grades? So what do you, what's your read on the polyonic? - I think he's got the better X factor over the 1200. I still sort of remember, I was on course at the Valley that day where he just really picked up that field and just went right past him, but going back to his numbers, that does look to be a bit of a spike performance. So if you could go back and produce that first up, I think he would go very, very close to winning this, if not actually winning it, but I just don't necessarily trust that we'll see that performance so consistently. Probably another horse, as you said, you know, there's some of these three year olds now in the open grade. You just need to almost see them perform before you can actually trust them to have a bet, but yeah, this race does have a few quirks to it and the map is probably one of them and also some of these younger horses going up into open grade, Ziella. - The long divisions, all of a sudden, turned into a potential bet for gangster granny as you just continue to break it down. I think that's the way that I will definitely play the race. Plenty of text messages for us to get through here, Pete. 04.09, 736, 736, and we'll look to get through those towards the back end here. I want to get your best bet of the day anywhere in the country, of course, it will be at Core Food and you almost can either take a double, which I love to see. - Yeah, I am. Look, I thought obviously we've gone through the key player in race four, we've number one, Davida, and I'll be having something on the one par mange who'll just a bit of coverage there, but I thought probably the other best on the card, H.Y. would come up in the first. This is the old school sort of me talking as well, like I don't typically bet H.Y. anymore, but-- - A model version? - Yeah, well, yeah, exactly, the hand model version. Would find some of these horses that had more scope than the rest of the field, got a barrier switch and now, seemingly getting the H.Y. price and that is race one number five commit. I thought this was a huge flushing light last time out at Sandian. Got back, well and truly too far back on a fast tempo race. Was really good going through the line, that was a heavy track performance as well. So obviously any rain around is not going to be a bother. But now, draw on barrier two, race without too much speed. You've got horses like tough romance, the stable mate and dusty in for lease, the Curian Mars team, but I think from barrier two, commit can just sit on the outside of Richon Bubbles and really with any gap there in the straight, if your source just produces what we saw last time out. And obviously there's a bit of a caveat 'cause we're going from a very fast tempo race to probably what's going to be even at best. But I just thought this race set up so well for commit. So I thought on a card where you're looking for some runners that's really profile, like they're going to improve and you're getting the price, I thought commit in race one number five, that was going to be part of my, my doubles and my trebles. So at the moment, I've got race one number five commit, race four number two, Davida and race six number nine custom who's just sort of anchoring it all together. But I won't be backing custom just straight out. Although you could probably argue $1.75 or so might actually work out to be value, just based on what we're seeing recently. - Yeah, I completely agree with you. And I think if you see any sort of uptick in a rating, so if she comes back and she goes for a new level, which Jack Turnbull suggests she probably could, when we review the meeting, probably would have been happy. We might actually end up being happy with $1.75 we get but I completely agree with you there custom. I think we'll probably start shorter, they'll pay. What would you imagine an SP close to $1.60? - Look, I would have thought so just purely off the numbers. I don't think from memory that was what happened last time. Now she was a little bit soft there. I think she was gantying around that 260 to 70 mark and then she might have firmed in the last 30 seconds. But some of these horses, the market just let you on a little bit late for whatever reason. I would say probably the last sort of 18 to 24 months, the late market's probably never been less accurate. So that's my just general feeling being on course in Victoria. So you get some opportunities sometimes and I wouldn't be put off if a horse like this drifts out towards black figures late. In fact, that's probably gonna be enough to entice me. So anyway, so what happens in the day? - We might embrace it if it happens. I'd say last time though, she'd only one one race for I'd say. A little bit, I thought we'll just let them on here again. Let's see if she's a bit of a pretender but she certainly was not my HWA player. play of the weekend comes at Royal Ramacorn. We're going to get to that right after the break. This is the Gameplay. [MUSIC PLAYING] Join the conversation, Textus, on 04-9-736-736. This is Gideop with Gareth Hall. [MUSIC PLAYING] Welcome back to Gideop. Gideop is brought to you by Bet365. It's never wrong to even support you by Bet365. What is gambling really costing you for free and confidential support, you visit gamblinghoponline.org.au. Plenty of text messages coming in. Pauli Sebastiani is given Corey a red card. So you'll enjoy that Corey away. You go for a while. Nice effort though to appreciate it. Pete, plenty of love for you on the text line as well. So plenty of text messages for us to work through. So looking forward to that. But my best each way play, the horse that I'm keen to back on each way basis. And I'm keen to get your thoughts on this runner as well, Pete, because from a review perspective, you might have something to add. And that is race three number two, Nullabor Jane. She was really good there. She's deep put her preparation. So she's six up now. She's just slightly drier. Dad, not a whole lot drier on the worst side of a good four. But she was really good there at Ramak on the day. Her route was really no advantage to lead it. And she went a really, really fast tempo beating. A horse that was exceptional on the day, we know this horse. You know, well, if you're part of the SCN track family, it was Astronomics. It was ridden by J-Mac, trained by Tommy Chalton and John O'Shea, and owned by one T-Papley. That horse was enormous on the day. But Nullabor Jane, back to the inside, was very, very good in a very, very fast run race, Pete. And that was that was at the winner, Astronomics, one by length, Nullabor Jane, 2.2 lengths back to the third horse. There I thought there was significant merit in that run. Did you, what did you make of her effort there on that day? Yeah, you can say that in her numbers. You really can. There's a slowdown from the 600 to the 400 as well. So what I'd say, suboptimal lead speed. Too fast early, losing that little bit of momentum on the turn, allowing some of those horses settling in behind to just bridge the gap into towards the straight. They're the horses I love seeing. And you're basically finding them. Another cushy map seemingly on paper, really what just has to cross Dusty Bay from the inside. And probably ends up leading this race pretty comfortably. So it gets every chance, has the track and distance numbers. What, round $7.50 or so? Is that the right price? Yeah, that's a great price. That's a great price. I think it's a great price. And clearly the best each way player that I end, I just love these races where you've got a Vista here. Jemart comes through a muscle-broad benchmark 66. And the numbers are good. But it is a muscle-broad benchmark 66. We are going to be back in, you know, a lease midfield, at least, at the very best with this horse. And if James, who can choose to ride these horses, a bit more positive, she might be out of her comfort zone of Vista. And we saw that last week with a couple of horses that James, we love when horses are positive, Peyton, written, you know, a little bit against their pattern, which shown a bit of intent, but sometimes some horses just don't appreciate it. Yeah, exactly right. They're still pack animals at the end of the day and working out where they feel comfortable in the pack. That goes a long way to finding the right result. It certainly does. So hopefully Nullabore Jane there can salute for the punters on an each way basis. Take us through your best Ruffy Pete at the core field, please. Best Ruffy comes up in the last. We'll go to race nine, number six nations call. Now look, changing colors, very, very easy to mark this horse as short as the market based on what she did last time out. But I thought those were most blessed run. I've probably seen in quite a while. Slow tempo race, she basically sat there just tagging the leaders. It's the right part of the Flemington Track to be in on the day. She's got the cleanest run of all time. Can't really knock her off that. Blake shins back on board from barrier two. It gets the right run and transit if he gets the gaps at a right time. Obviously she'll be there about slate. But I don't know if this is going to be as favorable for her, just looking at the speed map and nations call. Three wide no cover there last time out, which is only last week. That was not the right part of the Flemington Track to be. It was a good tempo or good enough tempo race. I just think this is a horse that at his absolute best, he just gives cheek and this seems a really nice map he's drawn directly to the outside of Black Storm. And at what, $26, I'm going to have something on. Very small in a race that I don't really have a great deal of confidence in otherwise. But I thought nations call deserve to be far shorter than what the current market is. Looks like he got two quatties here for us or kick off in the first leg. Usually a good place to do that race number six. Yeah, look, if you're just going short there and the first leg, I think you just go with the nine custom. But if you're having one other runner in your wider quality for a little bit of coverage, throw in the three stylish. So nine in the short quattie, we'll put in three for the wide. Beautiful. Number two race number seven race seven. I'll go five, eight and 10 in the short quattie because it just might be that obvious. But I thought this was an incredibly difficult race. This is my long division race. So in the wide quality, I'm going field. Love it. Yeah, I think anything can win this. This is a horrible, horrible win. That's usually how it works. That's good. To the third leg race number eight. Race eight in the short quattie eight and 13. Again, just trying to trim it down, although it sounds like the 13 bonaface isn't even going to be running at core fields. I'll be coming at core fields. That's one of my bug bears is not having these sources removed before we actually start and go listen to giddy up. Yeah, exactly right. So delete 13 bonaface more than likely. So in the wider legs of the quattie eight, one, 12 and the two as well, detonated jack, I probably have to include that. So that's eight, one, two, 12, assuming 13 bonaface goes to Sydney. We'll be going to Sydney for sure and race number nine. So you've got four horses there for us. Yeah, two, five, six and eight there in race nine to finish the day. So that's LU joining nations called changing colors and five is flying valley drawn barrier one there for crew and master. This is the game plan. I'm going to come back, Pet Anthony. So it's going to give him his doubles, trebles, parlay right after the break. So in the conversation, text us on 04, 9, 736, 736 live across Australia. This is giddy up with garithol. Welcome back to giddy up, McGinnon and the chair, Pete, Anthony, as with you, this is the game plan. And Pete, let's kick us off with your first selection for your parlay, multi doubles, trebles at core field. Everything else going as well. Race one number five. Yeah, exactly. Race one number five commit will be the first leg and I'll then go to race four number two divider and then race six number nine custom. So I'll be doing doubles and the treble for those three runners and just need to even the win. I'll be more than happy if I get one. I probably won't be that happy. But anyway, it's a high standard these days, Gano. No, you do. I'm going to throw in custom as well. Race number again for custom. Pete was it race six number nine custom there. I think she'll win and she's sure, but there's a for the doubles and trebles, of course, stay with me. I haven't just took you $1.70 pop straight out. Then I'm going to take you to round week. Race 10 horse number four Watson and apologies to a couple of the people off the text machine. I haven't been reading out the numbers and the race numbers of the horse this morning, but that is race 10 number four Watson at Royal Round Week. And the horse that we spoke about before race three number two nulla board, Jane at a price race three number two nulla board, Jane. So you can take those three horses custom Watson and nulla board Jane in your parles and away we go. Pete plenty of texts off the garage horse and hand text line, garage horse and hand for all your canine and equine essentials. Happy Thursday men love your work and inside I noticed Eagle farm race. For one star of Jamaica looks a class horse and is recently gelled, which might improve him further. Watch your thoughts. Well Pete, don't stress. I've done this race. I think is very much priced on what he did their last preparation. So if you like what he did last preparation, you think of those two trials. That is from Q stick Q. If you like what he's done with those two trials and think is the improved, I think he can win the race. So probably just leave it at that for star of Jamaica, but it is a competitive race from an awkward sort of draw there, but most definitely a horse with ability or any improvement can get the job done Pete. Make sure a pinion of James Johnston. He's going pretty well. I mean it's hard to argue with him at the moment isn't he? I mean, what is he doing much wrong? He's probably tracking it around 30% on say for his last 50 to 100 rides, which is as good as you're going to get. But obviously we'll see how he goes once the big dogs come back. We're just starting to see if you with them, Damien Lane and Mark Zara pop up for rides here and there. So that's probably going to be the thing. It's one thing winning as a jockey with getting the claim and being able to pick up the CZs right runner secure and Mars team in the middle of winter, but when it starts getting into spring, then we'll find out exactly how good he is with the more competitive seniors. I love you to be out here and I know you're a busy man these days. You won't have time for this, but to reverse engineer the results and see if you remove the claim from him, what that strike rate would be. Yeah, I still think he's doing well. Yeah, exactly because he's very good. He's a very strong, he's, you know, obviously he's pretty slight as they mostly are, but he's very strong in the saddle and I think that's probably the key thing gets the horses and keeps them balanced. And when you're able to do that, you get the best out of the most of the time. So I'm not sure the claims doing a great deal of work there, but losing their claims, one of the hardest parts of being in the apprentice right. So we'll wait and see. All right. Hi guys, I like Stoken Race 3 at Crawford. I also like Gangsta Granny and the missiles. Thoughts please. We've definitely given you our thoughts on Gangsta Granny. Pete Stoken Race 3. How does the other race 3 so hard to map? I mean, look, you've got Stoke from Barrier 2, Blake Shin on board, but then you've got Cavarrie Girl, you've got Bazzar Bill rewarded. Base Mode's also nominated in this race, so wait and see if there's any. mode turns up here or goes to go to the RAN week but there's just plenty of speed and probably whoever finds the lead's going to get first crack and being able to dictate this. Quite often we see multiple leaders on paper, one of them or two of them perhaps actually opt out. So I found it's just an impossible race to map. I thought cavalry girls going really well just based on this preparation and deserves to be favorite but I mean Stoke was just so consistent there last time out it's hard to really knock that that may as form from last preparation. Get a pet you're doing a great job but just to remind you you are on live TV so maybe you can get the makeup artist to run a brush through your hair. With makeup artists? Well all I want to say is he's just lucky he's got hair. If I had hair like Pete I would also let it run free but unfortunately as you can tell these cameras are kind as well. I'm really really struggling so anyway the joys so good on you Pete for having hair. It's a good starting point. Against the granny plenty of fans for against the granny for short. What else we got here off a text line Pete. Morning Pete so I think this has been running very consistent this time in. Cannot win race two at Corefield and do you have a bona fave on topic race seven at Ramwick? That's Tim. Tim I'll take the the Ramwick I definitely do a bona fave right there. I'm happy to take on the favorite there drill. I think you're paying the J Mac tax and any bona fave can win the race. Pete your thoughts on Celtics and we've touched on his horse a couple of times already. Yeah it gets absolutely every chance there on Saturday. I think this is the race but I don't necessarily want to be taking $2.50 or so. I just think this is one of those horses where you just watch should deserve the you know the win so to speak but that doesn't necessarily mean that the horse will win. Has still found one or two just better on so many occasions so I thought this is the right race of Celtics but I don't really want to be taking $2.50 I'll put it that way. Fair fair that's good assessment and every horse has their price beat and that's a challenging thing when you you know I do it as well you rate runners to a price and quite often you back something else and you top rate a runner wins and you are kicking yourself because you know that horse won but you just got to be patient with those prices Pete. Yeah exactly and this is another race with just a couple of emergencies that if they make the field could just mess up the speed map a little bit for a horse like Celtics you've got Jule Bay and Zebra Finch drawn sort of just either side so if they take their part they're all all of a sudden competing for the same spot and run so it's one of those where you'll know more their Saturday morning. Hey Lads thoughts on beautiful Bevy race five at the Heath and a vista at race three at Royal Randwick with Jay Mac I would have touched on a vista race three at Royal Randwick look good figures comes out of a muscle muscle benchmark 66 and was really really impressive and the sectional times back that up the you know wait for age figures back up how good that win was my only query is the speed map here and where the horse is going to settle and I think we're having to pay a bit of that Jay Mac tax and I think Nullabor Jane deserves to be much closer in the market so I'd much prefer back Nullabor Jane the place and have a little bit more on than backing a vista the win Pete your thoughts on beautiful Bevy and race five at Corfield. I should map to get every chance here again what looks a pretty competitive speed map early. We've got Jackson ice beautiful Bevy Nordic Strike you've got Maine Macache or Maine Mancache drawn out a little bit wider this was just a really difficult wide open race I actually wanted to have something just small and the three delicate lady at the price I thought there was genuine excuses last time out lame respiratory issues given the horse three weeks off so expecting going back to previous numbers the delicate lady might be able to run us a race around $17 do understand as bit of trust required but I was looking for this shoot race to just find horses in the three wide line and delicate lady high on the hill they sort of fit the bill there and what's a very open race. Shout out to Garathus or Garathus at the 40 years of nice fella but he's a bit of a jinx come on that's a bit rats of here she's one of the greats G haul all right here we go and when you're walking the track this is Buster he wants to make sure you're wearing a high Viz he's here I can say I may not see but he wants you wear a high Viz Pete so he's looking out for you there is his Buster shout out the Buster appreciate that Jen's tough romance didn't cop the didn't cope Blue Diamond day and his second start what's his chances Saturday race one from Scooter well it looks should get every from the speed map I don't think there's that much speed outside of Dusty and Velis so look has been gilded one first up last prep probably needs to improve ratings overall but we'll get absolutely every chance so I haven't necessarily been through the jumpouts and so forth but that's a later today job just to try and work through and make sure I haven't missed anything but look if you like tough romance you're going to find out and going to get every chance for your money there and race one question here I'm in compete do you have any history or trends on the group to miss out I'd say Pete if you wanted to ask about trends in sort of in regards to races I would be the like the single worst person to ever ask because I'm just a every race on its own merit not really just completely disregard you know history and you know profiles and planning into races and just you know the old what's the old saying every race at a time sort of set up for me yeah yeah exactly I'm with you I don't really focus on historical setups for certain races I think that's history is only relevant when you're actually going back and looking at the results upon review yeah exactly because there's always excuses and so forth you need to take every race on its merits some good winners though rain affair yeah Wado you know gone and come here in one shorts won the race as well so Joey Pride good little record there but I would say this is the strongest miss outstakes we've seen in quite some time a couple more text messages before we wrap up Pete really appreciate your time race seven at Corfield stylish as flying thoughts from Mickey Collins yeah thought stylish look in the same races custom I thought that was the only really logical danger they're obviously coming from a different formula until a lot of those horses down the straight but stylish still just probably is another one of these horses that can run some nice races without necessarily finding the the right result I don't know I thought custom probably had a few links and and that was probably the way that the race is planning out for me probably to retain that that domination going forwards really good question here from Sean with horses on the quick backup do you only back them when they have a pat number shipping if you if they're proven at that pattern previously Sean what I'll say there and people for you could pick it up and give your own version of it I'd say there's certain trainers I think you know someone like Bjorn does it really well so does Richard and Will Friedman they do a quick backup really well so statistically it stacks up and I would definitely like to see a horse proven at the seven day backup before I almost backed it again or at the next time it is so happy to be patient there and I'd say a follow up to that Pete would be rain affected track seven day backup big tick yeah I look I'm just a huge fan the quick backup full stop and two days three days four days so I'm yeah I'm I'm all over it you turn him over every second day if you could oh exactly especially for stares but though I'm always happy to back a horse on the quick backup first time because I don't think there's any way of proving otherwise but certainly if they have a positive record on the quick backup then that just gives me even more confidence and that's that's a proper bonus on my scale shout out to august appreciate the text there again I Pete love your work need a best today fellas DT shirt Wyong cheers from Scott I don't think we have anything for you today Scotty but if you listen to bagger tips snowed out you'll be able to find a winner or two mating call and out of later and I think you've looked there Pete I wouldn't imagine save the dream in Melbourne and best as since out the trailer the best beds each way that's from 839 stylish in race seven Pete last of the day yet we've got to that so mate that's about it done and dusted for the game plan really appreciate your time this morning no worries thanks for having me until next time I come off the bench it's been good fun it's been really good fun and looking forward to working with you again in the near future there he is Peter Anthony's that was the game plan if you missed any of that yeah we do we'll hear it tonight against the dogs possibly stay tuned to Sian let's take a break and we'll come back trial time next thing what league Maddie Morton with their top five trilers

FAQs

The $100 staking plans include Michael Kent Jr.'s $40 each way on Boniface (Race 7, No. 14 at Randwick) and $10 each way on Brazen De Chambot (Race 1, No. 4 at Caulfield), plus other trainers' selections like Bitwitchery, Sensory, Watson, and Midnight Dynamite.

The key player is Davida, Race 4, Number 2 at Caulfield, with a suggestion to also back Palm Angel in the same race.

Pete's D-Day horse is Celtics in Race 2, Number 11, because despite recent strong performances, it keeps finding one or two too good in the straight, making the odds rock bottom. Mick's D-Day horse is Erno at Royal Randwick, as she went close last week and should win soon.

The highlight runner is Custom in Race 6, Number 9 at Caulfield, who showed impressive late splits last start and is on track for black type if she maintains her form.

The shoot starts off the track and joins mid-turn, so horses often end up wide without finding the fence. It can confuse horses and jockeys, but keeping momentum is key, with jockeys like Damien Lane excelling at it.

Gangsta Granny is flying and likely to lead, but her single trial is a query. Angel Capital may need the run and isn't a betting proposition, while Ninja is progressive but faces older horses.
