We are sucked because we've got our third man back in action this week back from a lovely old holiday he had in Japan. Will the bot Alfred joins Nick McGuilter and myself Ben Calluzzi your host tonight. We're looking forward to winter championship day at Flaminton. But I'll start with you first of all mate. How have you been? I'm good. Skip his back. So it's super. The podcast is listenable again. Skip his canyon. Skip your protein. What's happened to him? No, Japan was awesome. I loved it. Food's amazing. Not enough to stay there. We'll maybe one day. Give us a highlight and a light light. Highlight was probably the baseball. I loved the baseball. I went there last time with my mate Tyson and Hamish and I went this time it was. It's just it's so different like I was sitting next to some American block there and. Are you chillin' the fat? Yeah, I'm chillin' the fat. You have a chin work. Sorry. You have a chin work with him. Yeah, I was asking like is is baseball like this in in America is like no way. Like they have a chance for every individual player. It's absolutely mental. Yeah. But it's great fun. And the ladies come around with the BR in the stand. What is it like they've got like a backpack with them? They've got at least full backpack and it's about it to be like 20 to 30 kilos just full beer. And there's like these 50 kilo like little Japanese women walking around. Come like pulling the suspensors out of their back and like pouring beer into your. Is it like self-refrigerated or something? Yeah, but yeah, it comes out cold. It's good stuff. That's incredible. She was about to walk off and butt today. Where are you going? You're saying right? Yeah, I'm just sitting here all day and I'll keep you company. We were on first name basis. Yeah, I'm the bot. I'm going to I'm going to racing podcast back in Melbourne. Any language barrier at all is a pretty pretty good. It's fine. Most people, you know, you can communicate with people pretty easily. Bot can't speak English. So Japanese might have been more fluent for it. Yeah, potentially. Well, you've got good translate, which isn't. But yeah, no, it was lots of fun. I loved it. And they watched the Takarazir Kikinan over there as well. Yeah. In the in the it was called a I think they called wins. And they like the tab vote like that. Essentially like the you know, they like the local things. Better shops. Yeah, like the local betting shops. And you know, like everyone's there. I was sitting there watching it with the Takarazir Kikinan. There was there was about probably. There would have been like a hundred maybe 200 people in this shop just screaming at the TV. It was mental. They absolutely sick for it. And I loved it. And what about what was one thing that you didn't enjoy about the country or about the holiday in it in its whole? Oh, I don't know. It was hot. I don't like hot weather. I was missing Melbourne's weather. You got to go back in the snow season. Set set no bloke ever. I was bit missing Melbourne's weather. I was missing Melbourne's. I loved the Melbourne. I loved Melbourne's. I loved Melbourne's. That's in the basement. Yeah. I don't mind either because I have a head. I'm a bad sweater. Yeah. I don't mind. You didn't have us all the time. Oh, please. You're calling me, no. You're coming here. The fans are already ready for you. Make up. Snorke. Snorke. You need to have three skirmishes just to be in good form for this podcast. Yeah. Well, it's no your strengths. And Bot's got butterflies. You can visually see them coming out of your stomach. No, I'm sweating. Nico is a deer in headlights. I'm completely fine. I'm good. Very bright in here though. Isn't it? No, it's fun. I've been looking forward to this. The similar lights that you get the high beams on your car. Coying, rising is going to win this race here at Hong Kong. Coying it. Oh, sorry. Coying attack. Same colors. All right. Beautiful. Yeah. Let's, before we do that, I have something for you both. Oh, yeah. Mr. Preson. Yeah. Is there awesome presence? Hold on. Was it a katana? Look at that. Take that. Oh, fuck. Pick it up. Here we go. They're racing cards. Racing cards. Or, can this just May show Tabri on the front of the one? Yeah. And Goldships. Is it Goldship? Yeah. That's May show Tabri's dad. Yeah. All right. And May show Tabri won the Takarazuka Kinon once again. Who did I get? What's the dashy? The White Horse. Oh, the White Horse. You beauty. Thanks, Pot. Yeah, because they're in 7/11s in this family mart's over there. So, oh, and it comes with like a little-- They come with a little waffle. Little vanilla wafer sort of snack. What's up? Oh, I've got here. Try and pronounce it. Snacky armour faster. Oh, that sounds familiar. I've never heard of this. Reddened by Shibata Yoshitomo. Fluening Japanese. Obviously, Nico. Yeah. I've all colors. I've got the good end of the straw here with Sadashi. Yeah, you've got the actual-- That's a beauty. Thanks, Pot. All right. Thanks, Pot. Some nice Japanese wafers. And I have the wafers cards. Is it good? Whatever you want. Well, also, I got in here. A little sticker. May. You can't be eating them. Who knows what they're on the microphone. Watch me. Anyway. There are two wafers. Let's get to Matt is more at hand. Big news dropping today. Across racing Victoria. That's Anthony and Sam Freeman have been handed. Just a 28 day ban. Just A is just a-- He's just-- He's pointing this. For administering a horse or the stable staff administered a horse-- For the race day. A race-- A substance on a race day, which you can't have any treatment of a horse on a race day. The substance wasn't a banned substance outside of race day. So that is important to note. It's not-- it's nothing sinister. What they don't-- So this makes you really wonder why? Well, it's potentially a staff mistake. That's what you want to believe. Do you want to buy that? I don't know. I don't know. That's it on the fence. Do you want to buy that or not? Have an opinion. I'm going to say-- No, I'm going to say it was a mistake. Yeah. Okay. I think I'll say it probably wasn't. Okay, that's fair enough. You're allowed your opinion. Everyone is. The fact that it's not a banned substance outside race day means the charge was never going to be as significant like getting rubbed out for a long time. But the rule states-- and rules are rules. Amanda Tories-- Tories are made to be broken. Amanda Tories. Six month ban for any horse that is administered a race day treatment. So five months short. They've got off extremely light. Look, this is nothing-- this is nothing personal. John O'Shaegis like this. I've got nothing in the way of the stable. Sam's a body terrific bloke. It's not about the good bloke policy. It's not about that. It's not about that. It's the fact that the stewards have gone back on the rules and they are treating this-- they're treating a big stable with special treatment. You're not telling me the stewards are making up the rules as they go to suit themselves, are you Ben? That's exactly what I'm telling you. Shock horror. In a sport where integrity is just about the most important thing, they've come out and said, this is not actually a precedent going forward. They've-- they've-- It's an outlier at their discretion. They had an early guilty plea. They've abided and been cooperative with us. So we're going to give them just four weeks. So if-- so let's just say when the police haul in someone who's suspected for serious crimes, if they are helpful with the case, we're just going to start listening every penalty that we give to someone who's done the wrong thing. Broken the rules, broken the law. The fact that it's stated as a mandatory six month ban and they're only giving them four weeks, you know the other thing that is-- It seems like a piss take to me. I agree. It's six months. Wow. Yeah, no, no. It's usually six months. It's just some context. John O'Shea has been given six months for-- hurting someone's feelings. - Yeah, for swearing out the officials or whatever. - Throw up. - It doesn't sit well with a lot of people. What's happened to you? - Shouldn't, and they're getting special treatment because it's a massive stable. There are so many horses that they did the challenge. - Because they're last names. - Well, but it's just the, well, they, the stewards admitted, or in the Betsy article, it did say that, the implications, which we're gonna be massive, these horses need to be moved on, staff are gonna be out of job for certain time. They've taken that into consideration, which you can't really do. - Sure not. - It's when rules are rules, those little things that collateral damage can't really be taken into consideration. - They didn't give a shit about Darren Wears long staffing. - I think we need to be careful a little bit because as I said, this situation is not as sinister as some things that have happened in the past. - I'm not saying that the Darren Wears situation and the Sam Friedman situation is the same thing, but you can't bring in the size of the business and the operation. Because Darren Wears had one of the biggest stables in the country, if not the biggest, so that should not come into things. That is completely irrelevant. - And they've gone on to say this is, this should not be seen as a precedent moving forward and other stables are on watch, which they're basically admitting, we're giving them special treatment, but if this happens again to a smaller stable, you're gonna cop six months. - Well, if you're a smaller stable and you get done for doing the wrong thing, you just take this to every entity degree and you fight this in a court of law beyond racing Victoria, and you have to get your case matched with theirs as far as I'm concerned. - You know the other thing that is mightily convening about this situation? What's today? The first of July? When does the racing season finish? In exactly four weeks' time. One month's time. So they get to start a fresh the new season with these horses back in their names. As I said, this is nothing personal. It's nothing against the stable. I think a mistake has been made. - Sam leaves now to be good enough to make it to the yacht with Zara and Jamie. - Yeah, he can go over, hold a you beauty. But if you're a smaller stable when you're viewing this situation from the outside, you're thinking this is absolute bollocks. - It is. It's absolutely bullshit. Yeah. Anything else? Craig Froggy knew it, found himself in trouble. - Just when you think that racing can't make itself look any more stupid, you say what happened with today with Froggy? For those that haven't looked, look on social media. Obviously school holidays. Froggy wanted to bring one of his little tadpoles with him in the races. And the stewards have informed him that he wasn't able to bring his young fellow in the races who was going to be his valet for the day. All because of what? Because he didn't have a land yard and a, you know, something hanging around his neck to say that he was certified to be in the jockey rooms. Like, come on. - Yeah. - Racing has a way of shooting itself in the foot. And this is another way. Just another example. - Yeah. - Plenty of people commenting on that pose. - It's a middle of winter for God's sake. He's young fellow. - Just let the kid in. - Was there to be with his dad help his dad out? Froggy only had a few rides for the day. Is it really that deep? - No, it's not. There would have been some idiot on the door with these bad, who wanted to be a hero. And look what's happened for what? To make you look even more stupid than you need to be. - Yeah, it stinks a little bit. I mean, a little bit. It stinks a lot. It's ridiculous. - There were some people commenting on that tweet just saying, oh, this is how I actually got into racing. Going to the racing with my dad, coming in the jockey's room, meeting him. You know what? We are struggling for apprentice male jockeys at the moment. They are all famous. - But even if he doesn't want to be an apprentice rider, like just young wokes in sport. - Yeah, yeah, should be encouraged. Not discouraged. - We need more people of our age demographic coming through racing. It's not a sport of old people like it used to be. This can't possibly help, no matter which way you cut it. - Yep. The other big news was Terry Bailey, no longer working at rations.com, but a sad day for yourself. - Very sad day. - What about the great man, did you love so much? - He's hilarious. - He's hilarious. He's funny. Like, you start there on Tuesday, just, you know, Tuesdays will not be the same. - Yeah. - I mean, I don't want to. - Well, firstly, a huge congratulations to TBA on an excellent career. - Watch his space. - I'm sure he'll be listening. We might get him on the podcast. - We'll do our best. - Betsy have already started doing some stuff with him after dropping that bombshell of an article. - But was this hitting confirmed sense? - No, it was awesome. - It just to be a fly on the wall the other day. - Well, you can vouch for it. You were there with him on the couch, I'm sure you did. - It was great. - What a privilege. - It was great. He went off in a classy manner as well. I thought he might have thrown a few daggers at the end, but he better rather me. One day exiting the sphere. - Exiting where? - No, I leave here. - Oh yeah. - Not here, unless it's an Enzel of that stuff. - You're gonna go off at Jim's Mowing. (laughing) - Don't worry, something. - Coming for Jim's head. - No, it was awesome just to be a fly on the wall the other day for TBS last day in the host chair. Clean Hutchison was on the form and TBS was hosting and we went down memory lane and I pretty much just sat there and tried to only speak when spoken to and just doing your best. - Yeah, well, it was just fun to sort of appreciate what TBS done and one thing that you really look up to TBS as someone upcoming in racing media is just the fact that he always spoke his mind. - Yeah. - Spades of spade. - Cool, it has a nice-- - It's like me. - Yep. - Before you're a little bit more-- - Try to be Mike D'Rogue-Tree. - You're a little bit more derogatory than TBS. - Yeah, but racing needs personalities. - Yeah, it does. - If you wanna listen to plain Jane Bullshit, go somewhere else. And I think that's what makes TBS good and I'm not pumped for my own ties here, but people like listening to people that aren't vanilla because the world is very vanilla nowadays and it's not nice. Like the world's meant to be fun and you listen to certain things and certain people that are a certain way for certain reasons and it's just not how people engage in racing. It can be boring, like-- - Go go broker, go broker, reckon. - Well, yeah. - Bit of that. - There is a bit of that in the world and people are afraid to say something how they really feel or call something out as they really say because this guy, they're gonna offend anyone. I don't ever hold back on an opinion that I have and I'm not trying to boost myself up here, but-- - That's twice you said it. - People like-- - People like-- - People like-- - No, but people like hearing that. People like hearing something that's unfiltered and is direct to the point because there's not enough of that in the world anymore and the world is definitely a worse place for it. - Yep, no, I would probably agree with that in a roundabout way. - If you are joining us for the first time, the three of us are very different and it's good to have Will back in the studio. Will's probably more of the brain's trust and he likes to have-- He'll have a bet on a benchmark 64 midweek, or whereas Niko and I probably, we save our pennies a little bit more for the spring. So it is good to have Will back and let's get stuck into this flameting card where-- - To be fair, bot had a tough day on the synth, yes, though. It should have been an alarm card job. My first bet back from in Australia was a horse called-- - Yeah, that Donald Duck thing didn't work. - No, no, it was brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. - Mr. Stark was doing-- - What did you and Matt Welsh actually say in this one? 'Cause it was coming off the biggest duck egg. - A path from pretty colors. - Now what did you say in this horse? - The market had done some things with it in the past. - Was it at 26 to 1 yesterday? - It was yesterday, yeah. - Yeah, and it missed by nose and it was about 20 metres in front of the rest of the field and five metres past the post. But I don't address anyway. All we're on Saturday then. - Hopefully, I should mention this podcast is sponsored by bet365 Australia and we are very happy to have them sponsoring us and they've got a couple good promotions this Saturday. One of those is racers 1 to 4. This is our winnings plus boost, 25%. It'll be at Flunton, Rose Hill and the sunshine coast across three tracks. You can use it on the win or play sods and it's an absolute fill up. - Okay, I know you and I love it. - Yeah, absolutely. - $2.60, you can boost up the $3. - Tell me in it. - But can't wait to get involved. - Yeah, absolutely. (laughing) - But, that'll be fun. - Flunton's in Rayal True. It's a soft seven at the moment. I don't know why I bother asking you about track conditions because you don't never give me too much. But what, do you have any thoughts in your mind? There is a little bit of rain over the next couple of days. - Yeah. - There is. - I reckon it'll stay around the soft seven mark. - Yeah, it won't get any dry on, so sure. Probably a seven or eight, I think. - Yeah, it's what we're working with. But the rail's in the true at Flunton, typically that is a perfect scenario to be betting on. And it's finals day at Flunton. So it'll be an excellent day's way during on Saturday. - Yeah, yep. - And I love to hear that. Yeah, obviously with any soft track, Rayal True at Flunton, I think they'll start on the rail the first couple races, especially two year olds can sometimes come down the straight close to the fence, but then our reckon will start to edge off the fence as we get later and later into the day. Let's start with race one. It is for the two year olds, and it is the sprinter series final over 1200 metres and stars of Dom and the rest of the day. has been really well supported. It's now even money, the Lindsay Park Filly. Lindsay Park over the one two here with Resolutely $3.50 has been a slight drifter. Vivid Storm carries the top weight at $6.00. One day at a time returns here also $6.00 and they are our chances. But I know you haven't had a good look at this race. Stars of Dom, it's probably the one to beat. We've the race fitness on its side, gets the tongue tie on which suggests maybe it choked down last up, but even money getting a little bit tight. I thought that just obviously have a good opinion of that horse and boobahoo one while I was gone. But I agree, $2 seems short. Resolutely was beaten by guesthouse on day boo, that rating is good, that's a good rating. I'd have thought it would be the one to the market would win anyway early, would latch itself on too. But I'm surprised. I have no opinion these aren't my sorts of races at all, but I don't want a bad knit at all. But I'm a little bit surprised by the way that the stars of Dom is favour. I'm in bet number six, Super Will. Super Will, 41. There's also a Super Live. I'd back it one day later. Super Live, or something? Yeah, I think Super Live might be a little bit more talented than this two-year-old. Resolutely, if my arm was twisted if I was forced to have a bet, it's got to be on Resolutely. You'd speak of the guesthouse formline, obviously guesthouse has gone on with it and done better things since then, but it's almost run second to the golden Super win on day boo. That's as cut and dry as you get it. That's like, when you say it like that, why is he not your favourite? She's free fillies. There is a bit of a residency bias. She laid in there. She actually pulled up with some lacerations. It was a high rating. And the form out of that has been outstanding. The third horse, leopard shark, is one twice, since then. Guesthouse has obviously gone on to do what he's done. I just think she is the fresh blood on the scene. She jumped out okay. My little knock is a soft six track. How well did she get through that wet track in the jump out? You can probably speculate a little bit, but at even money, the favourite and $3.50 for Resolutely, you get better than $4 with the 25% winnings plus boost. And the winkers go on. I'm happy to have something on Resolutely. Also, I mean, again, I don't really have an opinion, but it is interesting that, you know, I mean Craig Williams would get the stable's elect and he rides styles of dom, which is, you know, that maybe that hints to styles of dom being the pick of the two from the stable, but nonetheless, they can get it wrong. We've seen that before. Yeah. They can. Let's be on to race two. It's a tar drossy series final 16 hundred metres. Yeah, again, for the two year olds, we've seen some decent old horses come through this. Star of massaging $3.40 from my wooba $3.60. The favourite's been a bit of a drift. Fontaine Jewel, this is the top weight draws Barry I want. It's been 4.40 into $4. And co-pung young is $7. Firstly, but when you get your quick opinion on the top weight and Fontaine Jewel, I backed it last time. It was a very good winner. But 59 kilos now, it is starting to creep up in the way. It's a little bit. Yeah, it was wide at Philominton. One, well, I just don't think that race rated particularly well at all. They went really fast and sort of fell on their heap a little bit. It wasn't, you know, they were warranted to be slow, but they were very slow late and the rating isn't particularly good. So, well, it was very slow over all time at Rose Hill. He finished very quickly and he provides that different form line. And I think he will be ridden positively from an inside barrier. I think the mile is no issue at all. I think that he's very clearly the bit. I think he's a 3.40 chance and I'd prefer to be a bit, as good as Fontaine Jewel was last time through wide fast pace. All of that for sure 100%, but I just think that I think it's a $5 chance and then star of mass and I don't understand why it's favorite at all to be honest. I had a third pick. Yeah, Frankl's world is a little bit interesting. I'd maybe even consider having something on Frankl's world too because it's, you know, the Pachanum synthetic form, it is the synthetic and it was saying, it's a good track. There's Pachanum synthetic and I wouldn't discount it and that rating stands up. So, I probably have something on Frankl's world too. Yeah, I looked at this race and I wanted to be a game star of mass and as well. You look at the start of this horse's last three rounds and it's been missing the start, which is just not ideal. They say early pace, early talent. That's not exactly the saying. What's the saying? No pace, no talent. No pace, no talent. This horse has just been bungling the start and it's had three career starts and it's sort of been a length or two slow on each one of them. It was a good tempo against Fontaine Jewel last time and I think perhaps was flattered a little bit by just being doing no work early and then coming home when all the others were starting to get this stitch. Fontaine Jewel was good there but I've got a little question mark on whether he will run out of strong 1600 meters. He was sort of getting on tide lakes late despite having a bit of a tough run and I agree with Will, I'm going to have my Uber on top $3.60 and that'll be my bet. Nicola, any thoughts? Pass. All right, we move on to race three. It is the Laelani Series final over 1400 meters and we've got a few horses that are clushing swords yet again. Dutch SZU $3.40. I think she's ninth up for the preparation. She hasn't had a proper spell since March. Stylish $4.40 bit of a drift out from $4.45.50 gets a nice map from Barrier 1 and Miss Aria $5.50 as well. Interesting race here, but are you with the Dutch SZU stylish Miss Aria Form on or do you think fans of why coming through the gold tow bars could do something now? Neither, really. I thought that Dutch SZU deserved to be favourite in the race. You know, ran a really good rating too back in the market expected to do the same last start. Didn't quite run to that level but I thought fans of FI was wired at Swan Hill in the gold tow bars. Third up, 1400 meters is its best trip. It's one really well over this course and distance previously. You'd think it'd lead either have its second favourite. The horse, the few horses that interest me, the Ennis Dream, who I've always had some time for as a mayor, ran really well at Murray Bridge fast closing sectionals and has run to the level of form required to win at a race like this. And also Barbies Dream, who was well supported in the market to beat Cain Chair, who's been a stalwart in these sort of Saturdays recently and in that sort of grade and it was supported to beat it. Didn't run very well but up to 400 meters is the horse that can run well and gets Stamie Malam in the saddle. So, it wasn't too interest me but I'm not no one, you know, no urgency to bet at all. Now, I was with stylish last time. I thought her win was very good. It's funny, you go, oh, she's drawing Barrier 10 here, it's not ideal but she actually drew Barrier 10 last time. She's slotted in the one one and she was too good for Duchess Sue and Miss Aria getting a weight swing on the favourite. Duchess Sue, I think she is a deserved favourite but she is like how long can she stay up? If there's going to be a camp to do it, it is Kieran Mar, but she has been up a long time. She's going to map better going from Barrier 13 to Barrier 4. It is worth noting that in a lot of these races on finals, apprentices aren't able to use their claim. So, James Johnson usually claims 3, can't claim anything at all and that's why my on top selection would be stylish again. I think they might still be a little bit more into the bonnet to come third up and that improvement just has me leaning her way over some of the others in the market. Nicka? I sort of wanted to be with Duchess Sue, I thought sort of last time was sort of saltwatered enough for the gap in between runs. I think James on, although he can't claim in this race, I think 56 and a half, is still good, just draws better this time, was 13 last time into 4 this time, looks like to get a much better run and I think that could be the difference between winning and losing. So, yeah, obviously as you alluded to, it's been up a long time but with Kieramai you sort of just trust that he's got them right and yeah let's type Duchess Sue, it goes a little bit better than good water. Let's type. Fancy fire also does map to get a relatively young contested. I mean there will be some sort of pressure but I think it leads quite easily from barrier 1. Miss Aria came across and put a bit of pressure on Duchess Sue last time, I wonder what Craig does from there but yeah, interesting race. There's a chance that Duchess Sue takes a bit of a hold and Fancy fire goes up and gets annoyed by Miss Aria. Race 4 is the Mahogany Challenge final and G we're up and about here because we think we've found a little bit of value. 2500 meter race for our 3 year olds and King's reflection is our $3.20 favorite. Surprise me a little bit by how short he was, he's $3.00 out to $3.20 from Decalogue, the top up weight 440 into $4. He's got a lump a lot of weight. He's got to do it from the wide barrier. Rain sun has been 11s into 9s today. Brilliant test are also $9 and sun sprite $9 as well. Engine of war is there at $11, but we believe not going here because the Sydney. Ghost of Sydney. Okay. So, but we start with these two favorites. Kings reflection and deck of log. Kings reflection was finishing on fast last time, but deck of log still put four links on him. What do you make of that? Yeah, well, that race was awfully slow. But you couldn't really take anything away from Kings reflection at all. You didn't lose anything for being beaten and obviously gets the way swing. Deck of log will go four from barrier 18. There's not a lot of speed here as well. So, barrier 18 really isn't much of a deal. I just think you're coming after your spots as well after. For sure. And he's coming out. He carries 60. I just think he's under the odds at the price of years. I'm the horse that I'm very can and both of you are as well. He's reign son, who made a looping run. He's had three starts at Krabbed Med, looping run to beat Nihako Fraud, who came out today and bolted in the sand. And obviously he improved drastically off that. But that rating I think really stands up against some of these horses here. And Lippmann Locking, I'm off his riding exceptionally well. I'm at market six dollars and I expect it to firm considerably throughout betting. And yeah, I do think he's a favorite and then I've deck of log second and then reign son. But I think reign son, you have to be on. And the other horse I'd probably almost have something on as well. The sun sprite who did start favorite over deck of log last start at Randwick, 28 days between runs. It was a slow pace there so you can't take anything away from the way it finished. Just that little SP angle is a little bit interesting to me. Yeah. Niko, you like reign son as well. This horse has got stale written all over him, doesn't it? Yeah, he absolutely does. Obviously, the step to 25 hundred for this sun of the autumn sun should be absolutely ideal. He grows up on the rise. Handles reign effect are going. We'll settle in a good spot and be strong late down the middle. I thought it was a great bet. And then we'll see spoke earlier today and bottle line and good things usually happen when bought nine lines. So very bad things usually. Thanks for too soon. I, well, it won't be if it won't be because bot night line that this horse gets beat. But yeah, I thought $12 was a very good bet earlier today, trimmed in a little bit. And I think it will continue to trim in the closer we get to race time. I do want to have something on King's reflection, but I would sort of want north of $4. I think you'll get better whether we're going to get north of $4 or not is yet to be seen. But we're winnings boost. Yes. Rain sun is a phenomenal bet. One by three. And is my best value bet of the day. Beautiful. Yeah, he's the only bet I've had so far. It took $11 for rain sun. Heavy nine treacherous conditions that you're long. He bolted in over 1700 meters. And then off a slow tempo, 2000 meters. Last time, big late splits. You've already touched on the form line in the Arco fraud. So it's a bet. Decalogue is one of mine. He's one three in a row. He's just a winner. I know he's got the 16 inch draw and wide. But the last time I took on the class runner in the Mahogany Series Challenge Final, he'll go. 2023. I'll never let you go. I'll never let it go. I post it on Twitter. You can still find it. Hero. I wanted to lay. It'll take you about 12 months to find it. I wanted to lay. I wanted to lay first the more able place. And he absolutely bolted in with 60 kilos and he paid $6. So that was just one of the biggest mudded dirt and face jobs. He took a turn post. He won a couple races. Yeah, he was like even money didn't work. No, not even money. He was short to win the ball. He was up in Corfield Cup, really. Yeah. There was a bit of hype for him after that. But yeah, he never really went on with it. Anyway, I do think deck log is the best horse in this race. I may save on him. But I already mentioned Sun Sprite coming through that deck log form one last time. I'm really, I'm getting a bit of a weight swing there and was finishing off well. The other one I want to give mention to is brilliant. He's a. This horse has already ticked the 2400 meter box. Just smashed them at Bendigo. I know the rating isn't strong there. But it's hard to rate up in a benchmark 62 at Bendigo over a mile and a half. And if you just look at the final 400 meter split, it's gone six above the class average for that final 400 meter. So just monstrous late charge there and patty pain is the man you want to find over this winter period. Another cool thing that I want to quickly mention is Breednet. Have a new feature where they put it up the wet track size and which size has. As far as bought hill though, which size progeny have the highest winning strike rate on wet tracks and Castle Vecchio is right at the top. So that's an interesting one you can go and check out. We're making the six. Looks like a bit of a squib to me. The six. Let me go down the page. What? It's Kalizzi. Oh, Kalizzi. Kalizzi. You finally broke his maiden two back. Were you on? I had a small bet. Sick. But yeah, let's not talk about Kalizzi too much. My man on top, Neil. All right, let's speed up a little bit here. Our Sense Anilane Sprint Series Final, 1200 meters, lose some, win more. $3.50 from the Birdrack $4.60 and $1.50, Rawlin's in your $7.00 and Samango $10. If that wasn't a name of a horse, I would not be able to say it on a podcast. But would you make if that last start, the Birdrack got the chocolates there? It's got to go up four kilos at the weights now. Yeah, I think. I do think that the Birdrack, Wally won, I think he's better at 12. So I wouldn't be, I don't think it's out of the question that he improves again off on that. I marked him favorit slightly over, lose some, win more. But again, throughout the day, it's just like, can't get these favorites as short as, you know, it's a theme. I don't know. I just can't get these two as short as the market does currently. Maybe that'll, maybe that'll correct itself or correct itself. I'd change as the, as, as, just such a small field though, so the percentage has to go somewhere. Yeah. No, no. I just, I liked Samango in this. I, the pace was sort of average, settled with Lars, got a long way back and she, she really ripped home in some fast closing sections. I think at her absolute best, she's more than competitive and erased like this and there was, there were signs there last start that she, she absolutely is capable of reaching the heights that she did, maybe two preparations ago. So, yeah, other than that, I'll be cheering on Moby Dick for Tyson Adrian. Yep, good luck, Tyson Adrian. Um, G, Samango, such a bot bet. Just bludge, bludge out the back, finish off in good sections. Well, that's the thing as well. She can, she can put herself on pace. She won a load of races by putting herself on speed. And I don't know why they, like, they were so far off the speed there last time and there's absolutely no reason for, you know, maybe they did that first up and you want to run the rust off. Um, last time she won and looked like an actual horse was the hashtag play at day. She won that day and she, I backed her on the famous play at day, I backed her on the deck. I don't know. Hmm. Do you have an Abedie in your car? Absolutely not. Vest ass is with new connections here. Oh, yeah. Blink is first time as well. Kia, Kia ora and, uh, well, we, we, we was with Freibin's and now obviously after what's happening. Investors, investors go to make Donald, yeah. Yeah, clean McDonald. Now it's with, um, it's changed ownership and try and, uh, it's talented feel. I just, I just can't work that horse out like I had a good year. She ran to the first up last, uh, last preparation of she's bullet proofing, can she be right in this race? Yeah. I mean, I, I backed her pretty strongly in the how now stakes last time I was, was pretty keen on her and she just, um, she's just in the way to get back on. Yeah. I think she is. She's a watcher on her. Um, maybe Dick likes soft trucks, so that gives the boys some chance. Better over 12 as well. And dollar actually has a good first up record. Two from three. You thought he's recent jump out was very good. Um, 58 kilos is fine for him. If, um, yeah, he just gets a good set up here. 1200 meters flamings and if we get better than five, five, five 50, I might have to have something on him. Does tease a bit. He does a bit, but he's been a, he's been a solid horse. He's probably better at 400. He's a great horse to own, but he's a bit, uh, he's an interesting horse because I, I always thought he was a mile up, but they, um, switched him to 12 down the straight. He sprints well fresh. Yeah, and he, yeah, he does. I think he, he's just a turn of football. He sprints really, really well, but, you know, put him in a bit of pressure in it. I don't think he quite appreciates it. The last start in the, uh, against Jigsaw, he was hammered to be started to all. No, that was one of the, um, one of the, you started favorite over Jigsaw. One of the more interesting SPs, um, ever. Well, it breaks at times anyway. That's, um, out there. Yeah. I don't think Luson win more appreciated a heavy track last day though. I think he would have, he would like getting back on somewhat firmer footing. I didn't think that was going to be firmer. I was going to be either. Well, who knows? What is, forking had the track sped last time? Seven point five. So that's pretty heavy. It's going to be no better than that on the week. Yeah, I, I, I, I, I thought it'd be, I think that's the knock with Luson win more. I think if it was a train to know it and it's going to be raining post sort of of lunch time the next two days. - Draw a track on Bolly Mark in favor. All right, let's move on to race six. I don't have too much here. It's the Banger Paterson Series final, 2600 meters, the Western Front 460, wads six into $5.50. Vegas Jack, this horse just keeps winning. It's one for and a row. It's $7 and core, $9 into $7.50. It was a big last start winner as well. And Harlem Blaze, it's been a-- - Anyway, like the wet. - He hasn't been appreciating, he hasn't been appreciating getting such big weights in those hurdle races, but he started a little-- - I think he started to level out a little bit. We saw this with what was the good horse in the series. Very elegant brother. - Johnny Leak-Jones, forget his name. Castro. - No, it doesn't matter. - Anyway, this happens a lot in jumps racing. The horses, it's not often a horse can get to its mark and keep on winning. Horses like Sontaboy and those types that once they get to their jumping division and they reach the top of the weights, they usually start bowing out. And I think that's exactly what's happening with Harlem Blaze. It doesn't exactly like wet tracks. And now he's probably reached his mark. Now where there's horses that are better talented than him that carry less weight, that's just exactly what happens. - Do you remember the first week of the podcast in here? And I was keen as on wads at Movelville? - Well, it might have been the first week in here or the last week that we did. - You might have to follow up this week 'cause he's got 53 kilos. Good have a heavy track. - No, I didn't follow up. I didn't realize he was running at Movelville the other week. He paid $8 on a heavy track. - I see you earlier. - On a heavy track in a benchmark, 78. - How did that happen? - Bolted in. - So you started a shorter price than the one we got. (laughs) - Wild. - That's insane. - It killed me. - It killed me looking at that. But do you have any thoughts on this race? - Yeah, I 100% you have to back virtual circle. (laughs) - It's an absolute. - You are so stupid. - I just suck off a paint. - I just I back virtual circle every start because he's so capable of doing a number that would just absolutely blow these out of the park. But it just doesn't happen very often. So I was three from 28. - I hope Captain Electric scratches and goes to the mate and hurdle at cast. - Can you still talk about jumps racing? It's Banjo Patterson day. - Yeah, well there's a horse in this race that I hope scratches because it will win another race. So I'm just giving the punters. - We need to give the Banjo Patterson series final. - No we don't. - Absolutely we do. - There are a bunch of horses that wouldn't win a mate. - I thought virtual, I always think virtual circle is over the odds and I back this horse a thousand times and it's cost me a load of money. - It's gonna continue to do this. - Better, I love it. And when you win this one day, it's gonna be so rewarding and. - Virtual circle. - It'll all be worth it. - Virtual circle's career peaked when you run second to Barclay Square and then second to Major Biel in the Darby. - You know which race is gonna win day. The Zoomy Stakes in the Paddock. - Yeah, maybe. - That's probably the worst to sit training just like. - Maybe a maiden hurdle. - No, we would ever win that. - With all due respect, that to not go to that Darby after running third to Pericles and Barclay Square in that vise is probably one of the worst training sessions of all time. - You should be. - He would have just won the Darby. - I think we've got to provide bots of being a racing manager for the month. - I've got to let for some auto winning in 2023 ago and bots got to let that go. This is the podcast where we express our feelings and we let it all go in the car. Race seven is something like that. Winter championship series final over a mile and this is the day's feature. It's worth a bit of cash as well. Oh, Drew could $2.90 in from $3.20 in favour from Electric Impulse 650. Jimmy the Bear, well, when you think of Winter Warriors, Jimmy's right near the top. He's six dollars out to seven dollars. See for $7.00, you should have been winning machine this prep and fine future. He's $13.00. Whole lots is also worth mentioning. $16.00, run third in the main lead up. But when I look at our Drew car, there's nothing fancy about this horse. He doesn't run crazy late splits or anything but you look at his record. He's 21 starts for eight wins and eight second placings. His ratings are very consistent. He settles on the speed. There's a lot to like. For sure, he's a horse that I've struggled to get right because he's a horse that doesn't. You know, when you might run a number and you sort of peg him at that number and then you do, I think, this horse based on what he did in that certain run. Do I think he can elevate? Was there anything suggesting that he could? And there's absolutely nothing that suggests that he can, but he just does. He goes to that next level and, you know, as you said, he puts himself in a favourable position all the time and. To the ice past time. You're not exactly wanting to back him. He was pretty plain last time. He didn't really let down. I can give. He was beaten less than. He was beaten to nose, wasn't he? He was. He was beaten to short margin. He looked a little bit tired late. I can give some context to why that might have happened. He was 40 days between runs. I think that was. He did sit on a. You're not telling me they would just have a run to peg him for all those days. And the fact he now meets C4. Cheeki Patty. A kilo and a half better off at the weights. It's Clayton Douglas, actually. Frevens. What was? Yeah, it's Dougie now. In name and. I was talking about Jimmy. Oh, Jimmy. Yeah. I'm talking about Jimmy. I'm talking about. Sorry, sorry. We're talking about different horses. I'm talking about Al Jouca. Al Jouca is the horse that I want to be with. I want to get better than $2.90, but I just think he ticks so many boxes here for a horse that should be favourite. And I think you deserve his place at the top of Benning and gets a hungry crab Williams. And this race looks. Finn. Yeah, not only Finn, but it looks devoid of speed. If your likes have just folk. Like, just folk was pretty plain late last time. Maybe they just take a hold of him and just try and let him do it. No, they'll do that. They'll go forward. So do you think just folk leads or Al Jouca leads? Whatever scenario, I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one for Al Jouca. I mean, Al Jouca leads and not just folks who get out of the way, but the pace that we've sort of averaged to slightly better than average, I'd imagine. I agree with you. Like, Al Jouca just ticks all the boxes, but I just couldn't possibly back him. We'll get $3.54. I know, but I'm like to $5. And I can't. $5. In your dreams. Well, like, there's not much between the lot of these, I don't think. What? You know, he gets the favourites. I get it and maybe I'm not. Putting enough emphasis on likely maps and R&R and all that sort of stuff. But I just, based on the ratings and the numbers that I'm expecting the most of these horses to run in their ground finals, I can't have him that much more likely than the rest of my photoelectric impulse was pretty good in the big peak last prep. Yeah, track and trip. And this is a Henry Dyer set up third up. He'd be absolutely set for this race. He was really good first up to, made up a lot of ground. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's gendering them. And this one, he was heavily supported there too. Nice horse, third up. I think it's, you know, peak third up last time at Pakenham. I think it's, if I was going to back anything, it'd be it, maybe. What happened to Jimmy last start? Because Jimmy does get a big, big JC. Holy Dernan back to Billy's sleeves up, Egan. Yeah, I mean, he'll pay you. He didn't even give me much of a ride last time. But oh, oh, being a big job. I'm not putting the complaint knife through it, but the horse never really looked like it. Yeah, it got back through. I couldn't, I couldn't back him. I can only want it last year, but I just don't think he's going quite as well. He's got to carry 60. 60, yeah. I've got one from a bit of DF here. He's a T easy source. I'm going to have something on bolts over. It's going to be a wet track. I'm just looking for a bit of different form because these horses also raise each other. I think that core of a long form is good form. It's great to have you last week. He's just a horse that, you know, he struggles to win, but he's always there there about. And I think 16, 4, 4, 20, the place, little one by three action. He's going to win a race of this ilk at some stage. Barrier 6 is going to be afforded to be cutled up in a good position for Mertro. And I just think this horse is going to win a race like this one day. There's one that I'm tipping in Sydney at any old price. I just think he's got more ability than a 16 to 1 chance in a fairly even race where most of them have got their convictions. So I'll have something on C4 on bolt table. On bolt table. Yeah, he goes in my quality, but I'm I'll do get to turn the tables on C4. I couldn't possibly back to him either. Yeah, no. He's on this. But your electric impulse perhaps? Yeah, I guess. I don't know if you could take the theory that Jimmy the Bear was, you know, they were a bit kind of him last time just have a bridging run to peak on final day. Like he was pretty bad. He didn't even look like it. Yeah. No, that's fair. You know what's hard for interesting is say that storm. Yeah, but doesn't like wet track. I liked it first up. It was interesting. Why do you think that? Well, it ran last beat and tend. Never travel. Was there an issue or? No, I just think it doesn't like wet track. It never seen a wet track before. Never locked it. Why are they running it? There's nothing to say that they definitely will. It is a Wednesday. They could scratch it. All right, let's move on to race eight. It is the Cresic stakes, 1200 metres down the I didle didle down the straight chains of love comes over from Sydney. It's our $3.60 favorite from Wies in law. $6. Go on well down the straight this horse. Ludlowm returned with a bang $8.50 from afterburner. Afterburner comes here on the back up $8.50 as well. Foulsett star $9. and Barari looking for four straight victories, $10. Nico, I'll throw the new ball to you for a change. I was getting to have a bad year. I thought it was a good betting race. I thought number nine, Ludlum, was a great bet. One by three, progressive force for bad, went for a kill first up at Seymour. Reguming looks to be a good gamble here. I thought drawing perfectly in the middle hand was soft ground. Yeah, I was sort of keen to be with. I thought change of love was well-shored at 350 of a, you know, first time down the straight of a highway performance. Jamie Malam's not exactly going that flush. You got a few weeks off as well. Yeah, well, that's not to say that. It could be a good thing or a bad thing. I'm happy to take it on. I think $3.50 first time down the straight of highway form. Leave me here. I thought, look, if there is a yardstick to measure yourself against in terms of highway form, exit fee is probably that trusty sort of yardstick. And it was a good win last time. It was a decent rating. She is a bit short at $3.60, but she probably could be the most progressive horse in this race. She's only had the five starts for three victories. So if I get better, I may have something on. Ludlum is an interesting one because she won at Seymour. She returned there. She was short odds and she won well. I don't think she exactly, sorry, he sounds like a girl. I don't know what it just sounds like a male, Ludlum. I don't think she completely appreciated the wet ground. So that is just my one little knock with Ludlum. The race didn't rate all that high, but-- It won't run if it's too wet anyway. It's a big of scratch. Yeah, the race didn't rate anything flush there, but going from Seymour to Flamings and it's going to be given more opportunity to do so. I didn't really have too much of an opinion. The favorite again was a little bit too short. One really well, but again, there wasn't that certain thing that suggested that it was going to go to this big new number. But I do think it's progressive. It's really well bred at time. I've been so allowed to stay with me. Was that a missfinland as well? So a big pedigree. Was it an all-rounder big row in two back? It did. I think that is his absolute ceiling. I think that was just everything went right that day. If I was going to back him, I'd say he'd-- I'd say he's much more likely to run closer to the number he did last hour than what he did two back in this race. But I could be wrong. I have thought Prince Tycoon was a little bit bigger, but no prizes. Let me just get it up here, mate. I don't know. $19. I thought that he made a really big debut that day at Corefield and everyone knew about. I think he's a bleeder. What do you love about it? I'm laughing at the fact that you just checked whether it was a gouding or a mare, even though its name is Prince Tycoon. Not Princess Tycoon. I don't know. He's a breeding buffalo in his suits. So I've mischanted them a couple times tonight as well. Yeah, I think that it was pretty good at Corefield that the last time and compete there. I probably went in the back and I don't have much opinion in this race at all. Shut up, then. Race 9 is a super bowl series final over 1600 metres and yet again this is an age restricted race. So it's just our three year old tier. Number one, Clever Trevor. Polk House multi-home on the first week. Clever Trevor. Clever Trevor into Tron Bolt. Just. Only Jassy got the job done. It didn't look like-- Yeah, if you win by any further bot. It did not look like you won that race. He's our three dollar forty favorite. You get 360 with the bet boost. From lucky lucky boom 750 into six. Obvious $6 out to $6.50. The mean Fidler is $10 and Caliote. $13 into 11. Should mention flying down as well because it's probably your most likely leader at $11 as well. Nicko Clever Trevor's got to go up and the weights again. He's got to run out of strong 1600 metres here. But J is just a winner. He is. Winners find a way and I think he'll find another way here. The step to the mile is definitely no issue. For me, I think he's looking for that now. He was very strong late last time. The step up should be no issue. Yeah, he's got to carry 60 kilos. But I think the horse is in behind here. His stable mate, Paddy Pye, was running in and around and Dernosteer hasn't accepted here. But Dernostar. They were all sort of racing around the same horses in behind him here. They were all sort of just taking their turn. I think Clever Trevor's got far better form and I think he's a far better horse than these. Yeah, I'm not worried about barrier 12. I think we might be getting a little bit better price because of it. But he's a horse that gets back, runs on. Yeah, Billy will find the right part of the track late in the day. There's no climbs in me. He'll handle work going. I thought he was a very, very good bet here and I'd be pretty disappointed if he didn't know his up to the others. That's a strong push by you. I'm going to be with Clever Trevor as well. He won't be my biggest bet of the day. I love what he did last night. I love what he's done all preparation. And joining up and barrier 12, he should be able to find the best lanes laid on in the day. Look, he's got a carry of the 60 here. Look at it from this perspective. It goes 58 to 60 kilos and you look at a horse like Obvious, who actually after the claim last start, got him with just 52 and a half kilos. It now goes up to 57 and a half kilos. So when you look at it and Luke Cartwright can't use his claim on Obvious. So when you look at it that way, Clever Trevor's only going up to and Obvious is going up five. Now Obvious has ticked the 1600 meter box, which is what Clever Trevor hasn't done yet. Lucky, lucky, boom has also run out of strong mile. So there are a couple of other runners in this race who have run the mile before. But I think if the Fave sees it out strongly, then he's the one for me. Will? I didn't have in favor. I thought he was too short. You don't let me have a bet with you or not? No. I just, I don't see. What's your absolute coward? I don't see where the improvement comes from. Maybe it's over a mile. You know, he's scraped in. He won by a nose and he's bad. Who is card number? Such a bot thing to do to knock the winner who just keeps winning. He won by a margin. But he has to carry 60 kilos here and I don't see where the improvement. He could carry maybe 75 and would. I thought lucky, lucky, boom. 75. You 75. I could sweat and get to 75. I was 76. 75. Come on, man. 76 Friday. No way. You're wasting away. I thought my ride so. I think you need to start eating again. If professors not ride to ride so next weekend, I'm on. All that and an anorexia nickel. So it happens because you stress me out. Lucky, lucky, boom. I thought I was really interested in it. I thought that it could push forward and the market has taken a liking to it earlier. Whatever had to head. No, I'm right, thanks mate. I'm happy just backing it. And I thought that seriously hot was a little bit too big too. Japan's turning into a coward. Was I not always? Yeah, well true. He has remained. He has remained. All right. Is that Flaminton Rappt's up? Yeah, pretty much. Happy days. What would your best favourite Flaminton B? What? It'd be rain sun. But you're not going to let me put that in the podcast multi. No chance. So it would be. At least you know your place. It is a great bit though. It's just not the podcast multi bit. No, I can't let me do it. No way. All right. We can't even have a 50 to one bet like as a podcast multi because it's like. As soon as 500 people go on like that. Brandon, Brandon, the liability is too great. Brandon and our friends in the booth are complaining about 16 little bits. A lot of loans. 50 to one bits. We'll go in race number two that will be my podcast selection. About that. That's your best bet. Whether we're going to include it in the podcast multi is another question. You're not included in the series. We're just here to see how you go this week. Well, we did a poll on Twitter and it came back 75%. Oh, that is absolutely up. No, fuck you both. I don't want to be involved anyway. That's hilarious. You're staking it well. I've taken it well. Skip it, can't it? Your best bet is Skipper. Your best bet race 9 number one Clevver Trevor Nico. Yeah, yeah. Best bet race 9 number one Clevver Trevor best value is race 4. Number three reigns on really keen each way there. Yeah, I don't really have any best bets. Maybe it's race seven number three. Al Jouker in the main race, but I'm yeah, tough tough. Yeah. All right, let's go to Rose Hill. We'll probably we won't go over these race by race, but let's just go over the. We'll just cover the two that well. There's three. There's three we want to talk about. Two especially. We'll get to them. Rose who was. Rouse out one maybe. It was six metres last week, Nico, and there was a severe bias to rails in run. 27 of the 30 place getters. - Who are you going to listen? - The rails in run. Disgusting behaviour. However, I think it'll play a fair bit better going back to the one-minute position. That's the great white hope anyway. Yep. Whether looks fine over the next couple of days, so I expect the track will get back to probably the lower. - End of the soft range or the five-six, not six-seven? - Yeah, the better end of the, um. Yeah, let's not do that. I thought we were grown up. - Not children. - Yeah, you're 30. Race three. It is a two-year-old event over 1,100 metres. I'm 27, thank you. I'm along two-year-olds, 60, satin' summer, 60, coto, eight dollars, Resilutely $10. It'll be interesting to see whether Resilutely runs here, Or in Ssit or in Melbourne. I'm going to lean that go Melbourne. But I'm along. Nico, this son of extreme choice, it was a bit of hype going into this runner's day boo. - Borented. - And I think he sort of justified it. I think I thought it was great win. Yeah, I'm really happy to get involved on the smart Yolong Cult who will remain unbeaten in my humble opinion. Takes two off for good measure with Sianna's claim, who has a great book of rides on the weekend. It just looks to further continue her brilliant winter preparation, riding for C.J. Wallot. Yeah, I can't wait to see what this horse can do on Saturday and beyond. I think he's only going to get better with racing. Obviously, he's racing floors and his manners have still got maturing to do. He was still a bit of a gangling type last time. I don't know exactly what happened, just sort of spotted him three, put a margin on him and was pretty soft late. I don't think the winning margin in the end reflects the true dominance of the performance and never really looked in any sort of shadow of a doubt up the home straight and you would never really worry prior to the straight. Yeah, I sort of thought, upon acceptances that these couple of horses that we like on Saturday would open shorter than what they are. I think $2.50 is a really good price for this horse. This is a horse that I thought would open near enough to odds on and he hasn't. I suppose it's all really going to depend what happens with, you know, resolutely and a few of these other horses. But yeah, I thought this horse was closer to an odds on chance and we're getting $250, so I'm happy to have a bit. Yeah, I agree. I'm along. Davey Rating was pretty good. He won 1.7 weight for age, which stacks up pretty well with a lot of these two year old debut taunts and just you got to love the late split and just his action. He just looks like a decent horse. I had a small bet on him to win the cool more, whether he can reach those heights remains to be seen. But I think he can win this race. A few people were saying the run of sanctum was actually the better run and he'll be the better horse like give me a spell. Just watch, go and watch the race and just watch the horses. I think you can tell which horse is the better horse and it's I'm along. I'm happy to be with him. Certain summer, the filly is your danger. She returns here. She won really nicely on debut and then she came to the end of her preparation very quickly second up, but she is the clear danger for me and she's trolled up very well in the lead up to this, but I'm all about I'm along to run on down. Race four, 1100 meters. This is a benchmark 78 for the fillies and there's big red to killer. Well, she went up a bigger price, but there's been already some deductions that come out of this. So 10 cents with the second favorite coming out, which means she's now into a $1.65. Delicious $4.60. She within $8.50, user pin $12 and gale, Jeanette at $13. Big red to killer just looks like your M word of the day. She's been running around against ice cool. The last couple starts, the ratings have just been enormous for a race like this. 92.8 and then 94 last time around. She carried the 58.5 kilos last time. She only comes up two kilos here to the 60.5 and the biggest thing is she drops back from open grade to back to fillies and mayors and this looks a week, week, right? She draws beautifully in barrier five. She goes a thousand meters to 1100 meters. And really, she should go forward and she should kick their heads in. She'll be a married dance. Like one of the podcast multi. Yeah, she is my podcast multi selection. Race five, speaking of podcast multi's. This is a bit of a sore point. It's going to be fitting though, isn't it? This horse. It is going to be fitting. Benchmark 72 three-year-old over 1,300 meters. Hello, captain, was Julie accepted? We didn't laugh in pure happiness that it got beat last time. Yeah, well, you're wondering why you're not in the podcast multi. It's for evil behaviour like this. You piece of shit. Podcast. Julie started win anyway, so I wouldn't have mattered. But, gee, we're still a sick beat for our singles. Hello, captain, $2.50. Look at him. He's over the moon. From the computer. You're actually the shitest person. Fuck you when you're podcasting. Extractiveness. $8.50 and cheeky smirk. That's exactly what bots were doing in the studio. It's $12. There you go. Hello, captain, Drew. Barry, one last time, needed chopper rescue to come out. Didn't get it. The cross for SOS help just didn't arrive in time. He got out late. He should have won the race, conserved with the buy a length and a half, two lengths or a half. You get his chance at redemption here. Not only for himself, but for the podcast multi. He does. Well, that was right last time. It was a certainty. It was a certainty beat and a certainty home. But anyway, I've moved on. Have you? No, I haven't. But this is a horse that I thought would probably go up $1.60 after last time. It's going up. Black odds. I think that's good odds. We're not going to say any more about last time. But Barry is seven. We're two off. I'm going to say about last time. But Barry is seven. We're two off for Sienna. Get to me 58, half. Barry is seven. After the Barry trial last time, should be fitter. And, yeah. There shouldn't be any issues this time. I do think he is a horse that is much better than this field. Providing. Disclamber here. Providing no bad luck. This horse will win. And he is the second leg of our podcast multi that we've conjured up. So let's do it. Let's do our quick little spill podcast multi time. I am taking a race for Rosy, number one big red to kill. This man, she's dropping back to her own sex. Philly's a mayor's grade. Her ratings are just superior to these. Even with a big weight coming through, you know, those races against ice cool. And she goes in. She should be winning. And yours is. Rosy will race five, number four. Hello, captain. Nash off. Sienna on. Good Barry this time. Redemption time. Redemption time for Hello, captain. And yeah, I think this horse will win. Given even luck. And yeah, that's a good. It's going to be good to get one back. That's a good chance. Mine is virtual circle in the banjo set Patterson series. Someone's in this marketplace. Dump button. Do you have anything else at Rosy? Yeah, well, there was, I wanted to have a little play in race number nine. Yeah, which is obviously the winter stakes. I'll figure it out. Fourteen hundred meters. Yeah, this is our feature midnight Dynamite 380 Glorious moments 420. Windshut is a bit of a control for a 750 and general salute $8 cool, Jakinine dollars. So some good horses. Yeah, a little too bad play here. Main bet of the races number four midnight Dynamite. I think we'll roll forward with K-Mac was dominant last time. It sort of has the better base of form, I think, Ben. We've sort of discussed this tonight at dinner. Is this more consistent? Obviously number 15 Glorious moments is the progressive horse on the up. But I just think midnight Dynamite is probably the horse with that better base of form at the moment. Providing K-Mac doesn't get spooked from wide. This rolls forward with the pace. Find the spot. Should be awfully hard to bet again. I think four dollars is a good bet. I want to forgive a horse because he's, if he shows up over 1400 meters with his best form, he's not a 61 dollar chance in anyone in any race that he runs in. Number 12 Poison Chalice. Ran moderate last time, first time Sydney going. I think we'll take improvement from that. Obviously has sort of six or seven links to make up on majority of this field from last time. But at 61 dollars, you don't have to have much on to get a return. And this horse, we all know the ability that he's got if he ever decides to put it all together. To live more than a light year here and there, then he's a horse that shouldn't be this price. Obviously you've got to take on trust, but he's getting a price to trust. So, 61 looks an easy little nibble on him. Just when I'm not back in each race because he'll either run first or 14th. And I'll re-understand and get out race 10, benchmark 78. Over 1400 meters, Tarsing $3.00, from super massive $3.40, he's $8.50. That's what we'll be doing on Saturday, Puntan. It's been halved in quote and Montpelier is $11. If noting that the big scratching in this race was Hello Captain, who was dual accepted up until midday today. I'm with Tarzan. I'm with Tarzan. Ran a big new career peak last week. I know he was rails and run on that very bias, Rose Hill track, but a big news bike figure of 91 weight for age on Formking. That is clearly the best recent figure in this race. He's still progressive. He's only had the five starts, three wins and a couple thirds. Supermassive is your danger from the Gavewaterhouse in Adrian Botstable. He'll be in this for a very long way. You might be likely leader from barrier three, but he's a little bit more basic. He doesn't really have a big spike as yet. He's consistent and half, but I just think Tarzan has all the upside and after Cien and Grime gets him with our two kilo claim. 56 kilos on the back and I think this horse will run down the lead again like it did last week. One day back up, I think it's a good bet. What do you have anything around the grounds? No, no, it's Wednesday. Belmont, Niko. There's a couple of markets. Yeah, that's what I really want to wait and see what the weather does. I thought ladies pro should be favourite in the Belmont Oaks. I think two from two on a soft track. Obviously had a little set back into last time. It was good. Yeah, obviously like clockwork. That was lucky last time. Yeah, it was, but I think where the unlucky runner I think could be over bet doesn't really have a base of form on wet going. Looks like it was a heavy track there today with more rain to come over the coming days. No real confidence at this point, but I thought ladies pro should be favourite and come closer to race time. Might put something out in the set day morning if I decide to have a bet. Ladies pro plus some stuff. There's not much but swearing in the market. Ladies pro two on 80 and my clockwork, two on 60. There's not much, but I think there is a little bit. I think ladies pro's got that better base of form and she's got this and the wet track credentials where like clockwork is the unlucky horse that has got a favourite of a sprue on it. And so the Belmont Oaks is obviously the girls edition and the acquenator, the race prior is for the boys. I probably will be with the favourite there, Westbound, 2.30, he has ticked the wet track box one for one and I think he comes through the right lead up race, just got back a long way there and getting up to the 2000 metres I think will be suitable. So I think I'll be with the favourite. There'll be those. Alright, let's get over to some question time now. Let me just load up the Twitter sphere. Alright, that's not good podcasting. Sorry man, I've got it now. Alright, first one is from Adam Page says Kelly Alfred in response to the photo that I put out. Is that meant to be Kelly peaking dot Kelly? Maybe it would be comparing to what is the relation? Okay, Tyson Hunter, why didn't you stay in Japan forever? I wish I could. David Funt, does the Satur come in Heterror? I don't know that. I had to look this up. I'm guessing it means Heterror, heterosexual. That bag was the MVP of the trip, like just carrying stuff around. That was like the best thing ever. Yeah, obviously I messed up the pronunciation of that. Heterror, you always meant to say. So yeah, basically everyone. Yeah, that's what I thought he meant. Everyone saying you look like a bit of a. A bit of a fae mouth as well. Oh come on, I know it's carrying around bags. It was moving hotels. Yeah, well, that's not fair. Well, those bags are just overflowing with estrogen and apparently. Well, she's pointing happening in the back department. I think Kevin also commented walking Uni-Kloi ad. Rowan Gregor. Now, this is the first proper question. Boys, what is your favourite pub around Melbourne to watch the races at? Nico, he's your opportunity. And providing you have a profitable day, favourite massage power. Asking for a friend. Oh boy. Asking for your voice with girlfriends is probably not a good idea for massage power recommendations. I can give a good one. It's about boy. I'll have you know. Well, based off his message, I don't think he wants a buff board massage power. Okay. Well, if you want a proper massage, Amaran Thai massage, it's sent away, killer east or East Kiel, or the actual locals call it East Kiel. It's sent away. Amaran Thai is clearly the best Thai massage in your sort of, Essenden East Kiel or local area. And it's a great means of recovery after a game of football. It's going to the pub and the beer at the rising Sunhoid Telsouth Melbourne. Yeah. John and Elise will look after you. They look after us every Wednesday. Yeah. Every Wednesday we're in there before the podcast. Yeah. Big things coming. A few things in the works. Yeah. We're trying to get some of the rising Sunhoid Telsouth. If you're over the other side towards sort of Merdy Ponds Flemington area, obviously the Ascot Vey Hotel is a great racing pub. Great to watch races, that. Yeah. There's plenty of good racing pubs around the show. You can't find a bad one if you have, you know, you have to find, yeah, you've got to be sort of upsheet correctly, had a paddle to find a bad racing pub. Rising Sunhoid Telsouth now, we've got two good calls. Robert, what do you think, Robert? As usual, lads, midweek tip please. Yeah, I gave one today, Empress of the Sun. James Johnson's been giving some good rides and some good horses, but today was probably one that he might want to have back. Might not have mattered when it was good. Form the Frank. Form the Frank. Frank the Form. Frank the Form. Frank the Form for Rain Sun, but, yeah, probably, probably didn't think the horse was going to be ridden that way off last time, which I thought would have been advantageous to the way the track played today. And had the horse been ridden how I thought probably might have had a different result. Anyway. Now there's a horse, there's a horse running tomorrow in race eight on the ballerat Syntho. It's drawn out in 15, so that's, that's your knock. But if it just stays out of trouble, it's not a bad horse. His name is Oda Kallon, absolutely bowls it in last time on the Syntho by five. It's got a run down Shoot of McGavin, who's pretty consistent in an area on this sort of class, but that's one I had my eye on. And Lake Forest for the Sissy Club, not the European Lake Forest, but Lake Forest, the Aussie, trained by Peve Gallagot, probably should be getting the job done at the shorts in the race prior. Ryan Patton, Japan, Dunwonders for the Boys Glock, referring to Bot, with Mitchell starting up a jumps podcast, shout out to the jump around pod. Yeah, shout out to the great man, he's doing that with Maddie Stewart. Is there a possibility the racing, the racing previews boys lose Niko to his pod if the price is right? We can only hope. Well, that won't be happening, but I'm, yeah, Mitchell will be listening. I'm happy to come on if he wants to have me. Oh, they'll get you on a special guest. Before the seasons out, yeah, I loved, loved listening to their pod last week and the boys went well, obviously, on a personal note, Sunday was good after a disappointing day on Saturday. So yeah, it was good to have the eye back in and have a relatively stress free watch. And yeah, I'll post something up if something catches the eye on Sunday, but obviously this week's a bit of a lull because, you know, if it's six more weeks of the jump season left and we sort of go features in a fortnight, a month and six weeks time. So this week's a bit of a lull, but I'd look at the nominations today and there's actually some reasonable horses nominated for the races. So yeah, it could be, it could be jumping again here because we all thought we were going to see Stern Idol sing for peace first golden garden last week and that didn't happen. So yeah, providing the horses show up on Sunday. I'll send something out regardless, but yeah, if the boys want me on the podcast, there's no pressure there. I'll be happy to come on. I'll make sure to send a re-tweet that on the racing previews pod, sorry, on the racing previews, Twitter and also our Instagram and Nico, of course, he went three out of three on Sunday. So well done, mate. Racing off. Here's an attractive fellow. This guy, Alfred, should keep him around. Anyway, 28-day suspension. Are we taking the piss? So apparently, we always had a glow up in Japan. I'd beg to differ. And yeah, that's 28 days for the Freedman. It's just, it's baloney. A chay bought one of his steps into the studio tonight and it's Jared Allen on play on his playoff struggles saying the lights were brighter than expected. I feel like about right. I haven't been that bad. I say, won't be. I saw a beat of sweat coming from your before. Yeah, I was. Maybe you should take the old sweater off. Our man twitches at the best of times. Are you very twitchy over there? Yeah. He can't sit still as good as he is. Yeah. Well, he can't help it. That's what I'm asking. That's dreamboat to you, Ben. Oh, Jay, the, um, that's going on. I don't know. There's just a real love-hate relationship. Oh, I thoroughly like him. He's a tough person. Of course you do. Of course you do. I just don't, I never know where I stand with you. No, I know. That's why I like it because it's like your relationship. Like sometimes you'll say you did most beautiful man alive. And sometimes you'll be absolutely ripping you. Down he goes. And then he sends a one and two remain anonymous. We go to our Instagram questions. Yeah, there's not many to go. Typical behind a behind a fake profile. Anonymous question. Yeah. Is it true? Nico Bayside boy, McWalter, has ditched his main. birthday for his cheeses birthday this weekend. No, that's not true. Explain the story. Explain yourself. Sounds like ads are there. This is from Jack Adam. Straight away. No, they obviously both have the birthday of Monday the 6th of July. Well Monday this week the 6th of July is their birthday. When Brooke and I got together I put the feelers out to him to say what are you doing for your birthday trying to plan something for Brooke trying to plan something. Oh, he said no plans. And he gave me the green light to go ahead and book something for Brooke. The original plan was we were doing something next weekend for the boys. That has not has then further down the track been cancelled because Clarky and a couple of our mates that wear silks are going on holidays so that's not happening anymore. And he's planned dinner on Saturday night and unfortunately I can't really cut myself in half and be in two places at once. But he gave me the green light so there's a bit of a try up with that. It'd be 37.5 kilos if you did. I'm still seeing him on I'm still seeing him tomorrow or Friday night. No, that's that's fair enough. That is this absolute throw Niko on the bus and they look like a chic bloke. Yeah, that's the true story. No, that's fair enough. I think I think you're in the clear there. Yeah. Paul Simo, your best spring future plays outside the office. Obviously. Great listen as always. Thanks Paul. Best futures play outside the obvious. Define obvious. Well, not $2 favorite. She's an alibi. I beat a lot of them below in the King Charles. All right, that's a good one. It's about $4. But do you have anything? No, I've not. That's your goal. I don't have any idea. I'll go the cool more. Not I'm along. I'll go the next year. I've already jumped off. I'm along. I've had something on I'm along to win at a big price. But my top seed is the next episode from the Kirin Marstable. Yeah. To win the cool more. Actually, I've got one for you. Gone. Natural. What's the race down the straight at Flemington? The roses. Yeah. Natural fling. Natural. Natural fling or win the roses at Flemington. That's three year old. That's a good. Can we book mark that big Jake? Time stamp. Nine, twenty Wednesday, the first of July. Natural fling train. Natural fling will win the three year old Philly's race during Cup Week. You know, that's a sensational shot. She'll start three dollars. She'll start to play with me. But drawn. Actually, it's a drawn double figure. Yeah. Drawed a double figure barrier and she'll hose up. And you'll see me on the rail. Actually, this is what is he done with Niko? And how does he know the racing calendar this far? And why is he making a T-Cyllip? It's just a three year old Philly's race. That's where she'll go. That's a good share. I don't think she'll run a strong twelve hundred meters. So the roses is probably perfect. That a thousand eleven hundred. Damon Winley. Welcome back, William. Of Sincerely, Miss you. TB. T.B. Terry Bailey. Fourth host. When? Question mark. What does that mean? Fourth host. Well, he'll be. Yeah. We've been as in as in he'll be on the podcast. Yeah, we're going to try and get him on for sure. Within the coming weeks. He can't be any more controversial than Niko's been in the past. So, yeah, I'll message him. We'll try and get him on. But he might tell me to shove it. She could you just imagine, but Ben will be over there squirming in his chair. Why is it he's going to say something? Where's that dump button? Yeah. Well, you two aren't the ones who were employed by bet three six five. Drop in F.C.'s and seize that. Come on. Give me a smell. But body won't be next week. You'll be bloody in Switzerland or a remote island. Super. And she's on the fence. And I'll be in good chocolate splinters. Switzerland are known for there are the vine drops in the in the milk chocolate range. It's two for Angie. Long time. Listen, I first time call off. Is in that alive. Isn't that utter trope? How far does engine of war win buy? I'm a 100% owner. Yeah. If you don't understand that joke, engine of war is a my racehorse runner. And all thousand owners. Stewies managing share. Well, they're all own part of a toenail. And often that toenail gets filed down. So good luck stew. Hope engine of war wins. 0.1% actual share. 100% enjoyment. That's all that matters. They're getting people involved in racing. But it is one of the smartest money making games I've ever heard of. Stew for Angie. Also interesting developments for stew these past 12 hours with footy. Do I unload on Ying? Question mark. So the Ruckman at stew's old local football team has done an injury. What are? Sorry, not maybe not creating season. Seas in life. Seas in ending injury for the Ruckman. And they've called on Stuba to pull the boots back on after about how much can I have on the three or four years? Don't be wishing that upon it. Let's not wish. No. Don't speak it into existence. Let's temper it down a little bit and just go to the string goes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Come on. Yeah. No. That's that's about dark. Something goes. I reckon the string might go pop. But good luck to stew. He's going to be he's going to be fill in. He's going to be straight back in the ones for his local 40-term in Adelaide. And Jay might not be pretty. He's he's he's looking fit like he's he's he's not as heavy as he was. Maybe last year. However on the card. Cardiac sort of fitness is something you can't just sort of step into. Stu Frencher the last one. Finally, welcome back Willem. Can me and Reigns come with you next time to Japan? No, no, thank you. No, I'm fine. That'll be the couple's trip of an age. Yeah. I'll imagine that. I was surprised you read that. I thought that was going to go somewhere else very quickly. No, it was very PGA rate for once. All right. Let's wrap up the podcast there. Just shy of an hour and a half. Fathers, thank you very much. We'll obviously welcome back, brother. Thank you. It's been good. Yeah, we went through every race at the Philippines. So it went for a little bit longer but it won't be like that every week. Let's get this podcast multi-home. Good luck this weekend partners. We'll see you back here next Wednesday night. You win some. You lose more for free and confidential support. Visit gamblinghelponline.org.au.
