Saturday Sixer!!
A bangin’ SIX winners from a big day of racing yesterday, and an amazing 9 out of 11 in NZ either winning or placing!
Waitak produced a superb finish to take out the Livamol at $3.80, War of Succession backing that up next race at $4.80.
Earlier, Freddie Time romped home at $4.90 ahead of a timely run from Enrico winning at $5.40, before Clear Thinking took out the Koscuisko at $3.90 with Atlantic Rain wrapped it up for us at $2.30.
Add to that one seconds, seven thirds and three fourths, and almost 50% strike rate!
Plus, we had the pleasure of watching a true sprinting legend in Ka Ying Rising breeze home in the Everest, a magnificent win!!
Fifteen on a busy Sunday, let’s dive in!
Sunday best…
Iron Maiden
Ashburton R3
1:09pm
Good third on debut last December but failed to live up to that in subsequent runs. Resumes from a six month break and has run first and second in two recent trials, so needs to be kept safe especially in better ground, $10 on offer…
BET: 4 units ew
Storms Ahead
Ashburton R10
5:17pm
Stunning finish early June ago to break maidens, he was 15 lengths off the lead at the final bend and flew home to win. Tina stuck a month later, up in grade from his maiden win, and Tina rated him well as he sliced through the field for an easy win despite the betting drift, getting up for us at a delicious $14! Ran fifth to end last prep up to 1800m but reverts to the mile here, Tina sticks, looks dangerous at $6.50…
BET: 5 units ew
Bellutta
Ashburton R11
5:56pm
Returning from a short spell, she got up for us at a memorable $34 in early August when we cleaned up on the exotics too, and looks set to go on with it, $11 a nice EW price…
BET: 4 units ew
Jack In The Box
Waverley R9
4:30pm
Form has gone right off in his last three since winning for us at Wingatui four back, $31 shot, can’t see him popping up today…

BET: 2 units ew
Guerite
Horsham R6
6:30pm
Two trial wins in August were followed by a dominant win at Geelong five weeks ago. Fred sticks, he’s 5:2-2-1 on a horse that has a career record of 6:2-2-2. Up in grade and distance but is an absolute EW bet as $4.20 second fav.
BET: 5 units ew
I Am The Empire, Tikemyson, Goldman
Horsham R7
7:05pm
We’ve got three in the Horsham Cup, the feature of the day, and it’s a very competitive market, with just 60c between the top four in the market.
IATE got up for us at MV 16 days ago, he’s a consistent type and will be hard to beat at $4.80.
Former Kiwi Tikemyson has settled into some good form in his past three runs and looks sure to feature, $4.20 for him.
Goldman, once a Melbourne Cup favourite some tears a go if I recall correctly, has shown nothing in two runs this prep, $14.
BET: IATE & MTS 5 units ew, Goldman 2 units ew, exotics
Gorush Lightning
Nowra R6
6:55pm
He’s an 84 race veteran who’s won for us at big odds in the past, but hasn’t been showing much lately, interest bet at $17.
BET: 2 units ew
Social Conscience, Si Si Milano
Moe R7
7:20pm
SC is going OK without winning, capable if featuring if he brings his best game, Froggy sticks, $7.50 shot.
SSM has shown nothing this prep, needs to lift, $19.
BET: SC 3 units ew, SSM 2 units ew, could fill exotics out…
Fiendish
