That's a Group 2 field if I've ever seen one. Bang average edition of the Toorak this year 🥴

Brace yourselves for 11 straight days of the millions of Ninja owners telling us he's the best horse in the world. God help us all 🤣

Actual footage of me when Aethelwulf lost 😭

Gold Coast Belle. I judt heard the cries of a thousand multis. 😭

Might have to replace the stewards with lifeguards today. Still absolutely pissing down 🌧

The Turnbull is one of the most important races of the Spring as it plays an influential role for the major cups ahead. The reigning champion returns 2nd up on a path to history, looking to become the first back-to-back winner since the great Winx. His first-up run in the Makybe Diva suggested he is right on track, and getting back to his preferred 2000m trip makes him the horse to beat. He is one of a few who should relish the wet conditions too. Aeliana was poor 1st up in the Winx but powered home strongly behind Autumn Glow in the 7 Stakes. She beat Sir Delius in the Ranvet earlier this year. James McDonald had Aeliana positioned closer to the speed where she could track the tempo comfortably, whereas Sir Delius had to track into the race from further back as the sprint quickened off a slow speed. Moving from Rosehill to Flemington's expansive 2000m course will suit Sir Delius's sustained momentum and true staying power. While Aeliana will again enjoy an economical run from barrier 2, the long Flemington straight gives Sir Delius the ideal runway to turn the tables. I think if there's genuine pace unlike their tactical Ranvet clash, the favorite can overcome the barrier and reverse the result. I like Half Yours on a Heavy deck alot. He draws wide and probably needs further to show his absolute best but I think if it's wet enough he's a real smokey for a place. Light Infantry Man is a big price for a dual Group 1 winner over this trip, one of those being the Australian Cup earlier this year. Not sure if he's come back as well but the stable have a habit of switching things on when it matters. Should be dictating the pace early. GL PUNNAS🍻

🏆𝗚𝟭 𝗘𝗣𝗦𝗢𝗠 𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗣 🎯𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 1️⃣ Autumn Boy 2️⃣ Well Written 3️⃣ Ceolwulf 4️⃣ Attica 💰𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 Autumn Boy - WIN @ 3.90 (5u) Well Written - WIN @ 4.00 (5u) Hard to go past Autumn Boy for this one in what looks to be another J Mac + Chris Waller Group 1 special at Randwick. He was brilliant last start in the Makybe Diva finishing behind Sheza Alibi who is arguably the best horse in the country. He gets in well at the weights to a manageable handicap and maps to land in the sweet spot off the speed. If the tempo is genuine up front, his sharp burst over the final 300m will make him exceptionally tough to hold out. If it wasn't for Sheza, he'd be a 4 time Group 1 winner. I think he's incredibly underrated and we'll see his best. On Saturday. I'm so excited to see what Well Written can do in Australia. She's put herself on the map as New Zealand's most talented 4 year old mare and has not been beaten in 7 starts. Thought Matt Cartwright was a bit stiff not to retain the ride but she gains the services of Zac Lloyd which is a big tick. This is a huge test of her ability. I personally think she has to improve 2.5 lengths to get close to Autumn Boy. If they go quick, which they very well could, I think she's got a huge chance. She'll land off the pace and give a big kick in the straight. Just had to dutch her with Autumn Boy from a betting perspective considering the price. Joseph Pride has two big chances in Ceolwulf and Attica. The rise in trip to the mile is a green tick for Ceolwulf who ran in behind Autumn Glow and Aeliana last start in the 7 Stakes. 4th up now where he's won before, he will be strong through the line and remains the primary threat if the top two make any tactical errors. Attica gets 51.5kg here and has a huge chance with the sharp weight drop. Will be benefited by a strong tempo and should be charging home well. This looks like his best chance of getting a Group 1 this prep so I trust the stable will have him firing on all cylinders. GL PUNNAS🍻

Raining cats and dogs in Melbourne town 🌧 Hopefully Flemington doesn't become a swimming pool come Saturday! Will be lucky to stay out of the heavy I think.

🏆𝗚𝟭 𝗙𝗟𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗞𝗘𝗦 🎯𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 1️⃣ Striking Alibi 2️⃣ Global Goal 3️⃣ Bangkok Hottie 4️⃣ De Armas 💰𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 Striking Alibi - WIN @ 2.60 (5u) Global Goal - WIN @ 3.10 (4u) Expecting Striking Alibi to get the job done in the final leg of the Princess Series. This looks tailor made for a Grand Final peak at the mile with J-Mac taking the reins once again. Her closing sectionals behind Bangkok Hottie in the Tea Rose were elite, and I have no doubts that she'll relish the rise in trip. Should land in the sweet spot from barrier 2 and have every chance. Another one primed for the Grand final target is Global Goal. Also had great closing sectionals in the Tea Rose and should be primed for this. Her pedigree suggest she was born a miler, so this could be a race in two between her and Striking Alibi. She'll get favours if they race at a genuine tempo where there's high pressure. I'm of the opinion that this race will be more of a controlled / moderate tempo which should suit Striking Alibi more. Will need to have a saver on her. Bangkok Hottie brings the gold-standard Princess Series form after taking out the Tea Rose. She maps to find a dream run right on speed from barrier 3 and will take serious catching. I do wonder if she peaked on last start. 1 run too many? Money has come for De Armas tonight. Seriously big betting move into $14 after opening at $34. What do they know? GL PUNNAS🍻

I'm liking the Striking Alibi into Autumn Boy multi ALOT 💰 James McDonald a serious chance to turn things up a notch and get a Group 1 double this Saturday!

How has Sir Delius opened at $3.40? That's an incredible price for the champ. He runs into Aeliana who I suspect will be almost at her peak here. Sir Delius typically peaks 3rd up. Will he be good enough to make it back to back Turnbulls?

Can't believe the NRL can't even get 60k to a prelim at Accor. Where does it go wrong?

G1 Manikato Stakes | Jimmysstar🏆 Where has this Jimmy been?! Bloke's been MIA for yonks but he finally decided to have a crack today! Love the horse but jeez he's been costly 🙃

Okay Jimmy why couldn't you do that on William Reid or Memsie day? Of course he wins the day I don't back him 🙃

Mr Brightside should've been retired after the Memsie. Two runs too many. A fantastic horse with an outstanding record but it's well and truly time to hang up the horseshoes.

Need a market for Ciaron Maher to have all the top 5 places in the Caulfield Cup. Stable's got so many chances this year.

Pretty Baby beaten by a good one there in Regal Ambition. Put that filly into your blackbooks. Looks a great Thousand Guineas hope.
