Race 6: HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY MIKE ODY HANDICAP (1000m)Prince is a classic "fifty percenter," having finished in the top two in 50% of his career outings. He was huge last start when rattling home for second over this track and distance. Tash Faithful…

Race 9: MCA Polytrack Handicap (1400m)Return Of The Mach is our final "fifty percenter" of the day. She has 4 placings from 7 starts and was an "awesome" winner two starts back. Her last run at Ascot was full of merit, storming home late for third. …

Race 5: Happy 80th Sean Twomey Handicap (2200m)Kisses From Kelly is a distance specialist who finally gets back to her pet trip. With a 55% place rate across 31 starts, she is the reliable veteran of the field. Her second-up run was a flashing secon…

Race 5: Chaff City Pinjarra Handicap (1200m)The Class 5 feature of the day. SUNBRONZED looks the standout under the principles of recent peak performance. He was excellent when second at Ascot last start and has a victory at this track previously. T…

Ascot R9. Tabtouch Perth Cup - New Year's Day Handicap - Terry Leighton A really uninspiring betting event to finish the day. And by this stage (unless I’ve tipped the card), I will already be starting to show signs of distress at having to wait …
-
Ascot R8. Railway Stakes - Terry Leighton The feature event of the Perth Racing carnival and what a seriously cracking line up we have this year. No fewer than seven Eastern Staters have made the trip across (though I think we should probably cal…
-
Ascot R7. Sky Racing - WA Guineas - Terry Leighton One of the more competitive Guineas in recent memory with neither the guys nor the gals establishing themselves as the dominant sex ahead of the three year old feature. The problem with being a W…
-
Ascot R6. Magic Millions Tattersall's Cup - Terry Leighton The bookies are calling this a two horse race and while I sort of agree with that, I think it is more of a one horse race. Trap For Fools has taken all before him this campaign with some …
-
Ascot R5. Tabtouch-placid Ark Stakes - Perth Turf Talk An intriguing Placid Ark Stakes which, while being devoid of a star young sprinter (proven at least), is an extremely competitive betting affair. Like a night out with Benny Cousins, the spee…
-
Ascot R4. Crown Perth-jungle Mist Classic - Terry Leighton I dare say these won’t be the only fillies and mares that racegoers will have their eyes on this afternoon. They’re also not the only ones which could cost you a few bucks. This looks …
-
Ascot R3. Carbine Club Of W.a. Stakes - Terry Leighton Quite an amazing stat in this event with all 9 runners coming out of different races. We have: Northam Cup, RJ Peters Stakes, Colonel Reeves, Ascot Gold Cup, Prince Of Wales, Asian Beau &am…
-
Ascot R2. Tourism Wa Trophy - Terry Leighton No ride for Willy Pike in the first. I’d suggest some trainers/owners go out to the nearest mirror store. And look in one. Harsh, I know, but needed to be said. This looks a race dominated by three …
-
R8. Get The Tabtouch Handicap - Terry Leighton A thin race on paper to finish the day with the Bob Peters pair of Bold Success and Show Honey looking the obvious two. I was a little surprised to see Pike opt for Bold Success over Show Honey, tho…
-
R7. Strickland Stakes - Terry Leighton I'd be highly surprised if Scales Of Justice was to lose another race on WA soil at 1600m+. He is simply a class above and the fact he is now on the fourth line of Cox Plate betting suggests this will be a …
-
R6. Crown Towers Handicap - Terry Leighton This looks to be the most open race of the day, especially if the inclement weather rolls in as expected. A dart board job. Rare Coin went up at $10-14 with most agencies. Clearly this was a nice pri…
-
R5. Events At Ascot Handicap - Terry Leighton The Miller yard look to have found a smart one from NSW in Cruachan. His two trials were a sign of what was to come on race day when making a mockery of a reasonable class 5 field at Pinjarra. Mitch…
-
R4. Old Mate's Sports Bar & Eatery Handicap - Terry Leighton Baraki Beats makes my ex girlfriend look sane. The best part about this barrier rogue is you know you are always a good chance of having a collect, even if it is from a late scratch…
-
R3. David Grays Aglink Handicap - Terry Leighton Probably the one horse in Perth at the moment who gets me physically excited. I have always had a weird fetish for seeing the cerise and white being in an impossible position 200m out and Pike fini…
-
R2. Sign On Handicap - Terry Leighton The return of High Conviction and subsequent appointment of The Wizard is likely to see this daughter of Snitzel start at a pretty thin quote. The Miller yard doesn't mind a bet and I suspect she will be well…
-
R9. Ascend Sales Trophies Handicap - Scott Embry Here's hoping that everyone had a safe and enjoyable Christmas, landed a few cheeky multis (falcon) and that the punting Gods will let your luck roll on into 2017. This is the final preview from me…
-
R8. Tabtouch-perth Cup - Scott Embry Pretty sure this is the 2017 Perth Cup because Delicacy won on New Years Day 2016 but anyway it is an incredibly interesting race to assess from a form perspective. Anyone writing off Perfect Reflection becaus…
-
R7. Schweppes-summer Scorcher - Scott Embry I think the biggest question mark many will have over Dream Lifter will be his ability to hold a position in running over the first 300m. If he can jump with the majority of the field and hold a positio…
-
R6. Mumm Champagne Handicap - Scott Embry No doubt a lot of punters will have highlighted barrier 10 as a concern for Shady Gray however, I totally disagree. Drawn barrier 10 will ensure that he can slide back in the field, settle off the pace an…
-
R5. Tabtouch Race Replays Handicap - Scott Embry There is probably no more consistent galloper going around right now than Settlers Creek. He is one of those horses, much like Preselection, where you just know they will put themselves in a winnin…
-
R4. La Trice Classic - Scott Embry Cosmic Storm went into this race 12 months ago as a raging $2 favourite and could not get near Ideal Image, going down by almost 5 lengths. This time round most again expect Cosmic Storm to be far too strong for…
-
R3. Get The Tabtouch Plate - Scott Embry Carocapo was spruiked by every man and his dog on debut and after opening up an amazingly attractive eachway price of $9 he was crunched into $4.60 before returning to an eachway quote of $5.50 by the time…
-
R2. James Boag\'s Premium Handicap - Scott Embry Run Liam Run was an eye catching effort first up from a spell. Regular rider Lisa Staples returns to the saddle and if the great southern gun can get racing room from barrier 1 over the concluding …
-
R9. Presets Performing Perth Cup - 31 Dec Handicap - Scott Embry Just like race 6 there is no suggest bet because I will be backing 2 horses: Jetoomy and Point. I have a massive opinion of Jetoomy and am excited to see him return after a bit of t…

R8. Peters Investments-kingston Town Classic - Scott Embry There is nothing that can sway me from the belief that Scales of Justice is a huge chance of going back to back and winning the Group 1 Railway Stakes, Kingston Town double. His sectional…
