The midweek racing returns back to Ipswich and we have the classic shortened card. We will be racing on a good 4 track with the rail out four metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 1.08pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1680M) Well feels like Moscow Mule has been going around for a while but its only start number four today. He doesn’t love to go forward in running so with the rail out four metres it could be a slight query. He should just be winning here but th

Well it’s a day of complete and utter madness, that is right folks its MEKKA Wednesday racing. We will be racing on a good 4 track with the rail out eight metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.33pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1000M) As we have done a fair bit lately the early maiden is just a watch race. Look for the pattern of the track but otherwise this is a no bet race for the mugs today. Race 2: MAIDEN (1200M) Orman is back in town and jumps on th

Its a week out from greatest race day that Wednesday racing hosts up here in Queensland and that is MEKKA races.

Race 1: MAIDEN (1650M) As we have done a fair bit lately the early maiden is just a watch race. Look for the pattern of the track but otherwise this is a no bet race for the mugs today. Race 2:

We have nine race card will be racing on a soft 5 track with the rail out twelve metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 11.57am. Race 1: MAIDEN (1200M) The unraced two year old maiden leads us off for the day and with too much unexposed form happy to steer clear of this race and look for track patterns, assuming on pace is the place to be with the rail b

We are well and truly in off season racing here in Queensland with the weather and new season almost upon us.

Race 1: MAIDEN (1350M) Two Waller runners here with both the senior jockeys on. I think Ben Thompson has rightfully got the pick of them though and happy to be Stylish Edition who was running on la

After the group ones were run and one we had a couple of mid-week days at Headquarters and now well we head out to Ipswich. We will be racing on a soft 5 track with drying conditions the last few days and sunshine all day I can see this improving to a good 4. The rail will be out eight metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.29pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1200M) I thought Savasteel was a bright hope here form the inside draw. With the rail out it will really su

Well the last group one of the season has been run and won and while it means that we can return to Eagle Farm, there are maidens and all sorts. We will be racing on a soft 6 track with drying conditions the last few days and sunshine all day I can see this improving. The rail will be out nine metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.33pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1300M) They have backed a first starter here but from barrier three I think Love Rebel for bucket

Its almost officially off season, well at least it is for the midweek racing. We will be racing on a soft 6 track with drying conditions the last few days with the rail out eleven metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.33pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1110M) Interesting race to start the day with a lack of unexposed form. Extreme Tast has been well backed however just thought Dominater has runs on the board up from Cantebury and the booking of the in form Ben

Stradbroke run and won, and by a Queenslander too no less, which will continue tonight with State of Origin. We will be racing on a soft 7 track with the rain the last few days with the rail out nine metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.32pm Race 1: MAIDEN (1200M) Randy Orton might be winning the first but its simply a follow the money race with no exposed form on a soft track and the rail out nine metres. Race 2: MAIDEN (1200M) Copy paste from ra

Headquarters becomes the centre stage this week, its Grand Final week with the Stradbroke Handicap, greatest race in Australia in my humble opinion this Saturday. This means Wednesday racing continues at Doomben, and with the wet weather horses that suit conditions will be they key today. We will be racing on a heavy 8 track and have the rail out nine metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.35pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1650M) Keen to keep it simple early an

Headquarters becomes the centre stage now after a couple of really good weeks at Doomben. This means Wednesday racing returns to Doomben, and with the difficulty of a bit of track bias last week, the first couple of races will be key. We will be racing on a soft 5 track and have the rail out seven metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.02pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1200M) First race of the day is a fillies and mares maiden and looks to be a nice one in this

Headquarters becomes the centre stage now after a couple of really good weeks at Doomben. This means Wednesday racing returns to Doomben, but punters best be on the lookout for the right lanes today because the precipitation has been our enemy the last few weeks. We will be racing on a soft 6-7 track with the rain we copped overnight and have the rail out five metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.02pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1350M) I am not keen in this

Well the midweeks will be shifting west the next month or so as they let the two main tracks recover for Stradbroke Season. We will be racing on a soft 5-6 track with the rain we copped overnight and have the rail out four metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.33pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1350M) Queen Jeddah for our trainers the Hulberts here comes up a short price favourite but with the rail out four metres and this being the first race I am happy to tak

Stradbroke Season is well and truly underway here in Queensland. The Archer has been and gone, Warrnambool is on down in Victoria and mid-week racing in Queensland is back to nine race cards at headquarters. We will be racing on a soft 6 track with the rain we copped overnight and have the rail out twelve metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 11.57am. Race 1: MAIDEN (1000M) The first of the day is a tough little race with lightly raced horses everywhe

That was one wild weekend, we saw the unbeaten champ go under and I think I am still recovering. We have what will surely be a good 4 track with the sun out and summer style weather around with the rail out seven metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 11.56am. Race 1: MAIDEN (1110M) Race full of maiden runners, big field, it’s a simple no thanks. Race 2: Benchmark 68 (1110M) This is a very even race and is a smaller field and surely Vivika who shoul

After a mug trip to Sydney, seeing the Rockhampton champion dominate the mid-week racing is back at Eagle Farm. We have what will surely be a good 4 track with the sun out and summer style weather around with the rail out eleven metres for the entire course and the first race to jump at 12.38pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1000M) Desanto was good without winning the other day but drawn low again on with the rail position suiting on pace dominant horses should suit this horse. Taylor

Doomben is where we head today and looks like they have adjusted the race numbers again with a meagre seven race card. We have the rail out five metres for the entire course with the first race to jump at 1.38pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1200M) There is a real lack of exposed form in the first today and for that reason I am staying out, Tony has one up from down South first up after a few trials and the Lees team has the other fancied runner, follow the market between those two.

Back to headquarters on what looks a spectacular Wednesday, sun is out, the horse flesh is ready to go and so are the mugs. We have the standardised eight race card today with the rail is out nine metres for the entire course with the first race to jump at 12.55pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1000M) Aristocratic Girl has been good a few runs this preparation and with her on pace style I think the race sets up nicely for her. She can stalk the speed and has a great front riding jocke

This may be the third week in a row we are Doomben so surely by now we are getting the hang of it. The track should be drying after a bit of minor rain over the weekend so not sure how we are still on a soft 5 today. The rail is out eleven metres for the entire course with the first race to jump at 1.03pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (2070M) A maiden over the 2000M is not the way to launch into a profitable day so good luck if you are betting but this is one we will be staying well aw

It was monsoonal weather over the weekend and thoughts are with those further North who are more impacted by this wild weather. We are back to Doomben for this card and that means post the rain that there will be plenty of give in the track. The rail is out eight and a half metres and we find ourselves on a heavy 8 track with the first race to jump at 1.38pm. Race 1: MAIDEN (1350M) This is a handy little race and there is one here that was very brave last start out wide o
