(* I'll post an update if there are any selection changes at Ascot after scratchings and rider updates etc come through there *)
Today: Man, oh, man there are a lot of selections today. All of my good systems have decided to throw up multiple picks each so let's hope their timing is right. That said, they do all look to have terrific chances. At Caulfield, 1-7 Zipanese sneaks into this race in good Adelaide form and on the limit weight. She's lightly raced and it looks like she's beaten the handicapper. 4-4 General Ralph was battered from pillar to post last time, which affected his performance. He's a talented horse and comes from a nice system. 7-2 Ulysses has about a million classes on these. The concern is that his form on wet tracks is astonishingly bad. However, it's going to be so hot out there that I'd be amazed if there's not a track upgrade. There's one from our black book running around at Kembla Grange. 3-3 Pluto Pup's first up win in Class 1 company (as a maiden horse) was unbelievable. My note at the time was that he looked like a potential top liner. That might be a bit over the top but it demonstrates what I thought of the effort. I reckon it's a good day to have a go. If the selections underperform then you'll know I've copped a hammering!
Yesterday: Stuff a duck. We were unlucky yesterday, I thought to only finish with 2 from 6 and a slight loss. Typical of the selections at the moment that they pick the first horse (Ebor) that I can remember being disqualified all year.
