    • Ciaron Maher is backing in the class of Group 1 Oakleigh Plate winner Jimmysstar (NZ) (Per Incanto) ahead of his Valley debut in Saturday’s $1 million William Reid Stakes. A new fresh-is-best approach has seen Maher stick to a sprinting path with the son of Per Incanto, having only started below 1200 metres once before his last-start Oakleigh Plate win – when he also won fresh first-up in the spring. Maher said he has no concerns about the powerful finisher navigating the tight circumference at The Valley. “I think he’ll be second half of the field and making his run through them, so you always need a bit of luck,” Maher admitted. “Last start when you see them run the last furlong the quickest of all their sectionals in the race, it’s pretty exciting. “When you see them do what he did – he ended up winning easy in the Oakleigh Plate – he was very strong through the line and gets an extra 100 metres. “The Valley is obviously tighter and a different set-up, but he certainly is still on the up.” Jimmysstar has not only won both 1100-metre races he has contested but also his only 1200-metre event – his maiden win at Wanganui in April 2023. Jimmysstar won’t be on his own at his first start around The Valley as Rey Magnerio, Benedetta, Stretan Angel, Reserve Bank and Arabian Summer will also get their first looks in a field of nine. Maher said the five-year-old who drew barrier 2 could in fact be handier to the speed given the small field. “That certainly works for him,” Maher said of sprinting off a hot speed. “But I’m sure he is not one-dimensional either – he has led a race at Flemington and just got pipped on the line. “So we tell ourselves that, but I am sure a little bit further will suit him and if they do only go slow he will just be a bit closer.” As for what could be next on his radar? “The Quokka was thrown around, there’s the T.J. Smith, I thought the Queensland program would really suit him, but it depends what he does on Saturday,” he said. Maher will also saddle up Thousand Guineas winner Another Prophet in the Sunline Stakes, the progressive Shanwah tackles the Alister Clark Stakes and Just Like Gaby will look for valuable black type in the Don Casboult Classic.

    • Williamson have some good ones but is the competition up to much, having said that, by turning up week after week, getting a nice earner for the trouble, which seems to be the mantra for many harness meetings, small fields, dominant stables.
    • A few easy reasons for you are the cost of running one (a horse) is more than it's worth these days in trying. The ones that do run go so darn fast that trainers like all Williamsons  , are just too darn good at home down South with Empire City, Ruby Rose , etc. and you can't win. the mile rates are way too quick they run.  You need slow Thursdays to attract the slow horses. Just race for a few 1000. Redcliffe had it's slow race day today . They do that each Thursday. For horses only running 30 second quarters. that's as fast as they can go lol. but you still need some races for them to keep people involved.  As a side note for something different>  I see SWAYZEE"S Brisbane training stable (ex-pat Tim Butt and son Riley Butt) had the single worst day today, I have ever seen a stable have in this state. 5 horses running . None galloped but were all Beaten a total of about 300m between them . 3 very long lasts in just 30 second quarters ??  2 were banned , 2 warned for being uncompetitive and on last chance to race truely, and the 5th one was $3.20 and got beat a long 40m (beating home the Korbyn Newman driven Stablemate . Bet he wishes he was back at Dunn's already 🤣😉)  At least I can see why Swayzee ran unplaced for 8 starts running now , while in Queensland before Grimson days 😋  
    • Entains bonus system is just not going to work! To have a race at Addington on a Friday night with only 3 starters now is just WRONG! Unfortunately despite this increased money bring chucked into stakes and bonuses from the promised funds from Entain, things just are not improving. Do they really believe that people are going go be encouraged to breed a horse so it csn race as a 2 year old for a 4k payday? With the cost of breeding a horse and then all the other costs of everything involved in training the horse for many many months, it is just delusional to think it is enticing! The horse you bred probably owes you in the vicinity of $100k just to be in a position to race as a medium term  2 year old with a reasonable trainer, and they think 4K is a game changer?
