    • It doesn't matter what you argue. They perform poorly on those days compared to most volunteer country clubs , which is absolutely useless no matter the excuses of once a year racing etc. They have all year to prepare for these days & resources beyond most clubs Dreams and still it looks moderate at best. Take the BGP crowd out of KM night & it looks pretty sick also. 
    • Maybe it's on the script (running sheet) that everyone working at or for Trackside on any particular broadcast day.
    • I gather you approve of the pervert @Thomass imagery?   Oh the irony.  One minute holier than thou nek minute...

    • What Geelong Races Where Geelong Racecourse – 99 Breakwater Rd, Breakwater VIC 3219 When Saturday, January 4, 2025 First Race 12:20pm AEDT Visit Dabble Feature racing in Victoria heads down the highway to Geelong on Saturday afternoon, where a bumper 10-race meeting awaits punters. The $300,000 Coastal Classic (1700m) and Listed Black Pearl Stakes (1200m) headline the program set to be run on a Good 4, with the rail in its true position throughout. The first on a massive day of racing at Geelong is set to go at 12:20pm AEDT. Coastal Classic Tip: Dashing Dashing was not at his best in the Listed Lord Stakes (1600m) on the Caulfield Heath track, but in a field where he looks likely to lead from the outset, he looks well-placed by Aaron Purcell. The five-year-old gelding will need to be quick out of the barriers, having drawn the widest barrier (7), but with Craig Newitt on board, they should have no issue finding the rail. With key rivals Holymanz and Riot And Rose looking to run on from the rear, if Newitt can pinch a cheap sectional or two, Dashing will prove too hard to run down in the Coastal Classic. Coastal Classic Race 8 – #3 Dashing (7) 5yo Gelding | T: Aaron Purcell | J: Craig Newitt (57.5kg) +320 with Dabble Black Pearl Stakes Tip: Bizot Bizot is a lightly-raced four-year-old mare, and if she is anywhere near her best, she has the capability to finish over the top of her rivals in the Listed Black Pearl Stakes. The Archie Alexander-trained mare flashed home down the heart of the track at Ballarat on December 7 when beaten less than a length in a similar field to what she faces here. With a breakneck speed expected, the race sets up perfectly for Bizot to camp out the back and thunder home late to snare victory. Black Pearl Stakes Race 9 – #13 Bizot (5) 4yo Mare | T: Archie Alexander | J: Daniel Stackhouse (56kg) +500 with Playup Best Bet at Geelong: Don’t Hope Do The Simon Zahra-trained Don’t Hope Do was a dominant BM74 winner at Ballarat on January 7 when finding the lead early and kicking clear to score by 2.3 lengths over 1100m. The four-year-old gelding draws widest in barrier 10, but looks almost certain to land outside of expected leader Philosopher. Jordan Childs should not have to work too hard to find that spot in running, and if Don’t Hope Do can offer a similar kick when asked for the ultimate effort, he will not be for catching. Best Bet Race 5 – #10 Don’t Hope Do (10) 4yo Gelding | T: Simon Zahra | J: Jordan Childs (54.5kg) +240 with Neds Next Best at Geelong: Gallant Prince Gallant Prince has only been run down in the shadows of the winning post at both of his starts this campaign, but strikes a race where he should be able to dictate proceedings throughout. The four-year-old gelding is blessed with plenty of speed out of the barriers, which should negate barrier 12 perfectly. Appentice Jett Stanley hops on board claiming 2kg on Saturday, and with two wins and three placings at the 1400m, Gallant Prince looks set to run his rivals off their feet this time around at $4.40 with Blondebet. Next Best Race 3 – #12 Gallant Prince (12) 4yo Gelding | T: Clayton Douglas | J: Jett Stanley (a2) (56.5kg) +340 with BlondeBet Best Value at Geelong: Chimed Chimed is racing in fine form in recent times, winning three of his last four starts, and looks poised to add to that record in the Geelong opener. The Symon Wilde-trained stayer disposed of his rivals with relative ease at Hamilton needing to lug 60.5kg in a BM64, and as he steps into BM70 company, is set to appreciate the 1kg drop in the weights in tougher company. Will Gordon will look to hold a prominent position from barrier three, and with even luck when building through the gears, Chimed presents great each-way with horse racing bookmakers. Best Value Race 1 – #3 Chimed (3) 6yo Gelding | T: Symon Wilde | J: Will Gordon (59.5kg) +800 with Picklebet Saturday quaddie tips for Geelong Geelong quadrella selections Saturday, January 4, 2025 1-3-4-7-9 1-2-3 7-8-9-13 2-4-10-15 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article
