Francis Graffard trainee Cankoura (Persian King) was last seen running third in June's G1 Prix de Diane and bounced back in style to register a first pattern-race triumph for her second-crop sire in Sunday's G3 Sky Sports Racing Prix de Psyche at Deauville. The 3-5 favourite was steadied off the tempo in sixth after an alert break from the outside stall. Stirred into action soon after turning for home, she quickened smartly to launch her challenge entering the final furlong and ran on strongly in the latter stages to comfortably outpoint Life Is Beautiful (Night Of Thunder) by 3/4-of-a-length. Zia Agnese (Romanised), carrying a three-pound penalty for her G3 Prix Cleopatre success, kept on well to finish a head adrift in third. Pedigree Notes Cankoura, who becomes the first pattern-race winner for her second crop sire, is the fifth of eight foals and one of four scorers out of dual Group 2-winning G1 Prix Vermeille second Candarliya (Dalakhani), herself a full-sister to Listed Prix Scaramouche victrix Canndera and a half to multiple stakes-winning GII Belmont Gold Cup Invitational, GIII Stars And Stripes Stakes and GIII Sycamore Stakes placegetter Canessar (Kendargent). The January-foaled homebred grey is a half-sister to G3 Prix de la Grotte victrix Candala (Frankel), the dual stakes-placed Carini (Siyouni), the hitherto unraced 2-year-old colt Candizal (Zarak), a yearling colt by Siyouni and a weanling filly by Baaeed.

What Darwin Cup Day 2025 Where Fannie Bay Racecourse – Dick Ward Dr, Fannie Bay NT 0820 When Monday, August 4, 2025 First Race 11:52am ACST Visit Dabble Cup Day at Fannie Bay features a 10-race program on the sand (Good) with the rail true and fine conditions. First jumps at 11:52am ACST; the Darwin Cup is Race 10 (5:30pm, 2050m, $200k). Expect typical Darwin dynamics: on-speed/handy runners can be hard to catch, but strong, sustained closers are lethal late at 2000m+. Darwin Cup tip: Hadouken Last year’s Cup winner Hadouken sets up beautifully to go back-to-back over 2050m. He arrives race-fit after taking the Chief Minister’s (1600m) on July 12 and draws barrier 3 to secure an economical run behind the speed. With 58.5kg under the handicap, he meets several key rivals fairly and brings the ideal Darwin profile: tractable, tough, and able to quicken on the sand. Expect a positive ride from Blake Shinn to hold a pair or three back the fence before peeling at the 300m. Feature Tip Race 10 – #3 Hadouken (3) 7yo Gelding | T: Peter Robl | J: Blake Shinn (58.5kg) Best Bet at Darwin: Dakota Lee The Top End’s sprint queen Dakota Lee returns to her pet 1000m and simply brings superior ratings to this field. Even lumping 63kg, her gate speed and Fannie Bay record make her the one they must pass. With Blake Shinn partnering Zourata and a couple of others injecting tempo, expect genuine speed—perfect for Dakota Lee to stalk, then unleash her trademark 400–200m burst. She’s 4:3-0-0 at the trip locally and handles firm sand. If she begins cleanly and lands within two lengths of the lead, her class should carry her late. Best Bet Race 4 – #1 Dakota Lee (5) 7yo Mare | T: Terry Gillett | J: TBC (63kg) Next Best at Darwin: Stormfront Stormfront brings the right platform into the 1600m handicap. He’s a seasoned Fannie Bay miler with a sustained finishing style, and the booking of Blake Shinn is a significant plus. From gate eight he can slide across to a stalking position one-off, avoiding kickback before building from the 700m—exactly the pattern that wins at Fannie Bay- and especially here on Cup Day when pressure comes early and often. He cops a +2kg penalty, but his current ratings say he can absorb it. With a clean run into the bend, Stormfront should prove strongest through the last 150m. Next Best Race 6 – #4 Stormfront (8) 5yo Gelding | T: Peter Robl | J: Blake Shinn (60kg) Monday quaddie tips for Darwin Darwin quadrella selections Monday, August 4, 2025 1-2-5 1-2-3 1-4 2-3-5 Horse racing tips View the full article -
I suspect serious punters might be on the way out, especially in Sport which was where Entain were expecting growth to come from, no serious punter is going to wager on test Cricket and the likes like they did on Betfair, most punters are fun, most turnover comes from serious ones, simple aye. -
Serious punters dont bet into tote pools, fixed odds if they are still allowed to wager what they want? The TAB doesnt want all punters, only ones that are wagering every race and the ones that are going to lose mostly! Flawed business plan as it has a big flow on effect that is damaging the industry. -

Could have done that by all means. Certainly a colourful legend.There has been some good writeups including that by Dennis Ryan on loveracing. The time I met him in the eighties I remember he wasn't all that glowing about the honesty of Queensland racing as well as the politics there. As for more modern journalists I hope there is some award or acknowledgement at the end of season get togethers for Jamie Searle.
