    • Back in the day Pick 6 @ Harness  was my favourite and most successful bet. But overall the interest fell away. Pools were small took an age to ramp up and  we at the TAB found it tied up too many punters betting money. We like more races , quickfire and wall to wall ...sprint races use less time  etc Free bets etc Quaddies much preferred. Some people remember doubles fondly but a relic of a past era !
    • What is her best distance....what will it be as an older horse ? She performed very well in some of her Group placings in Aussie ...including winning .....so is a very versatile mare who handles most track conditions !
    • What Canterbury Races Where Canterbury Park Racecourse – King St, Canterbury NSW 2193 When Wednesday, September 10, 2025 First Race 1:35pm AEST Visit Dabble Canterbury Park Racecourse hosts a seven-race program this Wednesday afternoon, with the action commencing at 1:35pm AEST. A stack of rain is forecast for Sydney, meaning the track is likely to be in the Heavy range throughout the day. Here are HorseBetting.com.au’s top tips for the Canterbury races on September 10. Best Bet at Canterbury: Central Coast Central Coast impressed in his two runs during his debut campaign. He went down narrowly to the handy Autumn Boy on debut at this track before returning on a Soft 6 to down Crossbow, who has since gone on to impress in Saturday company in Melbourne. Central Coast has had two soft trials leading into this, and as long as he can handle the heavy deck, Chris Waller’s runner should be a class above this lot. Best Bet Race 5 – #11 Central Coast (4) 3yo Colt | T: Chris Waller | J: James McDonald (55.5kg) Next Best at Canterbury: Officiate Officiate went around at a huge price first-up when finishing a close second on a Heavy 9 at Randwick-Kensington. That run looks even better when you factor in that he lost a plate along the way. James McDonald will have him settled in a handy position from barrier two, and with natural improvement, Officiate should win this time. Next Best Race 2 – #3 Officiate (2) 3yo Colt | T: Chris Waller | J: James McDonald (57.5kg) Best Value at Canterbury: Nordic Viking Nordic Viking was more than competitive in some tough juvenile assignments last season, including a two-length defeat to King Of Pop in the Group 3 Black Opal Stakes (1200m). The son of So You Think is bred to handle the rain-affected going, and with a bit of pressure engaged, the race sets up perfectly for Molly Bourke to have Nordic Viking camped off the speed. He’ll be savaging the line over 1200m at a nice each-way price with horse racing bookmakers. Best Value Race 3 – #7 Nordic Viking (5) 3yo Colt | T: John Sargent | J: Molly Bourke (a2) (57kg) Wednesday quaddie tips for Canterbury Canterbury quadrella selections Wednesday, September 10, 2025 1-3-8 7-11 1-2-3-6-14 2-3-4-7-8-12 Horse racing tips View the full article
    • The Walker horses you CAN'T forget www.racing.com The G1 1600-metre classics of the Caulfield and Thousand Guineas are a little more than a month away but that hasn’t dulled the dream for a number of owners who on Tuesday paid the nomination fees for their still unraced hopefuls. The $3 million Caulfield Guineas (1600m) on October 11 attracted 119 nominations by the noon deadline on Tuesday with 10 of those entries for horses yet to make their debuts. In the $1.5 million Thousand Guineas (1600m) on October 18, there were 106 nominations with 17 of those yet to have their first start. The clock is certainly ticking for these horses to be ready to run at 1600 metres in four or five weeks’ time, so expect to see a flood of them kicking off shortly. Among those entries for unraced horses are seven from star Cranbourne and New Zealand trainer Mark Walker. You’d expect most of these will start their careers in the next two weeks, so let’s take a closer look at them. MARK WALKER’S UNRACED THOUSAND GUINEAS ENTRIES Sattva (Savabeel – Mawzoona): Been placed in two of her three trials to date. Bred to run as has Black Caviar’s granddam Scandinavia in her pedigree. Merrow (Ancient Spirit – Erin’s Babe): Has not been placed in any of her four trials to date but in her pedigree is Patrick Erin, who won the 2018 G1 Metropolitan (2400m) for Chris Waller. May Be Bubbles (Lonhro – Tracy May): Unplaced in both her trials, she is the first foal of mare Tracy May, who’s granddam Tracey’s Element produced the Australian Horse Of The Year in Typhoon Tracy. Lyrics ‘N’ Song (Written Tycoon – Melody Belle): Has been placed in both her trials so far and will generate any amount of interest as she is the first foal of the 14-time G1 winning mare Melody Belle. Girt By Sea (Ocean Park – Baggy Green): Managed to be placed once in her four trials but is out of a great producing mare who has already had the likes of stakes winners Tofane, No Compromise, Benaud and Bradman. Get Honor (Savabeel – Honor): Unplaced in all three trials, she is bred to get some ground being out of the family of the likes of handy staying type Ecuador. MARK WALKER’S UNRACED CAULFIELD GUINEAS ENTRY Hostility (I Am Invincible – Shillelagh): Hasn’t even been to the trials as yet but bred to be a star as by Australia’s champion sire out of the former Chris Waller-trained mare Shillelagh, who won the G1 Cantala Stakes (1600m) in 2017 and the G1 Empire Rose Stakes over the same course at Flemington 12 months later. First acceptances for both G1 Guineas races are taken on September 23. TO VIEW THE CAULFIELD GUINEAS CONTENDERS CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE THOUSAND GUINEAS CONTENDERS CLICK HERE
    • He signed off his first Hong Kong stint with a flurry of winners and now Richard Kingscote is hoping to pick up where he left off after a golden summer back home in the United Kingdom. Successful with four of the final 11 rides of his stint as injury cover earlier this year – including a Sha Tin dirt treble – Kingscote orchestrated Group One boil-overs aboard Time For Sandals in the Commonwealth Cup and Qirat in the Sussex Stakes – the latter at a record 150-1 – before turning his attention back...View the full article
