Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 5, 2023 Journalists Share Posted October 5, 2023 What Kalgoorlie Cup Day 2023 Where Kalgoorlie Racecourse – 14 Meldrum Ave, Kalgoorlie WA 6430 When Saturday, October 7, 2023 First Race 12:04pm AWST Visit Ladbrokes The Kalgoorlie-Boulder Racing Club will host its marquee meeting on Saturday afternoon, with the Listed Kalgoorlie Cup headlining the nine-race program. Warm and dry weather is expected all weekend, which should mean the track remains at the current Good 4 rating for the whole day. The rail will go back to the true position, with the first race set to jump at 12:04pm AWST. Kalgoorlie Cup Tip: Villeins Last-start Boulder Cup winner Villeins will be seeking to do the Cup double at Kalgoorlie. The Grant & Alana Williams-trained gelding has been in great form this preparation, recording three wins from seven starts, while he hasn’t finished outside the top two in his last four runs. At his most recent start, this son of Domesday made his way through the field and kicked clear at the 200m mark to run away with a dominant victory over 2100m. Stepping up to 2300m should be no problem, especially from a great barrier (2). Kalgoorlie Cup Race 8 – #3 Villeins (2) 5yo Gelding | T: Grant & Alana Williams | J: Chris Parnham (58kg) +140 with Boombet Best Bet at Kalgoorlie: Californication After going down by the barest of margins at Belmont over 1600m last start, Californication from the Paul Rowe yard heads home seeking his fourth win from his fifth start at Kalgoorlie. This four-year-old gelding overraced during the middle stages last time out, and even after doing things wrong, he was only beaten by a nose. Joseph Azzopardi will have his first sit on this son of Preferment, and if he can find a good spot midfield and allow this guy to build his revs around the home turn, Californication should be able to run over the top of the leaders late. Best Bet Race 9 – #4 Californication (8) 4yo Gelding | T: Paul Rowe | J: Joseph Azzopardi (57kg) +100 with Betfair Next Best at Kalgoorlie: Men’s Club The Paul Fernie-trained Men’s Club will be seeking a fifth win from 11 Kalgoorlie starts when he lines up in this 1300m RTG 72+ Handicap. This son of Rommel won the Coolgardie Sprint at this track and trip two starts back before finishing ninth of 13 in the Open Sprint last start. With only one other speed influence in this contest, Chris Parnham should be able to find the lead with this five-year-old gelding. If he can find the front with minimal effort and kick off the home bend, Men’s Club should prove hard to run down. Next Best Race 7 – #6 Men’s Club (4) 5yo Gelding | T: Paul Fernie | J: Chris Parnham (55.5kg) +300 with PendleburyBet Best Value at Kalgoorlie: Wanna Cracker After two good performances to kick off his career, Wanna Cracker from the Paul Fernie stable will take on a 1200m maiden to open the card. This three-year-old gelding will be on the quick backup after finishing fourth at this track over 1100m on October 4, where he missed the kick slightly and settled near the back of the field before running on nicely. On Saturday, this son of Galah will get an extra 100m and should be able to push forward and settle behind the likely leader, Mining Legend. With an economical run and a bit of luck on the home turn, Wanna Cracker should give them something to chase in the final 200m. Best Value Race 1 – #9 Wanna Cracker (3) 3yo Gelding | T: Paul Fernie | J: Clint Johnston-Porter (56kg) +1100 with Dabble Saturday quaddie tips for Kalgoorlie Cup Day Kalgoorlie quadrella selections Saturday, October 7, 2023 1-4-6 1-3-6 3-5 1-4 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
