Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 3 Journalists Share Posted October 3 What Darwin Races Where Fannie Bay Racecourse – Dick Ward Dr, Fannie Bay NT 0820 When Saturday, October 5, 2024 First Race 2:12pm ACST Visit Dabble A total of 55 horses have accepted for the six-event meeting at Darwin on Saturday. It will be mostly sunny on Saturday with a possible shower and a top temperature of 35C. The rail will be in the true position, and Fannie Bay will be a good dirt surface for the meeting commencing at 2:12pm local time. BEST BET: Extreme Emotion Extreme Emotion is a last-start winner two weeks ago over 1300m (0-58) after settling behind runaway leader Ariarne before finishing strongly to seal victory by 1.6 lengths. The six-year-old mare certainly impressed enough to suggest that the extra 2kg will not necessarily pose a problem this weekend. Fourth over 1300m on August 3, the daughter of Extreme Choice was 0.8 lengths adrift in second place behind the in-form Yaki Ishi over 1300m (0-58) on August 31. If she holds her form, Extreme Emotion will be hard to beat in the Darwin opener. Best Bet Race 1 – #5 Extreme Emotion (5) 6yo Mare | T: Gary Clarke | J: Jarrod Todd (58kg) Bet with Bet365 NEXT BEST: Ariarne Ariarne did little wrong a fortnight ago when second behind Extreme Emotion after setting a cracking pace out in front. Ariarne was gallant in the home straight before waving the white flag with 100m to go, and the shorter trip could be the difference on Saturday. Under a well-rated ride from Stan Tsaikos, Ariarne will look to run her rivals off their feet in the second leg of the quaddie. Next Best Race 4 – #2 Ariarne (4) 5yo Mare | T: Neil Dyer | J: Stan Tsaikos (58kg) Bet with PlayUp BEST VALUE: Zoumist An early $10 quote with horse racing bookmakers, Zoumist rarely runs a bad race and loves running on the pace. In June, she was fourth in open company (1200m) before striking late interference that proved costly over 1200m. Zoustar’s daughter was second in the 1200m Rosebowl for fillies and mares in July during the Darwin Carnival. A third over 1200m (0-66) in August was followed by a second over 1100m (0-64) two weeks ago. Dropping 2.5kg in weight, Zoumist can end a long drought. Best Value Race 3 – #11 Zoumist (9) 7yo Mare | T: Angela Forster | J: Sonja Logan (56kg) Bet with Neds Saturday Darwin quaddie tips – 5/10/2024 Darwin quadrella selections Saturday, October 5, 2024 2-6-8-11 1-2-3-4 2-4-5 1-3-4-6 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
