There are plenty of races on today's meetings, with both Sydney and Melbourne hosting ten events each. One of the rules I follow strictly as a punter is to be very selective in what race I invest in. After all you want the race to be run to suit your selection, speed maps are important as well as distances and the number of runners.
I got some inside mail from the Gold Coast today and the race map shows he will lead easy and make it a one-horse affair. Just like last Wednesday selection Romantic Journey. If your looking for today's free tip see below....

Video Reviews By Paul Joice
Sydney by Paul Joice Kensington 23/9/08
Detroit Song – Broke through at fourth race start when up to 1800m and looks a real stayer in the making. Trained at Goulburn by Rick Worthington, this strong looking five-year-old son of Carnegie settled midfield on the rails with Larry Cassidy allowing him to stride-up three wide from the 500m. Had a bit to do turning for home but stretched out in great style and surged to the lead. Out of a Zabeel mare it’s a matter of how far
Canterbury 24/9/08
The Astronomer
Everyone with a TV or set of binoculars has found this one so be wary of it’s price when next at the races, but, you had to be mightily impressed by the debut win. The Guy Walter/Glen Boss combination was in trouble early when The Astronomer was checked/tightened and steadied off heels on settling. Losing his position the task became even more difficult at the 600m mark when again forced to steady and hook to the outside. Widest into the straight and still five lengths off the leaders it was an amazing finishing burst which saw The Astronomer round them up and stick his head out right on the post. Huge win, some query on what he beat and Canterbury can be a flattering course.
Randwick 27/9/08
Emperor Bonaparte
Arguably should have beaten Rhyno Chaser in the Dulcify (1800m). Slow into stride Jeff Lloyd allowed him to lob along in last position. Coming to the turn the speed quickened with Emperor Bonaparte travelling strongly but waiting for the final shot at them. Lloyd’s decision to save ground into the straight was a contentious one and between the 400-275m he had to weave a path through some tiring runners. Once balanced-up at the 250m he really charged to the line but the bird had flown. Bred to stay and races like a stayer. Hairy – Had no luck in the Nivison (1200m) and should have finished much, much closer than her official 4.8 lens 10th. Drew well in the capacity field and settled nicely midfield one off the fence. Travelling strongly into the straight Hairy was beginning to wind-up when raced very tight inside the final 150m and could not be fully tested. Went to the post hard held and with clear running would have been fighting out the finish. Perhaps next time.
Melbourne by Brad WatersMoonee Valley 24/09/08
Vigor The Danny O'Brien stable has been unlucky in town recently and the run of Vigor was no exception at Moonee Valley. After having a nice trail in transit, the son of O’Reilly found trouble on the home turn when trying to angle out to make ground. Took a few strides to get balanced in the straight and was charging to the line when Raeburn got a miracle split to beat him by a whisker. Vigor is looking for more ground but his two runs from a spell indicate that a nice race will be his in the spring.
Prima Nova
This girl is one of the most durable mares going around. Anthony Cummings sent her around ten times in a very long autumn and winter preparation mid-year, performing with distinction throughout. At the Valley last Wednesday, Damien Oliver had her out the back on a day when it was very difficult to make ground out wide because of the configuration of the track. Once she got balanced in the straight, Prima Nova produced the best finish of the day to get beaten by a half-length after being six lengths off the lead at the 150 metres. All of Prima Nova’s best form has been in restricted class mares races, watch for her when placed properly.
Flemington - 28/09/08
Exceedingly Good
On first appearances, the run of Exceedingly Good was hardly worthy of a mention in a Racenet newsletter but a look at the weights shows exactly how good his effort was to be beaten a length and a quarter in open class. Exceedingly Good was weighted on the minimum with 53kg but was still disadvantaged at the weights against his older rivals. Most of his rivals carried less than weight-for-age but Exceedingly Good carried 2kg more than weight for age for a three-year-old colt. Colonel Parker and Chinchilla Rose carried weight-for-age in the race and were beaten by Exceedingly Good. Not many races are won by horses carrying more than weight-for-age.
