[h=1]Royal Randwick Betting: Can Pierro set a 3 year old weight carrying record in the Doncaster Handicap?[/h]

t563_574_371330-pierro.jpg RANDWICK RACE 8 @ 4:15pm AEST: The Doncaster Handicap is a 1600m Group 1 race for 3 year olds and upwards where the 2.98 favourite with Betfair is PIERRO. HOW THE RACE WILL BE RUN: The speed looks good without being crazy. Any race with Glass Harmonium in where he doesn't miss the kick is run at a good tempo. He will lead barring missing the start, PIERRO and VEYRON from inside gates settle close to the speed with RED TRACER and MONTON coming across from the extreme outside to settle handy but wide or they could push on towards the lead. STREAMA is versatile and with Glen Boss on board she might be another who goes forward. NORZITA and ALMA’S FURY won’t be too far away whilst the remainder of the field settle midfield or beyond in a race where all runners will get their chance barring bad luck and track bias. RACE ANALYSIS: Terrific edition of the Doncaster Handicap. PIERRO has been installed a short priced favourite after winning 3 from 3 this preparation to be undefeated in 10 starts in Sydney. His last two victories have been at weight for age in open company the last of which was a brave effort where he sat wide the entire journey and had to make substantial ground in the straight to get up and win, he did so by just under a length or tighten his grip on this race. He has drawn the ideal barrier for a nice run just behind the leaders but the query has to be the weight swing some of his rivals are getting on him from his last two starts at WFA, even still he’ll be hard to beat but the price is too short. SOLZHENITSYN resumed in the Canterbury Stakes with an outstanding run which saw him wide with no cover for most the trip but still found the line strongly to finish just 2.3 lengths away from PIERRO carry 3kgs more than him. http://www.betzone.com.au/royal-randwick-betting-can-pierro-set-a-3-year-old-weight-carrying-record-in-the-doncaster-handicap--20130422

Re: Randwick Betting 20/04/2013 [h=1]Royal Randwick Betting: The Patinack Farm Australian Oaks looks to be headed across the Tasman[/h]

t564_a46_Habibi_1356507691_n.jpg RANDWICK RACE 7 @ 3:35pm AEST: The Patinack Farm Australian Oaks is a Group 1 2400m race for 3 year old fillies where the 3.55 favourite with Betfair is HABIBI. HOW THE RACE WILL BE RUN: The speed looks ok. SHES A GIRL or LONGPORT lead. MORE THAN SACRED will box seat from ROYAL DECENT and CAMEO who will come across from wide barriers. HABIBI should enjoy a nice run in transit 5th or 6th on the rails while the remainder of the field will settle midfield or beyond in a race where all runners will get their chance barring bad luck or track bias. RACE ANALYSIS: The Kiwi runners look to have a firm hand on this years Australian Oaks with HABIBI and also MORE THAN SACRED looking like terrific chances in the race. HABIBI took on the boys 2 starts ago in the Group 1 New Zealand Derby and defeated them in what was a terrific staying performance. She was then the best part of 5 weeks between runs when she made her Australian debut in the Stormhill, where she got warm late and closed well in a run that suggested she’ll need the 2400m of the Oaks to be at her most effective. She looks to have drawn ideally in barrier 3 and jockey Vinnie Coglan has a terrific association with her.
