The Money Trail

Scarf has been backed in the last

We have the information from the main races around the country.

Randwick hosts racing for the first time since Sydney Cup day back in April.

SR1 - Decent looking 2yo event to kick off with. We have seen money come for Jason Coyle's Lady Be Great ($9 to $5.50).

SR2 - A very progressive 3yo Benchmark race has some potential horses of the future. There has been some very wide specking on Zabeel Babe at $101 now upped in trip.

SR3 - This mile handicap has a good spread of weights with Chris Waller playing a key role. Some light was shone on Bart's Mr Edison ($17 to $15) and also Linbob from Kembla at $21 to $18.

SR4 - Looks quite a competitive Open Sprint and on the wet going some money is there for Yoberg ($15 to $11).

SR5 - Value may be there for Awesome Image ($51 to $23) as Craig Carmody looks to win back to back metropolitan weekends. But the good filly She Must Be Obeyed is $5.50 to $4.

SR6 - In the Ken Callander Fellowship Hcp, it is a race with plenty of Chris Waller interest. Appropriate then that one who has been backed is Mutawarath ($18 to $11). Another on the limit given a good hope is Sir Fox ($4.60 to $4.20).

SR7 - Again it is the Waller yard which is heavy in this event and two have been taken by the punters. The Verminator is $5 to $4.60 while Contract Caterer is $7.50 to $6.50.

SR8 - We see an incredibly open last race where there should be value a plenty. Interest is there for Scarf in from $9 to $6.

MR1 - A competitive little 3yo begins the races in Melbourne and two have been admired early. Limerock is $10 to $7 from the Moody yard while Arinosa is $8 to $7.

MR2 - Interesting play here on the Hayes runner Jalsah ($11 to $7) after her good run at Morphettville on their Super Sunday.

MR3 - In this 2yo sprint the fav The Counterfeiter is tight at $3.80 but a small amount has come for Sport Chic at $12.

MR4 - Many moves in short course scamper. Innocent Gamble resumes and is $11 to $6, Breitling has fluctuated a tad but is essentially $7.50 to $6.5 and Spurcific scored well recently and is $13 to $11.

MR5 - Changes up near the top of the weights at value. Secret Flyer starts another campaign and is $12 to $10, Magical Pearl similarly ran consistently last time in without winning and is $17 to $14 and finally Morgan Dollar who has run some decent races here is $18 to $11.

MR6 - Interesting move against the short priced stable mate with Believe 'n Achieve ($7.50 to $7).

MR7 - Mile and a half races can be tricky but recent Warrnambool Cup placegetter Streaky Fella is $8 to $7.50.

MR8 - Again several plays in the mares race. Avionics is $14 to $9, Venus World has been $15 to $13 and a wide go for Lady Snake ($151 to $81) from Tasmania.

BR1 - Good go at odds in this for Adebisi ($21 to $8.50) as well as Audacious Spirit ($14 to $12) and the perennially backed Smokin' Joey ($8.50 to $7).

BR2 - Opening favourite is Work The Room and on the limit punters should come for him at $2.80.

BR3 - In an open Class 6, a little support is there for Alberton Park ($13 to $8.50).

BR4 - As with most 2yo races, there is often specking and so far we've seen Shanghai Bund ($6.50 to $4.40) and Pensive Dream ($71 to $35).

BR5 - With the 3yos now stretched to limits many haven't seen before in the Grand Prix, punters have taken a risk on a few. Turnitup for Peter Moody is $15 to $8, Mr Light Blue specked from $41 to $26, Alma's Fury ($21 to $17) who was stiff last time and The Chevron from Melbourne $26 to $13.

BR6 - A Brisbane Cup lead up is the Premier's Cup and the kiwi backing up after the Doomben Cup is The Hombre who is $15 to $6 in a massive go.

BR7 - Only one horse has been strongly supported in the G1 Doomben 10,000. Usually a vibrant betting contest, the top sprinter Hay List is $1.60 to $1.35 which means a substantial amount of confidence is placed on his broad shoulders.

BR8 - Fascinating entrant is Gold Trail off international efforts. He has been $21 to $12. There was also something small on Gundy Son ($6.50 to $6).
