KILMORE R4 #12 XARPO
X3 STAKE WIN $13
First j/o I thought was okay late. Guessing went for a spell because months later I thought travelled well behind Close to Midnight and Pantelone. Recent j/o was snagged early to take a sit then jock asked to go a bit faster in the straight but then was quiet again on line, did look to go a bit faster when asked so might be a push button horse, usually want them to keep going but again might just do what has too, big enough odds to have something small on that question mark. Had to watch j/o about 15 times because wasn’t sure what to make of the opp, Can’t buy Love record is putrid but then had Worcester there who if memory is okay, can run along so a mixed bag there. Thought the raced ones have had no excuses. Express Yo’self has had enough chances now to win a maiden if was any good. Glamour Ana had every chance last start. Version first j/o was okay but was only 650m so just ignore. Would stake a bit higher but trainers percentage on my results is no good so they must j/o a bit better than what their ability actually is
MOONEE VALLEY R3 #7 ROSA AOTEAROA
X2.5 STAKE WIN $3.50
X2.5 STAKE WIN TOTE
#13 SPIONE
X1.25 STAKE WIN TOTE
Wanted to be against Rosa just because seen him being spruiked on TV and was well in the market but gave me no reason to be against, didn’t show much early days I think but looks to have improved. Jumped out with Always Enuff and if they were given a good test then could really up the staking but they all did it pretty easy, don’t want to knock that j/o though because Always Enuff came out and won a good Bendigo race recently. Recent j/o not sure if beat anything good hence can’t go deep into staking but was over 1000m and had most, if not all under riding behind and jock was softer on this guy and he put margin on them late, would think would find more if hit with the stick race day. Olive always been talked up a bit but not sure why, don’t think any good. Fortune Link can go in exotics, would have to improve a bit since that recent j/o to win I think. Judge Jenni goes in exotics. Same with Ville De Lumiere. Ville would have won a maiden by now if was any good, been in the bb for ages. SPIONE will have a saver on, did show in NSW does pick up when asked, hasn’t been asked much down here, could win if Rosa is weak race day
