#5 Slick Sniper has the right formlines for this - 4th in the Scone Cup, and city form since doesn't have flash numbers, but some good horses finishing ahead of him. Will race very handy from barrier 4.

#7 Mr Armstrong was beaten 2.8 lengths by Woorim & Listen Son in a G3 1350m at Doomben. Never started over 1600m but two wins over 1500m. Last start was OK at Randwick in the mud.

#10 Gazza Guru - stablemate to Sincero is 2nd up from a let up. Has form around Scottish Border and G1 winner Murjulisa Lass back in the early Autumn.

Liam Birchley won a lot of races last year.

Has two runners tomorrow

Liam Birchley
Race 2	SNIP 'N' AWAY	Robert Thompson
Race 6	DIAGO	Robert Thompson

The one in the 2nd race is an unraced Snippetson. Two 5ths in trials - would keep an eye on the betting.

Got a nice quinella there with the 10 beating the 5, and had 5,7,10-5,7,10-1,5,7,10,17 in the trifecta for a nice collect also - didn't think to have a first 4

Really like the look of TEMPLE OF BOOM in the Ramorie, hasn't had much luck this time in and the Fish gets TOB in really well at the weights.

I pasted the acceptances into the opening post.

In the Ramornie, I think TEMPLE OF BOOM is a good chance and have taken the $2.35. The stable is certainly due for a change of fortune.

I thought MEET GEORGE would be right in it from the rails. He was $3.50 the drum. Looks fair to me. He has the right right form.

any thoughts on HDA ?? headcase but he's never dissapointed on good tracks , should have won the oakleigh plate easily

obv has passed his barrier tests , by far the best 1200m horse in this race - and wasn't out of form when sold

good luck to trainer who took on him on , i'll be with him , and best of luck to the jock that has to sit on him in barriers (at least he is wide , remember it was gate 1, he always had trouble with)

I'm with ya mate, won 2 or 3 trials up there recently also. I mean that Oakleigh form's only 3 starts back...

$4.20 is generous knowing that if right 60+ will not stop him, but still a fair if with this horse isnt it.

50% WINNING strike rate on good tracks, near 50% WINNING strike rate 1st up... Alas, a head case is a head case.

Why is Black Piranha lining up here.

If he was mine there is no way he would be running in a listed race at Grafton in July with 61kgs. Thumb Down

Yeah Cal I reckon he's well under the odds too, which is another reason I'm tempted to jump on the Angel with Seal...
