13:40 Visit Perth Museum Maiden Hurdle Race (GBB Race)
We named the winnerClass 4 · 2m0f47y · Good · 7 ran
Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Try Them (13/8)
Won by: Try Them (IRE) at 7/4F · then Crackalackin (IRE)
What we said: Second last time out over today's trip and going, with a full jumps CV showing 5 completions from 6 starts and course experience already banked at this circuit. The form line reads F55-02, trending the right way with back-to-back competitive efforts, and at OR109 he rates above his market rivals in this maiden.
14:15 QuinnBet Novices' Limited Handicap Steeple Chase (GBB Race)
Did not winClass 3 · 2m4f20y · Good · 5 ran
Our bet: Tamarind Bay (13/8)
Won by: Glen To Glen (IRE) at 10/1 · then Ras Kassar (FR)
What we said: Ran to exactly today's conditions last time out, winning at the same trip and same going just 48 days ago, and he's completed 13 of his 14 starts over fences, showing the jumping fluency this shorter novice trip demands. He's the classiest horse in this small field on official rating and carries his topweight accordingly rather than as a burden, with the course and distance form to back it up.
14:50 IM Group Handicap Hurdle Race
We named the winnerClass 4 · 2m4f35y · Good · 11 ran
Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Follow Charlie (4/1)
Won by: Follow Charlie (IRE) at 7/2F · then Annie Agnew (GB), Summergrounds (GB)
What we said: Won last time out at this course over 16f and now steps up to today's trip fresh off a strong current-form run of 33141 on this same good going, with a spotless completion record of 30 from 30 hurdles starts. The course and going match line up cleanly with today's conditions, and the yard clearly has him firing right now.
15:32 Malcolm Group Handicap Hurdle Race
Did not winClass 5 · 2m7f207y · Good · 11 ran
We passed. Likely winner: Drumlee Myth (7/2)
Won by: Dolly Dior (GB) at 10/1 · then Magic Gloves (IRE), Broken Ice (IRE)
What we said: Too many credible in-form types here for a confident single pick: Drumlee Myth won last time and only steps up 2f on the same ground, Dalileo won last time at this exact course, trip and going with a huge course CV behind him, Dolly Dior is on an upward curve (4-1-2) and October Hill arrives as the highest-rated runner from a smart yard. None of them separates clearly enough from the others at the prices on offer to make a stand.
16:05 Scone Estates Stone Of Destiny Handicap Hurdle Race (GBB Race)
PlacedClass 2 · 2m0f47y · Good · 8 ran
Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Filibustering (7/2)
Won by: Nap Hand (IRE) at 5/1 · then Fidendum (GB), Filibustering (GB)
What we said: Two course-and-distance-friendly wins on the spin (851-11) with the going figures reading 5-1-1-1 across the last four starts, a spotless 9-from-9 jumping record, and a drop back to today's shorter trip after running well over 17f last time all point to a horse peaking at the right moment. He's rated the field's best on official figures and looked the strongest traveller of the in-form pair when winning last time out.
16:40 Brooks Macdonald Handicap Steeple Chase
We named the winnerClass 5 · 2m7f180y · Good · 7 ran
We passed. Likely winner: Button Rock (7/2)
Won by: Button Rock (IRE) at 9/2 · then McGregors Charge (GB)
What we said: too many plausible types here: Button Rock arrives on the back of a course win and the shortest fair price, but he's stepping up close to 4f in trip with minimal experience there, while Edgewell strings together two straight wins and has a fuller book of form at this trip, and Collingham owns the best rating of the lot despite a patchier recent line — nothing separates them enough to lean on with real money. Shantou Show pulled up last time under top weight and Le Malin is respected but has drifted, muddying the picture further.
17:15 Scone Palace International Horse Trials National Hunt Flat Race (Conditional & Amateur Jockeys' Race) (GBB Race)
Did not winClass 5 · 2m0f47y · Good · 4 ran
Not a bet. The horse we made most likely: Downtown Nashville (6/4)
Won by: Game Shadow (IRE) at 13/8
What we said: Carries the field's clear form and quality edge with a PR of 109, well clear of the next-best PR of 96, and comes into this race after a competitive third of eleven just 31 days ago over the same course, trip and going. That fresh, form-matching run contrasts with market rival Game Shadow's 78-day gap since his last start, a layoff band that has proven a genuine mild drag on returning horses.
