Heavily supported "Odds On" Favourites at Gloucester Park on a Friday night = a near perfect strike rate and when you have Kim Prentice on the second elect drawn the pole = 100% : )

I love the racing @ Gloucester Park but when you get a Cheerleader like Wes Cameron pointing out the obvious before races you know something is on the nose.

It's Gloucester Park, if a "Live" chance draws the pole the lead is not relinquished. When a horse drawn outside what appears to be the likely leader (that likely leader often opens equal Fav or marginally longer) is backed as if unbeatable, as Wes says "the money tells me that this horse will be finding the front". The fact is, unless these horses are "guaranteed" the front, you couldn't substantiate the volume of support for them.

Friday night, Soho Highroller in the 5th, the tote SP was $1.60. TAB fixed, Betfair and the corporates had it much shorter.

The two big goes on Friday night however were My Hard Copy and Selkie. Both opened marginally in the black and by post time were $1.25 across the board. A week earlier, My Hard Copy drawn the pole, gifted the lead the Slick Chapel, there was an avalanche of support for the latter. On Friday night, My Hard Copy was drawn outside a stablemate that opened a close second elect and who was expected to hold up, well until the support for My Hard Copy said otherwise. Less said about Selkie's race the better, where it didn't go to plan for a furlong or so before the Punters Best Friend KP worked his magic.

Let's just say, Friday night would of been a good night for Crown Perth. I have a buy rating on the stock, CWN for the mugs at home : )
