Matt Young’s Monday Pinjarra Preview Posted on January 23, 2026January 23, 2026 | Posted by Matt Young Race 1 MAJESTIC GA GA (6) is in rare air and looks to go on her winning way here, should get the job done as she has the versatility to win from anywhere, will be short in the market though. LUVAFLAIR (10) must overcome a tricky draw with plenty of traffic around but will be running on strongly. THAT’S NOT MY GAIT (2) normally improves when getting back to Pinjarra grade races, but she hasn’t been at her best, looks a novelty chance with ELISH STAR (4) and ALDEBARAN SUNDOWN (5). MRIYA DREAM (9) comes in fresh and was racing well, do prefer him up on speed though. Tips: 6 10 2 5 Suggested Bet: MAJESTIC GA GA/LUVAFLAIR to Exacta. Race 2 SEASIDE SERENADE (2) trialled up beautifully and looks to be highly talented, nice sized filly who can start her career off with a win. EDGE ELEVEN (1) is nicely drawn and improved nicely from first to second trial. LE JONGLEUR (7) trialled well, won basically untouched and with the plugs in, from a good family and must be respected. HEZ THE BOSS (6) took some winding up but is also a recent trial winner, draw makes it tricky. Tips: 2 1 7 6 Suggested Bet: SEASIDE SERENADE (2) to win. Race 3 CROWD PLEEZER (7) improves every time he steps out and was a big winner last time out after doing plenty in the first lap, will be heading forward and hard to beat again. BUTTER ME UP (11) is consistent, he must overcome a tricky draw but has depth and will be running on well. MAJOR MOVES (8) will need a touch of luck from the draw but has ability, looked to have them beaten in both of his recent runs and couldn’t land the final blow. THE BLACK CHERRY (2) could improve into novelty contention with the early speed. ARMA MUSHU (9) was good last time out and can position up handy to them. Tips: 7 11 8 9 Suggested Bet: CROWD PLEEZER (7) to win. Race 4 SLAMMA ALABAMA (10) is a speedy type who resumes here, he has good high speed and although it is quite hard to win these events from the back line, I think he will go close. IM EUGENE (6) can improve in this; his form has been sound and can do some work in this grade. GEARSINAWHIRL (2) has options from the draw, should lead early and can finish in the money. VISITING HOURS (4) could be an improver, should settle close enough. SUNPATRA (3) going just soundly, novelty chance. Tips: 10 6 4 2 Suggested Bet: SLAMMA ALABAMA (10) to win. Race 5 WALL STREET GIRL (7) is racing well, she worked hard in a quick part of the race last time out and stuck it out strongly, wide draw at the mile will be tricky but she has depth and looks hard to hold out. DREAM CONTROL (5) was disappointing when leading last time out, she is a quick beginner and comes in fresh here, could bounce back to form. OUR LILILOU (9) is a total forgive last run, left without cover is not her go, she will be hoping for a hot tempo. LILLIE QUEEN (4) needs to get out the gate better but has depth, can handle the class rise and finish in the money. FUNKY MUSIC (2) is a novelty chance with BLOCKJORG (3). Tips: 7 5 9 4 Suggested Bet: WALL STREET GIRL (7) to win. Race 6 YOU FLY WITH ME (1) gets the draw, gets the distance and was a big winner at this track and trip in his most recent win, looks hard to catch again. STAPLETON (6) is one that will charge off the arm and can do the work outside them, nice win last start and he loves this trip. STIRUP IRON JACK (3) should be close enough to them, did it at both ends last start. TA IN ADVANCE (7) is capable but the draw hurts. Novelty chances to BEALAWYER (2), DANGER (4) and HEZ SPECIAL (5). Tips: 1 6 3 2 Suggested Bet: YOU FLY WITH ME (1) to win. Race 7 Open race here. STAR CASINO (11) is the class of the field but 50m is never an easy task, he can run the times required to still win the race but wouldn’t want to be diving in too short. EN PARIANT SUR (5) could potentially lead early, and he is back in consistent form. BARBADOS (4) had his chance last time out at the short course, normally steps safe. BLAMEITONTHENIGHT (3) needs a safe getaway but shouldn’t be far away. MY LITTLE BIG MAN (6) returned well but faces a tricky draw, will be fitter. LUKES MISTAKE (7) is racing well, could weave through them and land handy, he could win if he led. BEAT THE BANK (8) needs to step safe to play a part but his last few runs have been decent. OUR MAJOR JACK (10) racing well. TRIROYALE BRIGADE (9) capable. Very tough race. Tips: 11 5 3 7 Suggested Bet: EN PARIANT SUR (5) each way. Race 8 COMO EL VIENTO (12) is racing in sparkling form, faces another challenge from the back row and continues to climb in grade but will be there at the pointy end. GOODTIME LOUIS (3) has the speed to lead and comes in fresh, likely to run a big race here. MISTER LINTON (2) has the nice draw and is a novelty chance on return but there is plenty of depth in the race. BLING IT UP (4) was very keen last time out and will likely be driven for one run today. CAPTAIN SAID SO (6) appeared to have every chance last time out, therefore looks more of a novelty chance in this with CLASSICAL ELLIE (7) who will have to get back and run home. ROLLINDOWNTHERIVER (9) needs the tempo on but is racing well. Tips: 12 3 9 2 Suggested Bet: GOODTIME LOUIS/COMO EL VIENTO to Quinella. Race 9 TUMBLIN DICE (5) has good early speed and could burn around and get to the top, ready to win and was a good run in defeat behind Como El Viento last time out. SOMETHING CERTAIN (4) was a good effort from the breeze last start, early speed a slight concern but expecting to run well. DAT LOVELY (1) has the nice draw and has options, could feature in the money. BALINGUP BOY (6) is racing well but once again must overcome a tricky draw. LORD PUBLISHER (10) will be running on and give an outside chance to SWEET DUNCAN (9) as I thought he wasn’t a bad effort last time out. Tips: 5 4 6 1 Suggested Bet: TUMBLIN DICE (5) to win.
