David Shortte’s Saturday Cannington Preview Posted on November 13, 2026November 13, 2026 | Posted by David Shortte Meeting Overview An excellent program with the Group 3 Sires On Ice WA Young Stars Classic over the 520 metres drawing together a magnificent group of up and coming chasers. Tips for Race 2 – the Group 3 Sires On Ice WA Young Stars Classic Final 1st – 5 Clem Fandango 2nd – 3 Stan Monelli 3rd – 2 Reginald Barkley 4th – 1 Margi Jean Best Bets 1-4 STINGER DRAW : I love the way this fellow hit the line last week when placed in a Young Stars Heat after finding lots of trouble in the early stages of that race. Can sit handy here and from there will be very strong in the back half of the event. I have plenty of respect for Rex Havoc in box two who has shown plenty of early zip and I think they are the most likely duo to quinella the event. 4-7 GREAT CHAT : Speedy beginner who has been in wonderful form with his last 9 starts delivering 6 wins and 3 seconds. Once again looks the most likely winner but no great value in his win price so I will be looking to get involved with Trifectas and First Fours or Same Race Multis with Great Chat up front and number 8 Garritty to run second or third with the field around them. Garritty is a fairy floss bandit and with clear running should run top 3 at nice odds. 7-6 JUST A SAPPHIRE : Front running stayer who is in a purple patch of form with wins at her last two starts here over the 715 metres in times of 42.35 and 42.25. Steps up in class to Free For All company now so it will be harder but racing in peak form and I thought the $4 on offer did represent a bit of value. The clear danger is the odds on favourite and kennelmate West On Menace who loves box one – I’ll be playing them in my quinellas and trifectas.
