Scott Embry’s Saturday Carnarvon Preview

Scott Embry’s Preview

Race 1

GERSHOM was a 64+ 1000m Carnarvon winner first-up, no trial last preparation and is now fresh into a 56+. If Tayla Stone finds the front with him he’ll be hard to beat. EXEXCEL is speedy and will be there for a long way. RULE’EMOFF looks a suitable Carnarvon type with early toe but draws awkwardly. RONBOY should win races over further for team Pateman as they head towards Broome.

Numbers: 2 – 1 – 8 – 6

Suggested Bet – GERSHOM WIN


Race 2

MYTHICAL TRUST should clear those to his inside and find the front. He is a wonderful jump and run dirt horse and with the 3kg claim is well weighted. His first-up effort on the grass was full of merit. WARPSODY has extremely strong form for a race of this nature. Brings a real X-Factor and if she handles the conditions could power over them. CALABRIA JOE has tapered off the last few months but earlier form was strong. ENZO THE BARBER never far away.

Numbers: 1 – 8 – 2 – 3

Suggested Bet – MYTHICAL TRUST WIN


Race 3

NOTHING IN BETWEEN has likely been saved for this for a fair while by the astute Hammarquist stable. They dominated Carnarvon last year and if Kate Southam can cross from the outside looks a capable type. PREMIO MOMENTO went well fresh down the 1000m straight at Pinjarra. Should measure up. THE DAINTREE is drawn poorly but goes well at the track and has some speed. ENACTMENT could burn early and find a position.

Numbers: 8 – 3 – 4 – 12

Suggested Bet – NOTHING IN BETWEEN EACHWAY


Race 4

GOOD MORNING was beaten out of sight first-up at Albany but should only improve for the run and improves onto the dirt. Could be the blow out horse. PORTRAIT LAO won 3 races at Carnarvon last season and looks a danger. ARGOON will be winning races for team Pateman, if he is wound up then he could go bang first-up. ESPRESSO LASS is not without a chance in this.

Numbers: 10 – 1 – 2 – 9

Suggested Bet – GOOD MORNING EACHWAY


Race 5

ROBYN’S SON has been consistent all preparation at Geraldton and should possess the necessary speed to work around the outside and take up a prominent position in the run. Looks his race to lose. STAR MAGNET was backed at odds in Geraldton and showed early toe. Could be worth inclusion. BAI BAI looked a capable type on debut at Carnarvon, keep safe. POPPIES does deserve to win one eventually.

Numbers: 3 – 10 – 11 – 8

Suggested Bet – ROBYN’S SON WIN


Race 6

DIAMOND JOLSON won a number of races last preparation leading all the way. If 4kg claimer Southam finds the fence it’ll be game on and she’ll be incredibly hard to reel in. ROSA FILENTE is yet to win one at the track after 11 attempts but is rock hard fit and is reunited with a rider who rides the track better than anyone. If she reproduces runs of two and three starts back she’ll be mighty hard to beat. CORRESPONDENT is more than capable on his day. MEGAMIND can gallop but has issues. If money comes, jump aboard.

Numbers: 1 – 9 – 2 – 3

Suggested Bet – DIAMOND JOLSON WIN
