Race-by-race tips and preview for Cessnock on Monday


READ MORE

Terrific little sprint for similar graded runners over the “scamper” course where there’s little or no room for hesitation around this track. Newcastle filly 3. Bubbles Ball, a flying daughter of Zoustar, returns for second prep off a nice trial. Just missed as a well backed favourite on debut at Muswellbrook in the spring before bolting in her maiden third-up at Coffs Harbour as an odds-on favourite. Will settle just off them, and get the last crack in the straight.
Dangers: Gosford four-year-old gelding 1. Go Joyce Go has to carry 60kg first-up for nine months, but fresh record is smart, and did win his latest trial at Gosford by zooming along in front. Wyong three-year-old gelding 2. Engadine also trialled nice ahead of first run in six months; while Wyong mare 5. Princess Snowy has had two even runs back from a spell in similar grade, but drawn out, and will have to fly the barriers to get across and hold this lot out.
How to play it: Bubbles Ball to win and trifecta 1-3/1-2-3-5


Race 3 CL1 HCP (1150m)


This sets up big for talented Newcastle filly 2. Jazette who scored a dominant win resuming at Taree crossing from a wide gate and giving nothing else a chance. Up in weight, but pattern suits this track, and looks the winner.
Dangers: Newcastle filly 4. Without Conviction will naturally get a fair way back from a wide draw, but can hit the line hard third-up off a good tempo so watch for her late. Muswellbrook filly 8. Pleasure Bomb won a weaker sprint third-up at Wauchope last start, and draws to get a nice run on speed; while Wyong filly 1. Snip ‘N’ Stare has had two runs back from a spell and looking for the extra journey, although will need a finely-tuned compass drawn the fence with 61kg around this course.
How to play it: Jazette to win and quinella 2 and 4.


Race 4 MAIDEN PLATE (1350m)


Looks a suitable and softer assignment second-up for improving Newcastle filly 3. Brazenbrook who led for a long way at Tuncurry, and even better suited here if she takes a sit and stalks the speed.
Dangers: Big watch on Warwick Farm filly and impressive trialler 9. Punch The Clock who resumes off a six-month break. Muswellbrook five-year-old gelding 2. Manno was brave enough from the front at just second run, and if he can get over from a wide barrier, will give a tonne of cheek on this smaller track. Expect sharp improvement at second career run from Wyong filly 6. Lavish Rose who was unwanted on debut at Newcastle, but experience and slightly longer trip are both plusses.
How to play it: Brazenbrook to win

World Cup Central: Dhoni, Akhtar, Botham in All Blacks all-time cricket XV

READ MORE Facebook Twitter Facebook Messenger Pinterest Email print World Cup fever has crossed platforms. There was Harry Kane sneaking into India’s training sessions to meet Virat Kohli. And now there’s the All Blacks picking a XV made up of past and present cricketers. With the @cricketworldcup underway in England, we’ve taken a look at all the best players from past and present to select the ultimate Cricket XV! SQUAD NOTES https://t.co/B3rnj5OBuJ #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/KuUtPU77PT — All Blacks (@AllBlacks) June 2, 2019 And they’ve got some pretty cool reasons for picking some pretty cool players. Curtly Ambrose : If anyone wants to argue with this selection then take it up with Sir Curtly himself. We dare you. MS Dhoni : The Richie McCaw of Cricket. Enough said. Dwayne Leverock : Famous for his one-handed catch at the 2003 World Cup, the 130kg Bermudian would surely make just as big a splash on the rugby field. Jofra Archer runs in to bowl  Get...

Banned Bancroft's journey of self-discovery

Image
READ MORE © Getty Images Spanish lessons, yoga and a host of community work have all been part of the path taken by Cameron Bancroft since the Newlands ball-tampering scandal. The Australia batsman has been looking to seek the sort of perspective and self-knowledge that will prevent him from following the kind of instructions issued to him by David Warner in the Cape Town dressing room. Bancroft spoke in Perth on Saturday ahead of his return to cricket via Twenty20 and 50-over appearances in the Northern Territory, where he will also endeavour to work closely in developing local talent. It’s the next step on the path away from Newlands as Bancroft serves a nine-month ban from the game imposed by Cricket Australia under its code of conduct. Perspective on life was greatly needed as Bancroft, Warner and the former captain Steven Smith pondered what evolved in South Africa, and Bancroft said he had spent plenty of time devoting himself broadening his own knowledge and also to...

Drones to become the new naval mine hunters under Morrison pledge

Image
READ MORE Advanced navies worldwide are increasingly turning to drones to do mine hunting and clearing work at sea. Marcus Hellyer, a former Defence Department official and now a senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, said that using autonomous and unmanned sea vehicles allowed the crewed ship to stay at the edge of a minefield, keeping naval personnel safer. The Morrison government has promised if re-elected to fast-track the building of two new mine hunting naval ships. Credit: Nine Newspapers “Common sense has prevailed,” he said of the decision. “Rather than keeping going down the path where you have old technology being extended at great cost, this will introduce new technology more quickly and that’s a good thing. “The current path does keep the human at the centre of the minefield, but the new approach lets them stay outside the minefield and let autonomous vehicles go in and do the dangerous work.” Article source: https:/...
