Darren McAuliffe’s decision to sidestep a Northam maiden with War Matters last week and head straight to Ascot paid off in the Westspeed Platinum Hcp (1600m) on Saturday. War Matters was getting out to a mile for the first time and McAuliffe predicted he will keep improving over longer journeys. “This was a better option than Northam. The track was probably a bit too firm up there and he ran well here last month....

Raw Pearce Racing 3yo Southern Scandal gave his connections some anxious moments before ultimately justifying a $1.70 return when appearing first-up in the Debortoli Winemakers Hcp (1000m) at Northam on Thursday. The chestnut son of I’m All The Talk settled one-out and one-back before cruising into contention behind front-runner Apache Adios (Gingerbread Man). No sooner had caller Darren McAullay confirmed Chris Parnham looked confident than the short-priced favourite began racing greenly. ...

Jokers Grin stormed home in the Selangor Trophy (1000m) at Ascot on Saturday in what was a sign of things to come for trainer Bernie Miller and stable jockey Pat Carberry. The lightly-raced 4yo son of Alwyn Park stallion Maschino was rated a star of the future after completing a hat-trick during the Belmont winter season and Saturday’s first-up victory only served to emphasise he’s a black-type winner in waiting....

A Group 1 victory in the Winterbottom Stakes (1200m) has been an elusive goal for Red Can Man who will be contesting our premier sprint for the fifth time on November 30. The Steve Wolfe-trained gelding won the LR Fairetha Stakes (1400m) as a 3yo in 2019 but graduating to a Group 1 has been a bridge too far so far behind Elite Street (2020), Graceful Girl (2021), Paulele (2022) and Overpass (2023)....

Visiting Irish jockey Amy Jo Hayes gave Lady Ducati a polished one-out, one-back ride to win the Goldfields Pest Control Hcp (1300m) at Kalgoorlie last Sunday. Hayes is here for three months during the northern winter and, despite a cosy cart in running, it wasn’t all plain sailing aboard Lady Ducati.

Promising Ridgeport gelding Watch Me Rock has unleashed an eye-catching finishing burst to overhaul Madam Kisses (Rommel) right on the line at Ascot. Watch Me Rock looked anything but a short-priced favourite in Saturday’s Morley Growers Market Hcp (1400m) when spotting front-runner He’s Gold (Rogano) the best part of eight lengths at the top of the straight. “We knew he was capable of winning like that but we’ve held off adding blinkers,” co-trainer Alana Williams revealed. ...
