GROUPIES RESULTS – Autumn 2020 round 9

Sires / Australian Derby / TJ Smith Stakes / Doncaster Mile

There were no tipping heroics this week, with Nature Strip being the only successfully tipped winner by the Groupies.

It was a tough round and not surprising that low scores are the result.

Chineseguy and Jet are the top scorers on 13.3, tipping third placed Mamaragan in the Sires and Nature Strip in the TJ Smith.

Even with the relatively low scores, Jet is now challenging Ramses for top spot on the Autumn Leaderboard , and Chineseguy has jumped to second on the Yearly Board behind Wilks who still has a firm grip on the lead.

GROUPIES – Autumn 2020 round 9 -  Doncaster Day

Sires / Australian Derby / TJ Smith Stakes / Doncaster Mile

The time honoured Doncaster-Derby Day is coming up this Saturday with four terrific Group 1 events that have attracted classy fields with several live chances in each, thus hard to tip the winners.

As the Queensland winter carnival has been cancelled the Autumn Groupies Competition will conclude after the South Australian carnival in mid May.

GROUPIES RESULTS – Autumn 2020 round 8 - Tancred Stakes / Vinery Stud Stakes

The selection of Funstar and Verry Elleegant for the Group 1 double seemed sure fire bet, but as we have seen many times, racing is capricious and rarely results as expected.

Both were popular tips this round, with only the Verry Elleegant winning and very impressively at that.

Wilks was the sole Groupie to tip the winning double of Shout The Bar and Verry Elleegant, so is the top scorer this week.

Congratulations also to Hitensile and Todman who also tipped Shout The Bar who earned them a handy 20.5 points.

Ramses still holds the lead on the Autumn Board, though the minor places have changed with Jet and Wilks overtaking One Perfect Day and relegating him to fourth place.

Wilks has increased his lead on the Yearly Leaderboard, 36.5 points ahead of Pigracer in second place.

Next Saturday, if racing continues, Doncaster/Derby Day at Randwick features four Group 1 races.

GROUPIES – Autumn 2020 round 8  - Tancred Stakes / Vinery Stud Stakes

There’s no footfall or much of anything else at present, but racing will continue in these pestilent times, but for how long remains to be seen.

At least it appears to be going ahead this Saturday at Rosehill with two rather interesting Group 1 events, one for stayers and the other three year old fillies. Funstar and Probabeel clash once again in the Vinery Stud Stakes.

GROUPIES RESULTS – Autumn 2020 round 7

William Reid Stakes / Ranvet Stakes / George Ryder Stakes/ Rosehill Guineas / Golden Slipper / Galaxy

A whopper round this week meant that just about all the Groupies participants scored points, some more than others.

Ramses is Groupies Champion this week scoring a massive 60.6 points, mostly courtesy of long priced Galaxy winner I Am Excited.  He tipped three winners – Addeybb, Farnan and I Am Excited and one third place getter in Te Akau Shark.

Jet is second top scorer with 44.6 points accrued by tipping three place getters in Bivouac, Verry Elleegant and Te Akau Shark and one winner in I Am Excited.

As a result of his excellent tipping, Ramses has toppled One Perfect Day from the top of the Autumn Leaderboard and Jet has jumped to third place.

Wilks had a highly successful round 7, tipping two winners – Loving Gaby and Castelvecchio – and two place getters in Verry Elleegant and Te Akau Shark, and has seized the lead on the Yearly Board from Pigracer.

Next Saturday, coronavirus permitting, the Group 1 action is at Randwick featuring the Vinery Stud Stakes and Tancred Stakes.

GROUPIES Autumn 2020 round 7B  - Golden Slipper Day

Ranvet Stakes / George Ryder Stakes / Rosehill Guineas / Golden Slipper / Galaxy

Rosehill hosts a super day of Group 1 action on Saturday with five excellent first class races, including the Golden Slipper Stakes.

Thankfully Coronavirus has not yet closed down the racing industry, but you kind of wonder how long it will continue to survive in these crazy times. In the meantime, hunkered down in social isolation, there is still something to enjoy in good horse racing during the Sydney Autumn Carnival.

GROUPIES – Autumn 2020 round 7A /William Reid Stakes

I’ve decided to put up the William Reid Stakes thread today, so players won’t have to tip Golden Slipper Day early, though you’re welcome to put all tips here should you so wish.

A sizzling field of sprinters will be vying for Group 1 glory at Moonee Valley on Friday night.

GROUPIES RESULTS – Autumn 2020 round 6 – Coolmore Classic

It was dead easy to collate the results this week, with Mr Mars being the sole scorer for the round, serendipitously tipping the Coolmore Classic winner Con Te Partiro.

Well done Mr Mars!

As a consequence of the general failure of the collected Groupies to accrue points, the Leaderboards remain the same as last week, with only Mr Mars making any progress.

He now occupies 4^th place on the Autumn Leaderboard, leaping from second last place in one fell swoop.

It’s a bumper round next week with the William Reid Stakes at Moonee Valley on Friday night and Golden Slipper Day at Rosehill on Saturday – 6 Group 1 races all up.

Let's hope the Corona Virus doesn't affect the rest of the Autumn racing season too drastically.

GROUPIES RESULTS – Autumn 2020 round 5

Canterbury Stakes/ Newmarket Handicap /Randwick Guineas / Australian Cup

A tough round this week, so it’s commendable that most Groupies scored points on one or more of the Group 1 races in contention.

Pigracer is the top scorer this week tipping two well priced Randwick Group 1 winners in Shadow Hero and The Bostonian, which sees him take over the lead on the Yearly Leaderboard and also jump to second place on the Autumn Board behind One Perfect Day.

One Perfect Day tipped the two Flemington winners – Bivouac and Fifty Stars (he was the sole tipster for the Australian Cup winner). He has subsequently increased his lead on the Autumn Leaderboard, 22 points ahead of Pigracer.
