Staring favourite, the six-year-old pulled one back for punters after his shock defeat last start as market leader. After going back-to-back at Ascot in November, the…

Carnival time out West comes to a close with day five of The Pinnacles upon us, with the inaugural (kind of) running of The Gold Rush. The 1.5 million dollar Group 3 weight for age feature has grabbed all the headlines, but the stayers have put together a handy bunch for the running of the G.A. Towton Cup. It's a bumper 10 race programme, and…

We take a look at the latest news from Western Australian as The Pinnacles carnival continues and we close in on the Perth Cup.

Alaskan God runs in the Group 1 Northerly Stakes. Picture: Western Racepix Fine margins have been the difference between a good and a great few weeks for trainer Daniel Morton but Saturday's Group 1 Northerly Stakes (1800m) at Ascot presents a golden opportunity for that to change.

It's an often-used line, a little cliched and tired perhaps - "one for the ages" - but when the trainer is 82 and the owners are in their 90s - then Saturday's Group 1 Railway Stakes truly is "one for the ages". Perth Racing has dubbed their spruced-up carnival "The Pinnacles", and it has certainly taken respected trainer Col Webster some time to…

Let's get the honesty session out of the way early. This is not a vintage Turnbull Stakes, and in truth is probably the most ordinary rendition this century.

This GaiBott three year old is by Savabeel out of an…
