IT’S got to be the running double to die for ... a $31 pop into a $34 chance and it’s not without merit as the Sneaky Chance gang talk Caulfield Guineas Day and what’s that other race up north called?

THE Nooch has come in off the long run with his damning assessment of the Hughie Bowman’s ride in the Turnbull Stakes on champion mare Winx last week in Sneaky Chance podcast’s new segment Forgive And Forget.

Suggesting the world’s best jockey was dictated to by all the other riders at Flemington, Superracing’s Chris Vernuccio, AKA The Nooch, was adamant Bowman had plenty of other options up his sleeve but chose to go back.

“It was an ordinary ride — one out of 10 — and I agree with Chris Waller, they should show that video to the apprentice school. But on how not to ride an odds-on favourite in a slowly run race,” The Nooch has laid down.

Winx and Hugh Bowman rattle home to win the Turnbull Stakes in sensational circumstances.

Lucky poor old Hughie’s back in Sydney tomorrow and out of The Nooch’s crosshairs.

After picking themselves up off the floor, Herald Sun’s Glenn McFarlane and Gilbert Gardiner have still managed to pinpoint a winner or two tomorrow.

With Macca particularly upbeat after finding four winners last weekend.

Like most of Australia, the boys are clambering to get on The Autumn Sun in the Caulfield Guineas, but there’s value aplenty in their assessments of the four Group 1s at The Heath and their take on The Everest.

Gil could potentially have the ultimate running double if Seabook can down shortie Smart Melody and Dollar For Dollar upstage his more fancied rivals in the Toorak.

But The Nooch and Macca are adamant that Smart Melody will be making the right sounds in the Thousand Guineas.
