Racing SuperCoach 2019

Written by Motts on September 10 2019

If you love the nags and supercoach there is a way to combine your passions over the spring racing carnival while you’re going through SC DT’s (hmmm that didn’t sound quite right).

Its called Racing SuperCoach, its free, you can win $25k and its a lot of fun.

You pick a stable of 10 horses. Then you pick a jockey (jocks are free). Like AFL SC you have a budget you need to work within for the horses ($2m) and the horse you simply can’t go without this year is Mystic Journey which will set you back a mere $500k. The cheapest horses will set you back $50k and there’s some good value to be found amongst them.

Like AFL SC, horse prices will change. You’ll see their values increase or decrease depending on their finishing position from the completion of round one. The better your stable performs in each round, the more money you will have to spend in the sale yard ahead of the next round.

Every time one of your horses finishes within the first ten places in a race you will receive points. The higher they place, the more points you get. The tougher the race, the more points you get. You nominate one ‘captain’ per week and receive double points for that runner. Your jockey will also earn points for every race in which he or she finishes first, second or third in that round.

Finish Position G1 Race G2 Race G3 Race Listed/Other Jockey
1 40 32 24 18 3
2 32 24 18 14 2
3 24 18 14 12 1
4 18 14 12 10
5 14 12 10 8
6 12 10 8 6
7 10 8 6 4
8 8 6 4 2
9 6 4 2 1
10 4 2 1 1

Now unlike AFL SC your horses don’t run every week so you need to consider carefully the list of races and the types of races that are on the schedule. The race meetings that are covered in SC Racing are:

2019 SuperCoach Racing Calendar

Round Date(s) Track(s) Group, Listed Races
One Sep 28/Sep 29 Rosehill and Caulfield Two G1, Three G2, Three G3, Two Listed
Two Oct 5 Randwick and Flemington Four G1, Five G2, Three G3, Four Listed
Three Oct 12 Randwick and Caulfield Five G1, Five G2, Three G3, Two Listed
Four Oct 19 Randwick and Caulfield Two G1, Two G2, Six G3, Three Listed
Five Oct 25/Oct 26 Moonee Valley Two G1, Four G2, Two G3, One Listed
Six Nov 2 Rosehill and Flemington Five G1, Four G2, Three G3
Seven Nov 5 Flemington One G1, Two G3, Three Listed
Eight Nov 7 Flemington One G1, Two G3, Two Listed
Nine Nov 9 Flemington Two G1, One G2, Two G3, One Listed

You’ll probably need to go to a gambling website to get an idea of who is racing in each of the races and who is favoured to win. Ideally what you’d like is a favourite that doesn’t cost very much that runs in plenty of races on the calendar. If you find one, let me know about it!

Each round, you’ll be able to pick a whole new stable, with unlimited trades from round to round.

That should all be clear by now but if you need more info you can go here.

I’m still working on my stable but will post it when I feel its done.

If you’re keen to join an SCT League, jump into 117189.

Good luck!

    1. Dud prediction.
      That didnt turn out well as he finished with foot issues both runs and now appears out for the rest of the carnival.
      I havent given up hope that he will redeem himself in the Autumn. Needs blinkers too

    1. Hi Motts,
      Do you think that we could have a general discussion thread? Keep people interested through the off-season whilst Finals are being played?
      AFL news, finals teams, Trades – rumours and done deals. Just general footy stuff. I could post stuff that I come across or just keep putting it in the Coaches Box?
      Just a thought.

        1. Argh, f*ck. That’s gonna hurt.

          He’s such an underrated player- easily one of our best, CT. Brilliant foot skills, slicing lateral kicks, quick movement and creative positioning. Will be a huge loss.

          Hoping it’s just an innocuous recreational drug, rather than a performance enhancer- either way though, the precedent doesn’t look good.

          1. Hi GD. A big loss. He has not been found guilty of drug use but of tampering with a urine sample. Could get 4 years suspension.

  2. Hey Motts,
    Just to confirm,……..
    The points earned will not change if less than 10 runners in the race? Or will the left overs be added, or maybe even deducted to maintain balance of earnings?????

  4. I only watch sky racing & foxsports stuff.

    I don’t watch much free to air.

    My father has been involved in racing for 50 years. We are friends with Gary Harley through racing.

    This will be my first time @ sc racing.

  5. The value runner for the weekend is “Yao Dash” in the group one Golden Rose .
    The unbeaten 3yo in the Waterhouse/Bott yard is great value at $50k. It is almost a must have at that price allowing you to spend more on higher price runners.

    Good luck everyone.

  6. Coming 208th out of 45000 name of stable is white caviar this weeks stable is mystic journey;mr quickie kolding funstar probabeel foxborough miami bound subpoenaed king of leogrance fidelia all advice appreciated

  7. Sean I think for just an extra 25k you are better off with the Favourite in the Group 1 Metropolitan Brimham Rocks at 250k rather than the 2nd Favourite in the Group 3 Bart Cummings King of Leogrance as 3rd in the Metro will get you as many points as the winner of the Group 3.

    Foxborough a $21 shot is a risk in a 6 horse race as 2nd last in a Group 1 loses 25k in value and last 50k. You already have the 2 Favourites in that race. I would rather have Affair to Remember who is $6.00 in the Group 2 Edward Manifold who is 100k.

    Subpeoaned is the horse @$175k I would think is the one where you could cut him down to a 125k horse to get the 50k for my 2 recommendations.

    1. Thank you this is vital information I had affair to remember but thought it was an emergency. I thought the first 6 in a group 1 gained points so I thought foxborough was a good choice.Thanks again although I think subpoenaed will win so must weigh up things.

    2. Cheers thanks took on your info regarding brimham rocks but stuck with foxborough sixth in a group one is 12 points hopefully he can run 3rd or 4th. My stable barring scratchings will be Mystic journey Mr quickie brimham rocks Fidella kolding funstar as skipper probabeel subpoenaed independent road foxborough and JMAC as the jockey. Hoping just to stay with the pack and have a crack later on happy punting all

  10. Brain teaser time…….
    Avilius and Homesman G1 11 in race or……..
    Sack one (or both) for Microphone and Cosmic Force/Standout G2 7 in race???????
    ps Already have Bottega and Kooweerup G2 9 in race.

    1. Tough one. Avilius & Homesman in very hard race with a few other chances……but G1 pts are up for grabs. I am treating Bottega with caution since wins have been in maiden company & class 1.

    1. Yes $50k is cheap and it is a weak G2 race. I may regret it but I left Bottega out and picked a 3rd runner in the G1 Spring Champ Stks. I have Shadow Hero, Castelvechio & Quick Thinker – hopefully 1,2,3.

      1. There is only one position point value difference between G1 and G2.
        If you think Quick Thinker is only good for third, what’s the point, if Bottega runs 1st or 2nd and will increase in value???

        0

        0
        1. I believe Quick Thinker is a winning chance (one of three) – especially if the rain comes. If I believed only good for 3rd then I would look elsewhere. And I prefer Kooweerup in Botegga’s race. Basically I need my three to run trif and Bottega to do no better than second for me to be no worse off.

  11. Thanks Baz, noted.
    BTW, everyone appears to be focused on Melbourne jockeys.
    Have a quick look at Parr and Avdulla in Sydney and tell me what you think….?

  12. Apologies Sean.

  13. With the group ones fairly open what’s the plan of attack do we attack one and defend the other ie take 5 in one and one in the other? Thinking Caulfield cup maybe slightly easier than the Everest thoughts?

    0

    0
  14. Sean the best plan of attack is just pick your Top 2 horses you like in the Group 1’s and hope you nail the 40pts and 32pts on offer for 1st and 2nd.
    If you pick 5 horses in one Group 1 Race that is a recipe for a disaster as you could cop 2 donuts especially in the Caulfied Cup with 18 runners.

    1. I know but if you miss both you are out of it I am currently 1600 I hear you though ok so Santa Anna and pieratta with vow and declare with mr quickie cheers

      1. Similar thoughts again Sean.
        However unless you have a 3 mil. bank available, you are going to have a “Guns and Rookies” selection.
        In a harder race why risk more money at less profit?
        ie IMO, A cheaper “certainly” in G2 is a better risk than an “expensive maybe favourite” in G1. (Field totals depending).
        As I do not want Murphy’s Laws to infect us, and I’m still not yet happy with my entire selections, I will vow to be quick with the finalising. (Cryptic?)

    2 x g1s 80 points plus c is 120
    2 x g2s 64 points
    6 x g3s 144 points that’s if you pick 10 winners/races.

  18. IMO one to watch …Downdraft.

    Also wonder how hard Kluger works to take up the running in the cox plate, while Lys Gracieux comes across to get cover????

    1. Without a genuine on pacer in the race I am tipping Homesman to be pushed out to take up the running. He is drawn wide so he either has to drop back to near last or push forward early. It would be hard for him to run on from back if the race is “slowly” run. In any case it will be a cracker race and jockey tactics will be fascinating.

      1. Thanks Baz,
        That may happen too.
        Mine was more of Japan horse setting up things for a Japan horse…..nee Caulfield Cup and longer time ago Melbourne Cup.

        1. I think Harlem will lead with Homesman sitting close. The unknown is the overseas runners but the pace should be genuine if not quick.
          I agree with your assessment Baz, a cracker of a race. Barrier draw has made it very interesting.
