Wonder week for WA experts
This week it was all about the media experts, with the WA judges in particular having a good time of it.

But before we rip into them, there was a pro punter who pipped the media experts to the summit thanks to a thumping 316% Profit on Turnover (POT).
That honour fell to Gifthorse, who found stacks of value over in the UK.
She bagged 5 winners at a strong strike rate of 31% and a mouth-watering average price of $13.32.
The highlight was $44 pop City Tour that saluted at Windsor on Sunday.
And with an all-time 6% POT since joining the site in early 2019, it's no wonder Gifthorse is listed as a pro.

Onto the WA media brigade and best of the bunch was SKY Racing's Matt Young.
The talented caller was all over Sunday's Carnarvon card, nailing 3 of the 6 winners at a bumper average price just shy of $6.
His other 3 selections all found a place, demonstrating that he's seeing them well at the moment.
Young's followers walked away with a whopping 193% POT for the meet.
And with Young now boasting a three-week winning streak at all tracks, you know his next WA tips will be very popular.

It was an OzRace duo who came home next, led by the publication's part-owner Chris Blackwell.
The proud Sandgroper and WA form expert has copped plenty of mentions in the past for his ability to sniff out value.
This week he did exactly that, not only bagging 3 fat winners at Carnarvon, but making each of them a best bet.
This incredible tipping display generated a mind-blowing 338% POT, once you factor in a double stake for Blackwell's best bets.
It doesn't get much better than that.

Blackwell's OzRace colleague Matt Coxall also showed all of his class as a form analyst.
The Perth expert jagged 3 winners at Belmont on Saturday, including $16.60 pop Megadon in the first.
This drove a cracking 154% POT for Coxall's followers.
They'll be hoping he can repeat the dose this Saturday.
Rounding out the top five thanks to a sensational 153% POT was Racing.com's Matt Campbell.
The Get On panellist and form judge had a Saturday to remember.
He found 5 winners across Flemington and Murray Bridge, at a strike rate of 42% and an average price of $6.06.
What a combination of value and accuracy.
It was a good week to be following the Matts.
Harness and Greyhound tipsters of the week
But that trend didn't stop on the horse racing leaderboard!
Leading the way with a cracking 114% POT from his harness tips was Matt Robertson.
The Tassie race caller for SKY fired at Hobart on Friday, seeing 4 of his 8 selections greet the judge.
They not only saluted at a handsome average price of $4.28, but helped cement a two-month profit streak for Robertson.
He's flying.
SKY Racing were also well represented on the greyhound leaderboard, with Gary Clark sitting at the summit.
The NSW expert cleaned up at Gosford on Thursday.
He found the last 6 winners on the card, to drive an enormous 135% POT.

Clark is now boasting a six-tip winning streak, as well as a three-month winning streak.
In other words, he's airborne.
