Good luck MAV
 

It is fun isnt it!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOOO Close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thought i had it 1/2 way down the straight...still i'll take the place divie..
my play bets did a million times better than my serious bets today..dont figure :)
i think i'll take the money and run..buy a slab and some fishn chips.. or else i'll let it ride on the trots or something..

Tuesday
Sydney
*Dabke Dancer..good last few runs..small field helps..wont be as far back..can run the distance where a few of the fancies are queries..
*No Name For a Lady...never been afraid of maidens..this one has been trialing well and i like the way she fought on last start where she was wide..
*Evilina...gets the tempo to suit here..forget last start when fancied.thought Solmere could run a cheeky race here awell.. value ?
might look at Primus in the last ..depends on the price..
Rocky
*Kenya Keepasecret..no reason why he cant do it for us again..the extra distance shouldnt be a prob and is racing well..
*Stipend..got these covered .. might be to short to consider though .
*Mydam Twist..form around stipend is strong for this...claim helps..
*Regimental...forget last start..tempo against..so consistent ,,the toppy has a stack of weight but will still be hard to beat..
Swanny
*Old Harryallards lane e/w.....big field with a fast tempo..harry could run over them at the end.. love to hear Mr Eds take on his chances ..he owes us both a bit of cash..

Have a few tomorrow,,,Confident about Rocky but i think some of them will be to short but theres always exactas ,trebles ect that might spice up the collects....

He's a prick of a thing isn't he, looks thrown in at the weights and with speed likely he will be charging home again and has a chance, can't have a decent crack at him ever again however. Aggro was a really nice run last start, he did a lot of work but ground away well to be clearly beaten by Kelcher who had all the favours and just in weight here, Aggro will get the lovely sit from 4. Tanna Hero won as she pleased last start and the second placed horse (more beer) won in Adelaide last Saturday, that was a very leader bias track so be wary. No Spice found plenty to beat some decent plodders last start and must also be given a chance. Too hard for me, but if my left **************** was in danger i'd have to say Aggro e/w.

Flu Blu is one i'll be on tommorow despite drawing worse then badly. He is lightly raced but all three of his starts have been full of merit. Last time he travelled well in transit and came very wide and went for home around the bend, it's only a short straight at Murtoa and he looked beaten, when Wit kicked again but alas Flu responded and just failed. He has led before and also taken a sit, but he looks like a horse who needs plenty of galloping room, looks to have a decent sprint so with a good speed on he can get back and reel them in (hopefully). There's a few horses in the race that might have form in better races, such as Shifting Sands who is likely to start very short, but they have had plenty of chances too, this fellow is on the improve and looks tough to hold out. He shouldn't be hard to spot, just look for the big grey jumping from the main street.

How about this one:

SWAN HILL 10-10 SWAN HILL :D

All kidding aside, it's actually got some chance. Perhaps you could play around with numbers 3, 4, 6, 7 & 10.

On to the more serious tips:

CANT R2 - 3 NO NAME FOR A LADY & 1 SHARNA MYST (3,1,4,5 - 7,8)
CANT R3 - 7 PROSPERING & 1 INVOLVE (7,1,6,5 - 10,9)
CANT R4 - 1 PFENNIG & 4 GOLDTOWN (1,4,3,5)
CANT R5 - 1 KELTIC FLASH, 7 Draw The Line (1,7,6,2 - 10,5)
CANT R6 - 2 PERMISSIVE, 7 Evelina (2,7,10,8 - 5,6)
CANT R7 - 5 LONGHORN & 2 PRIMUS (5,2,4,3 - 8,9)
SW.H R6 - 4 KING HUT & 8 Z'AFFAIRE (4,8,1,2 - 3,9)

Agree with most of Mav's tips for Rocky.

ROCK R4 - 4 KENYA KEEPA SECRET & 5 TIPSY MCSTAGGER (4,5,9,11 - 1,7)
ROCK R5 - 1 MYDAM TWIST, 5 Bay Of Plenty (1,5,2,4 - 7,8)
ROCK R6 - 2 LEVERAGE, 5 Aprimadonna (2,5,3,1 - 7,8)
ROCK R7 - 4 OUR JIM BEAU, 3 Native Knight (4,3,5,2 - 1,8)
ROCK R8 - 4 REGIMENTAL, 3 Quartpot (4,3,2,1 - 5,7)

Won't be betting in all of those races. I'll look for a bit of value. Some of those I've tipped might be too short.

I see Stipend got beat ...i thought that was a gimme..to short for me but goes to show theres no such thing..
Dabke Dancer was a good price ..just not good enough...

hopefully things improve. :)

He was wide most of the way, Mav.

Noreil was another short priced fav that went down in the first in Sydney. No value at all.

i thought Noriel was soft ...didnt factor in Flying formality ..better off backing all of them except Noriel ...oh well hindsight's a wonderful thing..

Gday All

I thought Noriel was a pretty good thing to win the race.. but not at tomato sauce odds... had the winner rated highly but left the race alone.. Only because Noriel was one of my trainer's horses and does'nt owe me any money.. there are a couple of more trainers horses running today. we might find a winner,

23/08/2005 Baez CANTERBURY Race 3 - No. 5 at 14:25

The 2 yesterday didnt run a drum so that wasnt real flash.... ah well

0 for 3 today so far ...might be singing for my fish'n chips tonight :(

Wasnt going to bet today but...
 

Looks like a hard day today, still I got a tip for one in the next a caterbury:

No 10 Wooden Nickel

Put with 1,2,3,6 in multiples

Good luck

Mydam Twist disappointing as well.

I haven't had a bet at Rocky yet. Pleased about that too as I wouldn't have done any good.

Surely you couldn't leave Beadman's ride out!!!

I'm 0 for 4 today ...going awfull...hopes on Regimental and maybe Primus in the last at Canterbury..
i like evilina but the scratchings have taken some speed out of the race ...probably win easily now :)

I'm having a good day. 6 races for 6 collects. And the 2 races so far that I've decided not to bet on, I saved my money. :)

Must be a loss coming soon, surely. :o

good move...evelina is so one dimensional ..

CANTERBURY

RACE 7 - 5 Longhorn (D Beadman)

Oh Well, and the tri paid well as well. Beadmans a funny one for me, everytime im on him it seems like unders, I just hate not getting value!

So I wont back beadman on the next fav....

Instead i'll look at Giteau and The Fangsta E/W

In the last in Rocky, have to admit Regimental is the best chance, short though. Not much pace in the race, only the 5 and the 8 generally race on the pace. Will need to be close to the lead straightening. Myceane could lead all the way, good horse but getting older, the toopy from the 1 barrier Tycoon Ted will be right behind them and may carry the weight if there is no pace. WHo knows where Quartpot will settle, if you know then you have the trump card here. I might take a rover tri with Regimental, boxed with 1,3,5,8, but I do like the 5 more and more

Who knows..

Typical tueday meetings today

Decided that Race 7 at Rocky was too open, so I left it alone. Was worried there for a while when one of my original picks Native Knight hit the lead, but Royal reform ran past it.

Mav, cant split regimental and tycoon ted in the last, might take tycoon for the value.. no doubt regimental will win though, havnt seen a day yet you havnt picked a winner!!!!!

....... DOH! ...........
 

doh..... 2nd... I'm with you Tarbs... Deadman = too short = leave, but had 1x3 so no damage - actually small profit......

Gold Wrapt at 30's in the last at Swan Hill....
 

hopefuly a knockout in the last

Go tycoon ted luv2 ...noway i'd take those odds about Regimental..
actually my 2nd rater is Mycanea ..?? its about 30/1 ..might have alittle e/w and just take the losses on the chin ..might try a 1st4 get out of jail bet :)
0 for 5 :( my best bets have been leaving Stipend,Evalina and Primus alone..
one of those days...

I see you like Mycenae as well tarbs :) good luck ..i think we'll need it

:D

Hope someone had a go here. First 4 was 4-6-3-10. Paid $852 up here. Trifecta was $113. And 7 came 5th.

2.80 - Regimental is getting backable here...

Go Quartpot.....

Giddy Up Quartpot.

Thanks Tarbs.... got exacta (a few times !!) and tri - thanks to including Mycenae.....

beauty, first 4 and EW Myceane, only paid $450 though, still, a bank for tommorrow

woo hoo ..finally a collect ..no 1st4 glory but a nice place divie softens the pain of getting smashed all arvo...
still no fishn chips tonight...noodles for me ..
well done Stix ,,paid nicely ,,

back to the drawing board..tomorrow promises to be a better day :)

Forget today.....
 

Looking forward to a BIG day tomorrow.....

Giddy Up

Well, 10 races for me today and 10 collects. I can't remember a day like that before.

I thought Quartpot would be the key to the y race, couldnt decide where he would possy up, if he leads or pressures for it, Regimental wins, if he take a seat then regimental gets too far back with no speed and cant catch them - the latter happened. I boxed 4 with the first 4 but took a stupid rover tri (and of course the standout finishes 4th!) a couple times.


Good run by Myceane for second though Mav, good to see my ratings are comparable with someone a respected in this forum as you!

wow i really stopped them today ..not often i have so many short priced runners and knew i wouldnt get the backable odds on all of them...but to stop them all ?? I can take Old Harry beating me i'm used to it but i really cursed some favs today....i've missed a few shorties of late that have won but its days like todays that remind why i dont back them....

well done stix...quartpot beat me into 2nd but also cost me the tri 5 times and the 1st4 5 times.. but i'm glad someone had a win today :)

You're only as good as your last tips Tarbs ..wasnt for a monster tri the other day i'd be standing on the corner :)
but i've learnt to roll with the punches ..
10 out of 10 sportz ?? wow if i ever got 10 out of 10 i'd be pushing packer for the richest man in OZ title you must be rich enough to go the field now ??

10 out of 10! Better than Hilton Donaldson the other day at Morphetville!

Ahh no sorry Tarbs, it certainly wasn't 10 first selections for 10 wins!!! :eek:

Sorry Mav
 

Sorry Mav.... just though it was the value and was a good chance to run on....

Owe you a couple... Let's try tomorrow !

Don't mind Leno in the last @ Randwick.

Fav distance.... wide draw only concern
