RAcing 18-10
 

Well..... isn't this the most dead of threads during the week, since the Carnival started...... :(

I can not believe for a second that everyone is so focused on the Midweek and Saturday Metro meetings.......

I am positive people are still doing the form/ratings for every meeting of every day......

So even if your not punting yourself, why would you not share your thoughts with the rest of the forum?

Anyone that say's they are disciplined and stick to the Metro meetings - IMHO - are kidding themselves...... false sense of security.....

Anyway after my b.i.t.c.h. and moan session....... here are my thoughts for today:

Kyneton
Race 7 - 5 Gallantree / 6 Tamika's Boy / 7 Thunderline - 2,3
Race 8 - 2 Boyracer / 6 Unome / 3 Final Sailing - 1,4,9
Race 9 - 1 Al Tharb / 3 King's Champ / 9 Star Lord - 4,10,5,6
(Quaddie Numbers R6 - 2,3,7,8)

Ballina
Race 1 - 2 Coalmine
Race 2 - 1 Tuskegee
Race 3 - 1 Billie Deeay
Race 4 - 3 King Chariot
Race 5 - 2 Smile High
Race 6 - 3 Zaruby
Race 7 - 2 Wrong Doing

Good Luck People :)
(Again I have left myself way open for a hit...... :( )

lmao..settle down stix..I'm still going..the last 2 days have been fairly ordinary racing and alot of those races werent worth rating..
I suppose i'm diferent to you as i have a large stable of runners and usually only rate races with these in them..
check out tomorrow..
the last in Brissie looks a cracker as does the Murray Bridge Cup and Geelong racing..
i'm guesing alot of us are looking at these and i'm even looking at Saturday already :)

Thanks for your Advice and encouragement W924...I'm hopefully finalising some business interests which keep me very busy although not very profitable at this stage.....punting is some what financing all of these ventures at the moment..
the goal is to sort few things out and be free and clear by about March..
i'll keep a few minor things going which arent too time consuming so i still have a source of income thats not reliant on the horses..
I have'nt expereinced the dreaded run of outs yet ..but i've only been going 1 and 1/2 years seriously so i guess my time will come..starting from such humble beginnings i've come along way ..the things i've learnt from this forum has been invaluable..one bit of advice i got from Sportz and year and half ago was to be more selective ...its taken me this long to realise that this is real good advice..i used have a million runner running arround....still have to many on the Saturays but i'm slowly getting there,,,
The dream is to go full time ..travell around the country following feature meetings and as well hopefully watching my own horses racing..
Being a recently single man i couldnt think of a more exciting proffession..

Good to hear your doing so well Mav. I wouldnt reccommend going full-time pro (from my own personal experience) but if it's something you need to try, then all the best. I used to spend 12-14 hr days keeping up with the form, waiting patiently for the overlays, etc & I eventually got sick of it. Suddenly this game wasn't so much fun. The angina attacks weren't much fun either :p

I pulled the pin on that venture a few years ago & went & got myself a degree instead. A few years away from the game renewed my love of it, but i will forever remain a small time punter now.

I'd really, really recommend you try getting some work with Humbleton instead, you'd do it standing on your head, as would quite a few on this forum.

Good luck anyway

Gday All

Gday brave

Ok I will bite... and show my ignorance... who/what is Humbleton?

Yeah, me too. Sounds like the name of a small country town or something. :D

Mav

Certainly not having a go a you (Always follow your tips :) ) - or anyone else for that matter..... just think it is interesting that a few weeks/months ago there were tips/ratings flying left right and centre and now........ since someone mentioned the words "Spring Carnival"......... everyone has pulled their heads in.......just an interesting observation - that's all..... :)

I don't think people who punt and either read and/or contribute to this forum totally ignore Sunday's Monday's, Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's racing...... seems they are deserting the old friends that have given them so much..... for so long..... :D

Kyneton
Race 7 - 4-5-2 :(
A2 $2.4, $7.1, $5.1 (wooo-hoo a collect)

Really should of had Violet Ponds in there, just thought (and we all know what Thought thought.......) I'd gamble against him for some value.....had him for a place (although left it of my post - doh).... fool me...

Ballina
Race 1 - 2 Coalmine 2nd $1.4
Race 2 - 1 Tuskegee Won $2.2 $1.3
Race 3 - 1 Billie Deeay .... no Cigar
Race 4 - 3 King Chariot .... no Cigar
Race 5 - 2 Smile High Won $1.6 $1.3

Gday Stix

I have done my ratings for tomorrows racing... drop me a line if you want them and I will send em to ya, or alternatively wait till tomorrow and I will post em after scratchings are known, probably 1030 - 1045 after Belmont becomes known.. ( I promise ) :)

G'day X

These are obviously rated seperately to your daily ratings posted on the website?
