Yep. Make that 3 from 3.

Hi Sportz
 
"STRASBOURG???

Fair dinkum, if it didn't have Bart training it, it would have been 200-1. I didn't even consider it.

Some weird results today!!! Then again, that's usually he case on Derby Day."

Yep some surprises alright...a few placings that paid better than some winners, but I had to wait until matey to deliver and put my feet up..doubled up on matey and had a a small saver on prosecution just in case.

Did it harder than Mav who got the chocolates early. Yep Lotteria was a great price really...

Pleased to get out ok and I still have a roughy in mining silver and reclaim to go around.

All the best!

Well, the thing I'm most pleased about today was working out which races NOT to bet on. I gave races 1, 8 & 9 a miss at Flemington and very glad I did as I would have done my dough.

not much a betting man when it comes to the trots..but have a strong tip about Be good johnny in the big race at Albion Park,,will have to have something on him..

Hello Gents:

I haven't seen the scratchings yet for today, but the U.S. Australian racing site picks the following specials at Mornington: R-1 #7,CALIFORNIA DANE R-2 #9,FLYING LANGFUHR R5 #1 CANARY ISLANDS R-9 #9 DUEL COMMAND. The other venue, Colac, I have never bet at before. The specials there are: R-1 , #11 and #5 TERHEEB R-4 #1,DINGLE BAY R-5 #2 LATLANZ. These specials usually have better than a 50% strike rate, but are frequently at a small price. Racing starts earlier already, Sportz. Around 8 P.M. my time.


I just finished playing the Breeder's Cup races at Belmont N.Y.. I did pretty well betting these races, about 60% on the exactas.

Good luck today if you have a punt.

The Starcraft result didn't surprise me at all. How could he expect him to win at his first attempt on the dirt against top class horses which race on the dirt all the time?

TheAvenger 30th October 2005 11:05 AM

Sportz:

Exactly. I threw many others out in these races for precisely that reason. I wouldn't back a top notch American dirt track horse making his turf debut in Australia either.

Good old Big Mick did the right thing, @ $4.60 no complaints here. Tyvm!

maverick1993 30th October 2005 04:21 PM

well done Mad..
another good day so far..
Good Old Mick suited by the big track at the Sunny coast...
Lester cove repaid my faith in him..was due ,,he's been flying of late..
and did you see Arena Miss..came from last to just miss by a whisker..thought it was an ordinary ride..
hopes on Overtothree e/w in the last at good odds..

today was a bonus day for me..as i used Be Good Johny's winnings from last night for my stake today...
just love the punt...who needs to work :)

hope you guys had a good one..
