I don't know about that. Look at Race 5 in Sydney. What the hell is going on??? :(

Meanwhile, Mav is killing them. The way he bets, he'll win a million today.

Out of all the races today, this was probably the one that I was keenest on. I was very confident of getting the trifecta and first 4. Anyway, it makes me wonder why I couldn't just cut out all the other losing bets that i'm not so confident about and simply back this one. Stupid really. I'm going to end up betting on about 15 races today when I probably should have cut it down much more than that. How many races do you guys bet on?

Know the feeling Sportz, apart from The Jonker during the week i have been flittering it all away on stupid bets. Was on Leading Bid so i am ahead today - just. Should stop now. Like Attadale in the next at Ascot so i might have a go on that, see what happens.

Geez it's been a difficult day in Melbourne .... till the last

But I will take 21.6 the place for my 2nd rater in the last :)

I think I was close to backing a 100/1 winner there (no TVN so not sure)

How the hell did they let that go off at 144/1 (NSW TAB) ..

Having said that Zigotto wasnt all bad either

Gday Sportz

Now you have confused me.. I always throw the horses that U bold into my betting.. they seem to go pretty well .. I was sure that u said the bolding ( and I think some even get an * ) implied good thing sort of rating (my words not yours) Am I wrong? Or have U changed the way you do things?

Sportz 12th November 2005 04:56 PM

XPT,

Sorry for the confusion. The ones in bold are the single horses (or in some races 2 horses) that are my best win or each way bets. What I was talking about was that this race as a whole was the one where I was most confident about getting the quinella, any2, trifecta, first4 etc. In other words, I was VERY confident that one of my top 4 selections would win the race and that I'd have the first 4 placings in my selections.

In any case, I should have made things clearer which races I was most confident about. In future, I'll mark them very clearly.

Just a real tough day out there today, you get that. Only other runner i had today that was worth a damn was the Hammer. Guess what? I missed the race!

Gday Sportz

no probs.... I live in a slightly confused state LOL

Sportz 12th November 2005 05:17 PM

Same here. It's called Queensland.

Shocking day here sportz. 13bets 2 wins 11 losses suffered from a complete loss of rationality and chassed a couple of losses. Must have left the brain in bed i think, the two wins only paid $1.85 and one was 100e/w on a country girl which paid $2 the place.
I guess u can only learn from these types of day.
