Didn't do any good at Ascot just then. :o

Yeh i know...but its a numbers game this is. Its not what you win in the next race, its what you win over a period of time (for me each week).

I also had #3 so not too worry.

Geez wish i was on Gibernau, sounded like a fantastic finish.

Dont be sorry... ( u aint on ya pat) ASCOT is a bit of a a trap at the minute.. I was going great guns at Belmont... a couple of times 6/8 on top.. I cannot buy a winner (at a price) at Ascot at the moment... may take a while to get a handle on the joint.. I am a dud there and Flemmo and Vic Park... Just cant get it right at those joints.. Dunno why

Straight track at Flemington & Victoria Park???

Yeah could be... Pinjarra isnt one of my shining lights either... It has a big straight I think ... from memory

They've only just introduced it there though. Only a couple of meetings so far.

the meeting last week I never even looked like it in any race... and WA is usually a very kind state

Handy little trifecta. :)

Also the First 4 from the top 4 tips for those that could take one on that race.

I really need to wear glasses... I ahve backed a thing at 100s on Betfair that I had no intention of backing at all...

and it ran like 100 to 1 pop.. no real harm done tho... the horse I intended to back ran 2nd... so all is good :)

:) nothing for me today..
A Sir La, Don't tell Clang and Leondade Party all failing...

i've seen the replay of Dont Tell Clang and she looked in trouble..something wrong with the stride there ..we'll hear more i'm guessing..
had a couple of wins with my slab bets but all in all a dissapointing day...
1 wining day from 5 and that win was when Patric won on protest..
in a rough patch of late....hoping to turn it around tomorrow,,,,

Hope you guys made a killn :)

Paul Harvey 4 rides today and not a single placing. What are the chances of that???

I went well with multis. Tried for 2 first 4s and got them both, plus a few handy trifectas. Didn't do as well as a couple of people who got the cup trifecta though!!! :eek:

well done Sportz ..would of been nice to get the cup tri and 1st4 ..always good value ....my hopes went out the door when the sun came out,,,Ascana loves the wet ( thought the run wasnt to bad considering the ride).....

Hoping the stable finds some form..
Weribee
*Mary's Flag
Bunbury
*Mav's Honour (looks the omen bet of the day)
Ipswich
*Fresh Cream, *Ragged Blossom, *Overtothree..


Haven't even seen the fields yet ..will have to get stuck in tomorrow morning.. i have 5 stars next to Ragged Blossom ...must of really liked something about this horse..
need to find my notes ..

Good Luck All :)

Hey guys,

Well done XPT with your advice RE Garidar running a cheeky race. !3 dollars for the place, would have added value to multis for anyone who followed your advice.

What i wanted to ask was, is Lions Gate still racing. I just watched the 2004 Derby replay on TVN where Lions Gate led them up. I don;t recall hearing much/anything about this horse for ages.

Thanks,
TS

Werribee Race 5 Number 6 Another Archie.

I Blackbooked Another Archie after its last run when it came from last on the turn to run 3rd. Up in distance today, i was hoping for reasonable odds like last start but i dont think i will get them. May jump favourite, and if does would suggest multiples betting only.

"Hoping the stable finds some form..

Good luck today maverick. Marys Flag = Private Mary at werr?

Another Archie flew home but needed the speed on early in the race. Just didnt get it and in the end the leaders were able to hang on. I am prepared to stick with it though.

just got nice first 4 at werribee $403.2

Ooops sorry w924 ..Mary's Flag was running at Wagga...and won :)

Finallllllllyyyy !!!

losses on Ragged Blossom (Not a suitable race,,silly bet really)
Fresh Cream e/w (very open race i thought ...as the result confirmed...probably better throwing a dart)
had a few slab bets ..Chevington was nice ..but just paid for the losers,,also had something on Mavs Honour who ran well for 4th..

a good day with better than i thought odds about Mary.. :)

Hope you guys finished on top..very quiet in here today..

Backin up noisy at penola on sunday, goin in with confidence..... over 1700 should win.. Should still be around e/w odds. Just need a decent track.

Gday TS,
By the looks of it theres been a few changes. Currently owned by swetten stud and not sure if they've had it long. It was trained by mcevoy but now with david hayes. Hasnt raced since may this year and only a guess but would expect to see it back on the track shortly.
Certainly didnt live up to expectations last prep.......

Tomorrows racing..
Port M
Patric is racing again (might be scratched)..this is way harder race ..especially with Strategic Prince involved...i'm not confident enough to take on the toppy and if i get a price will probably end up backing it instead..
Warrick Farm
*Swarthy,,,this well bred dissapointment is racing at a distance that suits..should be fit enough for this race..doesnt have to beat much here .
Matador and Langfibian are also in the stable..
Townsville
*Captain wheeland...this horse can fly ..should take the next step ..guessing we'll be seeing this horse in Brissie before to long..

like a few tomorrow...would be nice to string a couple of winnning days together..

Good luck Luv2 on Sunday....i'll be on :)

I read the form guide and tipping for some Melbourne races. They also have best bet and double.

I know what best bet means (best bet for the card), but what does double mean?

I believe there is two meanings to the term double.......

*1...... To pick the winner in two races at the same meet.. or.....
*2...... If you lose in the first race, DOUBLE your bet on the next!!!

Gday All

playing with something a bit different today ( no smart comments now )

Port R1
1-6-9

No special order

TRARALGON r1

Racebook order... I should have said, earlier, to dutch them to get a profit

4-5-6

Well that was a dud... :(

Should of stuck to ur own ratings...... see the XPT thread for my post.... many thanks...

Hi Stix and XPT..great result X with the top rater there..

and another top rated selection in the 2nd at PT Mac

and good on you Stix for your 1/2 tri

Thnx W

very happy :D

Thought PTM R7-1 Mr Spectacular Was the best today....

Good Luck today fella ;)

Hi Stix, my pics arent travelling too well at the mo so I'll have a look at that one..thanks and good luck

Cheers!

Ps Hipwell just won to make it 4 top raters for XPT already..amazing

It will stop soon.... hope you backed the winner R1 Tr paid 10 bucks nsw tab

"It will stop soon...."

a flying start thats for sure! You have Langfibian well in front I see..Im hoping it runs accordingly lol..certainly at attractive odds at present..

still going ..Bloodwood :) $3.70

Gday w

thats the thing with the way I do the ratings... Langfibian has been goin well up this way, won its last 2 in open and cl 5 company, it jumped from a Cl5 win to open... BUT it only beat 3 in the Open... My ratings really dont take class movements into account... So looking at the form a bit deeper, last time it went to Sydney, it raced in an Identical type of race and finished midfield.. IMHO you would want fair odds to back it

yeah 4/4 at Port... but it is my home track :) The harder races are coming up

X

Again!!......... You are On fire :eek:
