Better still, often she prefers me elsewhere when racing is on so Golf is mostly a go on Saturdays!

She is onto something - I get on a lot better with everybody when they aren't there as well.

Average, he was re-shod yesterday and is a bit foot-sore this morning. In saying that, sometimes they are sweet race day. Will make a decision in the morning.

Tattyboglar having a burn on Monday at Te Rapa in the first

Best solution is a top quality horse

[infidel]

Really loved having 40 each way on Homesman

[mariner4life]

So glad i loaded up on Best Solution yesterday at 15s. My mate was right next to m having loaded up on Homesman so we roared them home. Great race.

3 other winners and my NPC multi coming in made this a decent day.

@hooroo was a nice return on her, I got her @$10.60 for the win, had m'lady for the quinella, but she wasnt quick enough coming 3rd

She threw a shoe over night and had a pulse so we nearly scratched. She was walking fine though and when we got Farrier to re-shoe her, she didn’t flinch. Thought she should go well but a little surprised how well she won.

Lisa rated her magically. Fairly good time too.

Nice to give her a good hit and get the return as she is the nastiest piece of work on the farm. Hates me.

@hooroo really really drunk and happy.

Tagging myself in error too. Goooooo Hooooorooooooo

Wow! The difference three hours make.

Feeling not too bad today considering that post of mine? Any other random posts I haven't stumbled upon yet?

Polly Gray potentially running Friday.

Withhold running in the Geelong Cup today.

Melbourne Cup price will shorten from 15 if he wins in Geelong.

Yep needs to win to get a melbourne cup start doesnt it?

One of the aussie bookies was accepting correlated multi of it to win the two races at $48 boosted a few days ago.

I've gone from not having a betting account, to having one but only using it for big meets down south, to having a bet in every race in geelong today...

Is this a cry for intervention, or you're bragging you've masted another technological development?

neither, just a statement of progress/regress.

And i certainly wouldn't call it mastery...

Withhold was horrific to watch. Had every chance but had nothing once the time came to kick.

Post race reports of a bleed though which explains a few things

Some massive bets have been placed on benbatl to beat winx in the cox plate. One of $45k @ $9!
