Thats awesome!
Was the owner quite bullish about it? Or did you just back since you had met the guy?
Mate he didn't tip it or anything. He was just stoked to have a horse racing on a big day (down from Toowoomba) so I thought "fuck it" and jumped on expecting nothing. Best winner ever.
Should have loaded up...

Oh dear!!! That's so untidy!
@mariner4life that dude you met will be looking for a new trainer shortly.

Weiry in the last goooorn?
Darren Weir in a bit of shit allegedly. Reports he's been arrested along with a couple of other blokes, in what appears to a be a sting around some corrupt betting practices.

They'll have to change the #BackWeirDrinkBeer hashtag to #BackWeirInCourtYoullAppear. Or something far better than the lame option I've just provided.

I was up in Auckland for yearling sales over weekend and had dinner in town at the table next to him.
It's fair to say he looked in good spirits (Him and Peter Moody). I thought he was still at the sales? I wonder if he was arrested returning or on the actual property

Yeah I thought he was still at the sales but they said 3 were arrested and it indicated he was one of them (the 48 year old). Seized a gun and a tazer too
Woah! Stuff only has the brief update. Where did you read that?

Racing.com or punters.com this morning

Darren Weir's stables raided
Wednesday's events have rocked Victorian racing, here's how the day played out
-
So Darren Weir quetly accepts a 4-year suspension. For how quickly it happened, and how little fuss was made, i can't help but think there was more that was left out of the public eye.
The conspiracy theorist in me looks at a 2nd country trainer who got too big for his boots being rubbed out...
-
Thats just the racing ban.
Vic police still gotta have their way with him which could be interesting.
And didnt happen that quicky to be honest. They've been on to him for a while and it was leaked in Dec that he was about to be busted. I was suprised they didnt hit him up then but waited a month or so later

Ha, I was quietly thinking the same. I'm kind of gutted for him but he ponied up and is taking his medicine. He's not the devil when it comes to racing frauds/dodginess.
Solsy Molsy running in the last at Te Rapa on Sunday. He is in great nick and is @$35/$7.
Biggest concern is stepping up to 1400 after a long gap between runs. Either way he will improve from the run for his next up at Matamata Breeders Stakes day.

i had a decent weekend on the punt actually. Huge day on the beers on saturday so was punting at Caulfield (mainly) and thanks to money back, did pretty good.
Then took those bonus bets and turned them in to wins at rando country meets yeterday while watching the racing channel battling through my hangover.
I'm off to the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Randwick in April which will be great. Slowly making my way around the big tracks in Aus.
