    What a weird night.

    We went out to dinner with some others and then tried to drink the Liquor cabinet dry (unsuccessfully as I had no idea how much booze we had)

    Fair to say I have a head of horrors today.

    Well, shit. Monday looks like an action replay of last time. We're running the same distance and have the same gate.

    God help me, but i've just whacked a bit on perennial bridesmaid Tom Melbourne in the Straddie Handicap tomorrow. For once he's not up around the top of the weights, and 31/8.50 seems like a lot for a horse that is usually in the top 2.

    Couple of horses running tomorrow i like at double figure odds. Invincibella at 11s. And Fun Fact at 16s. Both at Eagle Farm.

    You're a punting masochist.

    I mean, I could get on board with some of that place money, but the win bet? Check yourself into a clinic*, man!

    *= problem gambling clinic, not sexual health. Although having heard some of your stories...

    Someone just tipped an $81 shot at the next in Nelson. Number 13. No idea why it has been tipped but a punt's a punt!

    the first step is admitting i have a problem...

    All of my "other" stories are in the dim dark past, I'm in the clear

    Gotta Ticket is a pig of a thing. Personally, I'd follow the TAB tipster at Nelson all day . . . 😉

    Drawn well and was unlucky to lock wheels at the business end at Ashburton & he started from the 2nd row that day. The stable is in a bit of a hot run too so that bodes well, which explains his sub-$4 price, I suppose.

    Loomed as a winning chance 200m, but couldn't quite grab the leader then broke 40m out. Should hold 3rd though as he wasn't lapped on, and didn't break for more than 50m of the last 200m.

    Eagle Farm

    Race 9

    Chillin with Dylan is a steal at 126 - I don't understand the lack of love for this horse. It may not win but there's no way it's this bad. Haripour lost to The Candy Man over a shorter distance the other weekend - a few hundred metres more and it would've been a different story.

    Well I guess that's why they were running in the ninth...

    Chillin With Dylan ran better than its price though, landing 6th? Not the worst long shot tip I've seen.

    Had a huge day.

    Best day in terms of number of winners (not actual $) that I’ve had in while. No huge plants on anything but 10 winners and 5 places. Hit one place multi ($15 to 1), missed one and hit two of three win multis - (3 and 5 leg).

    As usual, didn’t even bother with NZ races
