FYI, I have a small share in Some Do, who makes her debut in R1 at 5.58pm on Friday night at Alexandra Park. She's top pick with the Alex Park tipster (Aaron White) so will be lucky to be at more than $3 on the night. She's drawn 6 over a mile (which isn't easy for her to get into it on a 1000m track), but she's been hitting the line very nicely in her workouts, so is likely to be saved for one run & can pick them up if she's near enough on the turn.
Cheers Smudge. TAB have $ back for 2nd or 3rd (up to $30) on that race so makes it an easy choice!

Looks like Taupo has been abandoned for the rest of the day

@JK not enough to save Mr. Pickles though...

I'mm glad she ran third for you then! The draw undid her, with her main rival drawn 1. Scott Phelan couldn't flush out a horse to drag her up, but she zipped home nicely. Not a bad thing either that she didn't win - never easy to win on debut then go straight into racing in the grades against hardened horses.

Ricky Baker fresh up today. Bit of a rusty draw but he looks well and his gallops have been excellent. For me the place value of $2:15 is really good value.
Race 5 Matamata
-
Come on Ricky!

Come on Ricky!
If you don't worry about losing a $1 then Jasmine at $126 is worth a buck or two for Jockeys challenge today. She has three winnable rides

Nice! Not drinking for a couple months so beer money is now race money. Put on $20 to win at $4.50 and $50 to place. Its a boring day in the office so hopefully this brings a bit of excitement.

Gee $4:50 is starting to get a bit short or do you get your $1back as well so making it equivalent of $5:50 on NZ Tote

boosted to $6.25 for the win. My account neeeeds it so run you fuck!!
-
Oh well Ricky Baker didn't far too well. Don't bet what you can't afford to lose lol. Had a good day go on some US races today so I've finished $120 ahead. But that'll do me.

Punters.com late mover actually comes in, a sneaky bet on the Sunny Coast helps out.

Even I cant bring myelf to punt on the US races. And I'd punt most days

best thing about punting is you can just chase your losses around the globe

@Smudge I see you are sponsoring the first at Ashburton today! Well done!
Point of clarification: I specialise in erections not construction.

I want Samadoubt investigated
-
Saturdays bias in sydney was pretty bad. Knew it was gonna be there with soft track and a tail wind down the straight but didnt think would be that bad. Didnt take Samadoubt but got most the others. Thought Te Akau Sharks run was pretty decent from back there and Star of the Seas too which ran 4th. Good horse to follow.
Had NZ horse of the year awards sunday night.....man yesterday was rough!

Fucking Redzel
Every time that bastard runs, i bet on him. But he was shit in the Autumn, and i was convinced he was done. The market seemed to agree, and he jumped at $6, massive for him. So i stayed off.
Does what he always does, jumps to the front, the short favourite pulls up along side in the straight, and it looks like his last set of runs. But no, old mate winds back the years, finds another gear, runs off and wins.
You motherf....
-
Nature strip was all over the shop. Wanted to just go go go and no settle. Would have been interesting if jmac had just let him go. I thought that might happen but took pierata and redzel to win as the latter is my sons fav

Biggest race weekend of the year in Cairns, and i am many excite.
Starts with a loooong lunch tomorrow (that i always get carried away at). Ladies Day on Friday. Amateurs Cup Day on Saturday. There are a couple of other functions i skip because i lack the staying power.
Love it.
The favourite (i assume) for the Amateurs Cup on Saturday will be running for unprecedented prize money up here, because it's looking for the northern triple crown they came up with, where if you win the Townsville Cup, the Cairns Cup, and the Amateurs Cup you run for a bonus. Two legs down, one to go.
My horse looks like it will run a 1500m Class 1 on the Saturday. She's running for her career. Given form and that she has never run the distance she'll jump at a thousand dollars

With about 4 horses in each race!
A bottomless Tauranga track is just the pits.

Confirmed for R6 on Saturday. If a miracle occurs, and she wins, I'll already be buckled. Would make for a funny presentation

Dunno yet, Racing Qld just sent me the text, but no gate info.
No matter what, a runner on Amateurs weekend!

Really bizarre that confirmation comes before the draw (Well bizarre compared to how it goes here)
Good Luuck!!!
