Wow good field alright!
Yup! We need a soft track and a good draw
-
Two horror draws for Ricky and Polly.
-
Two runners at Gore on Saturday
- Spur To Action is #6 in Race 4 at 1.55pm & should be first or second favourite
- Need You Now is #8 in Race 6 at 3.08pm & will almost certainly be favourite.

I saw a conversation on the Racing channel about a month ago and wondered what they were on about, but i am starting to understand
Are there too many Group Ones in Australian racing?
There are 4 at Caulfield tomorrow, and also 1 at Randwick. Three of these are over 1600m, the other over 2000.
In one race, it looks like almost the same field that contested a G1 two weeks ago.

@Hooroo That 16 barrier draw for Polly looks ominous, but looking at the course diagram it’s a straight 800 meters before the first turn so there shouldn’t be too much of a dogfight to get into position there. Bit trickier for Ricky in the 1400, but again, still has 550-or-so metres to find position. Good luck!!

Thanks mate. With the rain we have had overnight, I would expect a few scratchings for her to potentially jump from the 11 barrier.
So long as she runs well as this is her first real test against open class horses. Her last win was against open class but restricted to grey horses. Battletime is no mug though so was good to get past him

Really? $13 for last start winner in openclass (restricted) and having won this distance twice before
Polly Fucking Grey, Brother!

Nah mate small stakes for random shit like that.
There are two bets actually, both have the same 3 legs down and both have roosters to win as 4th leg. They both have different final legs which will discuss IF 4th leg gets up, along with possible hedge options to lock in a return. Oh and both can't win.
One is $50 to $16,037 so ony $321.75 to $1
The other is $25 to $22,095 so $884.81 to $1So the Roosters got up which means my multis are still live. Tense game!
One (the $50 one) has final leg as All Blacks to win world cup. The other ($25) has England to win.
Assuming England beat france and we both win quarters we should meet in the semis and then one progress to final and one live bet. Not sure would have the balls to ride it out so could hedge it with a big bet on the opposition.
I will be taking great interest in most gams from here on in!
I don't bet on much, but the bonus bet opportunity in the ABs vs Canada and Namibia looked too good to turn down.
I've invested the proceeds in insurance bets against two horrendous outcomes - England to win RWC and Canterbury to win the Mitre10 Cup.
Canterbury is quietly acquiring a bunch of ex-ABs for the play-offs!

Big day punting. Looks like their will be a lot of short price favourites that will take some knocking over. Be tough to find some value
-
Great tip. Put some of my free bets on it. Got it at $13. Boom

-
Up the Polly!!!

I ended up getting 7.44 fuck you Sportsbet

@chchfanatic I put 10 ew on it at $13 and $4 and got back $121.14. How does that work
