Rough tips and other bets...

Friends horse (not so rough) running again this week, was initially set for the Metropolitan and ended up running third at $7 a place.
Hardly a roughy, (Sir Charles Road) but running again this weekend in the St leger, but probably worth a nudge, likely be paying around $15 I would have thought this week for the win. Was in great condition last week and if it gets a good run should go close.
Their other main horse, the Bostonian (they have a few), missed its chance to get into the Everest, but Manikato next up in a couple of weeks.. thankfully a place was all I needed last week for my multi based on Polly Grey.. Hooroo you champ.

@bayimports your friend has good horses
-
Tell me about it, hard keeping up with all their runners, but I generally get told about most of them. They did incredibly well on the now retired Mufasa.
Unlike most of us they do have a bit of cash too

Everest draw was interesting.
Pierata gets gate 1. Santa Ana Lane gets 2. Arcadia Queen gets 3.
What are the chances of the 3 favourites drawing the inside 3 barriers.
Redzel gets 7. While i don't think he can win, i will have money on him, because i can't fathom the thought of missing the 3rd of threepeat.
Not expected to be raining for a change.
What's your go?

I’m in the same boat re the 3 peat. The stable reckon he’s the best he’s ever been and mate of mine a stable hand there so will dig a bit deeper on it.
Not sure that the inside draw is great for those 3 and they may get shuffled back. May not be a major though as should be a heap of speed. Will have a good look tomorrow or Friday but a horse like sunlight or classique legend at a price could be worth a play. Stay tuned...

I got on Mer de Glace early for the Caulfield Cup. But now I've seen it drew gate 21!

My only early for caulfield cup was Mr Quickie to run a place at $8. Not super confident after last run

I've had a look at a few of the European runners' efforts on the videos. Constantinople is a great look at each way odds, judging by his 2nd at York in August over almost the same distance.

Mirage Dancer.
First start in Aus, but record over the distance is 10:3-4-2. Gets a mid-gate, and at a price of $22 that i got this morning, I'm happy.
One "quirk" of the field, reckon it might be the first time i have seen Big Duke not the top weight. Poor bugger always carries the most, despite not winning since the St Ledger 2 years ago.

Any bends on that York track (or do that call it a course up there)?
Yep (at least from my memory of the vid)
-
I have made a case for backing nearly every runner in The Everest, but have settled on Pierata. Dazzling sectionals in a soft 7 no less, awesome this time last year and the most important stat, it has pie in its name.
Mmmm pie
-
Is any one choosing The Chosen One?
-
That's some bullshit in the Everest
SAL with gate 5 wins by miles.

1st and 3rd!!!!!
