@Hooroo i just looked at that. i can see why it is paying $81. Any reason i should completely ignore the form and the record? Do you know it had a "special breakfast" this week?
I've only got one on today. All Spring Carnival i have been doing well by betting on anything that has a winning streak, no matter where they are. So there are horses coming in having won 4 on the bounce in the country, and because they have zero metro form, they still get light weights and big odds. Like anything, it's hardly any sort of guarantee, but it seems to be paying off this spring.
There is one in the last at Flemington today called The Mobot that is unbeaten (4 from 4), the last one being at Morphetville. It is currently paying $34 and seems to be heading out.
It's on last chance and onto a good track finally.
i had one of those. the result was the same as the rest of them...
This thing has led and won though.....
dammit!!!
anyway, $40 of my hard earned is on each way
$40??!! hey big spender!!
ba da ba daaaaaaa.
I'm not silly enough to hit an $81 shot heavily UNLESS it happens to be one of ours (Which Solomon may well be)
i was being serious!!! I've chucked $5 each way because that's a good return on something i don't expect to do anything. If it comes in I'll celebrate your win though
This is why i never have massive wins on the punt, i am too risk averse.

Good enough for me...
I'm on my way to Flemington now, weather looks a bit shit unfortunately
it's won on both heavy and good as well, so yay?
-
@mariner4life I doubt you are as risk adverse as me...$5 e/w is my max bet...
My account is almost empty now after spending a bit much on donkeys in Melbourne, and the month only just started!!

Right - I'm with you Hooroo - but, to a significantly lesser extent.

Fingers crossed mate.
Ooohh! Finally! I have no dental floss at work and have something stuck in my teeth since lunch which has finally come free!!! Happy days!
Just read the write up on Solsy (Solomon) "Has placed at Matamata first up in 8 months so can get some of this" Ha ha! That sounds more positive than I expected. He's opened at $26 & $5

@Chris-B said in Rough tips and other bets...:
@Hooroo I love a good 80 to 1 shot.
Something to look forward to for the afternoon!
Just to talk it up..... Has a 3kg claimer, Chelsea Burdan on and she's a good up and coming apprentice.

Nice! I hope it sets you up for the day!

Im in a cab, missed it, what happened?
I'm not rich I take it?
-
@Chris-B said in Rough tips and other bets...:
@Hooroo Oof - was looking promising most of the way!
I missed it too!! Did she lead and then drift away?
-
@Chris-B said in Rough tips and other bets...:
@voodoo Led at the turn - run down halfway down the straight.
Yep - exactly, Hooroo.
I'm stunned
-
@mariner4life that's a fiver I'll never get back!!
-
@mariner4life An 80-1 certainty that didn't come in.
First time it's happened to me!
-
hey at least @hooroo created some fake excitement for a few hours

@taniwharugby said in Rough tips and other bets...:
hey at least @hooroo created some fake excitement for a few hours
we were hanging out for a result in fucking Otaki!
Who says betting has no place in society...

Yep - always good to have something to look forward to.
AND I was supposed to go into Nelson to pick up a laptop that was being repaired - and just got an email that it's not ready yet - so I'm miles ahead!
-
ha ha funny..since the only other person to put balls on the line today was @mariner4life with a
tipsuggestion for the day.. so i guess we all are now hanging out til the last at Flemington?stuff the oaks lol
-
Harbour Views, R6 at Flemington looks like it meets @mariner4life criteria...
-
@taniwharugby said in Rough tips and other bets...:

certainly does. 2.40 favourite though, that's a bit short to get me interested. I bet on the #2 there for his last start win at $26 (i love Sundays in the country)
#9 looks interesting at $26
-
@mariner4life that sounds like my kind of thinking...
No point winning $24 for a $10 bet, better off with a chance at $260 for a $10 bet

exactly!! and the more you bet, the more you win!
Nothing sucks more than being on a $2.40 favourite that gets tipped over. Nothing is better than being on the outsider that tips over a $2.40 favourite!
-
@mariner4life sadly the outsiders I usaully pick are like, well, like Dana's Prophecy
-

a lot are, but you get a couple in the day...
I very very rarely bet on anything paying less than $5. Which is why i haven't been as affected by the number of favourites getting tipped over this spring as some of the real punters have been
-
@mariner4life so are these tips you get or just you looking at the odds and form?
-
Sweet, I bet $10 to win & place on Savaheat, my pick of the kiwibreds in the first at Flemington and he stormed home, paid handsomely helping me recover everything I lost Tuesday.
-

odds, form, and a lot of hope.
Also helps if i am watching the coverage.
it sounds like skill, but i want to make it absolutely clear i don't really know what i am talking about and it's guesswork

stunned!! Here I have been following your every post waiting for your expertise...only to find out you are just a bit more experienced at guessing than me

I want to wager on the only Kiwi in Race 2, but she’s a first-time starter who’s dropped from 20/1 down to 7/1 (probably b/c the punters see the “(NZ)” next to her name). Too short for my blood, ‘tho I may be tempted to drop a $2 WP ticket on her... She was a $500K purchase at Karaka this year.

i can't even call it educated guesswork.
It does mean i do really shit on days when favourites clean up. like every day in Cairns recently
-
I put 2$ to win & place on the Kiwi, was 17/1 at post, just nipped at the wire. Looks like a good horse, comms are talking him up. BAAQYAH (NZ)
[Update] Oooh, good. $15.30 for the place, I’ll take that every time!
