So farken goood!!!
Have landed two small 200 to 1 multis over the last few days. One of horses (to place) and one on NFL. Sucks when you only put a few $ on them and a $500 or $600 take could have been thousands!

Just giving this thread a bump ahead of the Spring Carnival.
Heading to Melbourne for the last day of the carnival on November 10, so that'll be fun, if a little drunken/expensive/untidy.
Awesome! I have never been. Would be awesome to go with a horse. Dreams are happily free.
I went to the Cup & Oaks Day back in 2007. Punting didn't go well at all, but the filly viewing was magnificent.
I get to Oaks Day each year, its top of the corporate calendar - don't see a lot of horses (or fillies) though, mostly car park action. Great day though

Dogging? That would make for a great day along with the atmosphere...

Really want to do the Spring Carnival in Melbourne in all its glory. Maybe next year.
I'm booked in for Magic Millions on the Gold Coast in January which should be fun.

Is that when they have the mixed sale? We may have a in-foal mare for sale (Galaxy Miss who was retired on Monday)so may well be there. In saying that, I may be getting my sales mixed up.
Polly Grey running today and she looks a bit of alright but I am concerned that the track is a good 2 which I don't love running horses on. Saving grace is that it is Pumice.

Pretty decent career for Galaxy Miss mate. You guys should be pretty happy with how she has gone and the wins she has picked up
Yeah mate, 8 wins and over $200k in prize money when you include Pearl series bonuses.
I love having her back on the farm as she loves a cuddle. She has been served by Sham Express.

That must be the one, but I was sure they was one earlier in year where the mare wouldn't be so heavily in foal.

There's a summer racehorse sale just after the Magic Millions yearling sale?

Big day on the punt today lads.
-
I'm having a huge day!! Loading up on Redzel certainly helps.
-
Yep been a good day here too
Smart melody was a real flop but iconoclasm, ball of muscle, autumn sun, redzel and big blue were goodies.
I had a futures bet on redZel at $11 but got sucked in to all the track talk and put a couple of small savers on Le romain (4th) and shoals (arse). How good was that wide run from Osborne bulls!!

Yucatan in to $11 for the Melbourne Cup after the unbelievable win in the Herbert Power, absolutely towelled the field.
Walked over the line super impressive.

Yucatan a Melbourne Cup winner in waiting: Williams
Nick Williams has declared Herbert Power Handicap winner Yucatan as the Cup winner in waiting after dominant display
The CliffsofMoher, another of Lloyd's runners, had a nice practice run in the Caulfield Stakes.

Might need to change the name of this thread...seems people talking of their great tips once they have come in, instead of sharing before.
Sheesh, hold out cnuts.
