globe derby monday 24/12/2007 & a birthday call

[G]

Bayman, Boof A'Court might not have been the only one asleep in the race but HE WAS the only one on a $1.50 pop that had lengths on his opposition.
The only thing he got right was wearing the correct colours.

it was 1.20 on course, i thought it was too short, i thought i'd back it at 8/10 or better if that was bet i would of backed it but i stayed out as imo it was way too short as it was taking on older horses

[G]

$1.20 on course is part of the reason its a waste of time going and its ditto for Damarell. Im just spewing it was a quaddie and treb race.

There was plenty of $1.70 to $1.80 on Betfair. Why go trackside ?

that is a very valid point why indeed, well at least it is a day out & you get to talk/meet people like CHEIFY, centreman etc etc out there & off course sometimes you can get some 'inside info' you/i wouldn't get if i was sitting home & besides i had a day off so i went & had i stayed home i probably have done the gutters & not had a bet

Initiative is a conclusive word
A 50/1 winner today with a Volkswagon motor beat a $1-20 fav with a Rools Royce motor.
And the Betfair layers were too clever for me betting me $1-80 for a $1-20 chance.
And they got ther xmas present
But they have tried betting like this before and made me a richer man.

On course is much more fun.
At home is much more profitable.
I will continue to make guest appearances at the track to catch up with the boys
Its great being there with Chiefy/Centreman/Bayman/Micky Crime/Ray/Jackpot Jim
Cigar Tom/Taxi Ted/Tee/Adam + John Beshara/JB/ Pat/ and all my TAB servants.
Saying Hi to my favourite on course Bookie Peter Dammerell as well.
But my employment is punting and I have to earn wages.

[bayman]

ps, G, had i stayed home & was punting i would have launched into the 1.80/1.90 fragments, so it was beneficial to be at the track

cullens hope on course he bet 1.20 & we all knew it'd lead & win

fragments racing against older horses & would probably not lead & he bet the same odds

PUZZLING either c.hope was way overs or fragments was way unders or what i think both of those are correct

[jackpot jim]

Got You Bluffed certainly Bluffed me as i had it in my Quaddie last week But couldn't put it in this week as Fragments Looked a Certainty. Unfortunatley for me and others the Certainty didn't salute today, Not Bcos the horse wasn't good enough but Bcos of another NO - BRAINER Drive (All too regular occurence at GDP).
Didn't see the Race, just heard it on the Radio which was enough to draw my conclusion.
69 something 1st 1/2 over 1800m and the 1/5 fave is last.
No ******* Wonder Turnover, Crowds and interest in the Trots is in Rapid Decline.

obviously couldnt bowl for shit hey pete!
