Absolutely!

Had a day on the lounge with a lergy yesterday ( couldn't be ******, actually ) and had a great day.

"Side" account went from under $100 to over $300 by the end of the day.


My brother messaged me yesterday to see if I could place a multi for him on my account, had common purpose in his first leg in R5 @ Warwick Farm.

I thought I may aswell use it as a rover in a roving tri with 4 others hoping the fave didn't run a place.

The 13 won in a photo against the 1, I was hoping the other way around but was still a tidy tri with Purpose coming in 3rd, collected $182 for my $4 bet to set my Saturday up nicely.

In my last dozen visits to the pub on a Saturday I have only walked out with less money than I went in there with twice, and that's after a gut full of piss too, can't win a trick on a Saturday with my phone while I watch my son play cricket though.

Can ;) win its 30th race in succession tomorrow ?

You'd think so ... Tom Melbourne was $2.70 the place yesterday, looked a good price (not sure if it's come in since)

The way Winx runs her races, I think, is far more exciting. How often has she been at a point in the run where you question whether she has it in her to round them and win? Then she strolls up alongside them and waltzes past.

Black Caviar, Nolen had them brained more often than not with 200 to go and rarely looked challenged ( except for his half arsed ride in the UK ).

Winx, for mine, just.

Can't really split them but if I had to give an answer Id go BC by a whisker, just because I rate Hay List so highly. Agree with Booney though that Winx racing style is more exciting.

IMO two different types of horses, it’s like comparing a Rugby Union player to a Rugby League player.

2 different horses.
But I'd go BC, cos she was never defeated.

A jockey from the 1960s/1970s who I wont name has said
Vain would have beaten Black Caviar in races close to 50% of the time
VAIN
14 runs
12 wins
2 seconds

VAIN is related to BLACK CAVIAR
VAIN died on xmas day 1991

Vain only raced as a 2+ 3 year old, due to injury
Sometimes the star youngstars do not dominate as they get to 4 + years old
Black Caviar won at every age from 2-6 years old
Perhaps Vain might have been a match for Black Cav as 2-3 year olds- that 50% ratio the jockey suggested might be accurate
Because BC performed for longer , it most prob means it was a better aniMAL
