Game on girls.

Great week with the comp finally getting a profit & over doubling our strike rate. 14 wins this week, 2 more than the first 3 weeks combined.
MayZ got all 4 selections in but Dutchy cut The Elephants lead in half with Gamble Me getting up at $17. Thiele had a nice result, but had his quinny & main selection in the same race, if Niconero had saluted I'd have to have cut the minor result. Sheik arsed the last with the toppy getting up replacing the scratched Zipanese.

Forgot last week to give kudos to the Elephant for tipping us into Devil Moon at 20/1 odd, thank Christ he did'nt put it in his selections or he would have relegated the rest of us into oblivion

Bit of housekeeping, Constance Perm has missed the last 3 & been given the dick & Mighty Tiger, Booney & Joey are all on 2 strikes & on the verge.

Week 5 results
Dutchy $170
Thiele $98
