Above posted on 11 Sept 2016. Was I a year too early? Maybe!

I actually like Rekindling.

i got one of them right at least. I didn't have a cent on it of course.

My dog Max is going to get a kicking tonight. I back horses named Max (cos of my dog) but left Max Dynamite out of my tri.

TYPICAL!

Nah, think I've 'run my race' mate...



Still going!

Cory Brown - when he wins the Cup, I get the Trifecta!

Sorry about the last race...

Must say, I'm pretty happy with both the Derby & Melbourne Cup Trifectas...
Already been to Western Union & got some extra GBP's & Euros for our Trip

The Oaks might just pay for the holiday....

TBH, I've had an early look
Think I want to steer away from those who ran Saturday, generally.
Funny how the short priced fav for the Wakeful, Bring Me Roses, is 20/1 for The Oaks!

I'm considering Reliable Dame at this stage - $22 Powered & $3.70 the Place.
She ran well behind Astoria @ Geelong & he ran a close 3rd in the Derby.
Can entertain 1 x 4 Units on her.

The favourite will be difficult to toss, but I'm always prepared to take short priced one's on, in search of Value.
I am still a fan of Hiyaam, despite the disappointing result Saturday, missing the Place & the Waterhouse runner Pinot will be fit, of that you can be certain, & Blake Shinn will be keen to win this race, having not had a ride in the Cup & he's had a great Spring Carnival. Backing Pinot 6 Units the WIN, only & 4 Units the Place on Hiyaam.

Happy to have a 'throw at the stumps':
Trifecta: 2, 4 / 1, 2, 4, 8 / Field (for 50%) $30

How about a quick look for the Emirates Stakes Day saturday????

Not asking much...lol

Thanks for the love Lads but...

Please don't be fooled - I too am a 'mug punter', but I keep coming back each year hoping to crack it big
TBF, I've had a good Spring - that is undeniable (the hangover this morning is proof of that )

The beauty of the punt is there is always another race or meeting or Carnival to have a crack at
So, we keep going.

As for the previews, I do enjoy reading form, predicting pace/speed maps & looking for VALUE.
I am appreciative that I have THIS Forum to express my views & discuss issues around my passion(s).

The one thing I've learned over doing this for 30 odd years is unless you get the PRICE you want, don't bet - if the price you want is Even Money & the horse is Even Money, great. But if its $1.95, its unders. I never back horses under $8 anyway, but if I've assessed it @ $12 & $4, & its showing $11 & $3.80, I won't take it. Sure if it places I'm kicking myself for not taking it, but I console myself with the thought that it wasn't MY Price. That may mean I have underestimated the Horse or the Market, but so be it.

By no means am I a 'Gun Analyst' like Gator or Hutchy on racing.com, but by the same token, I like to think I'm disciplined @ least.
The only time I take the Exotics is Carnival time (Spring, Autumn or a Major Race like the Stradbroke in QLD, The Adelaide Cup or Goodwood here, etc.) - because the Pools are so much larger than normal. I have found (over my records, yes, I keep records) that Box Trifectas, in the main, lose alot. You are better to take 'Legs'. That said, it also appears the the 'value' has gone out of the Trifecta as a bet option & the Pick 4 is becoming a much better value bet - albeit, much harder to get & for a smaller %. I assume its because of the Tax that is taken from the Pool?

Anyway, we'll be back again tomorrow to give a % of yesterday's success back to the bookies Swings & Roundabouts Lads
My head hurts! But I am at work.

Dylan Cabooche.
You ******* imbecilic wanker

Yep... what an arsehole! You just don't do that, do you?

I’m going to have a few bets around Sweet Mischief at the boosted odds of $101 in the Oaks. Good run 2 starts back and then had the “Jaoa the horse slaughter in Australia” on board. Only a maiden but I’m a Tony McEvoy fan

Na, I don't know it what it achieves either.
