Geelong Cup!

[Tenacious Spirit]

I am very keen on Men at Work, very, very keen.

Great record at the distance, never missed a place.
Zabeel on the up with a great SR.

Beaten 2.5 by railings last start over the same trip when sat wide the entire trip and boxed on gamely for third. Would have only been beaten 1 length for mine if had a good run. We know this form is good.

Given a couple of weeks to get over the hard run.

Fill the kitty for cox plate day.

Sarrerra for second. Only start at Geelong a win. Last start behind Leica who is gonna be a star.

Command And Conquer for third. Following a close up run behind Activation a couple of runs ago. Peak fitness now.

What are peoples thoughts on the murray bridge cup? Squilani doesn;t have a flash record over the mile.

Don Raphael
Rizon
Show Barry

[Dazz]

What about Mr Innocent ??

Needs a big run to qualify for Melb cup.

[Tenacious Spirit]

Do you mean Mr Celebrity?

Seems a pretty unorthadox prep to me. I don;t like horses who jump straight from a 1600 to a 2400. I don;t really understand why he would be going to the melbourne cup anyway. He can;t win the MC, it's a waste of time.

[Dazz]

Sorry, Mr Celebrity,

Get your point, its often a good to guide to winners who

Need to qualify. As per usual according to Gai its already

Won the Geelong Cup.

Well ive already put Mr Celeb & Men at work in some small

Doubles with Cox plate hopefulls, Lad of the Manor, Hotel Grand,Confectioner

Desert War, Super Kid and Perlin. All very good value Just for some interest.

TS,

Squillani very beatable.

I like Fly for me ,

1) long overdue

2) very well weighted

3) loves the track

4) Big field great for a good sweeper.

Other chances Merlot now, Get up.

[Dazz]

Ts


You can also make a push for Danalaga as a major chance

Good jock: Dean Yendall on board, major weight drop, good

Record at track.

I'm with TS,he just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
ohhh you come from a land down under

[Tenacious Spirit]

Dazz, thanks for your input on the MB cup. Think you might be on the right tram with fly for me. Merlot now would give this a mighty shake if he was at his best but he just doesn't seem to be on top of his game at the moment. But your right, there will probabaly be a bit of speed. What is the straight like at the murray bridge track, are you aware? If its long then that might give the backmarkers an entry into the race.

Also had another look at the Geelong, thought if you were taking multis you might want to throw in On a Jeune - pretty unlucky last start. There are a few place chances that are hard to seperate.

[Real Deal]

Could you imagine if the jockey was " 6'4 and full of muscle"?

[Makybe Diva]

If Childs gets a decent run, Brave Lancer should be in the finish.

[Oaksnaf]

Yeh i like the look of Don Rapheal and Mr.Celebrity to fill the first two placings in the Cup. Show Barry, Brave Lancer orOn a Juene to fill the last placing.

But for value im going with the Don.

[xptdriver]

There is no end to the ways you can do ya dough... missed the jump by 5 and gets beaten less than a half.... :( gimme a break...

Good luck to those on On A Juene all the same

[Sportz]

So mad at myself for leaving On A Jeuene out. DUMB!!! :(

Well done to the guys who had it.

[Sportz]

There is no end to the ways you can do ya dough... missed the kick by 5 and gets beaten less than a half.... :( gimme a break...


Yeah, I know. :(

[xptdriver]

So mad at myself for leaving On A Jeuene out. DUMB!!! :(

Well done to the guys who had it.

I aint bashin myself over the head about On a Juene... U cant pick em all.. It was my 6th pick, but in reality if you are looking at 6th pick u are struggling.. So with a bit of luck Mr C will be a L/S might get the cash back... If notah well, thats the luck of the punt..

[Makybe Diva]

I took the $3.50 for the place on Brave Lancer on UniTAB. Very handy pickup!

[xptdriver]

Yessssssss... Cash back.... nearly as good as backing a winner

Crazy thing is that on Sport927 this morning, Ray Huxley said that Mr Celebrity could win by 5 lengths. Well, take away the start, and I guess he did!!!

According to the TAB Racing website, it was a late scratching.

Gday Kanga

I truly wish you well with those

r they all OAj into OAJ and if so, will you get that divvie, or only half as is the case with doubles bookies, when you take one horse in a double ( one horse in both legs)

[Kanga]

Just caught the audio replay..bad luck to those on Mr C, can't believe I missed the fkn race..

XPT, the divvies already halved mate (half of 26x201) and like I said it'll need a hell of a lot of luck...as will many other rough doubles hehe..but I'm not a big punter so this time of year I love having a stack of doubles at huge odds for a little outlay.....what ****es me off though is that while it's unmanned the tab puts a limit on the amount you can bet/collect so you wear out yr clicking finger lol..

But hey, if it gets a start I've got somethin going for 11k and I can't remember winning $11k off one race for.... ages ;)

[Sportz]

Yeah, that's what I thought. I just couldn't work out why Kanga seemed to put exactly the same bet on 4 or 5 times.

Start Rant here:
And isn't that the biggest piece of hiway robbery these bastids get away with. For the life of me I don't get how they can do it.. The bookies bleat that if the horse wins the 1st leg it's price shortens in the 2nd.. so what? Stiff ****e for the leeches... If they don't want to pay fair odds dont take the bets.. It is nothing but burglary of the highest order..

XPT, me and a few mates have been saying the same for years. I have two answers:

1. Yes it is the best piece of highway robbery since Ben Hall and it gives me the chits constantly.
2. For the minimal outlay that I invest I'll quite happily take the divvie.

Cheers, Kang...
