Been raining on and off overnight. Still raining now. Could have a slow track tomorrow if it keeps up.

So what has the weather been like over there today, rain stopped?

I live about 20 mins drive north of Belmont Paddy, hasn't stopped raining all day. Heavy showers past couple of hours.

Only about 10 minutes south Paddy. Ditto rain and plenty of it!

Thanks fellas, sounds like I should do my form for a wet track.

Been absolutely shocking weather in Perth last 24 hours Paddy. Just a max of 15 today! Weather tomorrow 22 with showers clearing.
Wet track form (where you can find it) certainly looks the way to go.

And throw in ROSE CROIX. Who knows could do a 'kelliewood'

Thanks Placid Ark, roman@oz and Paddy :)

Only wish I was more confident. I would have won MORE!! :D

Hi watsonnek
Ive noticed you are posting selections for WA races most days
If you dont mind me asking do you bet on every race?

Only started betting for real past few weeks.
Up to then just “paper” transactions – in early trial mode.
Consider still in trial mode although tweaking less often.
Don’t bet every race.
The stronger the class – more disclosed and consistent form – the more likely I will have a bet.
Think you would go broke betting every race no matter how good your “system” was.
Type of bets vary depending on my forecast scenario.
Betting propositions not necessarily include only those selections posted.
Just post the top 4-6 rated. No expected margins or prices.
Use at your own peril :)

Thanks for responding watsonnek and good luck with your future ratings!
