So close yet so far on Pirate Queen just not good enough.

Macs Tune $32 ??? woohoo ,,,stuck in the office today...having fun though...
who would have thought the sun would be out and shining...
track is playing well...

Well done there Mav I decided to stick with La Sizeranne she was weighted to well not to have something on her noticed she got hammered late on the TAB very good win I couldn't believe the price Gee I Jane was I know she had exceptional form but she wasnot well weighted there at all.

Damn Katsidis ******* thought Empyreal was home there 3rd time I have been knocked off on the post today very annoying.

Only winner ive had today was Sirmione which i only had in an all up and lost it on the next race anyway, just trying to save some money by not betting every race has cost me being up. Not doing well at all!!!! Ahh well Daunting Lad will get me up in the GOOJ Stakes. I hope......

Well Impatient Star was the 1st one other than Accardo, Aerated, La Sizeranne who didn't find the quicksand over the last 50 metres on me today that one put me up for the day but between Pirate Queen and Empyreal I really could have had a huge huge day, Go Silky Red Boxer :)

I was hoping that Silky Red Boxer would get home but I ended up having a little saver on Spirit of Tara because of the odds thought it would be favourite or very close to it certainly a deserved win.

Hi Guys...a funny sort of day ....had to work which sukd but managed to see the 1st and 4th race....thought this morning it would be raining allday..been funny weather we've been having with some parts of Brissie getting hardly any rain at all..
will check the video tomorrow and see if there were any runs that should be noted..
Race 1.
2.80 about General Patton...not a bad start to the day......always looked the winner ..easy race with no surprises..
Race 2.
Scratched...
RAce 3.
Greccolo was alot better odds than i thought...happy to jump on and he was very brave......loss for me
Race 4.
BAcked Plachutta e/w ..did ok but the winner was very impressive..
another loss for me...
Race 5.
Good race to watch...misssed the bandwagon here with a few friends of mine cleaning up with Natural Destiny...,.i just needed to see the horse in the flesh to be confident enough...if i was at the track maybe ?? but hindsights a wonderful thing.
Race 6.
Stuck with La Sizeranne ...the track was ok i thought,,and racing fair...was happy with the $6...nice trifecta and a nice piece of the 1st4 was handy....
RAce 7.
Classic Karla was just flying at the end...would have been nice if he got a place..he owes me a bit now...
Race 8.
Backed Deuxieme...havent seen the race but it was typical Spirit of Tara would win after i'd been on him lately...0 for 5 in the wet and he wins this..deserves a win i suppose but it would have been nice if he did this last week,,,,(now i know how Raw felt with Cocolare last week),,,
All in all 2 from 6 ...happy with that :)

Other states.
Sydney
Thunderbirdrgo...loss
Macs Tune ..woohooo a nice win ...would have been nicer if i hadnt split the stake with Silkn Money but it was still a very healthy result...the tri was fantastic ..problem is with a split stake 1st4 i didnt have enough room for the 15 that got 4th...if i had gone souly on Macs Tune that 15 would have snuck into 4th....oh well.
Eastwestdancer..loss
still a very nice result in Sydney :)
Melbourne
Losses with General Conclusion and Marwina LAss
Toowoomba

14 races for me today with 4 winners..,,,more than i thought i'd be having a go at but i started nicely and that always gives me alittle confidence..
managed to jag some real nice divies ... and on a hard day i think you need these to help keep your head above water..

Well done Raw we seemed to pick a few even on a hard day...cant wait to see the videos and see how handy this Natural Destiny is..

ps..heard a whisper about Carlyle Arch in the next at Toowoomba....at the 6's not bad value..

3 from 6 on top there for me and got on Accardo $3, Natural Destiny $4.4 and my big go of the day Ring of Fire at $5.

well done Filante on a tuff day..looking forward to next week at the Sunny Coast.

ps..anyone get on Carlyle Arch ?? Goltz can sure ride there at toowoomba...finished off a nice day and pays for tomorrow :)
