In the one before I backed poto duoro, and in that one was on oda and the toppy.

One can see why I make few public picks.


Glenn

never mind Glenn - all punters are frequently wrong!! I have bet in two races today and been wrong each time!

onto the next!!

Yeah, my tips aren't going very well either.

Duritz, I take it you only bet for the win? Oda paid well for the place.

Correct - win only. I know the arguments for and against, it's a personal preference. Here's what I like in the next.

race 6 4.37
seln mgn price name
10 0.0 $7.9 KADESA
7 0.3 $9.2 DELICATA
2 0.6 $10.5 ALL ELEGANCE
9 0.7 $11.0 COUNTRY JOY
8 0.7 $11.2 REFACE
5 0.7 $11.3 SONARCHI
6 1.0 $13.8 ARRIERE
11 1.1 $14.5 ALL CHARISMA

I backed Kadesa when it fell in first up, I think the trainer is an ABSOLUTE genius, however it's too short today. It's first up win was moderate only. This is an even race, not even because it's competitive, even because they are a moderate lot, all of about the same ability. This is a race to not back anything if it's not 10's or longer in my own. However, if Kadesa has a future it has to beat them. They are average, any horse going anywhere would beat this lot.

My idiocy knows no bounds. Here I was, looking at the form for the race after, I had backed All Elegance but I had not as yet backed Delicata, and I look across and they're about to jump! Quickly, hastily do I try to back Delicata, it being a juicy overlay, but the race was closed.... I cannot believe that.

Bad luck mate.

I missed the race too, but that's because I was busy concentrating on Ipswich R6 where I did very well. :D

By the way, I actually picked the first 4 in my 6 picks on this forum, but didn't put one on. It jackpotted!!!

Ooh that hurts - however it shouldn't hurt if you don't take them usually. If they are your regular bet though and you didn't take one just on this occasion, then that hurts. I know what hurting feels like, I am hurting right now. Of course Delicata would keep kicking on!

OK well we need the winner of the last now to assuage my pain!!! Here's my ratings. Davidoff is VERY well in at the weights....

race 7 5.17
seln mgn price name
1 0.0 $2.9 DAVIDOFF
8 1.1 $5.4 JOSE AMIGO
5 1.9 $9.7 WHOS IN CHARGE
7 2.5 $21.2 PERODAN
4 2.8 $26.3 BENEVOLE
3 3.0 $37.4 PARTY PIE
11 3.3 $48.7 BETA PLUS
9 4.0 $90.9 BEERBOHM TREE

Jesus! Just looked at the odds, I knew Party Pie would be right in the market but not $1.80!!! I have rated him such long odds because I think he MAY be a wet tracker...... We'll soon know! I'll either be a hero or a moron on this race!

Duritz

PS - I am already a moron after the Delicata incident....

Anyway if I get beat, never mind, I am about to start the form for Happy Valley tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
