even funnier I had shadoways in the treble and took him out for Swick that would be rather ironic if the protest is upheld that would be amazing what a game this is thats why you keep coming back i guess

had a shocker in that i had first and third legs of treble with efficient and el segundo in middle leg
had a couple of little returns late and decided to go wide in the last..yes you guessed it ..i backed arbitration On the nose :eek: Paid $49.00 :D

Hard day at the office but came away with something in the pocket..

Got Red For lou at 10's nice overs,,,Got 2.80 for Vormista which turned out to be unders...and a nice place divie on Jdane..
3 results from 10 races,,,,bit of struggle..
glad i left the turnball alone...dissappointed with Red Lord (havent seen the replay yet) Sleek Chassis has officially been sacked,,
Funny track today at Flemo,,real hard to get a good form read on some of these races i'd expect...

Liking On A Jeune tomorrow in the Benalla Cup at 6's ,,,actually have a ticket for the MC lol at 61/1 ..you just never know ??
also Anamato at 51/1 for the CC and after today i'm alittle more confident..
not sure about my black tom ticket now :(

hope you all had a good one :)

LOL

i dont think watsonnek had a good day today :)

ps,,,did i happen to mention i backed Cascade Now in the last in Adelaide ??
and only because of the name and trainer..

lol ;)

Cheers Mav :)

Thought it was quite a tough day today. Luckly Vormista got home. I cost myself a little though. Was keen on Efficient all week but didnt want to back it at the short price as it had opened up at 11 during the week and I missed it. I was planning on backing Devil Moon. Ended up saying I would back Efficient if it got to 9's. So I hung around the ring and it gets to 9. Only had a saver on Devil Moon as at 16 I thought it was overs. Ended up getting what I wanted though so I can't complain

Apart from that had a tough day.

I'm not too sure what to make of the track. The rail was out 9m so i'm not too sure. The rail was off and not the place to be. I have only seen the replay of the Turnbull once on TV. From what I saw I think almost everything that raced on the inside ended up getting swamped and could not make up ground. There was one that looked to race well though in this part of the track. Zipping was back with Efficient and run on very well on the inside, where Efficient ended up in the last few (althought I think he was ridden upside down).

Take nothing away from the winner here, I am a big fan but I am not too sure what to make of this race.

Any thoughts?

tell me about it mate, had an all up on, only had red lord to run a place for me to collect, but thats racing i guess. shadoways showed some form again which was good to see, when he burst out i thought it was all over. didnt see absolut glams race but happy with the place div.

finished in front for the day so cant complain.

Some very unusual results. A total mystery for serious form students. It really was a day for darts. I've been keeping most of my dosh in my pocket since the flu outbreak and sticking to mostly interest bets. I think I'll keep doing that for the rest of the carnival!

We now know one thing for sure, Marasco can't run 2000m, not even with blinkers and a softer track [couldn't run the 1800m either last time in]. Flemington is the horse's best track too so far.

Horses just weren't running on in the straight even in races with enough speed to set up backmarkers.

New tracks take about a year to settle down but then again training is all over the place and all the horses have had shots which might have had various side-effects etc. etc.

$186,000 Quaddie!

A great day for Bookies mostly.

Not usually a bagger of jockeys but what was Nash doing on On A Jeune ?? never had a chance of a miracle inside run and could have tracked Viva or Hoffmeister into the race out wide,,,had heaps of horse under him,,
on track for the Geelong Cup i suppose,,,,
