Tell me how you can pick Pantani...

Last 3 Starts...

Beaten 9.8l, 22.3l and 13.6l (over slow, good and dead)...

3 wins from 35 starts, career place strike rate of less than 30%...

Sometimes I wonder why I even bother with this punting caper!

LB

Well, he did win the SA Derby at the same track 2 years ago, and he was also a winner over the distance having won the Duke of Norfolk at Flemington just 2 months ago, carrying 6 kg more than he had today.

Having said all that, no I certainly didn't back him either. I didn't bet at all in the race because it just looked too hard for my liking. Is it just me or do there seem to be a higher % of upset results in big races in SA than there are in other states?

By the way, racecaller Terry McAuliffe did actually pick him 4th today. He picked 2-14-1-5 and they came home 5-16-2-1, so he got 3 of the first 4.

Hi Sportz,

I remember those wins in particular the Duke of Norfolk wherein I was impressed enough to place a bet on him in the Chairman in Sydney.

But after that it just got worse. I have a trifecta system for 3200m races wherein I put every horse that has won at 2500m and beyond in for third selection.

So, I knew he was around. I just cannot get over such strong form reversals as this. It's not like he was running 11 and 12 beaten 5 or 6 lengths.

I would just like to know how you pick these winners????

Just as long as you took the pies and the bus fare your in front.
