System yes Mr.Lofty RETAINS his spot in the little black book - just wish Moody would take him to Flemington..... His run 1st up was indicative that he is in top form, just needs the right race(s)!

Gday All,

I liked the races you blokes put up to rate. All I did all day Saturday was box the 5 in quinellas ( no one will convince me that it is not the best value bet going around) in the 2 races we rated 10 times... It was a nice result.. bring on more of these races :) I can go bad for the next few weeks and still be travelling ok... it was fun

Thanks and well done xpt. :)

Have you ever had a bet on the 'Any 2' or 'Duet' or can't you take those on your TAB??? I've had a lot of fun with the Any 2 since Unitab brought it in.

Gday Sportz,

I was at the track at Caloundra a few weeks ago ( SS Coast) and I think that was the bet I was playing around with, The NSW TAB doesn't have that bet type, they tried something similar in weird sort of way with the spinner.. There was no input from the punter with the spinner bet, unlike the duet..


I love quinelllas they are my favourite multi bet form. I reckon they are always fair value...

i think the any 2 pays way unders compared to quin

Personally I like running doubles, they seem to offer the best value with overlay selections.

16.80(irish crusader) x 4.20(youth) RD=$72.80

Could easily have got it in a 5x5 bet, outlay $25.00 return $72.80

Gday Chrome...

I agree with ya there, when I have been in VIC I have taken em and they are a great bet... I usally go 4*4.. Unfortunatley.. we don't have em here,, but that may change... I know people say ya can have all ups, but i like the running dubs better..

But there's 3 divs instead of 1 and they don't have to come 1st and 2nd. They can come 1st and 3rd or 2nd and 3rd. I got an Any 2 yesterday that paid $156. If I had taken a quinella I would have got nothing because the horses finished 1st and 3rd.

Hi!
If you are betting on running doubles it means you are sure your first horse is going to win?! Am I right?
If so then if you would have put $25.00 on your first leg and as it happens it won, you would have got $420.00 back
and no worries about the second selection coming up!
Did you ever consider that???
Cheers!
