Just that in some newspapers tipsters would put their best best and their double. I know what best best means, I am trying to work out what double means.

Two things springs to mind. ONE, double the amount you would bet on this race (horse). TWO, take the previous race selection and have a running double with this race's selection.

Couple of good races on Saturday. Sires Produce, was the win of Brava Fortune in the Karrakatta a fluke?

the re-match over the extra journey will be very interesting

Yeah most disappointing! Connections of Action Pak / Daka's Gem might as well get in line now to collect their major shares of the prize!!

Impact Rating will win this. Lovely run last start.

….selection marked double refers to next best with the actual recommended double being that selection with the best bet or vice versa [depending which races first]
...this could be a sequential double...eg. race 5 into race 6 or an all-up eg. race 1 into race 6....[i.e. half a quaddie sort of :) ]

Half of me? My son shall be named Mr Double!

Thanks iggy!

Racing & Wagering WA
 

Due to insufficient acceptors the WA St Leger (LR) 2400m, scheduled at Ascot this Saturday, has been deleted from the programme.

The WA St Leger has now been re-programmed for Saturday 19 July 2008 and will replace the Winter Cup.

Paul Harvey is so out of form, maybe he should consider retiring.

Those at club Olay disagree :D
