2006 TIPS
 

Okay, not really serious about anything today. Having said that, I think you could do worse than follow Greg Ryan at Inverell. He appears to have some good rides. Anyway, for what it's worth, here are a few thoughts for today:

Inverell R3 - 3 LIBBY'S RAINBOW, 1 Timbers
Inverell R5 - 6 TOP BEAT, 2 Amaizing Lady
Inverell R6 - 4 BELVOIRE, 5 Hayil Stone Miss
Inverell R7 - 2 FRISCO'S HAREM & 5 DESKTOP MAGIC
Inverell R8 - 2 IRISH LOUP, 5 Lambeth Walk
Ascot R8 - 6 BLACK TOM & 2 EARLY EXPRESS

Tread warily. Tomorrow's racing looks FAR better.

new plan of attack
 

is this with your new ratings sportz..........

I'm particularly keen on Frisco's Harem....looks amazing value

No mate. As I said, I'm not taking today too seriously. I did do some quick ratings for the Inverell and Perth Cups, but the other races were just my personal assessments after looking at the form. I'm wary of the Perth Cup as I think something could possibly upset the two favs. I think the Inverell Cup looks like it may be a good betting race.

This year, I'm going to really concentrate on major metro racing days and feature races, because that's where I do best.

..... or perhaps not.

Well, Greg Ryan managed 2 wins from the 5 races I thought he had a chance in. I thought he may have done even better than that, but if you had backed him for the win in those 5 races, you would have shown a profit.

Oh no, a protest. Surely not. :o

Wouldn't it just be typical if one of my horses successfully protested against another one of my horses and I end up with 2nd, 3rd & 4th!!! :(

What the hell happened there??? Sorry. :o

Phew. Protest dismissed. Thank goodness.
