Que, crash....?

Scorpion hasn't had a start in Oz....unless you mean the training track...well that is a risk every trainer takes when he/she takes their charge out in the early hours to "put them through their paces..."
I agree with you that there are many profitable opportunities for the alert punter to "pay their way" over the MC carnival in the so-called "lesser races" and the couple of weeks after. These are the races I concentrate on and usually return a profit.

Cheers.
