Interested to know how you / we could conclude that Snaalee was “the best bet all day” given you rated many other 1st selections for the day at shorter odds & the gap between Snaalee & your 2nd rated was not as great as the gap between your 1st & 2nd selections for many of the other races on the day :???:

Gday Betty,
Snaalee gave me great pleasure as it is a horse that I have put a fair bit of cash on in the past and it gave me pleasure that it came home at decent overs. I first started followng this horse when she was a young un running around in SE QLD.An I have stuck ever since.. My wording as "best bet"not be quite correct, but then again I don't measure a "best bet"by the gap between prices. well not always. Probably the safest bet on that card was Dune Buggy in Race 6, it has been in slashing form, it was a horse that did a lot of racing in the area I live in, but couldn't get out of it's own way as a rule. Since it has been shifted to Nth QLD it has had 9starts for five wins and 3 seconds, it was only out of the money on it's first start in Nth Qld. I dont think there was a horse on that card with a record like that. tho I could be wrong..

As for HighRon Mackay R4, we will have to take your word for that :smile:

Here is my full market for that race... I have never, in the past had my ethics questioned, with or without a smileface. I simply made the point that it was rated an equal price, along with a couple of others.. As you can see, in my opinion it was a very tuff race, you quite often get races in NTh Qld where they are very equally graded The race in my opinion was 3X $5 the field.. The only reason it wasn't posted is because of the way I sorted the race in xcel.. it happens :smile:
MACKAY RACE 4
5 $5.3 Wicked Instinct
6 $5.3 Rhubarb Red
1 $5.3 Adnupak
4 $9.4 Shaddock
2 $12.5 Enjoy It
8 $12.5 Manzala
10 $12.5 Miss Julie
12 $12.5 Highron
7 $16.4 Flying Fibs
13 $21.9 Do The Twist
9 $29.2 Gillette
11 $40.4 Mans A Native
Hope the above helps settle your curiostity.
