Be very careful with Late Mail selections.
A mate of mine was shares in a horse that was with a certain well known Brisbane stable a while back and it was due to have it's first start.
The trainer told them that it was no real chance and they should keep their powder dry for another day.
Lo and behold it comes up as the Late mail special for the day.
Finished down the track at a very short quote.
Don't know where the tipster got the info from, but it was way wide of the mark.
Further to the above story, the leader of the syndicate that was handling the $$$$ for everyone wasn't passing it on to the trainer, so the trainer more or less bushed the horse into a paddock at his place waiting for the fees.
The horse didn't start again, even though it seemed to have some ability.
Couple of lessons there folks.
