OK well another Saturday over, and the leaderboard has altered greatly!
Yesterday was a day of great contrasts. People like Sirpent tipped brilliantly, astoundingly well, finding 5 winners from 16 at odds of $2.0,$2.10,$5.80,$4.20 and $16.20. Importantly though Sirpent's record could have been even better, with a significant number running seconds and thirds. Sportz tipped very well, finding $14.10 worth of collects from 8 tips. Goldcoaster got two wins from four, Zorro 3 from 7.
And then, there were the contrasts. Most markedly - me, tipping zero from 8 with barely a placing. Chuck was in the doldrums with me, also tipping 0 of 8, our ladder leader Raw Instinct had a forgettable one with 0 of 7 and although he has been replaced as leader he retains second. Heavyweight was also one of the zero brigade, tipping zero of 6.
However, as in religion in punting we are constantly offered the chance to repent, and today we have been offered (praise the Lord) a choice of 8 meetings in six states to repent with. I certainly will be bowing at the alter of the form.
Today of course marks the beginning of the new tipping week. For Seeker11, bl4dez, svenlad and random I have had to assign 5 bets for 5 losers for the week, as I didn't see any tips by you guys. If I missed them (always a possibility) alert me to it and I will rectify the situation.
Below is a simple version of the ladder as it stands right now, and attached is the fuller version.
Good luck today all, I'll be on and off this thread all day while doing form for today and tomorrow if anyone wants to post or tip or comment, and of course - Go Elvis and Armee!
AAh I've just noticed Chucky boy that you've tipped on Honkers today. Have been thinking about that one, and I remember at the beginning we sort of said only the Aussie races. I think we should stick to that, not only b/c not everyone follows overseas racing (making it a disparate contest) but also because the Aussie totes on the GA and Elvis races will be absurd. Sorry mate.
