So much for a place thread!

In my search for good things, I've inadvertently found some nice win commodities, thus far at least. My other pick today was going to be Seymour race 6 no. 4 Majestic Duke, which got the chocolates at $6/1.9. I decided against posting it as the 3 kg apprentice was on for the first time.

Anyhoot, officially no bet today as Stephansdom won at $1.75/1.15.

Have a fine evening won't you!

If these keep going we all will.
Cheers

Oh, and lack of time!

Hopefully back on board tomorrow.

Really interesting day with the 2yo's & Japanese raiders in Sydney & Bendigo hosting the VIC Metro meeting. I've gone cross-eyed doing the form!

Best of luck team!!

Facing a big day of finger painting and slippery dips with my little one tomorrow, I thought I'd get in early.

All the action seems to be at the Sunshine Coast tomorrow:

Sunshine Coast
14:40 3-1 Divine Service $2.4/1.3 // Sett 1st // 3yG C

16:33 6-3 Qabla $9/3 // Sett 1-3 // 5yG - improved horse this prep, ran a really nice race last start, 1800 seems pet distance. Has a wide barrier to overcome.

16:53 8-7 Real Tricky $7.5/2.5 - Sett 3rd // 4yG - consistent since gelded and blinkers 3 starts back.

--------------------------
'The Almosts'

Didn't quite anticipate the massive storm that hit the Sunshine Coast on Sunday, resulting in a Heavy 8 so no bets.

Wouldn't you know it, the sole surviving selection, Divine Service, won at $6. It's getting a little outa hand here peeples..

Sunshine Coast
14:40 3-1 Divine Service $2.4/1.3 // Sett 1st // 3yG C

----------------
Rolling on, we head to the heart of the NSW breeding industry....

Scone
4-5 Blinkin Rockin' $5/1.73 // Sett 2nd // 5yG

Really nice run at this c two back on Good going. Happy to forgive last start on slow ground, as his good ratings are much stronger when it's dry. Three tries at the 900-950 for three 2nd placings, so perhaps a Tri with 5 for 2nd is the order of the day.

I'll leave it to TheOcho to decipher this posts heading.

Result
Scone 4-5 Blinkin Rockin 2nd $1.84pl

2.66x.84 = 2.23 units profit

Tri with the field for 1st & 3rd $1106

A good day's recovery.
