Bad luck on Delicata. That's one of those terrible moments when you listen to the whole race knowing exactly which damn horse is going to win!!!

No, I don't feel that bad because I rarely take first 4s and I got the trifecta which paid very nicely for a half. It would have been great to scoop the first 4 pool though. The jackpot was about $10000.

You don't like Party Pie at all in the last???

Party Pie is a nice horse but as I said I think he is a wet tracker. The race has just run, he was a little unlucky but the winner ( who I backed, thank God I get something out of the day after the Delicata debacle) was holding it and probably pulling away on the line.

Yeah I backed Jose Amigo too. I had both of them actually, but Jose Amigo was a better result for me. Funny thing is I would have definitely had a bigger bet on him if Oliver had been riding, but undoubtedly the price would have been shorter.

Well the form at Sandown went well. Just looking back at the ratings the four winners were top,third,second and second picks, and they paid (roughly) 1.50-5.50-17 and 10. I don't know what the last running double paid but it would have been nice. I always take a Quaddie too, but I didn't do the first leg because of my hangover (race 3) and only did the other ones in the run but I think I might have missed something nice there. Looking at the first leg, the winner would've been either my top or 2nd rater, it paid 4.20 quaddie paid 700.

On to happy valley!!!!!!
