This is a thread for the Colac races today. First of all, I don't think I've ever done the form for Colac before. Can anyone tell me what it's like, what kind of runners it suits, etc? The OZEFORM track map helped slightly, but only slightly.

Race 1

1 Electric General (7) D Dunn
5 Tessie Rossa (4) Ryan Maloney (a 1.5)
7 Love On The Rocks (2) J Mott (a 2.0)
8 Perfect Nature (9) N Wilson

Gday Duritz,

below are the track record times for Colac..

1000m 00:57.0
1100m 01:03.2
1200m 01:10.1
1600m 01:36.6
2000m 02:01.5
2700m 03:12.0

Looking at the map I make the following assumptions.

Barriers become important in 1400 and 1600m races. There is a short run to the first turn.. 1000 and 1100 m races start in the back straight with one long turn to the 350 m straight... 1200m Races start in a shute off the back straight.

The track is 140m with a 350 m stráight

I hope that helps a bit

Yeah ta.... I've done my own form for a couple of races, I'll post those now, and I'll also post my automated ratings for the next.

Computer clearly likes the 14 in the next.... I think the computer has just left to get down to the TAB to back it, because it's $14 on the tote! Wouldn't take much notice of ratings in a race like this though.

Gday Duritz...

Was That You was obviously an over the line job.
