I like Magical Miss to beat Fields of Omagh. Can Northely run the distance with that sort of weight. If he does run his normal race he will be run down by one of the above lightweights.
Go Magic!

Again, some great points osulldj -

The only way that our views differ, is that you can still find value from proven weight and distance horses which have below average recent form. Punters tend to look at the last three or so starts and then write off poor performers. These horses surprise at big odds in races like this.

You know, I have had more picks on this post than a starving chicken, but the late mail says "Beekeeper"... I don't know, but I hear good... If he win this, he will nearly start favourite in the Melbourne Cup. Wonder if he's worth an early saver?

Gotta Love it!

Based on information and the changing complexity of this race, I have decided to change my tip and bet for this race to....

The Secondmortgage.

Good Luck All.

As the north star travels into the parallel universe, my cat sat on a mat that was blue and as my coffee spilt across the table, it left a white shaped funny looking star-
MAGUIRE at any old odds might sneak a place.

I split open that starving chicken to have a look at it's entrails. They were all black and yellow, so I took the hint and plonked it all on Beek... then I thought NO... by crikey they're telling me NORTHERLY.

With Magical Miss out, tips now are Pentastic, Distinctly Secret, BeeKeeper & Freemason.

A quick tally to-date of tips on this thread, reads as follows:

BEEKEEPER – 5
NORTHERLY – 4
DISTINCTLY SECRET – 3
RAIN GAUGE – 3
UNIVERSAL PRINCE – 3
FIELDS OF OMAGH –3
FREEMASON – 3
PENTASTIC – 2
HELENE VITALITY – 2
REPUBLIC LASS – 2
TULLY THUNDER – 1
DASH FOR CASH – 1
PRIZED GEM – 1
HAIL – 1
THE SECONDMORTGAGE – 1
MAGUIRE -1

Well leaping leprechauns, where have all you new chums come from?

Go off for a wee spell, and by gosh find almost a whole new community!

Conga! Conga! Gets me every time.

Caulfield Cup eh? Sounds like a important event!

Gonna hit the bookies tomorrow – Pentastic, BeeKeeper, Freemason & The Secondmortgage. :smile:

Speakin of bookies:


When the little old lady fronted up to the bookie for yet another payout, the bookie was perplexed.

“You must be using becareful’s system”

“Would like to, but becareful keeps his system under lock & key” says the little old lady

“In that case” says the bookie, “you must be getting your tips from Equine Investor or perhaps Hermes, or that new chap on the block – the milky bar kid”!

“No such luck” says the little old lady, “if you must know, I just stick a pin in the paper”!

“But how have you managed to pick four winners in the one afternoon” says the bookie in astonishment


“Oh I was in a hurry this morning & couldn't find my pin, so I had to use a fork” she explained

:lol:
