Was really worried about the ratings today (especially at Cheltenham). One of the rare occasions that I didn't completely agree with what the ratings came up with. In all 3 races at Cheltenham, I thought Claire Lindop on the 2nd rated horse had a great chance of beating the top rater. And so far, that's exactly how it's gone. In fact, my best bet of the day today was Lindop to win the Adelaide jockey Challenge. She was a certainty.

Can we start the new year all over again? What a disgraceful performance by the top raters.

I'm so damn mad at myself today for posting unsuitable races and races I wasn't really confident about just for the sake of it. Like Melbourne race 7, a fillies and mares race that I wouldn't normally touch and wasn't going to touch last night, but I've gone and included it today simply because of the heavy track at the Gold Coast.

Never mind Sportz, just think long term, I;m sure at the end of the year your top raters would make a profit. By the way, have you checked your results for 'any twos' when your top two rated horses are close together in the ratings? I think yesterday you picked a few quinellas and 'any twos'.

Good luck Sportz ,,,Test Edition does look well placed today ,,,

in the same race i see Magic Marvo running around,,i'm sure that horse was retired ....must have been tearing up the paddock at home,,,,good horse in his prime,,and with luck could have won a Straddie..
