Great. Whats your final Tri combo Macca....? If Ace wins, it will be the first High Chaparral to win over 1200. Would be awesome.

Should be a good race Wadda, a first time for everything.

My sis visiting with her kids saved me a trip to Casey. I can enjoy the rest of the days racing.

Thats what sisters are for. Ace High would have brained them if there was another 100m.

Yeah as soon as Ace High was at the tail of the field you knew it probably couldn't win - 'needed the run' by the looks of it.  Global Glamour was run out of a place anyway so I was way off with that trifecta. 

Cashed out on 1 of my 2 live multi's (Eurack,  Bedford & Bye See) but it could be an even better day if 'Don't Give A Damn' salutes.

Thanks for the heads up on 'Eurack' & 'Bye See' fellas ... reinforcing a 'best bet' seems to be a good addition to our system.

Nice work Macca, cheering for 'Don't Give A Damn'. My last leg is 'Dainty Tess'.

@Wadda We Sing  ... yeah dipped out on the Tri in the Expressway.  Got one going at Ascot in the Scenic Blast Stakes (7pm)  and another in the Centenary Vase at Sha Tin tomorrow (5pm)

It's always nice to have a 'saver' but I can see these 3 race multi's/Parlay's being reasonably profitable.  You prefer the 3 race parlay's from memory.  I got one today so it's been a decent day.  And it isn't over yet!

Don't Give A Damn is into 2.40

All the way win, I thought it was paddling there for a while but nothing was gaining ground.

Dainty Tess is needed to salute for my parlay and i also have no.2,4/2,4/F in a tri in the Scenic.

Well both @Demon77 and myself like Dainty Tess to win (best of luck with that multi D77) but I also like 'Volkoff' at odds to feature.  You could work a Tri from that Wadda but don't forget to include 'Caipirinha' ...  Ascot Race 6

Keep this up fellas and we'll have a Demonland marquee at the Melbourne Cup.:)

Yeah I've had a decent day - hopefully you and Wadda can both win late.   Don't Give A Damn could now well be set for the Doncaster Hcp ($3Million)  ... it kicked away in impressive fashion at the top of the straight.

Lol, It's a small tri, Macca mentioned it in an earlier post and he's been very close to the mark with horses at double figure odds.. Just looking for some value in the top 2.

 Cheers Macca, I could have collected already if I'd thrown Bye See in instead of Dainty Tess. I went with Eurack, Don't Give A Damn, Dainty Tess combo.

Either way, it hasn't been too expensive and it's great that some of us have profited out of this.

Thats a good combination. So did you put that on as a multi over the different tracks i guess. So those bets are $5 min...? Its a good way to bet in that case, i have done this also last Spring, so ill have a look at that next time.

All good Wadda, I've had a couple of drinks and the question sounded funny to me(in a good way), didn't mean to sound abrupt. 

Race is on soon, good luck with your tri. Yeah i placed the bet at the Tab just before you nominated Bedford as your best, could have cleaned up today.

Yes the min bet is $5 at the Tab.

With multi's at the TAB we haven't got the option of 'Each-Way' so you have to painstakingly put separate bets on - or,  ring them and ask them to put all the configurations on. 

I've arrived at doing it a different way - I'm banking on getting 2 from 3 winners or 3 from 4 winners so will do a series of separate bets for the win only.

e.g.  we arrive at 3 best bets over the course of the week.  I will then put all 3 on for the win in a multi and any 2 of the 3 for the win only as well (a double)

If we end up with 4 picks or if I want to add another to the 3 I will repeat the same process but have 'saver' bets on 3 of the 4. 

In a nutshell we identified 6 best bets today (in a roundabout way)  ... Eurack (W)  Snitty Kitty (2nd) Bedford (W) Bye See (W) Don't Give A Damn (W) and Dainty Tess (yet to run)  All 6 were 'reinforced by at least one of us other than the person who originally identified the best bet.  

I'm not going to count 'From Within' in the 1st at Rosehill as I thought it was only each way value.

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
