There's the verification,  that's right.  Mine went through reasonably quickly but not sure on the actual time.  Plus,  you don't want to miss out on your bonus bet. 

You might want to give them a call to find out. 

I will cheers. Good punting.......is Ormito an official Day at the Races special?!! Might contribute toward the strike rate!

All I know is that it had better win!  I reckon it runs a place at worst Wadda. 

Nomothaj is next up in the 4th ... it has qualified 15th for the Slipper ((16 will run) so Hayes setting it for this 200k 2yo Classic is smart thinking. 

Golden Slipper Order of Entry

And if Ormito wins then we could count the win towards our 'strike-rate' but if it doesn't win,  forget it.  How's that for a bit each-way!

Is our strike rate now:

22: 13.4.1

It might be 23: 13 - 5 - 1 Wadda because we only had 3 best bets in the first week. 

19 times in the finish out of 23 is quite good ... and a 56% win rate is reasonable too. 

 

Nomothaj never looked like it ... had no acceleration

If we can lift that win strike rate up to 70%  -  75% we will be doing very well Wadda.  The concept is well worth persevering with.  

And Nomothaj only cost me a very small outlay (a double with Ormito)

Small field in the next one (Race 5) but they've all got a chance.

Had the double also....small amount. Im still on Ormito, was $6.00 at the TAB when i went down.

Interesting article from racing.com - worth a read. 

Newmarket Handicap showcases training over pedigree

Quote

After watching Redkirk Warrior gallop after soon arriving, champion trainer David Hayes felt that he would be better suited to sprint and mile races in Australia.

Brave Smash has been redeveloped into an elite sprinter in Australia by Darren Weir and his team. It again raises the question of whether he would have had similar results if he had stayed in Japan.

You'd reckon there's some sort of connection.  And I like the international horses competing in Australia.  It gives our racing more exposure and it's a win/win in my opinion.

Ormito looked good in the yard.

Unlucky Geez......Walker caught Williams napping.....Great race.

Lol, been out and about but always find time to jump on and have a sneaky look. Even managed to catch the cup on the phone. Fanatic didn’t give up at all, I thought Ormito had it the last 200m.

Looked like he was going to mow him down......will we take the 2nd in our strike rate Macca?

The race caller didn’t even realise Fanatic railed through on the final turn and bolted two lengths in front. It happened so quick, you could hear his surprise 100m upon straightening.

I didnt see it either, was suddenly 3 lengths in front....clever.

Al Haram looked like it shifted out to give Fanatic the perfect run ... rigged! :ph34r:

Williams did the right thing with Ormito but Fanatic covered less ground - on the fence the whole way. 

Close but no cigar ... money back at least.  My advice was each-way so I hope you blokes got something back.

I only like winners Wadda - doesn't qualify.

Fanatic got the perfect run - the jockey took a chance and it paid off.

It was a really good tip. Run that race another 20 times and it wins everytime. Winner had all the luck.

The jockey on Fanatic (Walker) mentioned that he could see the leader (Al Haram) was 'hanging-off' the whole race.  So the run that Fanatic got wasn't as lucky as we initially thought. 

Did Williams not notice the same thing or was he thinking that Fanatic was going to follow him to the outside? 

Ormito was a good thing beaten,  all things considered.  I was worried about Fanatic of course ... it ran very well to win the Sandown Cup in gutsy fashion. 

Ah well,  it was a terrific race and we got a run for our money.

Yep ... the hindsight quinella - related to 'Punters lament'  ha ha

And McAvaney has been great today ... he's such a proffesional especially when it comes to the horses.  Knows his stuff. 

Edit: His interview with Darren Weir was fascinating. 

Edited by Macca

Here's a replay of last year's Coolmore Classic won by 'Heavens Above'  ... the Coolmore Classic is the only Group 1 event being held next Saturday although there are a host of other Group 2 & 3 races being held at Moonee Valley (Friday evening),  Rosehill & Flemington. 

Here's the latest odds for the race (Shoals running?)

  • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

    The Melbourne Football Club has selected a new coach for the 2026 season appointing Geelong Football Club assistant coach Steven King to the head role.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
