Glad you stopped drinking D77..... :)

 

Lol, that’s all I felt like doing after hearing the news about TMac/Viney today.

Get On is on now and I just flicked over, only 15 minutes left though, haven’t spotted the Guru yet.

Edit to the post above @Wadda We Sing

As I was submitting the above reply, Get On showed JJ’s best bets for Morphetville.

Race 2 #5 Sagaab $2.70W Tab

Race 9 #7 Manuel $2.70W Tab

Yeah the 'Get On' crew call James Jordan 'Safari JJ' - suit related? :ph34r:

Anyway,  we've at least got a couple of his tips in advance - I'll be getting on!

They all tipped well last week especially 'Gator' who tipped a heap of winners - he's another who knows his stuff.

I noted their “Best” for the weekend.  

5 horses adds up to around $123 for the multi. Worth a fiver Macca?

Agree with you on Gator, I’ve always enjoyed listening to him.

Rosehill track currently rated as a heavy8 but with no more rain forecast the track might end up being rated as a soft7 improving as the day goes on. 

There's a bit of wind about tomorrow so that might dry the track out a bit as well.  What we do know is that the conditions won't be like last year where the track was rated as a heavy10

No good tonight was the Gator ... 1 winner only.  'Safari JJ' will hopefully provide a few winners for us tomorrow :ph34r:

'Hellbent' salutes in the William Reid Stakes ... very impressive and a terrific ride by Williams.  Weir gets another Group 1.   The First4 paid over 8k yet all the horses involved in the finish were decent.  Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing D77? ha ha

Spanish Reef was also quite imposing in the Sunline Stakes ... destined now for Sydney and could do well up there - worth following at least.

I tuned in to watch the William Reid only out of interest. Good price for Hellbent Macca, sooner or later it was going to produce its customary finishing burst and beat them home. I was surprised with the F4 dividend. Catchy ran a great race, it looked like the horse was going backwards prior to the final turn.

I just finished a phone conversation with my mate, he’s so pumped about tomorrow he won’t be able to sleep.

Barrier 7 for Gai’s 7th Slipper???

I hope it salutes for the sole fact of seeing him on the TV carrying on like a looney. He thinks Sunlight and Written By are special horses and they hope Santos jumps well and settles into the first few or so.

G'day punters. Super tricky day at Rosehill tomorrow, a bit more straight forward at Mornington

Best bet (and my best of the Autumn thus far): Gailo Chop- a ratings special if ever there was one. At 115 a full 6 points (and therefore 6 lengths) clear of the next best. Loves rain affected going with 3 wins and second from 5 starts on the slow and 3 from 3 in the heavy. 6 from 12 at the distance is not too shabby either. Has Zahra on board who is in hot form.

Best value: Peribsen

Best long shot: Ball of Muscle (with apologies to Fragonard) 

And if you want o make some some small change can't go wrong backing Kah in Adelaide for the jockey challenge. not sure what she is tomorrow as they don't put the market up until the morning, but i doubt will be much over 1.50. But she will win easing down. if she is much longer than 1.50 then good value

As stated above, tough day coming up.

Best Bet: Rosehill Race 3 No. 6 Alward. $3.80

Each Way Best: Rosehill R8 No.5 English.

Good luck to Santos today, not often do you find a close mate having a runner in the Slipper. 

Happy punting fellow Demonlanders!

Im sticking with Ace High. The soft ground is a bit of an unknown factor, but he hasnt been beaten past 1800m.

The winner of the first (I Am Excited) ran 1:11.45 so the track may not be all that badly effected by the rain.  The horses weren't cutting the track up that much either.

Apparently it was the wrong tip ... anyway,  you got the win, Wadda. 

I backed Tunes each-way so money back (as it was in the first race)  By the way,  Tunes has had over 100 races!

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
