Reporting in from up in the hills of Indonesia en route to Europe. Ill try and get on when i can and when i have a connection.

Had a bit of a look and i think i cant go past ....opps just had a power blackout.......Flemington Race 8 No 3 Native Soldier $3.20

Not much else in the race and a good price.

Cant get through to Ladbrokes for some reason? I may just have to be there in spirit this week

Good choice Wadda ... was tossing up between Native Soldier & Cliff's Edge and then saw the place odds for Cliff's Edge and that swayed me.  Seemed overs for such a classy galloper.  And Native Soldier has real speed and is getting better.  A good 'Get-On'

Enjoy your trip mate ... we'll be barracking hard here for the Demons tomorrow night.  Most people I've spoken to have tipped us so we're in with more than a chance.

Thanks very much Macca, its well overdue, 4 years since i last ventured anywhere interesting. Pity i cant go to the footy, but i figure that will be just another reason they will keep winning!  Both good horses  there i think also. Lets hope we have a better week than last weeks debacle

Santos was certainly unlucky, kept in a pocket and didn’t see daylight. Wouldn’t completely say he was a certainty beaten as the bolter did finish off the race with a barnstorming run.

And Cliff's Edge couldn't get out after having the perfect run ... not to worry,  the win last night makes up for any losses today.  Still, there's a ways to go today DZ

Apologies for lateness. My best is fighting harada at morpehitville. Race 2 no 1.

Scratched at the barrier BM ... the horse can't take a trick!

With Fighting Harada out I had a bit on 'Brutal' instead ... fought extremely hard to the line and won.  Looks a very likely type leading all the way with the long straight involved.

Casey playing well in the Prelim ... keep the wins coming! ?

Phew, I Am A Star by a wart as the racecaller mentioned. A tad in front now after a little each way on the horse. I got $8 fixed but it blew out to $10, won’t complain though.

Winx....what more can we say.

Winx just way too good for that field ... the Turnball Stakes & Cox Plate awaits but the mighty mare is as good as ever.  Hard to see Winx getting beaten and there is talk that the connections might continue on to the Sydney Autumn.  Why not?

Nice collect for you DZ with 'I Am a Star' ... it was due but the odds were attractive.

Casey need to get a wriggle on

 Cheers Macca.

Loved her last 100m, she was revving it up nicely!

Casey are struggling at the moment Macca. Time to put our coaches hats on, Bombers seem quicker through the middle, maybe we should try Jeffy for a few quick stints in there??

We need to something ... the loser goes home.

Now playing with house money after landing the trifecta with Miss Fabulass.  The 'Frankel' filly looks to have a big future.  A huge turn of foot. 

Wonder if Singo has shouted the bar yet?  He's got a nice horse for the future!

Santos in the Golden Rose. As we’ve said previously, the horse was unlucky last start and some weren’t too happy with the ride Macca. $16 is about the right price, some young guns competing.

Good odds for Ellicazoom DZ ... I'm a fan and the horse is from the Hayes clan as well.  Big fields at Caulfield so the dividends will be up - especially for trifecta punters like me. 

I've included 'Santos' in a Box5 trifecta as well as 'Seabrook' at good odds.  Santos just needs a good possie on the pace and we know how well Seabrook can finish.

Haven’t heard anything about Santos yet. Will try and post the latest if I can. I think he’s a sneaky chance at odds. Having a ball here at the moment, met Allen Jakovich and his brother at a pub a short time ago. Amazing, they had a beer with us and had us in stitches.

Hey hey......reporting in from cloudy Amsterdam. The match is going to be on at 7.30am here so that will be a new one.

Best Bet:

Caulfield Race 8 No 4 Osborne Bulls $6.00

This horse is probably a group horse in the making and this is a test. The bad thing is its a big race with 19 starters, but i think it can win. If not the place is paying 2.70 so each way all day.

Go Dees.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
