Heavy 10 at Rosehill? Didnt see that coming. :(

Gee another day of a few races with small fields at Morphetville. Although there are a few 8 or 9 horse races which are good i think...

Apologies for lateness of this but my best is Mastering race 9 no 5  Flemington. Should be a class above and form jockey on board helps.

By the by my other best bets were alizee (First time I will have backed it) and fifty stars so good alignment today.

I had a ripper start to my day snagging swift sis in the first (having had a saver bet on it at its last stsrt which it won at 30s). Love it as it gets my stake back so any wind from here are gravy

Gator has picked the winner in races 2,  3,  4 & 5 ... all value picks too

Needless to say,  I'm now playing with house money!

Well done. How do you select the winner tho? There are 4 selections for each race?

Slight correction to Gator's tips ... he missed on race 3.  I think I was counting one of JJ's earlier tips in the mix. 

But if Gator or JJ have a good day I win as well.  I only back their value runners though ... gotta be paying at least 3.50 or better.  JJ also tipped me into Lucky Flipper ($6.50) in race 6 but I missed on Light the Waves ($4.00) in race 7 as the horse opened at $3.00 but drifted.

Good get with Fifty Stars too Wadda ... I threw it into a couple of late multi's but dipped out.  Not to worry though as I had a decent day at the races.

And we might have the heir apparent to Winx with Mystic Journey ... well,  the next dominant horse at least.  A commanding performance in the All Star Mile.  Beat some gun horses yet was 3-wide without cover for much of the race.  Cost $11k as a yearling.

Hong Kong Derby tomorrow with former Australian galloper 'Dark Dream' installed as 2nd favourite.  The winner should come from the top 4 listed runners.  Here is the form for the race

And here is the replay of the Coolmore Classic raced today at Rosehill.

There are a stack of Australian horses racing up at HK with the latest winner of a big event being a good case-in-point.  Ex Australian galloper Furore wins the HK Derby in style with Hugh Bowman on board. 

And with the relaxed quarantine laws there's sure to be more Australian representation as the prize money is fantastic up there yet the local standard often doesn't measure up. 

In fact,  6 of the 14 starters in the HK Derby started their career's in Australia.  Our jockeys are cashing in up there as well.

Past the worst of it thanks Wadda - still a bit proppy but a few more days of rest should do the trick. Starting to feel my age ... no longer bullet-proof,  that's for sure!  3 lots of anti-biotics has knocked me around.

Anyway,  good luck with the multi fellas ... best bets for the place seems quite a sensible move given how tough the fields are tomorrow.   I took Mosh Music for the place & the win in 2 separate multi's.

No worries Macca. Hope the anibiotics did the trick. Im feeling the age thing also with any illness. DZ is the young buck around here! :)

Go the multis!

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
