Fair bit of value already with Master of Wine & Miami Bound.  And to be honest I'd rather trust the collective knowledge of the ADATR crew than my own thoughts. 

Boxing 6 with a small outlay can still pay a decent dividend especially with a F4.  I first struck upon the idea when you made mention of a collect in the Caulfield Cup (?) a couple of years ago.  Think it was a Box 6 F4 IIRC.

Interesting, never done that with 6 runners.

Yep Macca, that was a fluke and a half but that’s what you’re looking for in Lady Luck. 

6 is a good number and like you said it doesn’t have to be a huge outlay.

Fierce Impact or Kings Will Dream for mine in the Makybe... Unsure which way to lean at this stage ?

Had 'em both in mind JV,  don't worry!

And putting together an exotic combo is not necessarily for my benefit.  Anyone can use the picks.

I'm a great believer in team and with regards to the punt, I'm not sure the team aspect has been explored properly.  Just my view of course.

For instance,  I'm liking the extra best bets that we currently have this Spring.  The large multi is an option especially for a small outlay but I also like to pluck the eyes out of the picks for straight wins,  double's or even a treble. 

Got 4 collects last week out of the 6 picks and turned a profit.  And all our choices this week look like standouts to me.

Hi All,

I think I spruiked My Gold Bracelet on here and it came 3rd after a wide run last start.In the Price/Kent Jnr stable from NZ looking for Black Type Glory.

It's at 10-1 fixed in race 4. Only 4-1 on the tote.

I expect Oliver to ride a double in races 3 and 4.

But my roughie this week is in Race 1 at HQ.  Roland Garros .

They are predicting 20-30 mls of rain and Roland Garros has proven Heavy track form.

Currently about 26-1 and definitely worth a bob each way to get you off to a flyer.

Happy Punting and good luck.

If you barrack for the MFC God knows you deserve it.

...And 'Rolling Fog'

Interested in posters thoughts with regards to the Makybe Diva Group1

I've got Master of Wine as my best bet (place only) but I'm thinking of taking out a box Tri or Box F4.

As much as it's often best to leave the best bet races alone I don't want to curtail any conversations on a big Group 1.

I do fancy Master of Wine but the exotics could pay a bit on the race.

So feel free to proffer up your choice

The event is Race 7 and the field,  form & odds in a post above (near the top of the page)

I like Fierce Impact now ....5 from 5 placings in the soft, have to throw it in...

Ok so we've got Miami Bound,  Master of Wine,  Fierce Impact,  Kings Will Dream and I'll throw in Russian Camelot & Warning (for a bit of value. 

4,  7,  9,  10,  13 & 16

Betting has closed! 

Good luck today to all the punters out there and lets hope the ADATR choices come through with the goods!

Anyone give ABN (Flem R9 No.2) a chance? The fellas at work are hoping for some luck. I dare say a few of them if not all will be calling in sick on Monday if she wins. In excess of 100-1 earlier in the week. Good luck to them.

Its sectional ratings are the 2nd best in the race, however most of those were recorded on the good. Being out of Night of Thunder you would think the rain affected ground would suit. Certainly has come in. Wide open race.

Apologies a few technical issues at Chateau Fog this morning. Here's a few thoughts for this afternoon at headquarters and Rosehill:

(I've tried to go with picks that haven't been posted already, but apologies if I'm doubling up anywhere)

Best Bets:
Flemington
Race 5, No. 7 - Toffee Tongue - it's a wide field and I also like Shot of Irish and Aktau in this race, Toffee Tongue EW I think
Race 7, No. 4 - Fierce Impact - again, another wide field and I also like the look of Russian Camelot and Master of Wine, EW again I think...

Rosehill
Race 5, no. 7 - Mo'unga
Race 6, No. 1 - Farnan
Race 7, No. 5 - Funstar

Best Value:
Flemington

    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

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
