Agree, I watched that race live. Even copped the hit that pushed it wider at the 400.

I too took the odds lst night at 5.50

The big issue is if the track is worse than a Soft5 or if it rains on the day

But as previously stated I'm using bonus bets so the risk is diminished (somewhat!)

Caulfield Race 7, number 5 Sword of Mercy $5.50

I got on last night ... again, the odds are quite enticing for what I regard as being a very good sprinter

Sword of Mercy was only a length off winning an Oakleigh Plate

Agree. Those odds I thought were overs. I put the two and Beau Rossa in a multi paying $47.42 which I thought was too nice to turn down ?

Good luck with that Gorg

Randwick now a Good4 with only a light amount of rain forecast (0 - 1mm)

I've got our 2 (Hungry Heart & Sword of Mercy) in a double & Beau Rossa & Steinem (Morp R7) in another double.  The latter 2 should just win!

Yeah agree the second double should get the chocolates

Beau Rossa just couldn’t get the nose in front. Got boxed in a little as the turn came. Still rate it, think it will win many more. 1600 might be a bit far, 1400 might be best bet.

Nigh on perfect ride on Hungry Heart. Once it hit the front it didn’t looked troubled.

I loaded up on the $6 in the end!

Gotta love those bonus bets when they deliver the goods

Got Sword of Mercy going in the double so fingers crossed

Beau Rossa unlucky ... from the audio coverage it got out late and that was costly.  In front before and after the line?

Yeah got stuck, took a while to get out but once out it got to the other horse but couldn’t pass it. Don’t think it actually got past it.

 

Prague ran well considering it didn’t jump well but September Run was poor.


Beau Rossa is in the mix for the Stradbroke Handicap at $51, used the $10 bonus bet for it. So even if it doesn’t run, it’s not a big loss

Well all in all not a great day, down around $20 if I include all my bonus bets (got 7 for the day) but if the couple that were photos went my way then it’s a nice profitable day. (Thought Paul’s regret was going to get the chocolates!) The fun and enjoyment of racing. 
Might have to dial it back in the next week or two as I’ve got new parts for my bow I need to collect next Saturday which is going to kill the bank balance 
 

Hope you did well.

Yeah we can bring the best bet up again in the Spring although I'm still all in with regards to the Brisbane & Adelaide carnivals (as well as the overseas Group racing)

The racing never stops as far as I'm concerned (with a high interest in the Group racing ... for instance, Eduardo & Nature Strip are both running in the Doomben 10,000)

But the overseas racing in our off-season is fantastic.  And the Racing channel & Sky often cover the big races

I've got the racing right up there with the MFC, the Aussies in Test cricket & the NFL

I loved Racing as a teenager into early 20’s got away from It mostly until a few years ago but it’s been the last 12-18 months I’m re-loving it. 
I’ll keep going each Saturday just dial it back a smidgen due to the costs of the parts for my Bow.

I’ll still throw up a best/value bet as I really enjoy doing those with you.

The value/each-way tip can garner more interest ... mainly because there are a number of ways of including the pick in all sorts of different bets

For instance, I also had Sword of Mercy in a place multi with Beau Rossa (win) along with 'Good and Proper' & 'Finance Tycoon' ... ironically it was Beau Rossa where I missed.  Not to worry though, that's racing!

And if a value tip runs a place only one can get money back with certain betting agencies

A couple of weeks ago I couldn't find a value tip so went with 'Agreeable' (it won) but to get a return it's win only as the place dividend was too low ... including a shortie like that in an exotic bet doesn't add a lot of value either

But I had a more than decent day yesterday so no complaints

Each-Way Best (Saturday)

Randwick R7 No.10 Savatiano 8.00/2.40

Drawn ideally to get into a good position just off the speed.  Then it's up to Hugh Bowman

Good luck today Macca! Hopefully we get some good winners and a Dees victory to end the day!

Yeah, you too Gorg along with anyone else here having a dabble!

Got 'Ahead Start' & 'Mr Tee Kay' up early so a good start at least! 

And if all goes well tonight as well (as well as Richmond having a bit of an off night) we might just salute. 

The line is a bit skinny but it's nice to know that the bookies are giving us a bit of kudos!

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
