    Hasta ran ok for 3rd in the Geelong Cup ... slick time for the race though.  Tralee might go alright in the Cup.  Hit the line well

    At $160k for 12th it's well worth just getting a runner in the big race.  Anyway, the connections picked up a cool $240k for winning the Geelong Cup

    Well done Gorg!

    I got on and a good way to end the day ... the horse fought well to the line.  Tough win!

    Who do you guys like?

    I agree on Lombardo ... a horse on it's way up.  Quinella with Savatoxl?

    On RSN this morning the track watcher mentioned Rambeau ($26) as one that impressed (Friday Moonee Valley) Race 1 No.4

    Gator's 2/3 Parlay involves 3 races at Randwick (Saturday)

    R6 No.9 Ma and Pa

    R9 No.6 Entriviere

    R10 No.9 Gravina

    About 45-1 for the 3

    Gator, Mick Sharkie & Gareth Hall on RSN Spring Carnival radio tonight from 5pm (Valley races)

    This meeting last year they were on and got on the plonk!  A little unhinged as a consequence!!

    Jonker was $10 yesterday ... looked the winner a long way from home but Bella nearly pinched the win

    Savatoxl & Lombardo just couldn't keep up ... old boy Streets ran on well

    I have Bella in my F4, I tossed up between Joneker and Sneaky 5, not that it mattered as Lombardo and Sav got nowhere near it.

    In those sprints at the Valley if a horse can win the start, hold it's ground and then kick, it often wins (gotta be a good horse to start with though)

    Jonker has now won $2.1Million and it's run some very quick times over the journey.  I had it included in a trifecta but didn't have Bella

    That's racing (at the Valley!)

    Wow, big news Macca…huge blow for connections.

    Buffalo River’s scratching in the Crystal Mile leaves Elephant very short now. Would have loved to hear Matt Hill get creative calling Elephant, Buffalo and Rhinoceros over the line as the first 3.

    10's of $Millions lost on Zaaki in the all-ins (doubles on the big races as well)

    I find it a little questionable for it to happen on the day (and I'm not talking through my hip pocket)

    Busy day myself but managed to listen in on all the drama surrounding the protest in the Cox Plate

  • Quote

    Re the protest in the Cox Plate

    Protest being dismissed was the right decision but the interference did stop Anamoe's run to a degree. I just don't believe the interference was all that severe

    We see a lot of brushing and slight bumps and to me that's just part of racing

    Upholding the protest would have suited me as I had Anamoe going in a few bets (including a decent win bet)

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
