    All 3 winning pays about 200-1

    Pounding winning with the other 2 running a place is showing a dividend of about 25-1 - good value

    I like Coolangatta in the Slipper but there are any number of chances including the 3 placegetters in the Diamond (Daumier, Revolutionary Miss & Jacquinet)

    I'm Thunderstruck (each-way) in the All-Star Mile but it will have to get past Zaaki.  Been set for the race a long way out

    Happy punting folks!

    Lombardo I think is a very very good show, but 1000 is my only concern, 1200 and it’s a Monty. Sword of mercy/Lombardo quinella is a worthy exploration

    Yeah, the 1000m at Flemington is all about the timing of the run (because the run will almost certainly appear) ... reckon Lombardo wins. Mick Price places his horses well

    Just doing straight out win bets tomorrow although a trifecta in the Slipper & All Star Mile ... big pools and the dividends can pay a lot with the right combo

    If Coolangatta wins the Slipper, the filly could end up with a stellar career as a result

    Yeah, didn’t even really pick up speed late. 
     

    Pounding, I think it maybe was run a little hot and a slower speed would have suited.

    BOOM! Montefilia!!!

    Took Mont,  had a bonus on Angel of truth and had those two and VE in the tri.

    Was still a shock to see Verry Elleegant not pick up and run down Montefilia ... not that I had anything riding on it apart from a small outlay trifecta

    And Anamoe far too accomplished in the Guineas ... ridden forward in a small field and ridden like the best horse in the race

    I'm Thunderstruck beaten by the barrier draw ... all credit to the winner though.  Scooted away and too good was Zaaki.  All class

    Streets runs 3rd!  What a grand campaigner ... $720k for the connections! Bonus dollars!

    Only reason I could see thunder that long odds was the barrier.

    Fireburn gets the rails run and streets them in the Slipper ... only went around 1 horse in a race where that is a real advantage. 

    Too good but ridden an absolute treat.  Kudos to the horse & rider

    I should have taken your lead from last week and taken all 3 in a place multi.  The value was there with our 3 this week

    Well done, DZ!

    Yeah got around $8.50 for all three to place and threw it on last minute. Fair value I thought today Macca and all of our picks weren’t far away from winning either.

    Yep, that dividend is a good one, all things considered. If 1 or 2 of the picks are of good each-way value, the place multi comes into play

    I must say, I've had better days at the races but there's always Sha Tin tomorrow!

    They just interviewed the trainer of Shelby Sixtysix (Danny Williams) on 'After the Last' on the racing channel ... what a fantastic story!

    The show is repeated at 9pm tonight unless you've caught hold of it already

    The horse is now going to run in the TJ Smith! 

    By the way, I recouped very well at Sha Tin yesterday (thanks to Moreira & Purton) ... I pulled the right reigns!

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
