Best bet Saturday.

Randwick Race 5 No.6 Mazu $4 (W)

So the 3 picks combined in a multi win bet is showing a dividend of about 100-1  

And any of the 3 doubles is offering at least 18-1

The 3 picks in a place multi adds up to about 6-1 (with a boost) 

Value all round

For those who look to the colours for luck, we've got the Red & Blue covered (Mazu & Anamoe) and for good measure we've got the Green & Gold covered (Intellective)

Good luck punters

Magic Max has traveled from Adelaide to run at Caulfield today. Race 6 Number 7 . Dual Acceptors have a high winning record when they are scratched to run interstate and the name is steaming at me. I know the real magic Max is still in Adelaide to watch the Grand Final.

That is going to be one hell of a race, that field is exceptional 

The money has come for Anamoe ... into 4.20 now but the 3yo is going to have to bring its absolute best (I'm happy with the $6 I got)

What a brave ride.

Well it was but we know that Think it Over isn't great in really heavy going so the trainer & jockey might have thought that they had nothing to lose by going down the extreme  outside ... it just took off left!

But it caught everyone out and was a brilliant plan anyway ... $2.3Million to the connections and you can bet that Nash Rawiller will get a decent 'sling' haha

Yep ... if you mention a horse in that way you've always got to have something on it 

Even just 10 @ 50-1 is all it would have taken

I'm kicking myself!

Last big day at Randwick is where we've traditionally finished up on the best bets for the Autumn ... couple of big races too with the 'All Aged' & the 'Champagne St'

Hopefully we can finish off with 4 winners!!

You never know!

2 best bets in so far and the place multi is already starting to show a bit of value (the win multi as well of course)

There is some real value around at Sydney & Melbourne ... just a matter of getting a few collects so as to at least break even

Caulfield Race 7 No.12 Grandslam 

$6.5 (W) & $2.5 (P)

Good luck and have a Safe and Happy Easter everyone.

 

Same to you, DZ.  Happy Easter! 

And I had Grandslam picked out as well ... J Kah just needs to get the horse into a nice position in the running (with cover) ... possibly 5th or 6th one-out from the fence (?)

Point Nepean is fav but last start it was 8kg lighter and reckon there is good value in this horse.

Seems a real progressive type Gorg ... drawn nicely for a good run on the speed.  Can stalk 'Point Nepean' with a 3.5kg advantage in the weights (and over 2400m, that's significant)

5.5kg unless there has been a change? PN is listed at 59.5 WS at 54

Exactly how I hope it pans out Macca. If it gets there without too much work early from the wide we should be happy and then it is every chance. 
And is this the first time we’re racing here in Vic on Good Friday?

Yeah I'd say so ... vaguely remember betting at Ascot (WA) previously on GF

Including Sale today of course with $500k 'Country Discovery' A more than decent field too ... an exotic bet or a same race multi beckons!

Thoughts?  @Gorgoroth@Mr Steve@Dee Zephyr

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    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
