Put my Bonus $25 on Chain Of lighting. Thank you Ladbrokes.

$5 for chain was much more than I expected, happily took that.

 

Is Ladbrokes a decent site?

I’ve been with Sportsbet and I like the bonus bets for 2nd, 3rd etc (which I think most sites do?) but outside that they have stopped pretty much everything else.

We're going to see a lot of Giga Kick as it's a 3yo gelding  The Coolmore? Rotal Ascot? The TJ Smith? 

Sky is the limit and it's unbeaten

Commanding performance and it had been running some very slick times in 1100m races ... so the form was there

Ended up getting the quinella x 150% so here's your virtual 🍺 @Mr Steve

With all the offers from BetR I think the rest will pick up there game. Lads are also offering a 100% deposit match at the moment. Up to $100. What I like most about Lads is that I can deposit at the local Newsagent, no explaining the spend on the credit card to the wife. They also gave me a $50 bet which I stuck on No Compromise .

Well I went on Benaud and I have no idea what they were doing? It seemed to want to go multiple times and the jockey kept pulling it back and then it sat at the end the whole race…

Baffling.


Durston only got into the Caulfield Cup field today but will now probably be 3rd or 4th favourite for the Melb Cup! 

Was 51.5kgs but might carry 54kgs after a penalty?  Impressive win all the same and strong at the finish of a mile and a half

Deauville Legend & Loft are the 2 though with their overseas form

 

Michael 'Dee' ... there was the omen!

Big 2 days at the Valley!

Who do you fancy in the Manikato & Cox Plate?

Exotic for me in the sprint and I'm on at 20-1 with Anamoe in the Plate.  Maybe a trifecta in that race as well

Haven’t looked much but Anamoe should win. 
As a roughy I might take Mr Brightside

I'm liking the two down the bottom for the Manikato Macca, Best Of Bordeaux and Coolangatta.

I'm always fascinated when an international or former now in El Bodegon enters the Cox plate. Anamoe is the best horse in the country and I always like seeing the best salute. 

Good luck fellas.

Will hopefully be watching each race tomorrow. Not a big fan of moonee Valley in general, but no idea how much rain will happen between now and race 1 let alone the plate.

Yes, good luck to all!

Had a saver on El Bodegon (just in case) ... the 3yo colt has been racing well against elite company in Europe and is the real danger in the race

Anamoe is in the right gate though and is the one to beat, DZ

Best of Bordeaux tonight is a real chance as is Coolangatta (drawn perfectly again)

Eleven Eleven & Roch 'N' Horse can both run bold races as well (at the odds) 


I believe Anamoe has now won the most Group 1s for a Godolphin horse. Cracking race i thought, the champ wins and I’m Thunderstruck and El Bodegon were huge.

Thunderstruck once again was on the charge but just 10 meters too late

Been working all day but kept tabs

Anamoe is a gun and Bella must have been good (by the call) Thunder could do well overseas as well as Anamoe.

But with the money on offer here it's more about prestige if travelling

Replays on the agenda tonight as I recorded the whole ch7 coverage!!

Bella Nipotina was never going to lose, I had a fair day, missed by a nostril on either oar and decided not to use a bonus bet on my blackbooked horse (like to use some bonus bets on roughies)in promise of success…. And it ran a cracking race.

Always the way

I had a good day with the Anamoe collect (courtesy of Rupert/Betr) but got real lucky on an exacta payout where I typed in the wrong/right number for 2nd

Wonders will never cease but I'll take the 4 Avacado's!! (8 pineapples) ... I messaged  out to the various acquaintances and a mate came back with a 2k payout story when he thought he'd only won 200 ... typed in 100 instead of 10 on the layout and didn't realise (Singapore, months ago)

You need luck in this game, Gorg

Derby Day next Sat ... can't wait!!

But in the meantime, Sale Cup tomorrow and the Bendigo Cup ($500k) Wednesday ... exotics? Good money for the bush!

Can’t see anything less than heavy 8 tomorrow, hopefully a soft 6/7 for the cup, but doubt that too.

First time I’ll have to work Melb Cup since the late 90s, will be weird but hopefully will watch the races on my phone/pc

And I'm not working Tuesday when I thought I might have been!

With this weather we're likely to see some highly fancied runners flounder with at least a few roughies or value runners saluting

Had a few win bets but my plan is wide exacta's with an accent on value

I like 'Jacquinot' in the Coolmore, 'Yearning' each way in the Empire Rose and I'm sticking with Mr Maestro in the Derby (despite the wide barrier)

Mug punter here - any tips for the cup?

To be honest mate, the cup is always hard as it’s a distance that’s not seen very often, then factor in what could happen with weather and then which parts of the track may have cut up. The fav has never ran the distance, never won or placed on a soft track (soft 6 at the min). Think next best is $10.  Vow and declare is $31and it won this race 3 years ago, the Adelaide cup winner is $51

Also with such a large field it makes it harder again. Go with what pops out to you, what horse you think looks good in the mounting yard or what colours 😅

I like Lunar Flare, Smoking Roman’s and Vow and Declare are also big chances, know nothing about the fav from England I think 🤔 

so long answer no, short answer nup. 😂

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
