Shot of Irish missing the start made things easier for Junipal

Big time! They're saying hold all tickets on RSN but I think that'll come to nothing. 

Have never seen that before either...

Its kinda amazing it doesnt happen more often, given a few of them rare up when the gates open...

[Biffen 12,331]

First miss of the day.

[Macca 16,173]

I was on Age of Chivalry as well and it was a good tip by RF ... just beaten by a real good horse in Showmanship.

I'm in front with our tips anyway with 2 real chances to come.

Surprise alright by Humidor, bugger. Been fun fellas.

[JV7 2,339]

Hope you all forgive me for the Gunnamatta tip with the Ghodeleine place 

[Gorgoroth 12,325]

As a cigar smoker I usually put a small amount on humidor, didnt. And he cost me a multi and The quaddie

Ended up in front for the day Wadda but what could have been hey?  We started off like a house on fire.  Still managed 4 collects from our tips so no complaints.  My motto is that if you keep getting collects you'll end up in front.  I was once again at work all day so only a bit of audio intermittently. 

Strike Rate 11: 5-2-1

Australian Group Racing

And for those with a keen interest in overseas racing there's a full program of group racing to be held at Churchill Downs tomorrow morning (including the time-honoured Kentucky Derby) 

A couple of other Group 1's are on offer and Sha Tin is back in operation as of tomorrow as well.  The ADATR thread never sleeps.

Kentucky Derby Group 1 2000m $3.6Million 9.00am

Stakes Program: Churchill Downs (7 Stakes Races in all from 4.55am)

Haydock (UK) Sprint Cup Group 1 (12.25am)

Saratogo (USA) Woodward Hcp Group 1 (7.30am)

Sha Tin Sunday (Full Program) ... Race 8 is the feature event

It was a top day i thought Macca, pity you had to work. Hopefully you get to see some good racing over the Spring. Definitely here now. We were pretty unlucky in the latter races, although mine was well beaten.

Im also wondering Macca....if somebody posts their BB as a place, and it runs a place, is that not a correct selection, so therefore its a winner? Thats how i came up with the tally of 3 winners today. Conversely, if someone posts a horse to win and it runs a place then its a place.  I guess it doesnt really matter, just think we have a better strike rate than 5, i think its 6. But it is a bit confusing i guess.

[Macca 16,173]

I'm not sure Wadda .. we got 2 winners and a 2nd last week I believe

And today we got 2 winners and a place pick up (3 correct then?) ... as well as a 2nd & a 3rd from 2 other win picks today

I think it's just the 5 total wins Wadda but by the way,  that's more than decent in terms of turning a profit.

And I don't think I've seen a Saturday race live in nearly 18 months now.  But I'm in the business of making money so long live capatalism!!

Nearly twice as busy because of this damn virus.  Go figure

Anyway,  playing with house money overnight & @ Sha Tin tomorrow ... the last 4 races (Quaddie legs) at Sha Tin tomorrow seem to be good betting races too.  Moreira & Purton feature heavily of course

Yes was an excellent day. Ok, long live capitalism haha....its certainly got a big dent in itself lately, the stazi might be making a comeback soon.

I recommend catching a few replays if you get the chance. Some excellent finishes and Dwanne Dunns barrier headbutt, hope he doesnt get suspended for destruction of VRC property !

That was an excellent place pick. They are often a lot harder than you think and especially at a good price.

Really well done.

Yeah sitting up late watching the Tour de France & a bit of the racing from the UK Wadda so will watch the replays in between. 

Didn't even hear the 'Nature Strip' race ... but I thought the horse might not have been quite ready.  Will be next time you'd imagine (get better odds?) but by gee,  Gytrash is a good horse.  Just keeps winning against good company.

Just got a 12 leg multi on the port game so I’ve finished the night in style. Happy days.

12 legs! 

Did you win enough to purchase the MFC Gorg?

We need someone of good standing to get in there and clean the joint out.  Drain the swamp or whatever!

I had a couple of SGM's on for the Port vs North game too and both fell over by one leg!

Higgins +20 touches, ended on 19 and Duursma +15 touches, ended on 14.

I swear my SGM's are cursed, I'm the master of falling over by one leg!!

[rolling fog 1,146]

Italian GP qualifying is also on right now if that's your scene.

I've got a few quid on Aussie Dan to make it through to Q3.
