A Day at the Races

Yes!

I had a very busy weekend (but not a fruitful one on the punt!) but will post up some replays soon enough

Haven't seen any of the Sydney or Melbourne races yet but there were some obvious highlights amongst the 5 x Group 1's that were held

Yeah I didn’t have a great one, wiped my face but lost a small amount on the AFL. Would have done quite well if Steele kicked the ball a second before the siren, not one second after ??

Woke up this morning and saw that Sportsbet had paid out on my multi. They have awarded 25disposals to Jack Steele! Great start to the day!

Best Bet

Caulfield R2 No.4 Agreeable $3.30 (Win)

[Macca 16,173]

Terrific days racing coming up ... they've got a good track up in Sydney with lots of Group racing whilst the fields at Caulfield are quite strong

Don't mind 'Personal' in the Vinery and 'Angel of Truth' in the Tancred

Good luck punters

 

[Macca 16,173]

Hang Man wins again and beats a good field ... didn't have it included but it ran past a decent horse in Persan

The connections would now have to be eyeing off a few of the bigger races in the spring.  There might even be a race up in Sydney over the next few weeks that suits

And Hungry Heart won the Vinery in fine style.  Good horse to follow going forward

Sir Dragonet wins the Tancred!  Very impressive ... looked a class above over the 2400

I was torn between hangman and le don and went le don. Also did that on an earlier race that got up with diamond second. 
 

Rodeo saluted on the last for me, cracking race to watch

Just watched Beau Rossa.... wow, just wow

Watched the replay ... looks a ripper and ran good time too

I know it was only a BM64 or there about but with that turn of speed it will rise the ranks and do well, how high it goes, that’s the question. One to def watch for me.

Mask of Zorro ran another good race yesterday too.

[Gorgoroth 12,308]

Sydney showing a heavy 9 at the moment, but weather looks ok Fri and Sat so hope it firms up a fair bit.

Best Bet

Randwick R9 No.1 Mugatoo 4.60/1.80

Let’s see if Jamie can dominate Randwick 

Race 10, #2 Macroura $6/2.25

[Gorgoroth 12,308]

In the 6th at Randwick Anamoe is fav, but lightsaber at $9.50 I believe is good value for a exacta/tri etc

[Gorgoroth 12,308]

Started the day of on fire, then went cold real quick. Both our choices didn’t salute but that’s racing. Hope you had a good day.

Similar story Gorg

Got Missile Mantra & Duais up early then went cold.  Got a couple of collects out of Ascot late but overall down a fraction

Will watch the replays soon enough but Anamoe must have been impressive in the Sires Produce

Nature Strip did his thing,  Explosive Jack might be a cups horse & Jamie Kah got the best out of Cascadian in the Doncaster by the sounds of it

Anamoe killed it. Cascadian looked very good too. 
 

I was on the same two as you, also got Kiku and paulele early on. 
 

I flirted between Nature strip and Biovac and went the latter... seems every time I’m on NS it loses and when I go against it it bloody wins. ?

Had a photo with Grand promenade which ran quite well. Just couldn’t get there.

I'm floating between exactas & win bets at the moment ... I do like the idea of having 2 or 3 runners as options for winning but just got to pick the right races

Anyway,  the Pies, Eagles & Tigers all losing softens the blow ... with punting it's always about the overall!!

Because of the above,  if we win today,  we create a buffer that we can maintain (at least in the first half of the season)  Must win!

1-39 Demons is my pick,  Freo the same?

$1.80 fav this sat.

It’s listed for the Stradbroke handicap in Jun at $51 against a much better field. But I’m sorely tempted to take the gamble it runs and put $10 on it.

That’s a good race. 
 

Sydney is already a soft 5 with rain expected Friday and Saturday. 
hope it doesn’t end up a heavy track. Hate betting on Heavy tracks.

Hungry Heart is a true stayer with a terrific finishing burst ... over the odds in my view

The others either may not get the distance or are unproven in Australia

Scroll up to the replay of the Vinery Stud Stakes and let me know what you think Gorg

I will be most surprised if it doesn't get into the finish although the horse does like good conditions and there is a bit of rain forecast

I've taken the early odds with some bonus bets

Agree, I watched that race live. Even copped the hit that pushed it wider at the 400.

I too took the odds lst night at 5.50
