All 3 winning will return a healthy dividend of $150 (without a boost)

But I'll be playing around with a couple/few at the place (in multi's)

Good luck punters!

Silent pipped by a half head at the post. Our playboy came from nowhere.

Bumping with the 3rd placegetter didn't help

Just audio here but I thought it was home!

Yeah def didn’t help either. And 20out I thought it would hold on too.

 

Well everything has gone to plop for me today, heaps of seconds and thirds but no winners coming onto the last. Hope you boys fared better.

I did ok ... got a 2/3 place parlay up at Rosehill

All got into the finish so 4 collects ... got an early winner at double winnings

Nature Strip & Zaaki won as expected

And Zoushack got up for you Gorg ... good pick!


Geee Blesk came hard at the end tho @Macca, I must admit the thought I had was bet I get bloody pipped at the post again 🤣

I got a trifecta early but wasn’t a huge collect, down on the day, still up from Derby day so still playing with their money so I won’t complain too much… not too much 😂

Traditionally we take a break from giving out best bets after Stakes day. 

I'll still be here from time to time having a few bets ... more so making the odd reference to the feature events that pop up

For instance the Ballarat Cup & Cranbourne Cup next weekend and the Ascot G1's from Perth etc over summer

As for the Spring, I started really well and finished really well ... inbetween not so good.  But I'm in front and that's what matters!

Gorg, DZ and others ... thanks for the contributions!

So a few days after Jamie Kah wins her day in the Supreme Court, Racing Victoria decides to make Jamie ineligible to win the Jockey Premiership

Never mind that Jamie has served a 3 month disqualification and never once complained  It's a poor move by RV in my opinion.  Petulent & spiteful with no need

Jamie would get much better treatment in NSW ... the champion jockey could take her talents to the Northern beaches and who could blame her? 

It's any wonder that NSW & Sydney racing is fast becoming the No.1 destination in Australia

Yeah that was strange and tbh petty. It wasn’t like she cheated at the races or something similar.

3 months off which included a huge loss of earnings amounting to hundreds of 1000's was punishment enough

And I can't back a winner today Gorg ... no good!

Same, couldn’t pick any winners, [censored] day.

Jamie Kah is back in style!

Wins the Pakenham Cup on Smokin' Romans A superb ride.  All class

I was on Mimi's Award however I picked up a nice 2/3 win parlay earlier in the day

I had Canasta, Smokin Romans and Under my Spell in my black book, took a punt on all and that’s all I was going to do, of course under my spell salutes and away I went 😃

 

Werribee cup today and Kah should be in the mix with Starcaster.

How bloody close was the finish in the Werribee cup!

I thought that Starcaster got pipped at the line watching live.


Yes,  just a bob of the head in it

Dark Dream was a good thing beaten as it was held up for a run twice ... might be worth following up on in the open handicaps (as well as the winner)

Dakar rally is often worth a look at ... in Saudi Arabia this year.

1 hour highlights program on every day on SBS at 5pm.  They are just on half way through the rally and there has been the usual high drama on a daily basis

Sand dune after sand dune for hundreds of kilometres, I don't know how they can endure it all!

The Autumn carnival is almost upon us ... at Caulfield this Wednesday we get to see the 2 Blue Diamond Preview's as well as a couple of listed races.  All the races carry Saturday-like prizemoney

Also on Wednesday the Australia Day Cup will be held at Warwick Farm

First Group 1 of the Autumn Carnival coming up on Saturday.  Looks a good race too

WFA over the 1400m so the barriers could be all-important for the fancied runners

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
