There's the verification,  that's right.  Mine went through reasonably quickly but not sure on the actual time.  Plus,  you don't want to miss out on your bonus bet. 

You might want to give them a call to find out. 

I will cheers. Good punting.......is Ormito an official Day at the Races special?!! Might contribute toward the strike rate!

All I know is that it had better win!  I reckon it runs a place at worst Wadda. 

Nomothaj is next up in the 4th ... it has qualified 15th for the Slipper ((16 will run) so Hayes setting it for this 200k 2yo Classic is smart thinking. 

Golden Slipper Order of Entry

And if Ormito wins then we could count the win towards our 'strike-rate' but if it doesn't win,  forget it.  How's that for a bit each-way!

Is our strike rate now:

22: 13.4.1

It might be 23: 13 - 5 - 1 Wadda because we only had 3 best bets in the first week. 

19 times in the finish out of 23 is quite good ... and a 56% win rate is reasonable too. 

 

Nomothaj never looked like it ... had no acceleration

If we can lift that win strike rate up to 70%  -  75% we will be doing very well Wadda.  The concept is well worth persevering with.  

And Nomothaj only cost me a very small outlay (a double with Ormito)

Small field in the next one (Race 5) but they've all got a chance.

Had the double also....small amount. Im still on Ormito, was $6.00 at the TAB when i went down.

Interesting article from racing.com - worth a read. 

Newmarket Handicap showcases training over pedigree

Quote

After watching Redkirk Warrior gallop after soon arriving, champion trainer David Hayes felt that he would be better suited to sprint and mile races in Australia.

Brave Smash has been redeveloped into an elite sprinter in Australia by Darren Weir and his team. It again raises the question of whether he would have had similar results if he had stayed in Japan.

You'd reckon there's some sort of connection.  And I like the international horses competing in Australia.  It gives our racing more exposure and it's a win/win in my opinion.

Ormito looked good in the yard.

Unlucky Geez......Walker caught Williams napping.....Great race.

Lol, been out and about but always find time to jump on and have a sneaky look. Even managed to catch the cup on the phone. Fanatic didn’t give up at all, I thought Ormito had it the last 200m.

Looked like he was going to mow him down......will we take the 2nd in our strike rate Macca?

The race caller didn’t even realise Fanatic railed through on the final turn and bolted two lengths in front. It happened so quick, you could hear his surprise 100m upon straightening.

I didnt see it either, was suddenly 3 lengths in front....clever.

Al Haram looked like it shifted out to give Fanatic the perfect run ... rigged! :ph34r:

Williams did the right thing with Ormito but Fanatic covered less ground - on the fence the whole way. 

Close but no cigar ... money back at least.  My advice was each-way so I hope you blokes got something back.

Fanatic got the perfect run - the jockey took a chance and it paid off.

It was a really good tip. Run that race another 20 times and it wins everytime. Winner had all the luck.

The jockey on Fanatic (Walker) mentioned that he could see the leader (Al Haram) was 'hanging-off' the whole race.  So the run that Fanatic got wasn't as lucky as we initially thought. 

Did Williams not notice the same thing or was he thinking that Fanatic was going to follow him to the outside? 

Ormito was a good thing beaten,  all things considered.  I was worried about Fanatic of course ... it ran very well to win the Sandown Cup in gutsy fashion. 

Ah well,  it was a terrific race and we got a run for our money.

Yep ... the hindsight quinella - related to 'Punters lament'  ha ha

And McAvaney has been great today ... he's such a proffesional especially when it comes to the horses.  Knows his stuff. 

Edit: His interview with Darren Weir was fascinating.

Here's a replay of last year's Coolmore Classic won by 'Heavens Above'  ... the Coolmore Classic is the only Group 1 event being held next Saturday although there are a host of other Group 2 & 3 races being held at Moonee Valley (Friday evening),  Rosehill & Flemington. 

Here's the latest odds for the race (Shoals running?)

    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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
