Ha ha! They could have told us that on Thursday morning! There's always another race Gorg but North Pacific now has 1 less horse to get past (it gets back but J-Mac is on board

Our 4 picks are paying about 12-1 for the place multi so that's worth a small wager

You may as well have another go as well Gorg (with the added value of the place multi coming together) Here's mine Caulfield R7 No.5 Anamoe 7.50/2.30 More so for the place multi but if they go too fast up front, Anamoe can swoop and win)

The 'Get On' racing hour is on Channel 78 tonight at 9.45pm If you haven't seen the show before it's a bit of fun with lots of tips ... Richo hosts with Hutchy as the main tipster (along with Brent Zarafa) And the Australian Group Racing 'Bible' is back on line (finally) See below Australian Group Racing (once on the site click on any individual Group race for more details, prizemoney, previous winners and loads more info)

Huge day at Caulfield coming up on Saturday with the Blue Diamond, Futurity Stakes & the Oakleigh Plate. Crack fields throughout the day. 3 Group races up at Rosehill to complement the day The ADATR's crew have already earmarked Hang Man (R1 No.6 Caulfield) & North Pacific (R7 No.3 Rosehill) as potential winners so good luck punters! Feel free to post up a best bet fellow 'landers - the more the merrier (unless we lose!) The 3 main feature races are still available (n.b. only one best bet per race so as to keep things easier to manage) Oh, and the thread is up to 200 pages which is no mean feat! Caulfield - Fields, Form & Odds Rosehill - Fields, Form & Odds

Yeah no worries, I've got one in mind too! But we should wait for the others first Gorg ... late tomorrow we'll know who's in

I reckon the horse is very good value @8.50 (Laddies) Gorg ... measures up to Defribulate (dead heat last start) according to a couple of the racing pundets and is 3 or 4 times the value. Extra furlong might suit too! DZ, JV7, Wadda and 1 or 2 others could come in later but the place multi is starting to measure up (although we don't want another scratching in the 'Hang Man' race (R1)

Fair enough Gorg ... I probably overreacted anyway. All good The Futurity Stakes is a beauty as you indicated ... Ole Kirk & Arcadia Queen are big chances as well as Behemoth & Probabeel It's a trifecta race for me as I'm a big fan of those 4 in particular plus 'Streets' & Crosshaven could get good runs and get into the finish. I'll post up the preview later as the Oakleigh Plate & the Blue Diamond are of high interest as well (Ollie chose Anamoe over Ingratiating)

You should have said that then as I saw it as you betting against me ? So far I've had 6 different people stomp all over my best bet ... one 'individual' decided to make my pick his 'lay' of the day! (Twice) Both my choices won by the way but no apology was forthcoming!

And I'm bound to like something else in the race that you pick. If we're going to bet against each other there is no point in having a best bet Probably better to leave it unsaid ?

Best Bet (Saturday) Rosehill R7 No.3 North Pacific 5.50/1.95

Replays from the weekend

David Hayes is starting to train some winners up at Hong Kong again 2 winners so far today including a 25-1 shot in race 4. And Zac hasn't been able to take advantage today in the absence of Moreira (out suspended?)

Nature Strip is a 1000m horse which can sometimes run well at 1200m (often gets caught out over racing?) Kah will be riding the horse from here on in so she may have found the answer to the horse in terms of rating the horse ... it's what Jamie does so we may be seeing the new Nature Strip Looked the winner a long way out but your choice (September Run) is the one to follow ... flew past Bivouac which is no mean feat Colette wins the Apollo St. in fine fashion. Very impressive Verry Elleegant the eye-catcher late. Needs further than 1400m

And is Nature Strip back in business? After that win you'd reckon so Jamie Kah does it again! Quick time too ... 00:56.91 for the 1000m The two 3yo's ran very well too (September Run & Swats That) Newmarket Hcp for those 2 (at the lightweights) Bivouac never a factor - not his day but probably needs 1200m

Tagaloa is back in business! Nice positive ride by Luke Currie too The punters didn't want it but it ran 01:21.63 for the 1400m. That's slick! Australian Guineas over the 1600m looks ideal for the colt now. And hopefully it races on into the Spring

Yep ... gave Frost Flowers another go but she wasn't up to it unfortunately. Had every chance though Ingratiating ran well again and is worth following. Enthaar is still the one? Anamoe the smoky? You'd imagine it's those 3 for the Diamond but there might be 1 or 2 others Ollie has Ingratiating & Anamoe as line ball now (after race interview) Blinkers & carrying 59kgs today is changing his mind

Was Quantum Mechanic one of 'em Gorg? I was on straight out with the Laddies 'double dividend' Early winners are just Gold especially with the bonus! I wonder what Damien & Craig make of Jamie Kah's success? Tony McEvoy was none too happy when Jamie left S.A. for greener pastures Exceptionally good decision made by the elite hoop as far as I'm concerned

Wilson possibly moving? I thought he was firmly entrenched at Seattle. We've seen Goff & Stafford move so you never know The chat about Rodgers has dissapated but both QB's have sounded-off which disappoints me somewhat. Behind closed doors is where the chatter should stay And apparently the Colts offered just 2 x 2nd rounders for Wentz and that's the best offer they've had (according to Ron Jaworski) Wentz looked like the next big thing until his injuries ... now looks a shadow but I'd like to see him have a clear run at it before drawing a line

I was on Rock the Ring and backed Entrapped at its last start (ugh) ... had good Tassie form But that win goes down to the jockey again. Jamie Kah is a gun and she does it so effortlessly. Maybe like Bowman?

I just quoted myself in typical self-indulgent fashion! But winners are grinners Gorg especially with the double winnings at Laddies

And Starcaster duly wins ridden a treat by Jamie Kah. That kicks off the weekend's racing on a good note!

Was already on it Gorg I reckon our 2 picks will both go close so the place multi is on the cards (maybe with 1 or 2 others)

We got that one up in the Railway St. at good odds ... another ADATR Blackbooker

Had that down race down as one for the exotics Gorg as there's some value there with the right combo saluting I'm with Jamie Kah for a lot of the races on Saturday ... and she's riding Starcaster at the Valley tomorrow night (R4 No.7) But that race (the listed Torney Night Cup) has attracted a small but very competitive field. Exotics?
