Best Bet: Saturday Murray Bridge Race 6 No 4 Lakhani Rose $4.80 (W)

Theres only 1 real solution Macca....... Move Xmas into February ! Yep Santa has to take a back seat this year, as all sports everywhere attempt to finish their seasons. Run the Cox Plate on Xmas day and the Melbourne Cup on New Years Day ! Finish the Spring Carnival when everyone is on holidays! Perfect.

Ok, yes i have a few small multis on. Mixed with a few Bendigo runners.... Good luck indeed.

hahaha....yes i would have mate, all invited and a bank to punt with ! Oh well, we probably cant go anyway and i cant drink that much champagne !!

Yeah i hear ya Macca & thanks...was stiff alright ! Haha I got on a roll early and it just kept going. I had several other multis including ours, but if i took a 4 leg multi i still lost on 1 leg and ditto 3 leg multis. Despite having 7 or 8 selections that got up, i didnt get a return. The cash out before the King of Leogrance leg was 357. I was very tempted to cash out, then reinvest, but the odds had come in on the remaining legs, so i thought id let it ride and make another decision after the 5th leg. Sadly that was not to be. I only got annoyed when the remaining legs saluted haha....but hey i only dropped 30 on the day and saw some terrific races, so its all good. I still think its the way to go, mainly because you lose less than if you bet on each individual horse. Also if you have a live multi rolling, you tend to bet less on the races upcoming i think. If i went the other way on those 7 selections and picked them individually, i would have outlayed say 70 (10 each) and only returned 190, for a combined win of 130, so no big deal. I prefer to live on the edge ! Its more fun although my furniture might not agree ! The trick i reckon, is to pick the right races, skip a few....you dont have to get them in a row. I have a tendency to also go for races with less runners, when possible. I notice there are a lot of races on internationally today, seems its coming back. Its a fairly good social distance sport i guess. Lets hope cricket is the same ! Good luck at Sha Tin. Enter the Dragon !

Yep im on also....come on Santa.

I see Harpo Marx going around at Race 2 @ Rosehill....surely a Day at the Races special ! EDIT: 9th

I was originally going to go Ranier, but the odds on last weeks pick were hard to go past. What a pity it didnt get a start. (follow) OK, well we will do our best to put up a few comments as the day goes along. Have a good day.

Ok, looks like my selection is scratched. My replacement is Rosehill Race 6 No 3 Ranier $5.50 (W) @Macca @Dee Zephyr

Best Bets: Flemington Race 4 No.9 Sikorsky $4.20 (W) Morphettville Race 8 No.1 Santa Ana Lane $2.45 (Plc) Morphetville Race 9 Lakhani Rose $13.00 (W) This weeks multi for the 3 picks 133/1 approx. Go Hard Team !

Best Bet: Morphetville Race 9 Lakhani Rose (w) $13.00

I knowwwww.....i agonized over it and ended up going with Hang Man ! Apparently SoSiBon has been gelded, the ultimate gear change and thats its second win since. Was there a change of stable also??

Well now, that was a [censored] of a day ! But..did we see a potential Melbourne Cup winner go around at Morphettville? The run of Russian Camelot after being 3 wide at the back of the field the entire trip, produced a withering run for the final 200m over 2500m at only its 5th start, with what was not really an ideal preparation. He just lawn mowered, the (unbeaten at Morphettville) Dalasan who hit the front, over the final 100m. Hes now pretty much equal favourite now with Master of Wine and Surprise Baby on the markets i saw for the Melbourne Cup, at around 12-15/1. I thought a bit of rain overnight was a little bit more than was expected and perhaps didnt help the chances of some of the picks today. I must say though that the run by the 4yo mare Lakhani Rose from barrier 17 out of 16 barriers was an absolute barnstormer, just missing by a nose on the line ! At only her 10th start, just might pay to follow her. Kayla Crowther and DR Jolly had a few successful combinations on the day and seem to be a good team. Cant really shed any light on Ballarat meeting tomorrow, and wont be leaving the house to look over the fence either ! Frighteningly cold here and weve had a fair bit of rain. The rain guage overflowed last week and i havent ventured out the back paddock to reset it yet. Dont forget the PICK 7 is on again for the meeting. A free shot at 20K. I think the winning punter today only had 3 or 4 wins and a few placings, so you never know ! Enter here: https://pick7.racing.com/ .....now im going back to my movie. Night folks.

Best Bets: Randwick Race 2 No.7 Kukeracha (W) $5 Caulfield Race 4 No.3 Something Silver (W) $6 Morphettville Race 9 No 6 Lakhani Rose (W) $7.50 Going for the record this week folks, 225/1 for your cup of coffee. Good luck team !

Best Bet: Morphettville Race 9 No 6 Lakhani Rose (W) $7.50

No worries Macca, ill take it. Mig Energy got up for a plc at least..... Im on Moriera for those races already so we will see..!

I actually meant, its a bit annoying they put the fields up so late. I was looking to do the form yesterday. Yes i agree, Demons Rock is a good horse and it looks overs. Patrick Payne has a few good runners at Bendigo and sister Michelle also has taken a horse she trains there as well. There is also a Night of Thunder horse Coupe de Tonnerre in the 1st race there, looking for its first win in a maiden. 3/1

Ok got it.....thats a bit annoying. My best is.......(drum roll)...........................race 2 no 1 ...Demons Rock ! Zac Purton.

Do you know if there are races in Hong Kong this weekend? Hutch gave a tip Mig Energy, yet i cant see any HK races on Ladbrokes?

Good one Macca.....i started watching Freud recently, thats pretty good. Of course there is Roy & HG every Sat at 12noon on Grandstand while your watching the races ! https://www.abc.net.au/radio/grandstand/live/

Did he, ok. Thats hopeful then. Yes i was looking at the 47kg with my pick.

Best Bets: (Sat) Morphettville Race 6 No.1 Garner (W) $2.70 Sandown Race 7 No.1 Ancestry (Place) $2.60 Morphettville: Race 8 No 16 Away Game (W) $4.50 Approx 32/1 for this weeks BBs. I must say i do like a horse called Garner trained by a V Richards and ridden by Holder. A very West Indian cricket flavour !

Best Bet: Saturday Morphettville: Race 8 No 16 Away Game (W) $4.50

Ah i see. When i write out the 3 bets, i now put them in sequential order as they are run. I guess the Dooz is more suited over 2000 as they say, just thought it might have brained em over 1700 but it wasnt to be. Did look a touch jumpy in the mounting yard. Sometimes the internationals can be a bit one paced i think. Will be one to look at in the Spring perhaps, if we get a spring carnival. They might have to send the Ruby Princess off to England to bring back a few horses, dont think it will have much else to do for a while !
