Dee Zephyr

Number 6 Naval Warfare. It was my second pick for the win so it’s worked out in the end.

Best Bet: Doomben Race 5 No.3 Zousain TAB Odds: $3.10 Drawn nicely and McEvoy booked to take the ride again. He’s ridden the horse to both career wins to date and his last victory looked soft in the end. Settled back and showed a devastating turn of foot upon straightening to reel in the leaders quickly and finished off with the old “hands and heels” method. I believe this horse has plenty more to offer, certainly looks a star of the future.

You’re spot on Macca, Doomben is shaping up as a really good day for racing. I had a look at the whole card a short time ago and there are some terrific races. I have a selection for the McKell Cup. I’m going for a value runner in No.5 Lovani. Edit: Did I go too early? Wadda hasn’t declared his pick yet I see.

Impending for the trifecta fellas. I don’t mind throwing in a pick for the McKell as well Macca.

I’m happy with any of the 3 Macca, here’s my order of preference in case a “tiebreaker” is required. 1. McKell Cup - Randwick 2. Kingsford-Smith Cup - Doomben 3. Queensland Oaks - Doomben

Hold your horses!! You’re wondering on the right track Macca. Spoke to mate today and they are considering giving the Zephyr one more run with the blinkers on. Admittedly the win was in a weak field of 4 and had the horse lost it would have been in the paddock definitely. Will provide further updates soon. Will check out the trifecta options when I get home a little later.

Thanks Macca. Paging @Diamond_Jim who showed support for the Zephyr!! Finally a win mate!

I’m very happy for the “ The Day at the Races” crew to finally see the Zephyr win. He turned back the clock with that win. Happy resting Dan!

My mate text me a short time ago. This is the Zephyr’s final run before retiring to the paddock?. Good luck if you have a little something on him!

3pm Wadda. I’ll be at work and will check the results. I expect a full report from anyone that watches the race.??

Surely Macca?.... only need to beat 3 runners home. He won’t get a better chance to break the drought, although the top weight is a good horse and $1.70 favourite with Ned’s.

Indeed Macca, I forgot to post about the Zephyr and good to see his consistency by drawing widest again.?

No problem binman, as always your contribution is appreciated.

Looked like the winner early in the straight.

Sorry Wadda, tried QLD racing for you but they are only showing replays. A Waller quinnela.

Ok, I’m on. Put it on with Neds and split my investment by 3 so I can place it on all totes (Vic, NSW, QLD), much easier than trying to guess which state will pay the most should we be successful.?

Nice work, emergency plan in action. My only single win bet for the day and I’M A RIPPA salutes in Doomben. Tough win.

Yep, up to you and Macca. Rich Charm disappointing a tad, Udyta stated she didn’t want to draw the inside 3 barriers, not sure if that was the reason.

Just watched Pleasuring win well in Adelaide, gives Damian Lane a treble out of 3 races so far. Hot, Hot, Hot!

Tyson anyone??

Good idea Macca. Im more than happy to go with yourself or Wadda for the “emergency” pick.

Rated a Soft5 at the moment Wadda. Boom Time should be too good for this lot. Returned with a great first-up run.

G’day binman, just realised we need one more selection from you for the placings when you get some time please. Cheers.

Good luck Wadda, hope they hang on for you.

Nice work lads. All later races so no need for me to do the Zephyr Dash to the TAB early. Weekend off and looking forward to some good racing.
