A mate said he found it at 50/1 for the Slipper this week, but i couldnt see it anywhere. ......was your mate at the track? The owners looked pretty happy. That horse would have been a good one to get in on for some shares D77.
Yeah he was in there somewhere, he said it was a big win. Happy days at Randwick for connections and it's still a colt....

Post race jockey said it is pretty average at getting out of the gates, but is improving. A better start sees him win well. Good chance in the Slipper. should be around 8/1
It was $201 for the Slipper prior to its Pierro Plate win a fortnight ago. PL kicking in as I didn't put a dollar on it at those odds. Not saying it will win but it might have been a decent cash out offer.

I was amazed by this. Pushed the Melbourne player out of the way like something behind her was on discount. Then kicked the goal. Outrageous. No eyes on the ball or anything!
Yeah, I was staggered when I saw that, I was trying to be nice about it in the earlier post.
It was even more staggering that the commentators thought it was a brilliant play. That was a classic example of nearly costing a team the game.

Best Value: Flemington Race 7
No.4 Levendi $18.00W $5.20P
No.16 Bring Me Roses $18.00 $5.20P
Both horses ran well first up and although it's a very tricky race the odds are appealing. I looked outside the fancied runners and the above offer terrific value. They both seem to like the track.
Good luck all!

I'm making Alizee my "Best".
Will nominate a couple of roughies after further studying.

Can some please explain the rules in a ruck contest?
Frederick-Traub clearly pushed the Melbourne player out of the way in the goal square prior to kicking the goal late in the last.
My understanding is, pushing, blocking, bumping, is classed as prohibited contact when contesting a bounce/throw up/boundary throw in.
Was the call of play on a correct one?

Oh crap ive jinxed it now! Yep your right D77, better put it on regardless. Should be a good weekends racing and no footy distractions, well Melbourne ones anyway.
Lol Wadda, it was certainly hard work at the pub last Saturday. The left eye was focused on the racing, right eye on the footy and fingers were in charge of Demonland.
Looking forward to tomorrow. We'll see if Santos is a serious player heading into the Golden Slipper.

Ok its good to see the bets coming in so we can get on early if we wish, as i think just about all of these may come in.
Care to Think 2.40
Santos 2.10
Alizee 2.25
gives us 11.34.
Edit:::Opps i just re read the thread and D77 is going to wait until Sat, sorry im jumping the gun a bit.....(long day at work).....still it's not a bad multi so what the heck!
Done deal Wadda. That one will go on regardless of additional selections. Now that it's been posted we don't want to feel the dreaded "PL".

Thats all pretty good then D77. As i said im worried they will smash him into 1.50 with that field, then it wont be any value at all and in fact on a hiding to nothing. They are 2yo after all. Perhaps we can get on early like say tomorrow night, if most of the BBs are in. I would say he will come in to at least 1.80.
Any wet track form? Lets wait for the late mail then.
My other pick would be Cliffs Edge in the Guineas race, but there are some good sorts in there as well.
Untried in the wet Wadda. The weather is predicting sun for Fri and Sat up there.
I'll have some more info soon hopefully. I agree with you, best to get in early with the current odds.
Edit: Santos did win a trial on a slow5 back in Jan. Mate says there's no rain up there.

How can they have Essendon 2-7.
All of us here have them that high. No?
They are everyone's "second" team after all.

Im happy to make Santos my best bet. Unless D77, you want to make it yours as hes your baby? I dont mind at all. I want to atone for my loss last week on Ace High. Was slightly disappointed he didnt finish with a bit more dash. You never really know if jockeys are under instruction or not.
Normally i dont like 2yo as they can do anything, and if theres a bit of rain about its an unknown factor. Hes a little short at 2.10 and i hope he doesnt come in to something stupid, but in the small field he looks a good thing.
I wasn't going to make Santos my best Wadda, not saying he can't win. If someone else wants to declare him, all good. I think he can win, I'm just waiting for the "word" from Sydney.
I have a feeling the $2.10 will get a beating due to his last run.
Alizee stands out to me at the moment but also short at $2.15. I'll probably wait until Saturday morning for scratchings/state of track.
Edit: Santos had a cracking trial/gallop last Saturday so he's as ready as ever. If he repeats his last run he will be extremely hard to toss.

There were a number of impressive performances first-up but I was pleased with the confidence OMac displayed.
Great body work one on one, he read the play well, excellent by foot and looks to have added some size and strength.
It was only the one game and we shouldn't get carried away as we will face more dynamic centre and forward lines but having Lever next to him will aid this kid in becoming a very solid KPD.

It wasn't really a joke, was it?

Again, the winner just too good.
You always get a run for your money in these types of races - Beauty Generation is a proven Group 1 winner and that experience was telling.
Group racing sorts out the newcomers but Beat the Clock & Fifty Fifty weren't disgraced. To win these races you've got to beat the best of the best.
Went 2 - 6 - 6 in both races but should have gone 3 - 5 - 5. There wasn't a 6th horse in either race that was going to threaten. You live and learn.
Spot on Macca, I tuned in to watch both races and the winners would just not give in.
I didn't have anything going but was cheering for you and Wadda.
Until next week.

Out of the last 6 quarters of football we have been kept goalless for 3 of them.

Good result and well played, as a team. Greater options appear available with the list. OMac failed to please being led up the ground out of position too often. Does a bit too much holding, as well, without acquired discretion. Frosty needs to be at CHB and Tom needs to come back to FFWD as we have great players in the forward line with many options. Loved to game played by Salem, Maynard and ANB.
Seriously? Get over it, he was good by foot today. It's not easy playing last line of defence and he won't win every contest.
Most of us would like to see Frost in the team but the fact they chose OMac in the first JLT speaks volumes.
Give the kid a break!!!

One of the highlights has been Salem's use of the ball.

Made a mess of them, in the end Oohood paid $3.00 the place and Written By $5.40 on the tote.
Comprehensive win!

Unlucky, caught 3 wide the whole trip. Not a good ride by the jock. Jumped well and didn't push on to sit outside leader, tried to take it back and slot in but was caught in no mans land.
