  1. What about the Geelong Cup?
  2. Constantinople must be a big chance Not running in the St Leger neither is Buckhurst.....I’m of the opinion it could be next year for Buckhurst II Paradiso a must watch Sunday
  3. Another part of the puzzle released today Finche cracking return will be ready to win 3rd up I imagine already locked in as one of my 5 4 more to Choose I have a short list of 30 so plenty to consider Avilius not one for me at any weight Yucatan high up on my list didn’t look comfortable on the rain affected track last year has had another 12 months in Aus What would a horse like Our Candidate need to do to qualify???
  4. It really saddens me to see the demise of NZ racing I have a bucket list of 15 things I want to tick off and on top of that list is an NZ racetrack crawl, not for the punting aspect more for the oasis of serenity amidst the beautiful scenery that NZ has to offer and faaaark me what do they plan on doing start closing some of the tracks down I’m not sure what they can do, or whom can raise the titanic Why don’t they take a leaf out of V’Landys new race the Everest slot holders had to commit to 3 years at a cost of 600k a slot (1.8 million) NZ could try the same introduce offer 12 slots up for grabs at a cost of 333,333 (1 million) for 3 years 12 slots I’m sure the 12 slots would be picked up pronto, they would then have 12 million in the kitty self funded and could create their own race maybe call it “The Remarkable’s” or “Coronet Peak” right there you would have a race worth 4 million a year guaranteed for 3 years and imagine the publicity it would create
  5. V’Landy’s is an extremely strong negotiator with him on board the NRL will be signing off on the next TV deal with Nine and Fox that should net the game in excess of 2 billion The two TV giants will probably push for an extra game which will see 2 extra clubs introduced to the NRL in 2023 most likely another Brisbane side either in Redcliffe or Ipswich and revisiting Perth Wellington were high on the agenda the continued failure of the NZ Warriors sealed their fate
  6. Yeah didn’t see that coming As my senior pyrotechnics officer I was just wondering if you could take it easy on MM next week Now I was thinking Rocky probably in line for a contract upgrade after getting the chocolates yesterday I say we drop the “Way” and replace it with Balboa Zig you’ve been dealt some pretty juicy match ups firstly Rees (that was a given) then Raymondo followed by Trisha Lea and now Maximus who knows who you’ll end up against once we reach Hawaii
  7. Thought you would’ve been watching the Warriors Nice Q in the last Rocky Well done team back on top 10 pts clear of 5th Unfortunately the Captain was left in the starting gates No training required this week

  11. I can’t believe how many stupid people are out there Lay at the bottom of the market and back at the top If you’ve managed to lay Torcedor at the 22s then you’ve done your job very well Im sure you’ve had plenty practice at this Mardi taking money of stupid people You don’t even have to consider backing it until quarantine as after that run it’s likely to stay put!!!
  12. He must’ve been good to you in the past? looks like a lay bet to me for a small profit
  13. Where do you think he would sit in order of entry
  14. I think so a lot to digest at the minute with the Caulfield Cup also out Our Candidate interesting nom been untouched lately Harripour there’s just something about running left handed for me I can’t explain it I have no physical evidence not sure it will make the CC field betting suspended at the moment will be interesting to watch the activity once its back up and running
  15. The Irish St Leger r will probably give us the answer next month II Paradiso and Constantinople also likely for the St Leger the race should be a good form guide As for what price this far out and the uncertainty you wouldn’t be taking less than 100-1
  16. Yes very happy Buckhurst got a nom
  17. Twilight Payment Possible >Likely noms out in just under 3 hours I had Mirage Dancer in my top 5 incidentally for the Caulfield Cup he ran 2nd to Best Solution last year at Newmarket to be trained by Busuttin/Young might look at him for the MC as well Saturday the track in Sydney will be heavy the market currently set for a good4/Slow5 so plenty of value on offer horses like Come Play With Me trialled brilliant will shorten as will Petronius even Bivouac and Anaheed and many others
  18. Lance was interviewed over the ditch here and said SIr Charles Road main aim was the Metropolitan
  19. Great stuff Mardi I wonder if Gundown will be among noms now with Mike Moroney resumes Saturday probably need a start in the BART Cummings also

    Profit for Profit

    Pandano Profit Well done champ
  21. DXB and Falcon8 drifted remarkably on BF with no takers a sure sign they weren’t coming Andrew Bensley was speaking withJamie Richards this morning and Te Akau are going to try and qualify a horse called (Te Akau) Calliburn (not sure of the spelling) through the Bart Cummings Finche trialled last Friday and it was a cracker he will be ready I usually aim to back 5 horses and currently Finche is at the top of my ratings Finche has had another 12 months in Australia will have a luxury weight top trainer is likely to be a big improver and knowing he ran 4th last year won’t have to improve much Taking a line through other imported stayers who improved after 12 months+ down Under Green Moon Fiorente Almandin 31s for a genuine chance represents great value Count Octave also trialled last Friday and he still has a lot of improvement left, the good thing for CV time is still on his side, but i’m going to need to see more over the coming weeks The Ebor answered a few questions also added a few ???? On quite a few others at this early stage I only have 1 horse locked in and that is Finche I believe Sportsbet is the last of the Bookmakers that have Finche at 30s
  22. I agree what price do you think we will get for the spoon I reckon 8s will be Value
  23. I know Mustajeer I think A part share was purchased the other week from memory Liked the run of Raymond Tusk Will watch the replay several times 40 winks now
  24. 16/17 – Carried 9-4 or less16/17 – Aged 6 or younger14/17 – Won from a double-figure stall14/17 – Had won over at least 1m4f before12/17 – Carried 9-1 or less12/17 – Aged either 4 or 5 years-old11/17 – Winning Distance – 1 length or less10/17 – Had 3 or more runs already that I was lucky enough to come across this There were more but I remember a TV program called Eights Enough So that’s where we draw the line Of course 9/4lb is 59kgs so that wiped out the majority of the field, anyway to cut a long story short 1 horse did tick the required boxes and that horse was Dramatic Queen currently around 28-1 BF was matched at 44-1 and a fiver at 48 However the big firmer Raheen House now I wonder who backed that??? Alarm and IQ box set for 12-40am
