    Suh tried very hard for us last week, but came up just short of victory. His placing returned us a 2.5 pt profit from the three selections. 

    This week we head to  South Africa and Bermuda.

    DP Tour: Head selection  is Ryan Fox 16/1, Fox has now slipped  inside  the top 30 in the rankings at 27 with a stellar season. Playing in high altitude on a Gary Player course should have his ball flying.His support acts are...

    A Rai (25)  R Hojgaard (28)  T Lawrence (55)  Paul (35) and roughie is Croaker(100)

    Bermuda: Herbert (25)  Bhiatia(20) roughies Lipsky and Villegas.

    I can't  remember many stallions winning  the Caulfield Cup . I'll take a stab at Diatribe and Mongolian Khan only because they have had Aussie runners. Best Solution also came to mind but I think he only has 2 and 3yr olds on the ground in the NH

    The PGA leg in Japan looked too tricky, so pretty much all in on the DP Tour. 

    Hillier  Helligkilde   Brun  Lawrence   Kimsey  Soderberg all good ew value

    Good T10/20 players of value Crocker  Elvira  Huizing  Arnaus   Pulkkanen 

    Fox is short as expect this week so off plan, we have some small doubles with LPGA stable regulars Ko  Lee  Ayaka Shibuno Buhai. Tiger for punishment but at 115/1 we have to take Lydia ew again this week

    The reality is that much policy is bullshit, when you have a 3 party coalition much of it goes out the window.

     

    Like the Prime Minister revolving doors show over here Barry, 3 drivers at the wheel of the bus sounds like a crash waiting to happen for the Kiwi public.

    Good luck with getting your  ticket into the box today people. Remember, vote for policy and not the same old colour of the rosette!

    I notice the ex PM getting in behind the campaign from the safe haven of a state campus. Gee, that's one hell of a school run each morning!🚘🛫🛬🚘

    A couple of placings last week 3.5pt loss, where Fox was unlucky not to  get an extra 18 holes,which could have made it interesting. 300/1 shot also unlucky  for us falling a stroke short of the places.

    USA: Kim T   Kim  SW  Schenk  Norrman and his bestie Aberg seem to all have good chances.

    DP Tour: This looks like a Rahm fest! But players holding  good ew value and have started well on the early tees.

    Stable regulars Helligkilde 60   Arnaus 60   Bachem 80  Elivera 135  Pulkkanen 290.

    LIV value: Puig

    Challenge Tour: Wenyi Ding 55/1

    With Rahm so short it may pay to look at some  treble for example Rahm- T Kim- D Johnson @over 500/1. Others to consider are Alker on the fat belly tour, D Kang LPGA, Laporta Challenge Tour,

    As I have tripped  back over the years to NZ, I have seen the sharp rise in goods and services. I don't know how the average  Kiwi survives without being loaded down with debt. I'm presuming  now that most mortgage borrowing is 7/8 times or more of the household  salary.  The  heavy reliance of imports is tipping NZ into the Pacific. Don't get me wrong I still love NZ, but it is a small fish in a big pond.The imagration  rates to Aus and beyond  tell a story that NZ unfortunately  can't compete salary  wise with other countries with the cost of living in the country. I would love to return to NZ, but at this point and time Nz falls well short in living costs and salaries for Mrs M and I.

    2.5pt profit last week, with  one of the girls just sliding into the places.

    With a light spend last week,we are attacking the tournaments all guns blazing!Not enough time to study the lucrative  Challenge  Tour  this week, but may put up some selections after the 1st round.

    DP Tour: Tricky affair in Scotland this week, as they play over three different courses Carnoustie (Championship course)St Andrews(old course) and Kingsbarns links.Course and links golf experience  is crucial.

    Fox  Olsen  A Fitzpatrick   3 Scots holding good value Ramsey  Ferguson  Forrest. Roughies at great prices Arnaus and Lagergren. 

    USA: S H Kim  Hughies  Riley   Svensson   Cole   Jaeger.

    I tell ya what those Berry trees were yum yum, he buried his rivals in the Auckland Cup, same can’t be said about the Wellington Cup

    Spot on Globe and PJ! 

    They had trouble with the sweetfeed in the Waikato  at around that time for a while. Alot of big Waikato  stables threw positives from my understanding, all sweeped under the carpet!

    KC ran a track record that day on a track that had the hooves rattling, just how he liked it! I think the record was lowered a year or two later. 

    What a great sight to see the stands and track so full, brings back good memories.
