Wins at 2000m next time so put it in the black book I was worried before the corner and more worried half way down the straight! Thanks for the Form Guide for the morrow.I'm refusing to read it in case I end up blaming you for my losing picks. Shame about Rand R1 down to 6 already. wanna change it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted June 19, 2020 Author Share Posted June 19, 2020 "Probably Tisani Tomso who has paid a divvy every time he's hit the bog but is currently almost friendless at $31. You just need to have the attitude like his sire and get the passage like his dam" 😄😁 Some mindless trivia here but Tisani Tomso comes from a great old NZ family. His 5th dam was the Gold Nib mare Sherry Party who had 3 notable siblings - one won a Queensland Derby and Brisbane Cup; another won a Wellington Steeplechase; and the 3rd (by the sire of Sweet Nymph and Sweet Spray) ran 3rd in the AJC Sires' Produce and was later a cheap stallion at Hautapu, Cambridge standing for 50 guineas and sired the good open handicapper Papahu (who I saw win a Stratford Cup when I as a kid) plus two good jumpers who each won the McGregor Grant Steeplechase at Ellerslie. Can you name the 3 siblings to Tisani Tomso's 5th dam and the two McGregor Grant winners by sibling No. 3 ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big fields, wet tracks. Which begs a question worth asking re the Big Day Out tomorrow ... Q: Of the 20 players not in the Semis, who would you want making selections for you? Max would choose Porky Ray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooFast Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Good morning, folks. Semi-Finals Day ....and a big challenge ahead for us 'Much Too Fast' in our 'must-win' clash with an imposing 'Maximillions' line-up that went within a nostril of taking out the Minor Premiership. We go in as definite 'under-dogs' today, with our 0-2 record against the 'Maximllions' indicating that we are well-and-truly up against it, but the form book can be turned on its head when it comes to 'knock-out'. With a very canny bunch of selectors in our MTF ranks it is certainly not beyond the realms of possibility that we can pull off an upset here. Myself, up against the formidable "Wuffie King" Rob who has a vastly superior record to mine this comp, the challenge for me is a big one. Rob had a quiet day last Saturday but as we all know that is when the longshot maestros are at their most dangerous, coming in off a miss. So I'd have to say I'm cautiously optimistic at best. I'm gonna go with these today :- R1) 3x5 R2) 3x6 Best Bet 1 R3) 3x5 R4) 9x12 R5) 1x3 Best Bet 2 R6) 3x8 R7) 4x7 R8) 10x13 R9) 3x17 R10) 12x16 The very best of luck today to my brilliant "teamies" Zac, Rex, Craig and Ashoka. Let's keep those winners flowing, guys. Good luck also to Rob, Maxi, and all the Maximillions. An exciting contest looks in store. Wishing good luck also to the 'Five-Oh' and 'The James Gang' today. Gonna be a sterling battle here. I'm picking 'The James Gang' by a nostril. Presenting themselves out of the pack at just the right tiime. Thanks very much for this fine comp, PJ. It's been brilliant, as your comps always are. Cheers. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) 11 hours ago, VvD said: The post seemed pretty self explanatory. Of the 20 players who didn't make the play-offs there was one Hurricane team member and at least two Kats. You said you'd want Porky (a Hurricane) making your selections for you and John made a joke about how Sharne and Jen might feel about that. A bit too subtle perhaps? ps. looks like Fenech (the horse) was named after Jeff (the boxer) https://www.justhorseracing.com.au/general-news/betting/knockout-omen-quinella-bet-for-punters/613233 Thanks for that fulsome explanation, VvD. As you know, Max comes from theThickastwoplanks branch of the Mustelid family. Didn't realise the Porkypine is a HairyCane as well. We'll get him in to the Animal Kingdom one day. Best wishes for the big day ahead. MM PS: Regarding the joke being too subtle, perhaps? I don't see why my (past and future) Kats team-mates Sharne/Jen would be upset about Max selecting Porky for today's picks, given his outstanding current form for Covid-Y, which has precisely nothing to do with the HairyCanes (past or future).

Covered the world two starts back, and only just went under. Zac - Best Bet Craig - Best Bet Rex - Best Bet Howie - selected, but not BB Ashoka - still to post, but possibly Royal Witness BB 🙂 A reasonably open race ....but it looks like MTF have nailed this ! .... and onto the Grand Final next Saturday.
