PWJ Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 Round 1 - Saturday Dec 26 Race 9 - Eagle Farm R81st - 5 Roheryn W-$4.20 2nd - 6 The Odyssey Q-$19.60 Scr: 7,10 Geoff goes 9-for-9 on the narrow Godolphin winner and has Baller and Starvirgo in the last to go for the clean sweep. Richie misses and suddenly finds himself bumped down to 4th as PJ and John slide by. BBs bagged by Stevie N, TC and Ian, but no one nailed the quinella. Match between Virgil and Tom is close as is the Wandering v Stevie N contest. 479.00 Geoff E 364.20 PJ D 351.80 John G 351.00 Richie E 350.00 Porky P 310.20 Rex Q 302.00 Wandering S 296.80 Gordy H 282.60 Rees C 282.00 StevieN S 266.00 Punter Pete F 231.00 Hesi T 230.00 Ian G 224.60 Howie Q 223.00 Pete M 222.00 Rocky N 186.00 Dancing Show K 180.00 The Crucible N 157.00 Graeme R 147.80 Craig M ---------------------points plimsoll------------------- 138.80 Sharne J 138.00 Virgil B 135.00 Ngakonui Grass T 118.60 VonS F 91.00 Rob A 85.00 Tom B 83.40 Max K 79.00 Roland J 69.00 Ray D 69.00 Midnight Caller H 68.00 Georgy Boy R 0 Jill P 0 Jen A 0 Gee C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesi also landed a BB to claim 4th with Rex gaining 3 places at the death to secure 3rd. Max, Ray and Midnight Caller also bagged BBs in the last to make it into the points much to the consternation of Craig, TC and Dancing Show ! See you all again tomorrow at the 'Naki and Taz.

JustPlodded Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Another truism for racing is that they always do better when you don’t watch them. I had to go east today after the first comp race and where there is no TV or internet. Checked at about R7 on my phone (by walking up a hill to get 1 bar signal) and was doing ok (beating Howie). Got home after it was all over. I will be at home tomorrow, so watch my number of winners dry up. Thanks for the comp PJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hope to build in the next 6-8 months there. So don't know how to describe it as other than "had to go east today" cos that is what happened.

TooFast Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Well-supported 13 - Darci La Bella appears to be a late-scratching in the next race. 10- Honey Honey is the raging hot favourite for the Tony Pike stable, and therefore the obvious sub, followed by 5 - Melody Roxx for Lisa Allpress.

TooFast Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Did I hear that Darci La Bella was late-scratched because the jockey was overweight ? If so ....... disappointing. 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
