Lightning Blue Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 Good morning NZ for Showday and the running of the great DOMINION (non)Handicap and the time honoured Nz FFA. A race the great CARDIGAN BAY famously won in front of blazing inferno grandstand. Most of the 'Race Place' Pundits that entered Cup Day, are in with their runners ok, and assembled at the starting line . Good Luck to all. Awaiting ROBERT and MAX to post their picks I think . Newbies welcome !!!(it's a 4 meeting Competition.) spend $100 at each meet, with 1 or 2 bets. (Hesi leads $524 ,the rest of us 0 after round 1) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightning Blue Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 Well DOUBLE R must be coming in late, Robert may be looking at the Cambridge Card . Race 1 about to go and SMILER in action looking for a Top 4 finish from 'Idle Stuartia'. and Lightning Blue myself needing KD HAWK to trot well. are the 2 players in action in the first race about to go.

Lightning Blue Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 Smiler out of action with one 'multi' after R1. (Lightning out for the day as KD Hawk gallops out of it badly) so Race 2 will have Smiler , a chance to redeem with his 2nd multi on SAND WAVE, to run in Top 3 position. GlobeDerby and Richie also watching for a SAND WAVE top 4 finish. Dancing Show the Comp 1 winner is backing the Bookie TOMMY WATERHOUSE ( a lightningB selection so likely to meet 'trouble' sorry Maria) and Mike seeking a CELEBRATING win , so he can celebrate a win ! trifecta of 10-11-2 would have everyone happy.

Lightning Blue Posted November 12, 2021 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 Race 2 goes to the well driven TOMMY WATERHOUSE , so Dancing Show struts her stuff again , showing that winning form that took Comp 1. 'Sand' has been thrown in Smiler's face (needed 3rd) with SAND WAVE 4th , but Globe D and Richie advance to the next race ok , with CYRUS and ALWAYS HAVE FAITH Joining the action in RACE 3, are Karrots , wanting a Top 4 finish from BOOM , (along with Dancing Show on a 'Booming' run too) Brown Fox , (knowing how good Mark is) looking for the ALWAYS HAVE FAITH win for his double today. Hesi is making his whole run here too !!!!! needing DASHING MAJOR to run a place. his only bet today. SO the First 4 i'm taking is 13- 7- 6- 2 to get all the players home safely !! good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karrotsishere Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 What the heck, happened to catch that race, & a horse had selections for comp on, Boom was nicely in trail, got interfered with from parked horse. How did that happen. ... ? Locked wheels. Not his fault! These professional drivers need watch their horses - parked horse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit stiff Karrots ! don't often get taken out of the race from trailing the leader. It all went Boom. Mark ,in his usual winning ways , casually took your spot behind leader vacated by Boom, and the resulting Victory from it. Son of a Gun.

Lightning Blue Posted November 12, 2021 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 Race 3 , sees yet another Mark Purdon win with ALWAYS HAVE FAITH... Brown Fox taking full advantage !!! Richie alive with that Marky Boy selection too. also through safely were Globe , Moz1047, and Rusty all on CYRUS to place. BOOMing out of luck were Dancing Show, Karrots , and the F4. HESI takes the $200 for a DASHING MAJOR place so moves his bank up to a total of $724 . well done Hesi. RACE 4 , has Brown Fox going for a 'collect' off LOVE N PORT to win, Mike is back with MISSYLISSA for a place , Rusty and Richie have REGAL ATTIRE, Max in with SODS LAW. trifecta needed (after the tiny $20 one previous race ) is 1 -6 -12 to help the pundits along.

Lightning Blue Posted November 12, 2021 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 'Brown Fox' only 1/2 head off scoring $1,440 in the trot with LOVE N the PORT going down narrowly sadly. So Hesi keeps the lead for the moment. RACE 5 has some new players in town >>> 'Pete' with ROMEO SHARD, and 'Happy Sunrise' looking for an ARABIAN BLUE placing (Mike also) Addington has JAGARRA running , Richie looking for a Top 4 from GET UP AND DANCE. your lucky numbers after the previous race quinella are for the First 4 in R5 9- 11 - 14 - 7 .

Absolutely burnt them off . very good win. ! Not sure why Folklore (Jonny Cox) would be taking on this next race FFA ??? against 2 Purdons and 2 Dunns making it near impossible for her. when she would nearly of Won Race 10 today, a LISTED mares Classic . very strange decision to Not have a crack at the 40k race. On the Scrapheap go Pete, Mike, HappyS, Addington after Race 5. GlobeD looking for FRANCO NIVEN top 4 for a 'collect'. and Moz with SHAN NOBLE win in race 6.

Globederby19 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Boy have they run some time in the FFA. Brilliant stuff, a 1.52 middle mile and gutsy effort by SCA to stave them off after burning early and being eyeballed early. Great training effort by Mangos, with obviously, by Nat's remarks a difficult horse to handle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karrotsishere Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Wow wonder how he (SS) would go in Elitloppet. Another sizzling run race won by SCA. Laver made a race of it. As they sizzled along. Congrats connections of SCA. Team NORTH take the Cup & FFA. Nice run Krug. Perhaps he goes onto the top elite of elite list already. Taking a look tally & stays as is how Lightning left it with no-one else making the scoreboard other than Richie & Hesi. Just mine Top 4 single bet left My Ultimate Chevron in last race.
