PWJ Posted January 15, 2022 Author Share Posted January 15, 2022 Round 1 - Saturday Jan 15 Race 10 - Gold Coast R91st - 3 Wisdom of Water W-$7.00 2nd - 12 Boomnova Q-$55.80 Scr: 13(L) Sbs: #4 then #3 3 Yahabebees $1335.60 3 points 2 Wurzels $853.60 0 points Chapter and Verse couldn't quite do it for Maurice so the Yahabebees held on with Rob bagging a BB for them in the last to secure a team profit bonus point. Sharne picked up a BB on the 2nd fave but not enough to reel in Howie while Jakey also got the final winner for the Wurzels. Richie - with 6 winners from the first 8 races including 3 quinellas - was Man of the Match while Sharne edged Midnight Caller for Wurzel MVP honours. 123.60 Wrinkles 213 Midnight Caller 397.20 Richie 127 Jakey Boy 308.80 Howie 220 Sharne 327 Heather 91 Maurice 179 Rob 202.60 Pete 4 Offngone $1567.00 4 points 1 Hot Baches $1428.80 1 point The late scratching of the Hot Baches' winning hope in the last dashed their dreams of winning although Captain Maria bagged a late BB to earn them a team profit bonus point. Offngone - for whom Secret Squirrel & Stevie collected in the last - earned bonus points for a team profit and 4-1 margin. Their Captain Ian was Man of the Match with 6 winners while Steve P edged Blind Squirrel for Hot Baches' MVP honours. Pam had the unluckiest day of anyone in the comp. 334 Secret Squirrel 195.60 Maria 479 Ian 411.60 Blind Squirrel 251 Stevie N 156.80 Pam 223 Ziggy 417.20 Steve P 280 Rees 247.60 Happy Sunrise 2 Grey Ways $909.00 0 points 3 Max Factor $1027.40 2 points Surf N Turf $1218.80 2 points Captain Max's BB on the Neasham winner got him up to defeat Dino and win the match for the Max Factors after a torrid battle all day. Able lieutenant Robert also bagged a BB in the last to secure Man of the Match honours with 6 winners including two quinellas. Rex also landed a BB in the last to earn the Grey Ways' MVP crown. Surf N Turf missed out on a team profit bonus point to go with the two awarded for superior aggregate when only Graeme labelled his 6th winner of the day in the last. Captain Ray was SNT's MVP. Apologies to Surf N Turf - I had made an error with your aggregate earlier in the day but it is corrected now. 169 Dino 279 Max 176.80 Buller Rep 383.20 Robert 61.80 Jen 134.60 Gary 172.20 Gordy 150.60 Trotslover 329.20 Rex 80 Punter Pete 439.40 Ray 170.20 Geoff 366.40 Graeme 117.80 Gospel of Judas 125 Gee 2 Grim Reapers $1701.60 2 points 3 Mr Aybees $1461.00 3 points Another close match saw a dramatic turnaround in the last when Lightning Blue bagged his 6th winner to get up and down PJ and win the match for the Mr Aybees. Harewood, like Lightning Blue, also chalked up his 6th winner for the day in the final event while Captain Hesi bagged a BB - his 6th winner also. Newbie Tonkatime was a very impressive on debut for The Reapers with the Man of the Match crown while Lightning Blue edged Harewood (another two promising newbies) for Aybee MVP honours. Both sides earned team profit bonus points while the Grim Reapers added another for a superior aggregate - the best of any team today. 383.60 PJ 406 Lightning Blue 432.40 Tonkatime 189.60 Jack 299 Roland 404 Harewood 198.40 Smiler 237.60 Tom 388.20 Hesi 223.80 Craig TABLE after ROUND 1 Offngone are not quite off and gone yet but they lead the way after round 1 where many teams picked up bonus points on a very good day's picking. The top 4 teams after day plus the Hot Baches all showed a profit. 1st 4 pts Offngone $1567.00 2nd 3 pts Mr Aybees $1461.00 3rd 3 pts Yahabebees $1335.60 4th 2 pts Grim Reapers $1701.60 5th 2 pts Surf N Turf $1218.80 6th 2 pts Max Factors $1027.40 7th 1 pt Hot Baches $1428.80 8th 0 pts Grey Ways $909.00 9th 0 pts Wurzels $853.60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind Squirrel Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) Well played all but especially the reapers who have each won a copy of the new Racing Annual for the highest team total today. Please PM me an address I can Courier/{Post your copy to (no PO Boxes) and I will get sorted during the week. Also well played VC (Ian) - right about now you are probably on your latest cold beer after a magic day on the Gold Coast. Too good for the Squirrel today but a pretty decent struggle all the way!

craigos1 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Thanks Alan For the match you yet again were too good for me. All the best for your future matches Reapers. Tom & harness heroes LB and Harewood got us over the line and even though Jack & I didn't win it helped to get a bonus point. As always thanks PJ , this is the best comp going. I hope you get a buyer for your yearling. Cheers. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
