Spring Racing

[iluvparis]

Jumped on Farraaj last night @ 15's e/w (Mackinnon). Thought its UK form read ok, must have some talent to be brought to Aus, and then noticed it was a 2nd acceptor for the Cox Plate so yes must have some ability. Missing the CP might work in his favour as the other CP runners in the Mackinnon might be a bit flat after a tough run last week. Opened @ 17's on Sportsbet and is now in to 10's, shorter on Unitab fixed odds. If it can go well fresh then it might be another case of an overseas raider pantsing our better horses.

Geez - didn't think he'd get smashed like that on the fixed odds - thought he'd be relatively friendless. Bit annoying!!!

Still probably the type of horse whose price should hold up ok on the tote.

Any thoughts on the French horse Pornichet in race 3?

Don't usually do Quadies but I guess Derby Day is as good an opportunity as any to try and jag some much needed cash for Tuesdays MC. So here goes...
R6 9, 13
R7 1, 2, 9, 13
R8 4, 7, 13, 16
R9 5, 6, 12

Good luck everyone with your own bets.

Surely no chance - but will throw a token amount on just in case

Worth a punt just for having pr0n in its name

Surprising

Actually if the predicted rain comes and the track is a dead 5, I will definitely have a nibble on Diamond Drille.

Listen to me about the Waterhouse horses - I am usually accurate - I have an idea of which one's are over-rated and under-rated.

 

[yaco55]

As Good as TAGI has been this prep he's not the same class as Driefontein (absolutely luckless last start), Bel Sprinter or even In Cahoots, Big Money or A Time For Julia.

Group horses (some group 1 horses) here, i think its a huge step.

Not saying he can't do it at all, I'm just not diving in at $1.55.

Dont touch Waterhouse horses down the straight - They run like donkeys - One day one will surprise. My point about Deep Field is that he beat an inferior field last time ( comfortably ) and had it easy in the front. I imagine there will be more pressure in this race.

You'll find that if the rain stops before the first race the track will dry out quickly ( assuming they get 10+ mms ) but if it is still raining during the races it will be affected.

Cant say I've ever used trainer/down straight strike rate when doing the form.

Very Amateurish i know.

Yes we know you are an insider - hence why you defend them to the hilt at the slightest hint of criticism.

I was wondering where you were...

Can i have an avatar explanation as well as this post please?

It's a bay13 thing, some idiot posted a picture of his hot daughter Post was in relation to Paris jumping on that guy whenever he mentions Gay Shithouse.
