Alexander Beetle

[boom crash opera]

this thing is a flying machine. got speed to burn and is in at mooney valley tonight. could be worth a small investment each way at nice odds. will be in the finish mark my words

 

[go fullta]

ive watched this horse from day one!! i had the exacta last start, palace general to beat it at colac because i knew it wouldnt be able to hold off such a classy horse!!

the connections have been a bit stiff tonight striking such a strong race!! any other night in 1000m 0-82, alexander beetle would be a good thing!! but with horses such as gold salute( been waiting for this one, for a while) and samadji (ditto) it would want to be at its peak!!

tip

1. samadji
2. gold salute
3. alexander beetle

Anyone having a quaddie tonight? Any tips?
Have got the first two winners so I've got my bank

3- General McArthur
4- Lapse
5- Vicarage Gate*

Working out the quaddie now!

 

[Lockyer24]

Wai Lin was an impressive winner! Blackbooker

I don't mind Dirt Music in the next, but Cefalu will be hard to beat.

Anyway chucked some on dirt music, and some on DM/Cef quinella.

Bloody Roslotta I was on Aftershock.

 

[Ron]

Never again.

Never again will i put a quaddie on a Valley night meeting, because every friggin time a long shot seems to win the last leg.

Once again i'm out in the last leg, you have got to be kidding me.
At least it wasn't Gauci this time.

 

[Lockyer24]

Good tip for the Beetle

Yeah typical MV quaddie

I know how you feel, Ron. I've learned the lesson and haven't had a quaddie on a Valley night meeting for over a year and that won't change.

I got sick of them programming 3YO Class 1 races as a quaddie leg. Questionable or limited exposed form which made a study a nightmare and invariably a roughie tends to get up.

A little birdie told me that Alexander Beetle is targetting the Oakbank easter carnival over here in a fortnight.

yeah jockey slaughtered it friday night. old nifty gave it a shocker, no way to ride that horse, anyway i not sure about oatbank but i look forward to his next ruhn, hopefully in the country and he'll blitz em

 

[boom crash opera]

any1 catch his last run on friday night? absolute ripper. man he excites me. speed to burn, skips clear on the turn and goes for home. always gives you a run for your money. Good horse and gathering quite a cult following too. Gotta be my favourite

 

[SON OF SHAGNY]

yeah mate lucky enough to get on him friday night. heart in mouth stuff last 25m every time though

Whats the best 1000m race at the Valley in spring?
Regardless of class you would have to give the beetle a chance and he would be in it for a long way.

 

[slushpup]

You wouldn't think he'd be quite up to it, but if he keeps improving he'd certainly give them something to chase.

Edit: I think it's the Group 2 Schweppervesence Stakes.

 

[boom crash opera]

it would be far from embarrased but you would think it could beat horses like Kaphero if it was to win group races

 

[boom crash opera]

i apologise. it was embarraed today. proved that he was not upto that class and was treated with discontempt. Didnt jump well and didnt get it easy in front which didnt suit
