Racing April Daily Punt- The Championswamps and a farewell to the Queen

[juice t]

No, Queen Elizabeth hasn't quite carked it to the disappointment of the republican movement, but Winx is finishing up on April 13th... and after that, all we've got left is So Si Bon to laugh at

EDIT AFTER THE DONCASTER:

Heard on the news that the actual Queen is giving up driving on the roads. I was shocked.. because i had no idea she drove! She apparently will drive on her own properties though. am glad i am not one of her corgis!

Duly noted and change performed

On a side note, me and a couple of mates are making the pilgrimage from shithole Gippsland to Royal Randwick to see her off.

Industry friend had sorted out Members passes etc. Gonna be an absolute cracker.

Christ - I am going to have to get there around 6am if they are letting this kind of filth into the members.

 

[HeathySure]

I prefer Swampionships to Championswamps

rolls off the tongue better

Yeah I'm still not convinced they'll let my putrid arrangement in

 

[TBellicious]

I’m heading to Randwick for the first time this weekend. Very excited

Although Championswamps is now ingrained in the identity of the Punting Board

not a bad field of goodish ordinary sprinters
got my bases covered, Pierata in the Wet, Vega Magic in the dry!

Just read a story where the Sire Wanted went through the sales ring and got passed in for $30k. Granted he was a dud at stud (poetry by me) but surely you could make a small profit with him given he sired a group 1 winner or by selling him to China or something

Any of you gents know much about the Japanese horse Kluger ??

No. But a quick glance at its form suggests it’s got none. Looks overbet like so many Japanese are here.

If Vega Magic can win a TJ first up I'll give the game away

Backing the Japanese in Australia has been a quick road to the poor house for a while now- they only send their C-D graders these days who are genuinely camels.

Avilius heading to the paddock just in case there were those out there stupid enough to think he wouldn't get his head kicked in by Winx again in the QE

 

[iluvparis]

Bendigo having a midweek meeting 3 days after their standalone Saturday seems solid programming

 

[king rising]

Very much looking forward to the battle Probabeel vs Castelvecchio in the sires. Both the class horses of the field imo who will relish 1400 and will be absolutely flying late. Expect them to pick up the leaders at around the 100 metre mark and battle it out to the line. Could be a quinella job.

 

[king rising]

Probabeel smacked up Yourdeel who went like the best thing since sliced bread in NZ last weekend.. leaning her way

 

[FallingLiefs]

thought yourdeels run is overrated.

horses side by side it ran along with it for much of straight. taking away the tomato sauce, was about 1L superior to the eye. hardly jumping all over that NZ 2yo form.

 

[Viva la Mattner]

Thoughts on Redzel’s chances? $8 at present

First glance if she accepts Sunlight at 11’s the overs IMO

I hope Dundeel sires a son called DeelOrNoDeel
