Great run Tagus. Went very early, but held them off easily.

 

[Rough_Edges]

well that ruins my day

 

[Rough_Edges]

looks like the track is really cut up now might stay away from the last race, already got my bet on So Elusive but I think that will be my last.

also already have the tri on: 6,12,23/5,6,7,8,12,14,16,23/5,6,7,8,10,12,14,16,23

 

[sblack]

Box quinella for Race 9: 6,7,8.

 

[bluegumby]

i wanted to place a small e.w randwick r7. no 12 hopefully it doesn't place now

 

[mattys123]

Huge plunge on Shadowfax in the last, Kavanagh said it was his best of the day, and it got a run due to the scratchings.

Will start favourite.

If it wasn't boxed, and if the order you have typed them is the order on the ticket, then the TAB guy was correct.

If it was boxed, then he was wrong. The ticket would have been worth 83.33% of the Trifecta.

anyone else having a problem logging onto their sportingbet account?

Yup sportingbet is down.

 

[mike262]

oh ok the TAB guy is prob right. i never saw the ticket so i dont know if it was boxed. What does Flexi mean then? i had assumed that ment in any order. obviously not.

 

[blue_boys]

Yup sportingbet is down.

hope they fix it soon. good to know it's not my internet that the problem though

RACE 6 at Eagle Farm

1 - Fleet n Fast

 

[Rough_Edges]

Happy I took the $18's about So Elusive last night, into $8.50 on track now, getting backed pretty strongly.

Flexi means you take a certain % depending on how much you wish to bet. So you can take a Trifecta worth $100, with a $10 flexi worth 10% of the Trifecta value.

 

[Rough_Edges]

LOL - what a shit day. How does that win, coming off a Terang win. Jesus.

 

[tarky]

Yes! had $5 ew on Snapparazi

 

[maxlad]

[Barnzy]

Just did for me.

 

[maxlad]

[sblack]

True Persuasion was pathetic. Perturbo was OK. Hit the line hard.

Shit day.

 

[Bic]

Account reads $1362.50 after starting the day with $100.

Lovely

 

[Bic]

RACE 10.

What you guys thinking?

I'll have a cheeky e/w on Into the Sun, as a friend owns that horse.

What else we thinking?

I'm looking to hit another big trifecta on this one.

Typical cup day crap. I don't know why i bet in these races?

What drugs is Boss on? Why would he race up the inside which is clearly stuffed?
