Seeing 2.8 now for Howmuchdoyouloveme

 

[Selective Retention]

Luckily I haven't been playing so far today. Spirit of Boom e/w my only bet today in the next.

Are jockeys required to take an IQ test before they are granted a licence?

 

[nobbyiscool]

in the spirit of Chism's best roughies - and given how today is going, I don't understand how Rolling Pin is $31.

4 wins from 12 on good ground. has form around Ambidexter and Light in the Night, which is reasonable form. certainly worth a unit each way i reckon. he's as good a stab in the dark as any today...

Sometimes they baffle the shit out of me. like mcdonald trying to come from adelaide in the straight.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Well this is going well

 

[PieBeast]

down 7.2 units today. how you blokes going?

5 units down mainly due to having a big crack at the quaddie, Howmuchdoyouloveme wins I'll be up.

Gee don't ask!!!

Last 2 bets are....

A Quinella with Spirit of Boom and Tiger Tees.

NSW R8 No.12 Eminent Domain. E/W Fixed odds at 12-1

Very hard day today and it will not get any easier on Cup Day!

 

[nobbyiscool]

only 5 units down after the Derby winner rescued me. didn't stay off for the rest of the day though. i'm still massively up this carnival after the last 2 weeks, so i thought i'd speck for some of the roughies that keep getting up today.

Got on that thing in syd at 14's, not sure if that's a good thing for you with the way Im travelling today.

 

[abs_of_STEELE]

Yeah not a good day at all! HMDYLM/Fawkner both winning would put me up though, Golden Archer winning would cut my losses.

Oh dear i was going to say the same thing for you!! lol

If i manage a collect with either of my last 2 bets i will a little over even on the day i reckon but i am not holding my breath!!

 

[FantasticShirt]

Ugh...terrible day

 

[Chism]

Fontelina just killed me. FFS.

 

[Selective Retention]

Squeeze at the start cost it.

 

[FantasticShirt]

Hah....****

 

[PieBeast]

#3 $257k
#4 $126k
#5 $133k
#7 $339k
#8 $322k

[FantasticShirt]

So...thoughts on the Stewards letting it run now??

 

[Chism]

Down to my last bet now.

Eminent Domain in NSW at 5:30pm.

Been a prick of a day and can't believe that cat Fontelina just cost me a nice Quinella. You take on the 2 favourites and then a 15-1 cat runs the race of it's life to beat me.

Time to get tea ready and turn this crap off!! Grrr Derby Day.

 

[HurricaneHazza]

so.. the last race.. get out stakes.. who's going to win it? lol

Go your favourite colour or throw a dart at a board i think!!!

 

[HurlsMeister18]

I'm going to salvage something from the wreck with

BALKUIN for the win @ $4.80 in race 7 at Eagle Farm with TEN SECONDS to run a place and at ASCOT in the next UNCLE GEORGE looks good value at $4.00.

Really confident with BALKUIN though and think he will be really tough to run down today after an unlucky 2nd at his last run when BESEECH ran him down who has since won a race.

Generally the stupider they are the better they ride.

Almost anyone who has a smidge of intelligence can't get over the fear factor.


Horror day.
