Opinion Dogs and Horses - The Racing Thread

[grassman75]

There is a bloke up here on the Sunny Coast who does long range weather and financial markets. He’s a bit of a loose cannon, but he’s right more often than not - he follows cycles in the planets

He puts out his cup tips each year and this year he said anything with a 5 pointed star on the silks and the favs won’t run a place and the winner would be a 100/1 pop

4/6 over the line had the 5 pointed star on the silks and I boxed them up….Warp Speed had a bloody 5 pointed star on its cap…..

And to top it off the winner was a ****ing Sunshine Coast horse - should have had it just for the local factor

As another aside, it was definitely a day for omens - Ronan Keating sings, Irish jock wins. Second quaddie leg Carlton quinella…paid **** all in vic and Warnie went around in front of Liz Hurley and her son in the last

It's such a great game.

I've looked at the winners form and pedigree in retrospect, the opposition and their credentials, and even though I know it won I still wouldn't have found it. Not ever. TBH, I'm not sure how it made the field.

Handicaps!

Laxon and Symons are the trainers for the horses in my syndicate, so I had a little bet on Knights Choice My horse Winsome Star came second at the Valley on Friday and is in race 1 at Flemington on Saturday.

Buy Doge and/our BTC with anything you were about to plonk on the GG’s tomorrow. Expect Doge to hit $.50c AUD mark within 24 hours. BTC will get to $150k AUD within the week.

We all put in a big boxed First 4 for 15% having a pick each in the Cup. Someone, we didn’t work out who, picked the winner. Then we had 3rd, 4th, 5th and lots of other runners.

In my own first 4 I had Warp Speed, and 3rd, 4th, 5th and others.

Unfortunately the two bets didn’t meet and cross pollinate
Doesn’t matter, it only paid $732k. It’s only money.

One person backed the Cup winner. Another backed Garachico at massive odds.
Both are regular punters, not once a year novices. Still don’t know how they found them though.

By the way, how would you be backing the Catoggio & Bosustow quinella.
$38.10 I would have been livid if I had it.

How many times do you have a bet and you get first or second and then find out your mate went the other one….and you both missed the tri

Most of you have probably read this, but what about the family of 4 who have 1 bet every year - $100 on the Melb Cup

They each pick out 1 horse and take a first 4.

This is the year they jagged it and were elated with a $800k pay out, not realising they actually had over 400% of it, for a $3.2 million payout.

I had on ok day Cup day. Bombed the Cup but really liked Fancify who got me in front.

Keen on Harlem Queen in the Oaks today, that Spring Champion form reads well and the $6 looks nice.

Anyone had a look at Saturday? Those 3 Champions races are seriously stacked.

Reckon the VRC need to promote this day harder. Becoming the best race day of the year in terms of quality.

Since no ne tipped anything here on Tuesday and i landed the Kyneton quaddie yesterday, I’ll put my balls on the line for today. Tips not in any order, just 3 or 4 trifecta selections - done pre scratching and market movers

R1 1,2,5,11
R2 1,2,4 (Spacewalk owes me this carnival, seems the outside are doing better in the straight races, so I’ll prob go again
R3 1,11,13 (flamin Romans good odds and the roughie Verifier)
R4 1,4,5 and throw in 2 - the snowdens always pull a surprise at odds at the carnival
R5 3,8,9,13
R6 4,5,12,14
R7 No tri here but playing with 5,6,7,11,16 - tough race, could be some good value
R8 Been on the 3 since before the carnival started and like the 2. Add what you like…Hurry Curry could be over the odds after being scratched on Sat after breaking Kah’s nose at the gates
R9 1,2,9,11 and roughie 14 just because of its name and its trainer is called Smiley FFS

No promises, these are just my guesses

It's my fav day of the 4 and the only one I tend to go to now. WFA racing is my thing and to have 1200, 1600 and 2000m at the elite level on the same day is just brilliant. The best horses at the best track vying for the champs title.

I kinda hope they don't promote it too much coz I've been able to buy a beer with relative ease, find a viewing spot at the mounting yard/parade ring and sometimes a table.
