    • yes I like Bet N Win. he has had one start here in Brisvegas and won too. so hope he can win for NZ.  well worth a saver by me. thanks for the tip.  Arcee Phoenix is a Victorian who has won 3 of his 5 starts this year , but all over Sprint distances. He's not a stayer and will get mugged in Brisbane. (in the final over distance, might win a heat though ? 🤔) Pete McMullen is a farrier himself and has GUS right.   Gus is NZ-bred Majestic Son so is a real ripper.  Last Winter GUS had a 10 start campaign , and bolted in 7 times including our Group2 Championship,  but broke the other 3 times 🙄. He won over the Interdom distance in the final by 4 lengths too. He is gunna be real tough to beat.   
    • Fate Awaits probably, and Leap To Fame definite yes but hard to see how they will beat Bet N Win or Arcee Phoenox on a leaders track in the trotters final
    • John Dunn has driven it now 6 times for three wins and three good runs from terrible draws  I remember an interview with Lionel Dobbs after the first of the Dunn wins where he said it was going too well for me to drive it so I thought I better put John on. I backed it on the premise he might be doing the same again. If the bookies were any good they would have had it sub 10.00 on opening just in case. The driver change alone without the background info should have made it sub 15.00 on opening.
    • Lambourn led them a merry dance in the Group One Epsom Derby (2,400m) to give Aidan O’Brien a record-extending 12th win in the English Classic on Saturday. Shunned by Coolmore’s stable jockey Ryan Moore, it was Wayne Lordan who got his moment in the sun, pushing the Australia galloper into the lead soon after the start. The pair turned into the straight with a three-length lead and never looked likely to surrender it, thundering down the Epsom straight to win by a very comfortable three and a...View the full article
    • haha someone should pay you $30 just to consider backing those 'one win per year' horses. 😆. good to see someone supporting them though but not hard to see why 90% of people punting on these things lose their money. I've got a special for you Mr Galah . you're a good judge who does know a good horse when you see one ,that is actually worth investing on.  100-1 Leap To Fame. you're a big chance. He won brilliantly last night yet again . burying them off starting off a 30m handicap over the short 2100m .  you're asking how do we get 100-1. ?   well I went along last night to see him go and Grant said he has the winner of the Rising Sun as well . FATE AWAITS. he won quite brilliantly last night too. ( and won this time last year in 1.50 as a 2 year-old) he is certainly the real deal. Our Best trainer driver here Pete McMullen also won with Fast trotter GUS. Gus waltzing away from them in a 2100m stand off 30m as well. Not an easy feat by any stretch of the imagination. Pete said he has him 'cherry ripe for the Interdominion'  trot home town advantage next month. Make no mistake, without the defending Champion The Locomotive nor Keayang Zahara attending this Interdom Trot , he is a huge chance. so there you go.  I've only put a tenner on so far to win 1000 but will likely take more. ( plus some Emma Stewart and the Janitor savers) Fate Awaits ($7.00 in the Rising Sun July5th) x GUS ($11.00 for the Interdomion trot Grand Final July 19th) into Leap To Fame  ( $1.30 for the Interdominion Pacers Grand Final July 19th)  7 x 11 x 1.3 = 100-1  riding on Leap To Fame . you won't get that everyday 😆. our winning Fate Awaits lol 😉💰  don't say I don't look after you  . better keep it quiet from the Brodster though 😉.
