curious

Sound like you are hanging out for it ...one more year though.

So what is your point?

Might like him even a bit more now though preferred at the 33/1 last week.

That was a gutsy win. I thought he was going to get run down but he wouldn't lie down. Augurs well for next month. And he had to do a bit early. Of the SH horses, I did think that was a pretty tidy run from the lightweight for 7th.

I have a good friend and colleague living with cancer that has recently had to resign from her job and move back to Oz to get the care and treatment she needed. Fortunately she had that option. We raced a horse together a few years back and not a racing person but very much a horse person, she pretty much rescued that horse which we never won a race with, sorted some issues and then she looked after its future life and career once we retired her from racing. She was pretty much assigned to palliative care here and could not even get the diagnostic care that was appropriate here. She has that now and treatment underway that fingers crossed has the cancer on the run with a further back up treatment option if that does not continue.

All I can say is that the process is a complete joke and if it proceeds on that basis, they'll get what they deserve. I'm having nothing more to do with it other than possibly an odd comment on here. Even P4P seems to have withdrawn.

Like Thommo's Princess you mean?

Mostly coal dust I think.

It's definitely made Sunday brunch more exciting and anticipatory .... even when I have to wait till Monday presumably due to more extensive Princess repairs.

Can you add that to the blue print Mardi?..three runs over a shorter distance and preferably a trial. Hadn't picked that up before as part of the plan. Insert other media

Obviously has no clue about the wagering industry and just wants temporary higher stakes for syndication purposes. Not very helpful in my view and no revenue based rationale for his arguments.

I can see that the remedial maths classes still aren't working.

That would work but you'd still need the selections to be determined before the race.

I think he's answered it numerous times barryb. You wait till it wins, even if that's several starts after the black type performance then you back it on the Sunday after it ran on the Saturday with 30% extra on if it had blinkers on first time. Quite a coup really.

Yeahhh... sigh. Can they not grasp that more customers = more costs just the same as more betting products. Unless those customers are willing to lose more than the smaller group whether or not spread over more betting products or events there's no net revenue result, and so far there is not.

You are not applying a critical aspect of the blue print. That is to wait until Sunday brunch to decide which of the 28 you backed on the previous Saturday. If you do, then you'll have results similar to Thommo, maybe better.

Good idea. I'm impressed that the lollipop was no longer when she got it back but not sure how she imagined that could have been a possibility. If she thinks that "any f'er who disagrees with her is a big liar...", then I suggest you try and teach her to take on board alternative opinions and facts and weigh them up before reaching her own conclusions. I realise though that since you are incapable of doing that yourself, it may be a difficult lesson for you to teach her. Perhaps get someone more rational to do so?

I was thinking that you guys complaining about the SI apprentices could get them to have a look at this ride. Easy you may say when you have the horse power but both her and Dezzie could do it this way as well so maybe they should also have a peak at this ride. Ezy pezy when you actually know how fast you are going. No slugs behind her on either occasion either.

Olgiata was her second dam. La Mer was out of her daughter La Balsa.

Maybe he understands Swahili better than English?

I was probably there for both of those. Memory failing!

Don't remember the Washdyke wonder winning at Levin though he may well have but the Copper Belt clashes remain legendary in my mind

The trainer was the mighty Syd Brown out of Woodville. Is that track on the close list?
