Thomas, my syndicate bet Saturday - who is wearing the blinkers - who do I punt

Weir's runners, Humidor has Blinkers again and watch out! Kings Will Dream has Blinkers on FIRST TIME!

I'd be looking at Rostropovich top 3 or top 4 for odds compared to the likes of Winx myself. But fans of SC can get 5s to run top 3.

In the absence of a swift reply from Tommy TomTom. I predict he will answer as follows:

  • Look for horses that are dropping down in grade (mwahahaha)
  • Horses that are wearing blinkers first time will always beat horses that cant get used to them being on or off or on off
  • If you cant work out the winner in advance call TommyTomTom's private line 0900 4 TOMTOM ...after 7pm Sat nite
    (Calls cost $10 per minute, forgive the stammering receptionist, she's new and a real doll, apparently ...Princess is her name)

Mr T's busy trying to get a passport for his Princess, I hear they are heading for the Cox Plate. Due to the unusual circumstances, he has had to pay inflated prices for the tickets but the Princess is pumped and ready for a great time.

Cox Plate runner Kings Will Dream has been doing his work this week at the Warrnambool Beach in a bid to freshen up after running in the Caulfield Cup. Owner Brad @SpicerTbreds says all reports have been good and hopefully blinkers going on will do the job.

The thing about this blinker parameter is I can't see which horse you should pick based on it.  First time on or off?  Thomass says both.  Which horse on each race as there is often more than one?

For sure. I'm not in any way anti blinkers, but I can only see it benefiting a punter that believes they can see the relationship with the horse in question and how they see them helping that actual horse. And even then, it is going to be achieving something that even the best trainers can't work out since the vast majority don't achieve the trainer much at all. if someone has that skill, good on them. 

To arbitrarily state add 30% is just nuts.

Hey Mardi, I managed to get on Winx this morning and also got the tri, I imagine you did also using T's preferred method.

Yeah - the preferred method of backing them the next day works wonders.

Got such a fright with them on, sadly, he fractured his pelvis.

latest report is..surgery at Ballarat..24-72hrs to decide if he will survive or not. Fingers crossed for all concerned.
