Bit Of A Yarn

With NZ's best harness racing punter unavailable to give tips as he is currently out of the country in Europe trying to shake the TAB spies, I will throw one out there in race 2 tomorrow.

I still really like Flying Mandy (big performance after its break at Vegas) but is quite short in the FF from its draw so I will leave it tomorrow unless it is ignored on the tote. There are a few other handy types at short odds too (fancy that) but they are unreliable at the same time so I will go with DD's Super Stuart for the FF place at 4.40. Draws 2 on the second line and will enjoy the mobile and being out of the rush early on. 

I am pretty sure Flying Mandy and DDSS will win one soon enough.

I only have one tip. 

Good to see the interval between races is only 25 minutes or thereabouts. Well done. Whoever decided to do this, please if you can, keep doing it. It is a positive step to enhancing the oncourse experience for the patrons.

One bet for me tomorrow night

R3 A Delightful Act followed good build up with a very nice run behind the talented Louis Litt at Addington

Are we jumping in at the $2.90 final field price or holding fire, to see tote prices closer to start time?

I have already got a bit.on Final Field 

I priced it about where it is at  so I'm happy with FF. 

Saying that it is a very good maiden field.

I could be proved wrong and have been wrong before,once.

Hes Good value compared to the fav

Is there anything to read into with B Orange off Scorcha and back with Stickman (3 win horse)?

I might be over-thinking it. I just lose a bit of confidence with no Orange on and electing for another. Should fight out the quinella, but there's a lot of confidence around Overarm. Interesting race.

Not sure, as his manners are still touchy. My armchair is wondering if DDSS needs a big roomy grass track and long straight lines. After all, my armchair has trained a total of zero winners but it is a comfy armchair.

Does the whip rule count for your arm chair?

Whip is in the bedroom. Unlike the armchair, the bed has ridden many winners.

Did I just write that? Sorry, Chief. But I will assert my right to freedom of speech and all.

R1 Zulu Courage - interesting driver booking 

R4 Miss Moppet 

R7 Easy pickings 

R8 Ideal Rule 

R9 Tom Martin 

Gutsy call with Easy Pickings in that field Dougie. Hope you got some of that place money. Has always shown promise but very hard to pick.

We got another placing with Mega Pixels tonight. Very promising start to the season with our youngsters.

Odds were crazy, got 14's for the place in NSW, was always going to be close to the speed and over the short distance ... not a world beater but has ability.

Didn't realize the syndicate had trotters with the Hope's as well, keen to see how Matty will drive Monty on sunday, should be run at a fast pace but some serious trotters in that race.
