He is too busy and preoccupied at the moment, for the greater good. Top man. And likewise, I really hope the Spitfire gets up today. Connections deserve it badly, and it would be great to see him win, or even just fall in for third would be something. I won't be taking the very generous money of 7's on offer, but I will be at home yelling at the tv and belting my leg to help him get home. And do you think that will work😄? Quote

Happy and Dougie have tipped out a few on here in the past, and I have seriously ended up with a bruised thigh, trying to get them home. Every little bit of "encouragement" helps the horse. Quote

Happy Sunrise Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 19 minutes ago, mikeynz said: Maybe 3 or 5 for a win,2 or 3 for second 1 for third,what do ya reckon? Scoring in original post was 3 points for a win, 2 points for a second, 1 point for a third. Highest points scorer for the day, gets the bet. If there's a tie, the person with the most winners, if still a tie then most seconds and then again, if needed, most thirds. Quote

Got in early on Gil Favour and John James Preston and Art Collector for the place. 28 minutes ago, Dougie said: Will the inside be better later due to the grass being trampled all day or fresh grass out wide be the go. Inside all day in my book. 29 minutes ago, Dougie said: Just watched Thornley being interviewed on FB, says best chance is Neyveli Franco but only on best behaviour so that suggest more talented than Texas Tara but a bit of a nut job!! Oh dam. Oh well. Hope Texas gets third then. 1 Quote
Nowornever Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 Grass looks quite long. Dead track? Going to be some big divs I think Quote

Isn't it great to have a grass track that doesn't have one of those dodgy crossings where half the trotters gallop going over it whilst the driver gets airborne! 1 Quote

mikeynz Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 While lots like the country grass meetings it's likely that few of the big time punters would bother,these fields are so hard to work out,so in reality is this good for turnover or does the prospect of getting good divvieds inspire interest? 1 Quote
Dougie Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) If I backed Queen Of Straithfield I'd be pretty peeved at the lack of vigour from G O'Reilly. Edited September 13, 2020 by Dougie 1 Quote
Guest CrossCodes Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 I couldn’t believe how short Five Wise Men was in the first, the trainers haven’t had a trotter get around in one piece for years, it will win races no doubt but not in that stable unless Dunn can take it over. Quote
Chief Stipe Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 After Race 2. Postman two from two! Please check you points tally - lots of room for error in transcribing from posts to spreadsheet! Seems like there is only 20 minutes between races! 1 Quote

Do big time punters bet on the galloping grass tracks or are they waiting for the new all weather tracks? The biggest lottery on the grass is the Melbourne Cup. Quote
