All The Aces Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) Te Akau lined up five hot favourites today and they all got well and truly trounced. Prismatic and Sans Doute at Hawera along with Dynastic, Stella Splendida and Imperatriz at Matamata. You don't see that very often. And Opie would have opened up a very hot favourite to win the jockeys competition at Matamata with twelve rides and ended up with a win a second and two thirds. Go figure.

If you could Sheik Mohammed or whatever his name is would have everything and we wouldn't have a racing game. I imagine TA will be back and good on them when they are 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there were a couple of other favs at Matamata as well. Handy winners of the two features I thought, might help them retain their status for a little longer.

Freda Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Yes, La Crique I thought impressive, showed a lovely action. Nice mare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Great leveller this game and strength in numbers isn't always the case. Imperatriz doesn't look like the same horse and maybe that first up win flattened her. La Crique is a freak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead set quinella of the year in the minor 3yo race I think, that didn't turn out too well. You are on a thrashing to nothing when you hand out $1.80 shots as certainties. The Aussies are no better of course. I thought that $2 shot in the Toorak was incredibly short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that $2 shot in the Toorak was incredibly short Caulfield Last 5 races yesterday were a Great Example. Yes, the racing show and blokes and broadcasters were patting themslves on the backs yesterday and getting extremely cocky as the 3 near Even money, heavily backed favourites went bang,bang,bang. and they had picked 3 winners in a row !! (doesn't happen often lol ) Paulele, Anamoe then Golden Mile, .... so then were saying their 'all ups' and 'Multis' were looking good with the 'best 2 horses' at even money still to come in the shape of I Wish i Win and Zapateo. (both unplaced by the expert 'mock' in the last 2 races ) back to the grindstone lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
