Late SCR of #1 Star of Kitaplpha from the Super Hi-5 C/O 9th at CD.. Yeesh.

Steve,

Your picks led me to include the 3 in the last at Churchill which helped me hit the Pic 5. (i know i'm redboarding) Anyways really was only looking at the 2-6-9 originally in that race. Wouldn't have had the winner without you. Much appreciated!!!! (-:

Mike..

That's great! Congrats and pleased to have helped. Thought the key to the thing was identifying C P Hath a Way and ignoring the top slot chances of the aptly named Money Grabber trying turf first time with zero breeding for it. The late SCR bollocksed things up a bit, but if you scurried, a 2x2x1xAllxAll was just $80 at that point. $1,000 return was very solid and I bet this event gets some people into the Hi-5 pools. Hope everyone did well yesterday.
