If I have win tickets, I'll dutch it with Zipping and Blue Monday (light win wager at long odds). Zipping on top in the triple, though Master O'Reilly looks spot on. At long odds, Tungsten Strike and Lazer Sharp -- if it's dead or slow -- will be ticket fillers. Purple Moon's Caulfield Cup run sets him well for tonight.

At shorter prices, I'm negative on Sirmione -- no way he is hitting the board -- and Princess Coup. I'm sire-centric, and could an Encosta De Lago get run 3200m?

A little more than fours hours out from an exciting, exciting night of racing!

Enjoy the Nation Stopper!

well good luck.

I might make a small wager or two just for fun. Mainly I just plan on taking it all in, and doing my part to spread the "Nation Stopping" to this country.
