Playing Australia tonight?
Well okay I'm not, not tonight, but figured we needed a new thread for the new year and besides.... had to post the barrier draw for Saturday!
Can't wait.  http://www.racingandsports.com.au/en...gID=37851&pp=1 http://www.smh.com.au/sport/horserac...107-30ein.html

In the Guineas I think I'm going to use Bring a Ring
 on top of the favorites (Sweet Idea, Enquare, Weinholt).Still looking at the Classic but I think Unencumbered is beatable. I'm looking at Oakleigh Girl who I'd imagine will be a low odds (3rd favorite after Invisible?) but also at Celestial Dragon (that would make a great rags to riches story if he won ), Stroak and Divine Service.Still pondering the rest of the card... Good luck if you're playing tonight. Last edited by my miss storm cat : 01-10-2014 at 01:45 PM.

I was going to sit out the first at Randwick cause of the highly anticipated debut of Rubick but instead think I will play the filly Twirl to beat him.
Keeping it simple with straight win bets: (Sorry for merely listing the race # and not the proper names) R2 - Harry Hotspur R3 - Mr. Scary R4 - Vilanova I'm Imposing in the Cup (R6) (Brigantin and Travolta are both beatable) R7 - Recoinage I think it'll be a pretty chalky day at Caulfield (Iconic, Quick Snitzel) but will try to beat Limes in the 6th (looking at Gondokoro). Silk Pins in R1 (my one concession to sentimentality) R5 - Spirits Dance R8 - Instrumentalist Good luck to the older gents, Mr. Slick and Jungle Heat, in the 4th at Eagle Farm and to anyone playing tonight.

Sucked for the most part.... Twirl a nice 2nd to Rubick who lived up to the hype and the filly Create seems to be okay which is always good news.
Thanks Spirits Dance for saving my ass (Instrumentalist won as well). Had the wrong longshot over Limes... Aus C Caulfield 1 4 Spirits Dance $31.60 $12.90 $3.60 2 5 Whistle Baby - $4.60 $2.70 3 6 Orvieto - - $2.10 4 9 Just Too Hard - - - Aus C Caulfield #8 Race #8 11:38pm POS # Horse Win Place Show 1 6 Instrumentalist $7.70 $4.40 $4.20 2 13 Magnapal - $6.20 $5.50 3 10 Reigning - - $4.60 4 8 Altonio

Damien Browne picks up the mount on Earthquake (Blue Diamond Fillies Prelude) after Kerrin McEvoy is forced to pass due to injury (meanwhile Damien Oliver had been on standby but took another mount yesterday assuming Mc Evoy would ride. Doh!).
Earthquake and Eloping... can't wait. (... and, of course, Polanski, who is cross entered. I'd imagine Robbie Laing will go for it and run him in the Orr. I love this horse). http://www.racingandsports.com.au/en...gID=38643&pp=1

Playing God injured and out (retired) and now it's looking like Sertorius might be scratched because of the extreme heat.
Too bad... Big fan of Hawkspur and I do like Foreteller but looking elsewhere... NOT looking for a longshot and I wish I'd stop thinking of using him... someone quick talk me out of using Finishing Card. (not in the same league BUT I look at his form and keep thinking hmmm why couldn't he jump up (?) and, since I have no strong feelings for Moment of Change, Shamus Award or Eurozone, I might go there afterall ).Of course IF Sertorious stays in that changes things. Cannot wait for Polanski who is my lock of the day (moreso than Rubick or Earthquake). Trying to figure out who to use in the Prelude.. Chivalry and Nostradamus are looking really good BUT are drawn so wide... looking at Duckworth right now. Anyone playing tomorrow night? Cardus? Ed? Moodwalker? Dagolfer?

Ok, I'm ruling out the deeper closers in this race.
(7) Shamus Award (5) Sertorius (3) Moment of Change I wouldn't dissuade you from using the (6), however class wise doesn't fit and last effort was a huge jump up from other efforts. Sertorius looks like price play, maybe exacta keying with 3 or 7. In other news.......I will be trying to find some hidden nuggets in some of the other huge-field races, but it will be a real-time kinda deal so maybe a little late night play-along action

The odds on tvg are, well... it will be interesting to see what happens tonight but I guess I'll go with Hawkspur in the top spot and, depending on his odds (cause he's at 8/1 now? Okaaaay
), do a very small w/p on FC. Not very confident but oh well.* * * edit - Okay tonight is just not happening for me right now. Good luck, dagolfer!
