Still figuring out how Leysy can spell Mystical Journey five different ways to bluff the organisers of the Spring Stable.
 
After a poor punting weekend for me (Dagny was hopeless... with apologies!) will push on. My stable for Spring

Bivouac
Cross Counter
Mystic Journey
Santa Ana Lane
Lyre
My Pendant

Great day at the 'G yesterday. One of the best games I have seen in a long time. Always nice to win those games, very satisfying.

Go Tigers

I reckon The Shitstain Eagle and The Everest should be 0 points.

neither are even group races are they?

your gig Bernie. its a great idea. gonna be fun with a stable full of premium horseflesh.

Ive booked Anthony Darminin to ride exclusively for me, but I will release him to ride MJ for Leysy.

Didn’t your fav girl win the All Star Mile?

I agree with your view that Gp 1s ought be worth more.

So how about I propose a couple of rules, subject to consensus from the Uncos:

Comp runs from this Saturday until Sandown Cup meeting.

Bets can be at all in odds if nommed before 11am Wednesday.

Pre post, odds by 7pm Friday or that time on the day prior to Raceday.

Otherwise SP.

If your horse is injured, think Nakeeta Jane, a replacement can be nommed.

Each Spring Stable is otherwise restricted to five with a separate nom for the Cup, after all I was once a Victorian! I still take off Cup Day.

Your bank is cumulative, that is to say, your horse run and loses, you’re down $50.

No each way, except in Group races. Blessed be Denmagic for running third in the Myer in 2016. My missus is still betting with the dough she won that day.

Double your winnings for all Gp 1s, the Easy option.

What are people’s thoughts about the NSW pop ups? I think there are consecutive $1m races over three weeks, even at the provincials. Obviously, trainers will set for these and one of your stable might opt for that. Have a look at the BM 68er from Cranbourne nommed for the Winx in Sydney on Saturday.

I’d suggest the Everest and Kosciusko get double, but I will defer to the majority view.

Thoughts please or acceptance.

sounds good to me. I was only joking about Sydneys Horses Got Talent events.

I want the $10m as much as the next cyber premium stable owner.

can I take the 36-1 all in on Stradivarius in The Cup?

Thanks for the prompt response mate.

If we get a seconder, then them’s the rules for our Spring Campaign.

And of course you can have your early Cup bet. Straight out or each way? Of course, no start, then you can nom another for the big gig on the first Tuesday.

Sydney Horses Got Talent, jeez you’re watching too much reality TV. Best you restrict yourself to Foxtel 503, 504 and 526 mate.

I don't know whether she'll start in the Cup, but I'm all in on her in the spring, got $51 in March for her to win the Cox Plate.

My stable includes:
Bivouac
Arcadia Queen
Castelvecchio
Libertini
Mystic Journey or whatever ET is having, with
Verry Elleegant an Oz for the Cup at $34

Keeping an eye on Prophets Thumb after today’s trial and should they land here Mustajeer and Rostropovich for the Cup.

I set up the spreadsheet.

I think there’s just four of us in the PRE Uncos Spring Stakes.

Ill have my $50 straight out on Stradivarius thanks Bernie.

The 36-1 on Sportsbet will do me.

Spanked Cross Counter the other day over 4000m.

All systems go for LSB? Not an overly strong field
 
Bernie, just been reading your post from Saturday night.............."And, don’t pee me off, you cannot back Waller 1, 2,3, !"

I've picked 3 Waller horses in my group, so in the spirit of the competition i'll drop two of them, Arcadia Queen, Enticing Star(Damn!!!, I've followed them closely in Wa and wish Waller wasn't now training them) and going to sack Castelvecchio on the back of his trial.

Veery Elleegant
Santa Ana Lane
Dawn Passage
Te Akau Shark
Dalasan

Mate, your stable is just that, your stable.

No need to turf one out for taking a literal interpretation of something I flippantly said when I was on the sauce on Saturday night.

You’ll notice I didn’t stipulate a restricted Waller clause when I subsequently put the “rules” up for acceptance by the Uncos.

So all good!

How do we get the other Uncos participating?
