As much as I hate to say it, that was a great training effort bringing the horse back from 1500.
Or perhaps more likely as a front runner it has been at a bridge too far over longer distances at the bigger tracks at Group level?
There you go I had a bit each way.
Reite den Blitz is going around in the Bow Mistress on Friday night here in Hobbiton. Drawn the 3 which is nice. Her stablemate Thunberg should lead them out and hopefully she can get a nice slot just behind without fighting the fave which has drawn the 2. Plan would be to try to get front early in the straight and try to hang on. Tough ask though but she's usually pretty honest. Showing about $14 at the moment so is probably worth having a nibble to run a drum and you never know your luck in a small town...
The good horses are making their way back in preparation for autumn. Some good fllies in the Light Fingers, none better than perhaps the next star of the turf, the brilliant Espiosa. $1.55 is too short though so I've had something each way on Four Moves Ahead and Heresy at $13 and $34 respectively. Have had a fair whack on Lost And Running in r6 Randwick, and a bit on Forzanini at $16 r5 Caulfield. I like Behemoth with Kah onboard in the Orr.
Time for me to take a look then, especially starting the punting year with 50% over budget of bookies money, courtesy of Our Tiger Ash.
On our Ash,
Ive got a bet for you fellas. Bear with me.
Split the 50-1 on Barty French Open into Tigers Flag AND Barty Wimbledon into Tigers Flag.
Why you ask? We'll Ash is in the dusty slot. she's allowing you 25-1 on the tigers for the flag, and that is the kind of figure where you end up in the whitesundays on a cruising boat called 'Tigerland', with a custom margarita bar and oyster fridge.
1. Ash 2022 is Richmond 2019 - steely, focussed, twice as good as No.2
2. the 50's allow you to spread the spread the risk across Paris and London - your getting 25's on both.
3. Both Opens are decided before the AFL finals, so there's a decent chance you've got Tigers going at 25's, maybe even 50's.
4. If the Tigers finish top 4, and play in a Q final, you have a whole lot of room to hedge, provided they dont come up against a $1.20 rampaging opponent - theres gotta be some risk, or its theft, not punting.
All the best for the punting year fellas.
let the compound growth, begin.
* have to agree on the big behemoth.
4 from 6 at the distance,
3 from 6 at the track,
3 from 8 at the class,
3 from 7 2nd up.
pretty compelling set of numbers.
jeez the Apollo is a good field - lottery.
Probabeel should be up there, as such is 60% interest paid daily, against mares in the last at Caulfield

I was going to as well, missed the jump by a second. Oh well, I got Mumbai Jewel in R1 Randwick.
