        The CliffsofMoher, another of Lloyd's runners, had a nice practice run in the Caulfield Stakes.

          Might need to change the name of this thread...seems people talking of their great tips once they have come in, instead of sharing before.

          Sheesh, hold out cnuts.

            Just watched the Guineas - wow.

            MacDonald was apologising for the ride after the race, three wide all the way and brained them. Superstar!

            People are saying best 3 yo in 10 years.

            Would love to see him in the Cox Plate, wonder if Waller will run him? :winking_face:

                Mate I usually place about 10 to 15 bets on a saturday. Usually need 5 or 6 to get up depending on odds to make a decent return. Happy to share my bets for the day each week but please dont expect to get rich

                    Did you play NZ or Aus races? I dont really bet on NZ races that much.

                    Aus was a pretty fair day, even at randwick where it was a bog.

                          that's me, especially on a day like Saturday.

                          There is a horse running around on smaller tracks called Stealthy Lucas that has now won 3 in a row, all at late-teens, and I've been on it each time. It was my best bet on Saturday. Had another at 11s, Redzel at 9s, and a couple of others at 5 or 6. That's enough to make a good day. Missed Blair House at 13s by a fucking nostril.

                          Don't know how i missed Yucatan considering the odds and all the guys on the Racing Channel picked it.

                          Picked up a couple yesterday as well over a couple of beers.

                            Yeah I got it from racing.com too.

                            Stumbled on one yesterday called Benall at Cranbourne. Was doing my form and it stood out in that it was an older BM71 horse racing in a BM70 and paying $201. Had won 5 races in the past incl a BM 78 just 3 starts back and run 2nd in a BM84 not long before. Took it $5 ew as you dont need much at those odds and it ran 3rd at $41 the place. Ran a beaut 3rd!

                                Spent the weekend trawling all the international runners' form (at least those who are at $51 or less on the NZ TAB market). As a result, I've decided the following:

                                • Muntahaa is a good place shot
                                • Red Verdon should give Ed Dunlop another shout for a competitive Melbourne Cup runner
                                • I was caught by Hamada's efforts in the UK, only to read on Saturday it fractured a leg in trackwork at Werribee and was later put down... so you can probably rule a line through it...
                                • Rostropovich could be the Aidan O'Brien pacemaker if it gets a start. Tends to lead in its races and gets keen early, but will probably be found out at a quicker pace.
                                • Idaho is working back to form after looking brilliant in the English spring before flattening out mid-year
                                • I was taken by Best Solution's run at Newmarket in July and he won in Germany in August. Might be my each-way money there as Godolphin looks to break its Melbourne Cup duck.

                                  i love futures and find them a good use of bonus bets that are about to expire. My early melb cup runners are:

                                  Avilius at $27
                                  CIiffs of moher at $29
                                  Magic circle at $24
                                  Muntahaha at $33
                                  Yucatan at $67
                                  Kings will dream at $21 (probably unlikely)
                                  Thomas Hobson at $67 (wont be running)

                                  Best result would be Yucatan as have 20 on it.

                                  Probably wont place a bet on the day on a particular runner but will chuck out a couple of exotic pics and try snag some value.

                                      Only got on sat morning after a mate told me to. Then didn’t notice it was racing until the race itself!

                                      Heard earlier today that yucatan would back up this weekend for the caulfield but just heard that plan has been pulled.

                                        Caulfield Cup tomorrow

                                        Been a fan of Kings Will Dream since early this year and have had a little play at it in the futures @ $31. Now at around $6 and drawn well. Has been set for this and think should do well.

                                        Youngstar a big danger. Looked great coming home behind winx a few weeks back.

                                        Also have a something of cliffs of moher as I really rate this horse.

                                        But now I'm getting keener and keener on Best Solution trained by Saeed Bin Suroor. Quality horse with a proven recond at distance. Will be interesting to see how it goes first up here but has a delivered after a break on most occasions. Has to lug the top weight but great value still at $16 and $4.50

                                        Realistically there are probably about 8 horses I could make a case for. Looks a great caulfeild cup
