@mariner4life so are these tips you get or just you looking at the odds and form?
odds, form, and a lot of hope.
Also helps if i am watching the coverage.
it sounds like skill, but i want to make it absolutely clear i don't really know what i am talking about and it's guesswork

Sweet, I bet $10 to win & place on Savaheat, my pick of the kiwibreds in the first at Flemington and he stormed home, paid handsomely helping me recover everything I lost Tuesday.
nice! good price alright

stunned!! Here I have been following your every post waiting for your expertise...only to find out you are just a bit more experienced at guessing than me

I want to wager on the only Kiwi in Race 2, but she’s a first-time starter who’s dropped from 20/1 down to 7/1 (probably b/c the punters see the “(NZ)” next to her name). Too short for my blood, ‘tho I may be tempted to drop a $2 WP ticket on her... She was a $500K purchase at Karaka this year.

i can't even call it educated guesswork.
It does mean i do really shit on days when favourites clean up. like every day in Cairns recently

I put 2$ to win & place on the Kiwi, was 17/1 at post, just nipped at the wire. Looks like a good horse, comms are talking him up. BAAQYAH (NZ)
[Update] Oooh, good. $15.30 for the place, I’ll take that every time!

Only two kiwis (2,10) in the third, I gotta keep riding this tiger but can’t be tooooo foolish, so I’ll do a $1 exacta box.
(Hooroo alert: I just noticed at least nine of these Race 3 starters are listed as greys; is this an all-grey race??)

@Salacious-Crumb yes, it's the greys race. Not great quality

Platinum Angel is a fucking good horse
