M'l on Moment of Change is 4/5?

Yosei for me (Michelle Payne once said this was her favorite horse. Awww. ) in the Goodwood tonight.

4 mins till R1... going with the 1, Iconic, and a straight tri - 1/2/6.

(... and 5 across on Under the Eiffel @ Caulfield. That's it for tonight).

HUGE step up for Steps in Time this weekend. I'd imagine her odds will go even higher.

Worth a shot. I don't think she has ever let me down.

Is this Rangi's swansong? Every time he races I wonder that.

Stellar field... can't wait!

That was a really nice win @ Eagle Farm a couple of weeks ago but it seemed like it all went his way with Buffering missing the start and Sea Siren not handling the track. Of course I probably don't know what I'm talking about and he seems like a super nice horse... I just feel really iffy about him.

Epaulette, Rain Affair, BTR... lots of the same horses but add in Yosei, Quest for Peace, Manawanui (sp) et al seems like a much tougher field and no idea what the weather is but I won't be using him in the first two spots. (Unless the track is reeeally heavy).

Another thing is with the 15 hole... traditionally that's not a plus, right? 8 or lower or something like that (for this race...most of the time, anyway)?

Awesome to see Tim Clark have the Rangi mount (I know he's ridden him before but not lately).

Sticking with Steps in Time and will use Yosei, Sea Siren and either Buffering or Epaulette and then toss Rangi in at the bottom. Guess I'll use Your Song underneath as well.

So happy to see you here, Moodwalker.

Not sure how to play this. I keep trying to put together a tri and a super and having a hard time with such a big (and good!) field.

All I have so far is $20. w/p (Steps) and an exacta with Steps and Yosei over Steps, Yosei, Sea Siren, Epaulette, Rangi, BTR and Buffering.

I will use Your Song in the 3rd spot... just haven't figured it all out yet.

If he wins? You can tell everybody this is Your Song, Moodwalker.

(Good luck to Precedence in the following race who I will not be playing but who I love so much).

Sorry for the outburst but am sick to my stomach.

To update Epaulette won followed by Sea Siren and Buffering.

I did end up betting Precedence in that last race cause the last time I specifically said I wouldn't he did well.

He just won.

M/l was 20/1 but he went off at 11/1

More importantly though am just so completely and deeply sorry for Chris Waller.

Poor Rangi. Some days racing just ****ing sucks.

Wasn't playing tonight but I just took a look at the odds on Crystal Ruby in the 1st at Caulfield and might as well, just that one race. If she's anywhere near as good as her sister was...

Best of luck tonight if you're playing and wishing a safe trip home for all, especially the boys in the 7th at Doomben.

edit - Okay well have to play a few win bets... Rock Princess in the 5th, Elite Elle in the 6th and Cellarmaster in the final.

Wasn't planning on playing tonight BUT I just noticed that Thumbtacks is in R5 @ Flemington (m/l is 8/1) so have to play him to win.

Good luck if you're playing tonight.

Anyone playing Caulfield tonight?

I think I'm going with the filly, Elite Elle, in the Bletchingly...

I like Sea Lord and Mr. Make Believe a lot but Sea Lord never comes through for me (well he doesn't! He's turning in to another Linton) and Mr. Make Believe wasn't exactly stellar in his last 2 starts.

Second Effort is the only other one I was considering putting in the top spot but this I'll use him and the heavy favorite, Pago Rock, in the second spot and toss Zamorar in underneath.

My dilemma.... Veyron is one of my favorite horses but inmy heart of hearts I don't see him winning.

Problem is on paper I keep looking at him (and at Streama).

Love Rain Affair here and Nash onboard is even better but it's that barrier that troubles me.

Not sure what to make of GG being here and oh Metal Bender.. welcome back.

Have blown so much on Cent Park so am avoiding sorry to say...

WILL use Tremec and Hawkspur underneath so maybe something like a tri with...

Streama, Veyron / Rain Affair / Streama, Veyron, Foreteller, Tremec, Hawkspur

... with a win bet on either Veyron or Streama.

Lock of the day - Sacred Flyer in R1 but there will be no odds so forget it.

I like Vilanova in R5, crazy longshot Tom's Rocket in r6 for reasons beyond my control and Sizzling in the final (m/l is 7/1).

I am going to be sick because I am so stunned... was upset cause three different horses that I liked and didn't play won (that isn't redboarding if I didn't bet right?) BUT **** that I just won the most I've ever won on any single race.

Lest anyone forgets... the Memsie Stakes @ Caulfield tonight!

Can't wait to see Miracles of Life again although that race won't be worth playing.

I always seem to lose with Under The Eiffel so now that I won't be playing him tonight? Watch him win.

Good luck to Yosei (and Michelle). I have to play her to win no matter what (10/1 on the m/l; and she hasn't exactly been spectacular lately, but...).

Lots of nice names in R7 and that's the one, besides THE race, I want to try to hit. That one should have monstrous payouts.

Good luck if you're playing tonight.

(Ed, if you're around, is Mufhasa scratched from this as well?).
