I wonder if I’ll have my usual panic about not being able to receive Radio Sport 927 0n the night [it always happens and then someone rescues me with a link of some kind].Moe I hope this link is still the right one, there are 2 guys who have been on the past couple
of years that have had me in stitches, their patter is hilarious. I’ve checked the link and it
still works, so hopefully this should have you tuned in on the big day

October 23, 2018 at 15:11 #1378477Just need to sign up ( free ), log in and press watch live.
October 23, 2018 at 16:49 #1378487Cheers for that botchy. I’ve got ATR and I think it’s shown live on that too, but if the last
few years are anything to go by, I’ll be listening to the live coverage on the channel I linked
above, and maybe watch it if I’m not lying in bed with my earphones in so as not to disturb MrsG,
although she certainly heard me cursing Frankie getting beaten by the 100/1 rag 3 years back
The Ozzie crack with the 2 guys who do this (I hope it’s still them) is priceless

Aye, horrendous night that one G. No idea what it sounded like on the radio, but it was a long slow walk up the stairs back to the pit that night for me . Not Frankie’s greatest day that one.
October 24, 2018 at 10:52 #1378519Thanks; unusual for me to be so prepared early on; wish I could do the same with the rest of my life! Will try the links tonight….
October 25, 2018 at 07:56 #1378589Latrobe misses the race FFS
Top weight Humidor out also
Add no. 18 Egg Tart to thatOctober 25, 2018 at 11:09 #1378602It’s a big disappointment Botchy, and
a double blow for me with Withold also ruled out.October 26, 2018 at 19:56 #1378690Radio link seems to be working, although I have had to listen to a lot of scary stuff about poisonous spiders. Hope to wake up in time to listen to the Cox Plate…
October 27, 2018 at 07:19 #1378755Thanks for the link, botchy; was great to be able to watch Winx win! Although I was a bag of nerves watching it!
October 27, 2018 at 07:27 #1378756She’s got some gears. Aussies happy. Lots of shrimps being flung on the barbie tonight

October 31, 2018 at 14:11 #1379133Can’t see past Cross Counter here if he’s not been affected too much from his leg cut.
November 1, 2018 at 15:25 #1379217Has Nakeeta got in?
November 1, 2018 at 15:49 #1379219Prince of Aran runs in the Lexus Stakes on Saturday – if he wins he gets into the Cup.
Doesn’t look like Nakeeta will get in.
November 4, 2018 at 19:25 #1379720Think Godolphin hold the key and will probably end up backing their 3, but Avilius is my main hope, has a similar profile to Almandin coming from France originally.
