    Saturday in Australia.

    Once again Saturday is a mega busy day and try as I may I have only managed to reduce my numbers to 8 selections of which they all have a sprinkling of magic dust which I hope may prove profitable after all the work undertaken to find them.

    Ascot
    R6 – SUPERSTORM @ SP . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . WON

    Morphetville
    +R8 – HASTA LA WAR @ 13/10 . . . . . . . . . . 2nd

    Flemington
    R5 – ALLIGATOR BLOOD @ 11/10 . . . . . . . . WON
    R7 – NATURE STRIP @ SP

    Eagle Farm
    R1 – ROTHFIRE @ SP. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . WON

    Bendigo
    +R3 – SHARLIE @ 8/5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2nd

    Toowoomba
    R1 – RAPIDO GRIS @ 12/5
    R4 – CHRISTMAS CREEK @ 13/5. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .WON

    +As I have already said each selection has a sprinkle of magic dust and therefor I have loaded the stake but SHARLIE checks out via both systems and so has the stake increased a little bit more. :-(

    +I have been waiting to see if I could get the last Duck in a Row and now know HASTA LA WAR is the HYPE HORSE and so has a stake increase. :-(

    I am suffering a severe case of dizziness by doing too many cartwheels whilst covered in magic dust and yet again I find a super selection with all the ducks lined up in a row ticking box after box after box. How can I not fill my boots?

    Lingfield – 3.45 EL GHAZWANI @ 5/4 . . . . WON [20p R4]

    At the very same meeting 2.00 DUBLIN PHARAOH @ 11/8 looks almost as interesting. . WON

    Very kind words MrE.

    Who would have thought 13 winners from 15 selections in 10 days for an experimental system (2 were not backed) but nevertheless equals an 86% strike rate. The prices will never set the world alight but they can add up :yahoo:

    No storm Dennis down there in Australia and so I will content myself with some Antipodean sunshine: –

    Werribee
    +R3 – CLIFFSINGER @ 5/4 . . . . . . . . . .. . 3rd

    Albany
    R2 – NURHACI @ 7/4 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2nd
    R4 – MOOD GODDESS @ 21/20 . . . . . . . . 2nd

    +CLIFFSINGER would be my nap should I have to nominate one but they are all looking to be there or there about.

    UK Domestic selections – stick or twist? I am concerned about Storm Dennis, I am told horses don’t like racing in the wind and so the 3 at Kempton: – CLOG MAKER – ENTANGLING – KINGS ADVICE will not be bet by myself but if they do race I hope they go on to win.

    No so Nathan my lovely run has just ended with a magnificent crash. These things happen, 2 x 2nd & 3rd which still indicates they were worthy of support and now I am back in the red!

    Monday in Oz provides me without any selections.

    How sickening it is when selections dry up, not only in Australia but now I find, or should I say, don’t find, the same fate for my domestic system. No punting for me tomorrow, Monday.

    Any suggestions for what I can or should be doing to fill the void.

    Summertime in Australia can be just as difficult as our own but perhaps in different ways. Once again I am in the position of having NO SELECTIONS for TUESDAY but this is because of the self imposed filters.

    All four meetings are declared as COUNTRY! but looking at the conditions which must be tiresome for the animals: –
    WARWICK – Queensland – 32 degrees & Heavy.
    COFFS HARBOUR – NSW – 29 degrees & Heavy
    MUSWELLBROOK – NSW – 33 degrees & Heavy
    BENALLA – Victoria – 28 degrees

    Only WARWICK is expecting to escape the forecast THUNDERSTORMS.

    Maybe our summertime is not so bad after all.

    Coooeeee!!! my little Tinker Bell, I hope your looking after Peter Pan (Matron) and keeping him away from the evil Captain Hook (Nathan, of course)…..
    The weather (and racing) has been rather dire of late and I can’t say that I’m in a hurry to get back to it…. what a load of old rubbish it is, both sides of the world….. gotta keep the old grey matter active during this spell of the doldrums and I’m hoping I have found a couple that might be worthy of your 50p pocket money, take a look at….

    3.25 Carl… Jobsonfire…. WON
    4.45 Ling… Yukon Mission…. RUBBISH

    only 50p mind, just something to play with on a pretty poor day…..
    :wacko: :wacko:

    ONLY 50p!

    That is a large percentage of my pocket money MrE.

    On a more serious note such quiet times does create the opportunity to resolve ones discipline when we can prove we have the ability to wait for the right one(s) and not go chasing just any old bet.

    Can I do it?

    Yes I can!

    My dictionary does not have the word UNBACKABLE and so I must find another definition: –

    IMPOSSIBLE TO BACK!

    My frustration is bubbling away, simmering but not quite boiling over whilst I have to wait yet another day to find a domestic selection worthy of Billions Buck.

    I found a gilt edged horse running in the 6.30 at Southwell this evening, oh yes, a real Fill Your Boots type sprinkled with so much magic dust it could have been delivered in a lorry.

    ZAPPER CLASS but the best early price on offer is 2/7 and so for me it is unbackable or impossible to bet at that kind of price.

    Sad though it is I will wait another day.

    :-( :-( :-(

    R6 – EXCELLENT DREAM @ 15/8 . . . . . . . . . 3rd

    Doomben
    R3 – ZOOFARI @ 14/5 . . . . . . . . .NR

    Kensington/Randwick
    +R1 – CENTIMENTAL @ 6/4 . . . . . . . . . . . 2nd
    +R5 MUGATOO @ 8/5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .WON

    +Both selections at Sydney’s Randwick/Kensington tick one more box than Tycoon Storm leaving the remainder with a basic stake and so it is possible they may have been sprinkled with a little magic dust ;-)

    There are only 4 running in the race Nathan and best current price is 1/4, perhaps the bookies have there prices the wrong way round.

    I hope you get the result.
