Tea Break Mugs Double

[stevecaution]

If all else fails in Racing you should never underestimate the power of the 11 O Clock Tea Break Mugs double.

The first leg of this revolutionary system is on Saturday at Meydan in the Golden Shaheen. Mind Your Biscuits is the horse and that’s all you need to know. The odds of reward are 7/2.

The second leg is a week later in the Australian Derby and our spicy contender here is Gingernuts and it must be an omen that he is also 7/2.

I am hoping both horses can Breakaway from the stalls well and run a Cracker of a race.

Golden Shaheen Mind Your Biscuits 7/2
Australian Derby Gingernuts 7/2

We should make a packet backing these

Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

Gingernuts looks the value selection.

I am concerned about the temperament of that horse and I am worried that, rather than me following the horse, he will start following me around.

I am hoping he doesn’t get Boxed In.

If only Jack Hobbs was called Jack Hobnobs, I would have stuck him in this and put the three horses on in a Twixie bet

If the double lands I am going to celebrate with a cup of Assam, because you can’t beat a nice Rich Tea, after a winner

Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

Never underestimate the power of the biscuit. That was a cakewalk

Well, should have put Jack Hobnobs in the bet after all.

Gingernuts is apparently a rags to riches story in the making, a gelding son of Ifraaj who was $40,000 to buy and has already earned over a million dollars.

The irony of another Seabiscuit perhaps.

Ironically for me, I gave up biscuits as a New Year Resolution.

Worse than me for puns, the Australian press are pondering if the Australian Derby will be a “Slam Dunk” for New Zealand horse Gingernuts?

I’ll need to watch it again but my first instinct was that Gingernuts was never put into the race today in the Australian Derby.

He sat near the back and then came with an almost Arazi like burst into a good position but the jockey never touched him once after that. He was pretty much motionless on the horse all the way to the line, a never nearer 4th. It looked seriously weird to me.

Of course the commentators never mentioned a thing, focusing, as they always do, sycophantically on the winner.

Seeing Wayne Lordan banned and Aidan O’Brien fined at Dundalk last night over the running of one of Ballydoyle’s horses (who was banned from running for 42 days and then watching the Australian race has me shaking my head here.

I’ll post the video when it is available. For now I just can’t believe the lack of effort from the saddle.

Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.
