Why you speak about thees epol so early thees morrning, re malaka.
We shpeek jus now, pa.

In terms of value at time of posting:

Aussies Captain
Biscay.

No value- but fun:

Arabian Mist - No value but worth watching.
Robyn's Luck - Hopeful midst desperation.
Brother Bear - Could shade triple isle.

Racehorses widdle away up to 20pounds in a pre-race pee, so whats 0.5Kg of lead to us?

Nice post, whoisu.

Agree with Biscay as a nice value bet.

I believe Robyn's Luck and probably Brother Bear will get beat today while Arabian Mist should be the business but no value.

Some additional thoughts and fancies :

Race 1, Wishing the gajima crew well with Dominika. Fancy Solfatara to go close at a big price while Inxs, having her 3rd run up here after a rest could improve enough to win in a moderate field.

Race 2, Arabian Mist looks hard to oppose but at these odds will be watching only.
Interesting runner is the 4yr old Joshua Dancer colt, Fanatabulastic, making his debut. Trainer, W.H.Mawing, previous trainer, W.H.Mawing (Apr08) ?

Race 3, Penny Black to beat Robyn's Luck, roughie, Solar Flaire

Race 4, The consistent Brother Bear can get beat by the new grecko recruit, Regal Runner and/or the improved Port of York, who ran a cracker behind the sprint king, JJ.

Race 5, Nothing between Announce Speed and Heraldic Seal but the former might just have the edge. Value, Eastern Flame while Picadilly Miss has shown promise and could be under-rated.

Race 6, Biscay for mac should just about win this. Lady Caesour should relish the trip.

Race 7, Mat Gold, my best bet of the day. Help ... !

Race 8, Southern Summer could upstage the much-vaunted Baraloche while Showroom continues to improve.

Race 9, Fancy Mystic and Halie's Sword. Will need to add a few in the pick 6.

Race 10, The well-bred Auberge has attracted betting support on a couple of ocassions but has disappointed. Roughie, Yuletide and keep an eye on the Trilogy horse, Shiyabekhala, who was strongly supported last time out.

Ouzo to the clan with runners.

Happy punting.

Morning Cuckoo

Hows some help for a top bet today ?

Thank you,

First race too close: La Noblesse, Dominika, Double Entendre and Inxs.....so just watching.

Robyn's luck don't have any, probably beat by anything -- but they're hoping, Again!

make nothing between triple isle and brother bear, hoping the winner though has a little more left, so let them fight out, with my bucks on "the little green bottle".

Yes Biscay would have no excuses in defeat, Space Jewel right there.

Ithala and Mat Gold too close for my money.

If we had to bite the bullet on the last, would go with Showroom by about 2 lengths, but we prefer steak - not bullets.

Signature:

How much did your selection weigh last time --- more or less than his impost advantage today?

Well my 'EL' of a single bet is: BISCAY - Ouzo Mac

With the 'newcomer' Fanatabulastic, as an E/W Dbl!

I also think that the opening couple of fav's look very hard to beat - but offer no value, so I'll leave them be.

All the best Gents, Jim.

R1 La Noblesse ( Field Gate )
R2 Bernies Pride
R3 Penny black ( Rawlapindi Express)

Solfatara nice roughie in race 1.

Hey Monty, I like your thinking on Bernies Pride, the fav too short and drawn on the wrong side of the track imo

Race 3, Penny Black, roughie Solar Flaire
Race 4, Regal Runner and Port of York
Race 5, Announce Speed from Heraldic Seal. Roughie, Eastern Flame.
Race 6, Biscay
Race 7, Mat Gold
Race 8, Southern Summer
Race 9, Mystic and Halie's Sword
Race 10, Auberge and Yuletide

Don't suppose anybody knows anything about Marwings first timer in R2...?
