    Nah, Tivers has told me he has one in the race that is a moral :P
    I'll probably have a place bet on my bloke if around $4. He's probably just about ready for the paddock. 3 trials and 2 races in his first prep.
    Nearly time to say goodby to your goolies champ! :crying:

    Impressive Racing v Ascot Bloodstock showdown in Race 2 :think:

    . VERY ROUGH SEAS and DANGEROUS SURF CONDITIONS
    . COASTAL EROSION and FLOODING OF LOW LYING COASTAL AREAS
    . SEVERE to EXTREME FIRE DANGERS
    . HEAVY RAINFALL south of the cyclone with possible LOCALISED FLOODING.

    Per the forecast tracking map, the cyclone would be centred just to the south of Pinjarra at 2.00pm, meaning winds would be W /NW'erly at that location (so slightly tail)

    (Downgraded to a Low by then though.............but they're only guessing ! :lol: )
