Has Mailman / whatever name he uses now got a sign writing company? Spelling mistake, and all in capitals........ Coincidence or not???????
-
Horse is first up over an unsuitable distance, just hope he gets around safely and hits the line hard.

Thanks guys, I will get my private butler to organise transport

In race 5 Cris have the results as 1 12 8 6 5, whereas TAB have 1 12 6 5, which one is correct?
-
I see Luyckygray is nominated with Trevor Andrews as his trainer. Forgive me if this has been mentioned previously, been busy for a couple of weeks.
-
It's the uncertainty that attracts us all...... otherwise every result would be as predicted. What Mailman fails to take into consideration is that horses are not machines, just like some days when I wake up and don't feel as good as other days. Bar…

Came from about 8 lengths off the second last horse at one point in time. The stablemate Tower of Lohnro was ultra impressive in the last. Robbie Gulberti has started his training career in fine form. He has had 11 starters for 5 winners, and looks …

The documenmt doesn't give any explanation for horses transitioning from metro ratings to country ratings. Plain Lucky came to Broome as a m71, and was assessed as a c71. Dempsey came to Broome as a m74 and was assessed as a c78. Seize Control start…

Froome is like an open class horse going up against tried maiden gallopers..... he is simply in another class

Thanks Diva

There are plenty of horses with normal shoes on every meeting that don't win a race, so a bit hard to simply rule them out just because of bar shoes based on low level stats. What about percentage of bar shoe wearers that win (i.e. number of winners…

Bookielover, Diva posted on my behalf, so I will answer the questions. The ring up here is rooted, absolutely no money around, with Bookies lucky to hold $4-$5k a day. That's after any decent bet gets layed off next door. The problem with this is th…

Preux Chevalier was the best I saw. His win in the AG Hunter Cup (I think it was this race) was nothing short oif outstanding. Sat outside one of Vin Knights good horses and crossed him at the bell, went on to win by 30 - 40 metres.

Doesn't matter who was training it, it duly saluted as my best of the day yesterday. I went down to back it when it was $3, as I thought it was a $2.60 - $2.80 shot. When it drifted to $3.50 fixed I thought that will do me, and loaded up. By the tim…

I just watched some Albany trials from the Albany website, Rio you must be doing something wrong

Bookielover Broome is a tourist town, and as such there is no money around. Woodside were going to build a gas processing plant at James Price Point, which would have been great for the local economy, but that has now been shelved. The tree hugging …

There are 5 bookies in Broome for the season, with another 3 for Ladies Day and the Cup. Swindle lives in Broome, Ernie McCreed comes up from Esperance for the season, David "chicken and spaghetti" Poletti comes up from Geraldton for the season and…

The Derby meeting scheduled for next week has been postponed till June 29th (originally the Cup date). The Cup will now be on July 20th, originally a weekend off for the Broome / Derby season. Circumstances beyond the control of the committee. Whils…

Sorry Paulo8, missed your reply before, was too busy creating my countdown calander. Broome gets busy, but that is what makes the Cup such a good week. But believe me I am more than happy by the time my friends leave on the Sunday. If you are making…

Have hung up the pencil Falcon. Will be attending purely as a racegoer, beverage sampler and filly analyst..... might have the occassional investment as well.

5 sleeps to go.

Western Pago?

Sestich might have to ride Zamlight a few kilos over
-
I think I read on CRIS where he was granted permission to ride a kilo over on a couple of his rides. Good to see Andrew back riding again, he was the best local jockey in Geraldton when he was donning the silks regularly. He also cost me a truck …

My understanding is that even if you are paid in cash, that you are a deemed employee for all intensive purposes and as such should be covered by the relevant insurances. Wouldn't want to be the trainer in question. Condolences to all involved, espe…

For some reason or other the name Guest Appearance jumps into my head whenever I see a first start 2 year old start at odds on. Might have been trained by Ted Martinovich and I'm preety sure it started at $1.20 or even $1.10, or back in the day it w…

Got this emailed to me today, thought it was worth a post https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/417633_138292796343662_847664291_n.jpg The sad thing is, after listening to a couple of his interviews, I think it sums Warner's capab…

I'm a huge fan of Shorte, he had big shoes to fill and he does a great job. I personally like his voice and his down to earth / laid back approach. I think the mix they have works well, with big Wes alternating with Richie Bell. What you also have t…

I'm just filthy that the protest wasn't upheld, I had a nice collect coming my way on the 2nd horse. I didn't see the race but from where I was listening surely the result should have been upheld.... margin was a head, margin in my pocket was a coup…

The little birdy was right, however it only delivered just under half of the result I would have got if it had won at it's previous start at Northam when it was wide the trip, hung badly and ended up on the outside fence at Northam.
