@dashing - maybe baby ran on 17/1, 3rd to Keegan's Jet over the same distance. Drawn 1 today. Will take some of the 55/1 and 6.6/1 on offer. KJ in race 5 over the same distance.

Turffies... I backed it last time (and have included in larger accies today) but was also drawn 1 then and faded very badly

Thanks Frodo, hope you have as much possible success as the other day, did you back Chestnut?

Thanks for the kind words ACS, if they help just one person then it was worth the effort (win or lose) (tu) ... re MM, if it was running again on turf then it would be a potentially huge pointer but I try hard to keep all things turf away from all things sand :) Nothing says to me the horse will run well on sand, that does not mean it won't but I like a bigger price or at least a decent pointer to back a horse at that price first time on sand... if there was such a price movement today then it would have triggered interest but that is obviously not going to happen because its opened too short.

Just be careful today, with the rain yesterday it could affect the surface even though it is always stated as "standard". :S

Thanks Englander, Winning Form shows drawn 6 from 14 on the 17th. Saw the faded badly in straight. At the price it can't hurt though. Also from that race is Hobb's Flight #4 today in R2.

I would just like to say while I have the time, thank-you to ALL the people that take the time and effort to post their tips/comments.
Being a punter from the UK, I have become totally disillusioned with UK racing, where horses are priced up on form they showed, sometimes, seasons ago. If you play UK races, just take Wolverhampton evening meetings for example, there has been times recently where EVERY horse has shortened in the market. There just isn't any value anymore.
It's very refreshing and interesting learning how you guys look at races. I am hooked and would much rather play SA racing than the rubbish that we have here in the UK during the cold winter months.

On a funnier note, who is the guy that does the race commentaries at Arlington and Fairview. It's like a lottery whether he gets it right or not !! My favourite commentator by far, puts his whole heart and soul into every commentary... Fantastic!!

@Acswales.... u my hero... you at least recognise the fact that Dumpy, warts and all, treats commentary as a calling (pun intended) and not just a job (tu)
