Rough tips and other bets...

@mariner4life yeah drew carpark so not worth the trip to Ellerslie
-
Just reminded myself never to run a work sweepstake again. I'm out by $20, people who have had FIVE days to enter are asking today if they can enter (despite the draw being done yesterday), and people continually asked if they could pick their horse. No, it's a fucking sweepstake, you twats.

What's Winx paying?

happy i jumped on One More Try last night when it was still at $11.
It's going to be even more of a crap shoot today with the fucking weather.

Bad news, sportsbet has crashed
Good news, Pohutakawa!!
-
I got a Trifecta on R4, was a small boxed % bet, so got my money back from today.
-
Nothing on the cup. Nothing.
-
Got some money on Prince of Arran but everything else went to nutha... didn't even know Counter Culture or whatever it's called was in the race until it hit the front.
Cliffs of Moher has been put down after breaking down a few hundred metres into the race.....
-
I got Cross Counter in the office sweep...but nothing else.
Shame I got busy and forgot to bet on her at TAB as I usually do with my office pick

Broke down right in front of the grandstands.
-
Fuck. Off.
-
I'm slightly up. But i bet everywhere, at nothing less than $10, because beer
-
Went to the TAB at my lunch break to smash Cross Counter, but left my card at home and only had $20 in my wallet. But $240 in the hand is better than most of my previous Melbourne Cup punts.
-
@mariner4life yea Im up slightly, I've started playing the numbers game a bit more than I used to, so picking up the odd win here and there to cover my bets but every even nower and thener I get one which puts me into the good.
But I'm still smalltime, still only bet small, no more than $5 per bet, I had to put a trigger on my account as I accidentally did a boxed first 4 home a week or so back, but forgot to % it and it cost me quite a few more dollars than I like to lose - wouldnt have been regretting it if the horse that came 6th had finished 4th...

Hope you have collected it @infidel pre posting that. Seen people post barcodes before and then go to collect and someone has already collected it for them! Nice multi tho!
Ended up for a small bet of cross counter during the day (as posted above) which was a saver at best.
Not only did sportsbet shit itself, but ladbrokes too. I heard the NZ tab app wasnt handling things too well either
I was out at Ellerslie. Had a few winners but hell the amount of roughies that get up in NZ races is crazy compared to aus. Kinda grates ya when the $8 shot you picked out (based on form) to beat the fav does nicely but runs second to some $42 donkey who hasn't been in the top 3 last 8 starts and the once a year punter next to you had $50 each way on

Money is in the bank, always good to get a cheque from the TAB.
Good point re the bar code!
Great ride by McEvoy to win the race, huge finish.
Bowman weighed in 1kg overweight which may have cost him the race.

and they smacked him with a pretty decent ban as well.

They threw the book at Bowman, three charges and about a month holiday.
McEvoy also got a $3k fine for excessive whip use
