Racehorse TALK

Yeah dont worry we all come back.  Bounce back actually

I had an absolute nightmare on Saturday mate don't worry happens to best of us and to me alot more often 

Were they your only bets?

If so, good on you for not going on tilt and betting on other races.

Secondly, your horses are at good odds and what happened WILL happen again.

I think you should be more worried if they all finished down the track.

Just keep doing what you're doing. It will come good.  

The only thing that bothers me is the Elmore quinellas. Did you think there was extra value in the horses you coupled with Elmore? If not, you made a mistake. You need value in both selections to bet quinellas, if not you're better off sticking to a win bet or have a save for the place.

Took 2 quaddies yesterday--in Melbourne had Linton followed with the last 3 winners while in Perth had 3 winners and a second beaten a whisker 

I think Wenona is on the money here. All your selections were around the money which says that your analysis and process is good, you just need some luck (and don't we all).

Everyone has runs where they question what they do and the bests they make (including me over the last few weeks!!!), but if you record your bets and therefore know that you are going OK and your process is is good then believe in yourself - the results will come.

Go back to e/w betting for now maybe mate.

Thanks Wenona.
With the Elmore bet, whilst I had it on top I didn't have it  clearly on top and thought there were 4 stand outs in the race. So I boxed them up in a quinella. Not the wisest move in hindsight.

I did quit after the last race. Am fairly disciplined although don't worry - the thought did cross my mind to try and blast out.

Just one other thing - I thought Response was a good thing in the 3rd with Marveen and Delta Gee the clear 2nd and 3rd picks. I backed Response straight out @ $2.80 and backed Delta Gee the place. Of course Marveen gets scratched at the barrier crippling my win dividend and affecting the place dividend on Delta Gee.

And to make matters worse Delta Gee runs second with the quinella paying $7.60 which of course I would have taken if I had known Marveen was going to be scratched......

Yeh--your stiff---but it means your close to the Mark--keep plodding on.

Mark with a capital 'M' chuggers?

What are you implying - that I give him my mail

Yeh--clever you picked that up---there was a pun intended.  Nice work   

If you did, it would be AFTER the race         

Fasnet,

Mark is not "after the race" with me--he is good with Melb tips and I get them the night before.

You see---if you didn't stir him so much--all forumites would profit--I guess he is pissed off with comments similar to yours--so to yours and others are a  non-benefit.


Just my thoughts.

 

So--your thoughts now  ??
