Winter racing is taking its toll on punt drunks and Sydney Colt groupies. Last week our straight out bet ran 2nd while our place bet ran 4th. Bugger! Never mind while we lost a good chunk of our bankroll we are still winning $734 for 2012. Our confidence is still running high despite money lost. I’m happy to splurge on the strength of the mail today. Looking to the future I am already hearing some news about a few 2yo horses who will debut for the Waterhouse and O’Shea yards in early Spring.

Race 1 n2 NORZITA $175 win (BOBs) This neddy is on the way up. Impressive last time and I’m told has improved on the track since.

Race 3 n2 SHE’S A FOX $250 win (BOBs) Sydney Colt groupies won on this neddy last run when its sectionals were sensational. Has already been backed for a fortune in early markets so our return will not be too flash.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
