Going back a couple of years, I was asked by the Professor if I would be interested in providing race selections for Sydney racing. It seemed my reputation as a punt drunk was known by more than my wife and a few mates. The Professor thought it would be good to have an addition to the tipster ranks (note I didn’t use the word rivalry). I accepted the offer but on 1 proviso, the tips I would be giving are a compilation of mail I gather from those who either punt for a living or sell information/ratings/track work etc for a living. You see, the truth of the matter is, even in a life and death situation, I am incapable of backing a winner of my own picking. Like those who ring me on a Saturday or those who may glance at the Sydney Colt’s posts on this site, I punt on the information and expertise of others.

Sydney Colts Mail For Rosehill 19 June
I have sore fingers from ringing around the traps this morning but alas there is virtually NO strong leads whatsoever. Hence the suggestions below are purely for the punt drunks!
Race 4 n11 Forward Love e/w ($6) The only mail I have is this neddy has been working well and is on a quick backup.
Race 7 n 6 Eripsni ($14) and n 7 Handsupfordetroit ($10). The only whisper I could come up with was a pro punter is backing both of these with Sportsbet.com.au where he will take best of the 3 totes or SP which ever pays higher. I will have a penny on these. If you bet on a 1 state TAB you have no respect for money!
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Saturday 12 June: Mail In 3 States
We cannot ignore the strong leads in 3 States on Saturday. The mail is primed to make us a profit and back on a diet of lobster.
SYD r2 n4 HALLEYS This neddy was scratched last week because it is absolutely flying on the track & they didn’t want to chance their money in the wet. If it lives up to track work it will be saluting.
MELB r2 n3 ANNIVERSARY My mail from a ratings expert says Gai has well and truly beaten the handicapper by taken this neddy south. The rest is up to the horse. Big money has already gone on with corporate bookies
BRIS r4 n15 RINGA RINGA ROSIE a pocket full of $100 notes after this one wins. Anyone who follows me on Twitter knows I have been waiting 2 weeks for this one. Set for this 1 race. Climb on the bandwagon.
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Sydney Colt's Hot Mail For Eagle Farm June 5
With the Sydney track awash I have resorted to begging for more hot mail from up north where we have had some excellent carnival mail so far. Only 1 bet again.
Bris r1 n13 KEFFIYA e/w ($6.0) This 5yo Kiwi mare has been in the smart hands of Gerald Ryan and steps up to a most suitable journey. Barrier 19 is a minus but this neddy on ratings is a dead set must bet. Taken e/w is the safe option and is recommended. $7.0 was on offer at IAS before the pro punters stepped in and attacked. Now $5.5 at IAS but $6 still available at Betchoice and Sportsbet.
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
Gelding's tips for 5 June 2010
This free and easy life between jobs has given the Gelding far more time than usual to look through the fields. That good a life is it, that the role of ‘professional punter’ could be in the winds. The bets are far and wide both in and out of Australia with some feature races at Epsom (UK) and Belmont (USA).
As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.
Flemington tomorrow:
Race 1 Horse 1 – Liveandletdie
Race 2 Horse 7 – Belgietto
Race 3 Horse 4 – Sunday Rose (for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 4 Horse 5 – Oak Heart
Race 5 Horse 10 – Elusive Touch (also for the girls at the Tennis club)
Some other big Races on the weekend and the tips are:
Queensland Oaks Race 7 Horse 3 – Dariana
English Derby – Jan Vermeer (sounds like a person we used to know) for Aidan O’Brien and Johnny Murtagh.
Belmont Stakes – Ice Box
Good luck & good punting,

Sydney Colt's Mail For Sat 29 May
With the track very heavy in Sydney there is little mail to help us BUT we have a strong lead from 2 Pro Punters betting up in Bris.
BRIS race 8 n 5 AHDASHIM. This neddy beat a real good one in Pinwheel last start. I am
reliably informed the ratings have this off the map. Pros took the $3.6 early. I grabbed $3.2
and it is now at $2.9. No other bets.
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
The Gelding's tips for 29 May 2010
As the Gelding is between jobs at present, he has been scouring the form guides for value at at Moonee Valley tomorrow, but it seems like a very hard day to pick a winner! The threatening weather also does not help.
As always the tips are on an each way and all up basis.
At the moment the tips are:
Race 2 Horse 1 – Our Baby Bonus (for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 6 Horse 7 – Eight Bills (also for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 8 Horse 5 – Altitude
Good luck and good punting!!

Sat 15 May and We Are Headed North Again
The mail was spot on last week with our 1 bet winning with absolute ease after being backed in the ring from $3.2 to $2.8. Stick with the good oil from a pro punter who has been betting up big all week on one in Bris today.
Bris Race 2 n 10 Albertinelli e/w ($4.8) Still showing this price this morning for the Clarry Conners trained, Jimmy Byrne ride. Up from Syd where it had good form against superior company than meeting today. This neddy was tipped to me early this week and my sources have confirmed the mail. One pro punter has backed it several times. I’ve jumped on e/w and suggest you do also. The mail is very strong with the danger being barrier 14! No other worthwhile mail to tip to you.
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
