God bless Gai who gave us 3 wins from as many bets last week. I enjoyed the fill-up and we have more mail from Gai’s stable this week.

Race 1 n2 ZUTARA I’m informed his neddy has been flying on the track for Gai and is ready for a 1st up win. Worth following through the Spring over longer trips.

Race 4 n2  DECISION TIME It is ‘D Day’ for the this galloper who has been disappointing this time in. Our ratings man says on his numbers it must be backed.

Race 5 n3 HERCULIAN PRINCE Gai has big plans for this neddy. If it runs up to the raps it will be beating this lot.

Race 6 n4 MORE JOYOUS The clock watchers were amazed with the sectional times this girl reeled off when a 1st up winner for us. With luck from the barrier she will put on a repeat performance.

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

There is nothing better than turning a profit on the GGs in the Spring time. With some assistance from Gai we should sneak home with some beer money.

r2 n4 KISS FROM A ROSE Very strong mail says Gai has this ready 1st up.

r3 n8 HOW MUCH MY LOVE e/w Has been off the scene for 2 months after a set back in Bris at a time when they were set for a major kill. Gambling they still want to cash in here. Good fresh horse.

r4 n2 MORE STRAWBERRIES Happy to accept the mail which says Gai’s neddy can upset the hot fav. This is an exciting horse.

r5 n1 Theseo This neddy has improved significantly since its 1st up assignment and is a noted 2nd up horse.

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

It’s my birthday today and hopefully it will be the corporate bookies providing the presents. I’ll be sharing a great day with some fellow punt drunks. There are some class gallopers back racing today and Spring is just around the corner.

r2 n4 CLOTHING Has a great 1st up record and I’m told has trialled superbly.

r3 n6 LEGSMAN The word from the track this morning is that this neddy has improved significantly since its last start when beaten a lip.

r6 n4 MASQUERADER Stevie Wonder couldn’t have missed this neddy’s last start 2nd. Improves at the weights and distance. The corporate bookies did let us on early at $4.8. Sensational value.

r7 n1 MORE JOYOUS There is no more classier galloper going around in Sydney today. Gai has this beautiful mare primed for a 1st up kill. The only danger is whether she jumps cleanly.

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

As predicted last week we sneaked a small win. I hope you learned a lesson and bet with the corporate bookies in lieu of your local TAB. If not, you have no respect for money. Today’s mail is not strong. Take care with small bets only today.

r1 n2 TROMSO The shortest priced nag going around in Sydney today and hence not much value. I will be saving my stake with a place bet on Gai’s New Day Rising

r3 n2 RAIHANA Not too much known about this one but a definite tip direct from the track this morning for the David Payne trained neddy with Bowman steering.

r7 n3 DECISION TIME  I am told this neddy has been jumping out of its skin since the 1st up run 2 weeks ago. Keep the faith.

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

We turned a small profit last week and I expect we may do the same today. No value whatsoever but astute betting with the corporate bookies will give us an advantage.

Race 3 n5 MISS INDEPENDENT Nice last start win and again well placed. We need to pray for some genuine pace otherwise the fav may get a soft lead.

Race 4 n6 WINTER KING With all the scratchings this neddy is now tomato sauce odds. Does look too nippy for this lot. Paying better than bank interest.

Race 6 n7 SQUAMOSA This horse is race fit, is well placed with the weights, has been killing them in track gallops and is trained by Gai. Did I miss anything?

Race 7 n5 KHEMOSABI My pro punter pal tells me he has been reading the smoke signals about this neddy all week. He has already this morning invested a 5 figure sum on this race fit neddy. I’m following him in, what about you?

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

Great to catch up with the Professor during the week over a meal and a red or three! Unfortunately the Gelding was restricted to the stable. Next time old mate.

Race 1 n5 HIDDEN WONDER Comes in nicely based on ratings and loves the mile trip. Will be on the pace and will look the winner in the straight

Race 2 n3 DAL DAL No prize for picking this neddy as every man and his dog has jumped on. Gai has thrown the blinkers on and the pro punters took the early price bet by the corporate bookies

Race 6 n2 DECISION TIME The best horse in the race without question! Trialled brilliantly and is a super e/w bet. If this race was 200m longer I would declare this neddy.

Race 8 n 10 SUPERNOVA and n12 STORM KITE Finish the day with a few dollars e/w both of these. Our ratings man says they are the best placed and their current prices are very inviting

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost

Happy birthday tomorrow to all those beautiful nags who filled our pockets with lobster purchasing cash over the past 12 months! A very wet track at Rosehill means it is a day for punt drunks and Sydney Colt groupies.

Race 1 n2 AFRICAN PRINCE Will love the ‘heavy 10’ track and the pull in the weights

Race 2 n3 BACK ON TOP A pro punter convinced me to make this the ‘banker’ bet of the day. This neddy eats mud for breakfast and is very fit and in form.

Race 4 n1 MAGIC MODEL Pro punters in the know jumped all over the corporate bookies when early prices were released. I am told it has trialled outstandingly. At the time of writing this post the bookies are still betting a good e/w price (it will not stay that way!).

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