Sydney Colt's Mail For Rosehill 18 September
The fill up continued last week giving us 6 winners and a 3rd from the last 7 tips. If you didn’t follow the mail from Gai’s stable you were surely asleep at the wheel. Unfortunately we have no strong leads from our contact there for today.
Race 3 n7 HOT DANISH No bravery award for picking this one but it should just win. I followed the lead early and took $1.85 (they bet $1.95). Now shorter!
Race 6 n11 SASA I am told if ratings mean anything this neddy has lengths on this field. Explains why they came from everywhere to back this with the Corporate bookies. I secured $3.0 but assume it will start shorter.
Race 7 n9 HOW MUCH MY LOVE e/w Sydney Colt groupies will know we have been waiting for this neddy who is a first up specialist. Has already firmed from $8.0 to $6.0
MELB Race 6 n10 SO YOU THINK I cannot ignore the advice of our ratings man who says he has no idea how they can beat this neddy today. It can control the tempo and we saw last start what he is capable of.
Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
Gelding's tips for 18 September 2010
The Gelding’s attention returns to his home track at Caulfield tomorrow . Hopefully the rain will stay away and the track will dry out with all the wind we are having. Hope all the punters out there were on the Sydney Colt and my tips last weekend. You would be well in front with a nice little bank!
The tips as always are on an each way and all up basis.
Race 3 Horse 4 – Avenue
Race 4 Horse 1 – Toorak Toff
Race 7 Horse 1 – Doubtful Jack (for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 8 Horse 7 – Moudre (also for the girls at the Tennis club)
And don’t forget, Queen Asa goes around at Cranbourne on Sunday at 2.25pm, Race 3 Horse 6. Hoping for an improved run (maybe 5th this start).
Remember that you can hear me discuss how the selections faired with the Professor on Sportzfan Radio every Sunday at 12.30pm on 88.3 Southern FM.
Good luck and good punting!

12 September 2010 170.2 – Paul Dalligan discusses NRL and laments that his Rabbitohs missed the finals when they couldn’t beat St George last week after the Canterbury Bulldogs opened the door for them by beating Manly. He also discusses the NRL finals and tells the Professor of a the recent stoolgazing episode engaged in by two Sydney Roosters players. Daniel reviews the FIBA World Basketball Championships and the Boomer’s fortunes finishing a creditable (?) tenth. He also wonders why noone worked out till recently that one of Greg Oden’s legs was shorter than the other. Sean Callanan thinks Social Media can be a ‘danger zone’ for athletes with both Stephanie Rice and the Matilda’s Lisa De Vanna getting into hot water on twitter and facebook during the past week. Sean never thought Sportzfan Radio would be compared with Saturday Night Live but Lisa Hayes wasn’t going to watch SNL until our show had finished. A listener suggests the syndicate race horse should be named ‘Professorial’. The Panel discuss the state of Etihad Stadium’s surface (again) and the Gelding feels the AFL should bring back Waverley Park.

12 September 2010 170.1 – A political discussion starts the program with Daniel finding it hard to work out why, if the Western Bulldogs scored more than Sydney and won the game, why didn’t the Coalition win the election as they scored more than the Labor Party. The Professor’s reveals that his nomination for the name of the horse the syndicate will be racing is Sir Yorrick. Dan Butterly talks US sport including discussion of the NFL opening round, the MLB playoff races, the Air Force Academy’s great win over BYU in College football, Lauren Jackson winning another MVP award in the WNBA and Boise State’s fortunes in basketball in the coming season. The Gelding talks racing and chats about his tips for Moonee Valley and the Sydney Colts selections at Rosehill. He says that of the eight selections made by he and the Colt they garnered 5 firsts, 2 placings and a fourth. Mordiboy returns behind the microphone to talk golf and interview Rossdale trainee professional Baden Schaff.
Sydney Colt's Mail For Rosehill 11 September
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.
Gelding's tips for 11 September 2010
The Gelding’s attention turns to Moonee Valley tomorrow and he hopes that the rain we have had during the week won’t make the track too heavy. He cautions to take note of any rain between now and race time tomorrow as this may affect some of the runners.
As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.
Moonee Valley
Race 6 Horse 3 HAY LIST
Race 7 Horse 5 SHOOT OUT (for the girls at the Tennis club)
Race 8 Horse 5 GHOSTMILK (also for the girls at the Tennis club)

Sportzfan Radio #169.2
5 September 2010 169.2 – The Panel talk NRL with Paul Dalligan. He says Rabbitohs supporters are never on the knife edge as they aren’t usually even in the kitchen. He says the Melbourne Storm have really played well and given everything since the salary cap problems. The Gelding likes Typhoon Tracey to win the Horse of the Year award. Sean Callanan discusses the poor crowds at the MCG for both finals matches played so far. Sean believes a lot of it has to do with the way tickets are released to the public and an inability for the public to choose where they would like to sit. He says that “single ticket” sales aren’t handled by the AFL very well. He also discusses the Boomers progress at the FIBA World Championships and wasn’t surprised that they beat Germany. For the tournament to be a success they need to win the next game at least. The Professor and the Gelding discuss Matthew Knights shabby treatment by the Essendon Board and the Professor wonders what ever happened to the review that was to be undertaken.
Sportzfan Radio #169.1
5 September 2010 169.1 – Susan Shan makes her Sportzfan Radio debut and talks US sport with the Professor and the Panel. She likes the Green Bay Packers to do well in the NFL this season and thinks the Oakland Raiders defence will be their big problem although they will be better than last year. She is surprised that there aren’t more Aussie punters and kickers going to the US to try out for the NFL. Gelding talks racing and is surprised that the penetrometer didn’t go in as far this week given the rain that had fallen in Melbourne. He thinks he was unlucky with his tips and compliments the Sydney Colt for his 3 winners. Gelding says his wife knows everything and therefore he would have backed that horse to win over “Wife knows nothing”. Mordiboy makes a welcome return to the show to talk golf and in particular whether married golfers are more successful than single golfers and expects Tiger Woods to win his next championship within six months.
