Last week left us a little cold with 2 seconds from 2 bets. That left us with 6 wins from 12 bets in 2013. Today we have identified a host of bets, with some at juicy each way prices for Sydney Colt groupies and punt drunks everywhere.

Race 2 n2 OVERREACH Expect this will confirm her as the hot Slipper fav.

Race 3 n9 LUNAYIR e/w Last win great. If it had a decent barrier it would be a certainty to fill a hole. Hoping for a bit of luck in the 1st 300m.

Race 4 n5 CHARLIE BOY I suspect this neddy may be the pick of the colts for the Slipper. Like LUNAYIR this one needs an ounce of luck from the barrier.

Race 5 n10 HIGH SHOT e/w This Melb visitor has had excuses this preparation. Has a ton of potential. Definitely over the odds.

Race 8 n10 PIERRO 3yos have had a dominant season. Expect this champ to beat some very good group 1 horses. Blinkers go back on!!

Race 9 n13 SANTA DE NOCHE We are blessed to have such a great bet in the “getout stakes”.

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