We have gained some good mail for today’s races. Nothing fancy about the prices of the 3 tips but I expect a profitable day. If you bet with the corporate bookies and not the thieving local tote you will win more.

Race 1 n5 CROSSBOW Won a ‘no race’ where it ran great sectionals. Only has to match that effort to win this with ease. Know a pro punter who got some good oil direct from Gai’s stable on this neddy.

Race 4 n2 FUSAKEO Another from Gai’s stable. Nash will control the pace of this race up front. Well suited being back 200m from its last start 2nd to a promising horse.

Race 5 n6 ATOMIC FORCE Extremely well placed here because (a) lack of pace (b) weight drop and (c) dryer track = 3 good reasons to have a small flutter.

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