4 winning bets from 6 last week gives us a records of 10 from 18 in 2013. It is very hard to find winners today except perhaps IT’s A DUNDEEL which just about picks itself. Anyway we have 3 bets today for Sydney Colt groupies and punt drunks everywhere.

Race 4 n4 SIDESTEP Comes out of the Black Opal which has proved a hot form race. Dumped the jockey last Saturday. If McEvoy can hang on it will be in the placings for sure.

Race 6 n2 IT’S A DUNDEEL I was keen on this neddy before the scratching of Fiveandahalfstars and therefore it now moves to a “good thing” bet. Very skinny in betting so betting BOBs with several of the corporate bookies is a must.

Race 9 n3 SOFT SAND Keen on this Melb raider who has a touch of class on the opposition. The biggest worry is any lack of pace.

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