Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill Sat 13 Aug

Leave a comment

Have been out Rosehill way this morning. Some interesting mail abounds. Confidence level today is sky high. Make Foxwedge your biggest and best bet.

Race 2 n1 FORETELLER We were on this at $6+ when it won impressively 2 weeks ago. I am told it has thrived since. Very short in betting however.

Race 4 n2 SWEETEST MELODY Won when resuming and keen judges said it had plenty of improvement in it.

Race 5 n2 FOXWEDGE I will be loading up on this neddy. Has won brilliantly 1st up previously and has trialled super. Also happens to be the best horse in the race. $2.3 available this morning with the corporate bookies. I’m salivating!

Race 6 n10 SEE THE WORLD e/w Just a little something on this neddy e/w. It has a light weight and is very fit. Double figure odds still available.

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

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!7 August 2011 213.1 – Once again Daniel Eade is unable to join the Panel, this time through illness. The Panel start the show with a discussion on the Melbourne Football Club. Dan Butterly comes on to talk US sport highlighting the imminent start of the College football season. He thinks it is no surprise that Oklahoma is ranked number 1 in the polls. It could be a great year for people who are against the BCS system. Dan is surprised that the Air Force Academy and San Diego State are not in the top 25. He believes that if TCU were a member of one of the BCS conferences they would have been ranked higher. Dan says it is a perception thing. He thinks it is out of Luke Fickell (OSU), Mark Richt (Georgia) and Rick Neuheisel (UCLA) who will be the first College football coach sacked. Dan then looks at the NBA lockout. He thinks it is going to be a very long dispute and realistically they could lose the whole season with the owners playing hardball. Plenty of players have signed overseas agreements meaning they think it won’t be sorted out soon. The NFL has solved their problems and their lockout is over with the teams now in training camp. Dan says it will be interesting to see how the pre-season will go with only a few weeks to the first game. He finishes with a chat about injured Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez being investigated for participating in an underground poker tournament. The Gelding comes on to talk horse racing from Flemington and Randwick yesterday. The Gelding picked three winners and a placing. He also indicates Danish Rock is due for a jumpout at Caulfield on Tuesday.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Randwick 6 August 2011

Leave a comment

I hope you jumped on our $6.2 winner Foreteller last Saturday. Having bet on just 3 races, we more than doubled our total outlay. I usually try and limit our runners but there is a heap of mail about for tomorrow’s meeting so why not climb aboard the money train.

Race 2 n6 GLIDING e/w The Bart Cummings yard has improved this neddy since its first run. Looks a lovely e/w bet for the punt drunks

Race 4 n2 ESSENCE OF SUCCESS The Sydney Colt’s groupies will be jumping for joy to learn that Gai and Nash combine with the best rated horse in Sydney tomorrow. That’s all we need to know.

Race 5 n8 CHIVVY e/w John Hawkes was looking to keep this one quiet but some of us took the early $6.0 being offered. Strong stable support for this one.

Race 7 n6 WHISPEROSA Definitely ‘D’ day for this neddy. Absolutely butchered last week and had little luck the start before that. We have been aboard this neddy both of its last 2 starts and hopefully we can strike back tomorrow.

Race 8 n8 CRAFTY IRNA e/w Could not believe the corporate bookies opened this at $13. That price has gone but plenty of e/w value still available.

IF YOU RESPECT MONEY BET WITH THE CORPORATE BOOKIES NOT THE TAB

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

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!31 July 2011 212.2 – Mark Fiorenti continues talking about the draw for World Cup 2014. He thinks the group with Spain and France in is the ‘Group of Death’. There is a discusson of Dean Bailey’s tenure as coach at the Melbourne FC and whether he should be sacked or not. This is followed by Glenn Hampson talking about whether the AFL are getting bang for their buck from the signings of Karmichael Hunt & Israel Folau. Sportzfan Stan says their is no loyalty for clubs these days, just players going for the money. The Panel talk with Paul Dalligan about NRL players involvement in AFL and his duties serving champagne at his lovelies baby shower. He also talks Melbourne Storm’s shackle tackle. Paul also discusses the NRL round in depth. The Gelding calls in to talk horse racing and the results from Caulfield. The Professor talks about using Daniel’s method of selecting horses and picked Mr Griswold for a nice collect.  The Gelding even awards an S-hit ride to Keiran McEvoy for his ride on Scarf that upset his all up bet. He also saw Danish Rock’s jump out and says the horse was a bit green and reminded him of a lawyer going to his first conference – all over the place. Glenn finishes off with a discussion on the controversy about Australian cricket contracts. Sportzfan Stan again calls for the sacking of the Australian selectors.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 30 July 2011

Leave a comment

The sun has been out all week in Sydney giving us punt drunks the chance to find a winner. Going a little wide in the market in a few races as the ratings indicate a day of value.

Race 1 I’m backing both n4 WHISPEROSA and n5 VALDHEZ Betting “best of the best” with either Betchoice or Luxbet will hopefully see us return around 6/4 for the total investment. These 2 stand out on form lines.

Race 4 n6 MISS SHAMARDAL e/w Took $13 yesterday with the corporate bookies. Comes in very well on ratings and has drawn a nice marble.

Race 6 n5 FORETELLER e/w This neddy has trialled sensationally. I’m all over it e/w.

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

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!3 July 2011 208.1 – The Panel are back after a mid year break.  Daniel talks about the swamp soccer grand final and his appointment as public relations officer for the Australian Ice Hockey League. The Panel talk to Brian Bales from the Newcastle North Stars about his ‘almost’ first ever short handed hat trick in Australia. The Professor asks the Gelding if Nathan Tinkler has any plans to purchase the North Stars. The Gelding talks horse racing and discusses the results from Moonee Valley and Rosehill. Daniel gives the Gelding a ‘B’ for his selections. Sportzfan Stan asks Daniel when he is going to tip against the Gelding. Daniel agrees he’ll do this but he will go on what the jockeys are wearing and horses names rather than the form guide. Sportzfan Stan raises the problems of current AFL clubs trying to resist offers for their uncontracted players from Gold Coast and Greater Western Sydney which leads the Panel to a discussion on what compensation clubs should get for losing those players. Mark Fiorenti talks soccer and admits he didn’t foresee Russia beating Scotland 6-0 in the Swamp Soccer final. He also talks about the crowd behaviour at the Sydney v Celtic match.

Daniel Eade’s tips for 23 July 2011

Leave a comment

I feel like the Hickory basketball team from the movie ‘Hoosiers’, going up against the unbeatable South Bend!  In this case, this is me taking on the more experienced and knowledgeable Gelding.

Yes, the Gelding has his way of picking horses.  He likes to study the form guide.

I prefer to bet on horses that have a name I can relate to, be it a name that has a reference to basketball, Collingwood, a favourite movie or a quality TV show.

For my maiden voyage into the world of the ‘non-expert tipster’, I have only made one selection.

Flemington

Race 4 horse 4 – Johnny Drama

The horse has good and bad form – either won two previous races or finished 11th in his last race.

For those who are not fans of the TV show ‘Entourage’, Johnny Drama is Vincent Chase’s brother.  The show revolves around the success and ups and downs of Chase’s career as an actor and his entourage.  Drama, his brother, is also an actor but far less successful and never willing to settle for anything but what he believes is the best for him and his career.

I suggest a $1.00 the win because if it comes second or third it really lost.
