October 11 - Caulfield Guineas, Thousand Guineas and Spring Champion Day

Hey All

Great day of racing in Melbourne today with the best of the 3yos stepping out in Thousand Guineas for the fillies and Caulfield Guineas for the colts and geldings. Add to that the Spring Champion Stakes in Sydney with the super impressive First Seal taking on the boys and it's a classic day for the 3 year olds.

The main system continues to frustrate with another losing day last week and a 42 unit loss meaning I'm down 119 for the season. Needs a bit of turning around so I went looking for a positive and it wasn't very hard to find - my best bets.  I had a feeling they were going pretty well and doing the figures has confirmed that

Melbourne

3 from 11 or 27.27% for a POT of 7.73%

Sydney

5 from 10 or 50% for a POT of 82.60%

Overall

8 from 21 or 38.10% for a POT of 43.38%

Small numbers but very promising and something I will start to focus on a bit more from here.  All the tips have been posted here with results calculated using Betfair best of 4 or best of 5 depending which was available.

Todays best are

Caulfield - Race 8 number 6 Lumosty

The main lead up race doesn't look to be anything special so I'm looking outside that to a horse coming off a 9 length win in a Sale maiden.  Should jump and run and be very hard to catch

Randwick - Race 2 number 2 Best Case

With the other form race being a 1900 benchmark 85 here a fortnight ago I'm happy to be on a horse stepping up in distance and down in class from the 1500m Group 2 Shannon Quality.  Looking for the 2000m now and should get a great run off a fairly hot pace.

Best of luck if you're having a bet
