Group 1 winners falling into that team’s laps like wedding day confetti….
Winners at every turn, and the supersub jockeys making the most of their opportunities. Tough for Ryan watching on from the sidelines but he would have been impressed by the way that the plate was stepped up to…

Scandinavia and Al Riffa sitting high in the Melbourne Cup betting charts after grinding out their respective successes. Two tough nuts – but Curragh and Doncaster mud very different to Flemington turf in a few weeks time…
The Melbourne Cup is very near the top of my “wish list”. A gap in my life experience that needs filling sooner rather than later…

Rain taking out the final T20 match between England and South Africa. The series ended 1-1. I had a small bet on England winning 3-0 that has been settled as a loser after the home side lost the first match. But with the weather meaning that 3-0 became an impossible option, should all bets be voided ? The firm in question has settled “losing” correct score bets and voided all others. Which seems like a “Win-Win” for them….??
Two to Brighton today….
MARSH BENHAM (Pat C) and DANGER ALERT (Jason Watson) beside the seaside…
Fast horses on The Downs. White Horses out at sea….
