When Bronze Wing & Summer Sky's crossed the line first and second with Steve Parnham and brother Chris Parnham aboard it provided a wind fall for novelty takers lucky enough to jag - a quinella of $492 and and a exacta of $680.
Phone book figures for the trifecta and first four.
On a different topic posed the question the other day - how many times does Pikey ride the last winner of the day ?! Lo and behold he's at it again.

Jumping from barriers 15 and 16 at the Railway Stakes start - they had the job ahead, but both strongly supported despite the shocking gates.
Talking of the last race though, recently in Sydney on the Saturday - the favourite won the last race on the card - something like 9 weeks in a row - uncanny.
It ran at $7.60 tote - isn't that it about its correct price ? Or would it have run at double figures with no Pike ?
The bigger question though - does Dickoletto win with no Pike ?
So many people around the traps say " I won't back Pike he's unders" ...then if enough are saying that does the unders become "overs" ? Or close to staring at what it should ?
For as many that support him - there's still a lot of ( tote ) punters won't back him because he's "too short "in the betting - I'm occasionally not so sure about that. Sometimes think one can negate the other.
Realising he is heavily backed - but reckon some avoid too - heard a few at the Tab yesterday say "I won't back Dickoletto with Pike on - he's always unders" - is he really ?

Yet heard several punters saying..."nah it's only paying $7.50 because of Pike" ...i'm not so sure about that.
Now - does it still win without Pikey ? That's the conundrum - can't ever be answered - we can have our own thoughts on it though.
