Good meeting coming up at Kellerberin.
Race 5 is interesting.. a race for the quintessential battlers..an indication My Names Bob has opened favourite at $2.80 :-O the trainer and driver are in tip top form but think even they may have the job ahead of them to get this bloke over the line in first place. One of the tougher races of 2017. Anything could win. Not writing off Bob but will pass on backing him as favourite.
Now there is a horse in the race have seen often..this seven year old mare really struggles...a bit of a guide..45 starts for just one win and one placing..previous five starts has jumped on tote at $189.70 , $113.50 , $155.20 , $131.40 and $97.40...her name Mill Pond..ya gotta feel for her...however!! the run at Pinjarra two starts ago when fifth behind Honey and Lime in a much better field was a very good effort...did some work in the run too. Was odds on to drop right out but actually stuck on. Today drawn the seven ( inside of the backline ) stunned am saying this but on the effort at Pinjarra am going to have a few coins on eachway. That will be twice have backed her - first and last time. Miracles do happen.
To recoup that loss...think the all up win of ex Kiwi horses Robert The Bruce and Neighlor can get over the line. If they get up might get around anywhere from $2.20 to $2.80 on the multi. Not much luck lately for Robert The Bruce, will run short enough, but looks a bit too classy for them..hopefully Neighlor can make it two in a row with another pillar to post victory.

I thought with SS on Famous Caribbean it would step better and possibly give some cheek. Horse can't quicken but i'm happy to have something on at the 50/1 stacked the place.
The run after Pinjarra ran last at Kellerberrin beaten 45 metres at $97.40. Gawd help us.
Trifecta with him winning and Mill Pond third nearly 3.3k
:-O
Mitchell Miller on the back of $51 and $16 double Friday night continues the form on roughies with a $31 winner Soho Cash. Was a good third to Affluent Bell last Sunday. Remarkable price especially drawing directly behind the favourite.
Seeknfind from the one only $2.80 yet Soho Cash on his hammer $31. Gees favourites start short now. About $8 would have been best bookmakers price Soho Cash twenty years ago. Seeknfind they would have been begging you to take $5.
Caller and Tipster is Matt Young.
Thought perhaps Brad or yourself. If had been able to listen in would have known either voice straight away. Hopefully can watch the replays tonight especially Mill Ponds race. You obviously saw the Pinjarra run too..left her out of the first four that day and thought well she's not a problem will drop out and be beaten 100 metres...she continued to fight on and only just missed fourth. Didn't credit however anybody would have noticed.
Good call on Robert The Bruce. A few heart palpitations for me but the $1.30 shots can do that. Alls well that ends well especially if Neighlor can do the same.
Clearly 4th the likely result for my place bet.

Quaddie $4400 :-O with a $1700 jackpot component as well. When considering Robert The Bruce was just a $1.36 that's one hell of a dividend.

Some bolters with a rough chance can get out to amazing fixed odds prices these days which is good to see.
Hurricane Zuki the other night...she's very one paced and extremely limited...but just eight runners in a particularly weak field with the nice inside row back draw the $15 a place fixed odds was a good competive price.
Ive got to say i enjoy Kellerberrin meetings on a Sunday -( snagged a bit of the tri in Soho Cash race ) i see theres quite a few meetings their in Nov as well- wouldnt mind 20 Sun meetings at Kellerberrin per year .
Where as Pinjarra - i couldnt careless if they shut that track Tommorrow - talk about boring - the TV viewer seems to be a million miles from the action as well - GP on a Tuesday night are in the same boat - pretty boring
I know you have got to factor in the cost of fuel for the participants - but Mon and Tuesday id like to see big changes as to where meetings are held - freshen it up for goodness sakes

Look at Kalg - race 2 Frid night ( must have been on Sky 1 ) - youve got horses like Reginald Trevor going around
Trifecta pool $14700 1st 4 Pool $11200
They are seriously good numbers
Many years ago i was in an inner city Sydney TAB Agency ( Double Bay in the arcade ) and 100% the truth no bulldust - in walked that famous American singer ( if you can call him a feucken singer - more like a con artist ) Tiny Tim . I thought to myself thats bloody Tiny Tim !! - long hair - Orange pants - blue coat an a scarfy thing around his neck
And he was like any other punter - he had that glazed look in his eye - he went straight to the form guides pinned on the wall - got his money on - and then his eyes were fixed on the monitor
I did read that among his many addictions - that backing race horses ( and slow ones in his case ) was one of them
BETTORBEASTAR – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
THE REAL NADAL – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
SKIPPY RASCAL – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
DREADLOCK ROCKSTAR – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
FERNLEIGH REBEL – Improved to the inside of IDEALINDIAMONDS approaching the 100 metres but C. Hall was unable to fully drive FERNLEIGH OUT due to the doubtful run.
SHEER ROCKNROLL – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
R J BOPPER – Failed to secure clear running and was not fully tested.
RULING GOLD – Failed to secure clear running until near the 50 metres and was not fully tested.
yeah....right.....keep punting on this crap boys....

The last race i watched in NZ - was about 4 years - ago - a field of 5 - with 3 equal 7/4 favourites ( Dexter Dunn was driving one of them ) - sprint lane in operation - one fav handed up to one of the other faves - who in turn handed up to the other equal fave - i thought what a load of uncompetitive junk
2 of the horses you quoted - Dreadlocks and Skippy -they were 6 back on the pegs - and running line respectively - and they both went for miracle runs - and were never winning prospects in the run - how you could blame the lack of a sprint lane - totally irrelevant in that situation
As for Bunbury - the 1st night of the inters - the whole programme was the most exciting pacing ive seen in yonks -horses were coming from anywhere . Shane Graham had a duel for the lead with one bloke - if there had been a sprint lane - that wouldnt have occurred - you would have got somehting dull instead
Since the sprint lane went in at Bunbury - its become like a bike velodrome - a real pegs track - unless youve got 40 metres on the field in class
