My Tinder date let me down :)) :)) so I was able to have a look at tomorrow. Did this meeting replace Narrogin? I think it has.
R2 Indian smoke signals are in the air for Sioux City
R5 Light In The Black each way at odds
R7 Mirth'n'Music an each way special
R8 Alcina to win a very weak race. Shackleton specked at long odds despite woeful form. Drop in class perhaps?
Hang on a minute......... The Grindr date has made an appearance. :)) :))

Even money for Type Won is a decent bet today should be the day but when if at all is the rain(apparently 20 to 40 mill expected there only 1.2 mill has dropped so far?)expected?
Anyway up to a point i'll back this fav in R1 and hopefully that will fund a bet on Northern Chill R2 Guarded could win but @2.45 fuggedaboutit!
If it gets too wet i'll abort i think.
@Dodgey is Paty going To Mingenew next month? she goes ok that girl and should figure today depending on the track being not a slop by R7.

Fair dinkum bomber that’s getting your bread buttered on both sides.
It’s funny when your lucks in can remember gaining a protest third against first and second and both being upheld, that was a decent collect.
Then there’s the other days ( these tend to outnumber the good luck days for some reason ) Hay street tab in the city when it was on the other side of the road, just a quick dash from work in i go and on i get, wins with the proverbial leg in the air, ( that’s unusual when I’m on ) so i punch air, normally hang around until correct weight, but no problems here, it bolted in, if don’t get back to work soon I’ll miss morning tea.
Roll on lunchtime to collect - hello the numbers are up wrong, what’s going on here, then heard the chilling words from the tab agent - “weighed in light.”
Lucks a fortune.

I’d say I’m about 50/50 on protests over the years, recently lost one, but had them go my way too.
Remember being on a horse called Paint ( was a very good two year old ) later in his career, was last race of the day at Moonee Valley on Cox Plate day think it might have been the year Damien Oliver won on Dane Ripper at long odds, anyway Paint ran off the track for 200 metres goes down narrowly, protest goes for 40 mins - dismissed!
You just never know how they’ll roll sometimes, got a good result on a Sydney Cup about 10 - 15 years ago on a minor protest being upheld, ring a ding ding Pumper’s the King Jim Cassidy protested and got it!!
Weighed in light and disqualified that was the only time, has never affected my result either way again. Must be a great surprise if you’re on the second horse.

Well today was the luckiest I've ever been in 40 years of punting. I left Fresco Friar out of my quaddy but got the other 3 legs. I didn't even know the 7th had been abandoned until after the last. Talk about a nice bonus. That makes up for the hard luck stories over the years!

That photo finish one of the best ever, even better than Might And Power v Doriemus and Viewed v Bauer.
What I don’t like about the above post is that I’m now 4 years older!
