The Totopoly Kid I have come to punting very late in life - in retirement, in fact. But I was not new to racing when I did, for as a boy my favourite board-game was Totopoly and, in Australia at the time, I was taken a few times to magical Randwick, the Sydney racetrack.

Diary for Jan 18 2007

Results of bets on Thu Jan 18 2007

OUTCOME: Main racing called off  BASIC PLAN *EVEN (within OVERALL EVEN)
PROSPECTS (as they seemed yesterday):
4 in my short-list again: TILAPIA
/NON RUN (Row 3) & I'M SO LUCKY/NON RUN (Place Only I), plus WYLDELLO/NON RUN & GARRULOUS/NON RUN (latter two rejected). Apart from Tilapia, each is encouraging for the win on my Majority stat. The exact reverse is true of my Odds stats. Wyldello, indeed, falls within one of my least successful Odds Configuration categories: 6 runners F/c @ under 14/1 (22W43L - I prefer a more favourable stat than this for qualifiers). Each is Opposed, Wyldello by a Nap. Aside from any main tips that comes in, my stakes are tiny.
The above are all quite well favoured "Consensus Favourites," in fact, but it still looks like a "Laura Luck Day" to me.


Financial Summary E&OE:-

2) Endorsements over obstacles (Good words), including my dedicated stat for this bet category, at Ludl: No selection - Taun: I'M SO LUCKY/Non run (50W50L)
Bets: Place Only     [OVERALL EVEN]
3) Other tip/s: Discontinued. I did a belated AMD check - Alphabetical Monitoring Device ( see below) - which showed its record had deteriorated to "ZZT," too far in deficit to justify persevering with. However, with so little going on, today, I've chanced
No.8 DAY BIRD F/c 4/1 840 Gulf(USA/Late result - see tomorrow
