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 Feb 05 2007

Bets on Mon Feb 05 2007
OUTCOME: BASIC PLAN: +28 points (within OVERALL: +46)
PROSPECTS
(as they seemed yesterday): I've short-listed 4: DOM D'ORGEVAL/WON & KING REVO/WON (Row 2), FRINGE/2ND (Row 3) & BEDLAM BOY/WON (Place Only I). My Majority stats are encouragingly good on the latter three. My Odds stats, however, are strong on only Dom D'Orgeval & King Revo for the win, no better than 50/50 on Fringe and weak on Bedlam Boy.
I may have overdone things on the multiples stake levels, I feel. (Got a bit carried away.) If these do well, I should do all right. (Perhaps the odds are against this, though, on balance.)
Single win bets are modestly staked, however, so these can't hurt me unduly if any go/goes wrong - but, as usual, it will be damaging if any of the major 3 short-listed fails To Place. The day could very easily go wrong.
