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 12 2007

Bets on Mon Feb 12 2007
OUTCOME: BASIC PLAN: -37 points (within OVERALL: -58)
PROSPECTS (as they seemed yesterday): I've short-listed CHAMOSS ROYALE/LOST (Row 1). My Majority stat is only a notch or two better than 50/50 for the win, but my Odds stats are much more encouraging (not that this guarantees anything). It is, I would say, significantly opposed, however. Plus, there's not much daylight to the 2nd Fav in the F/c odds. So I'm taking a chance. But I feel it should win. Aside from a main tip, if one comes in, Chamoss Royale carries enough in commitment for it to be disappointing if it fails.

Summary (Day 314) C/F to 13 Feb (Day315Month11Week2.6Phase06CDay104)
E&OE:
BASIC PLAN (Phase 06C only wef 01/11/06) surplus = +16 points net @ an average this Phase of +c0 point/day .... within OVERALL Phase 06C deficit of -410 points gross @ an average of -c4 points/day. Gain-days in Phase 06C: Feb: **9 B/PL (8 O/A), Jan '07: 21 (19) [-41: but there seems to be an error somewhere of 33 points not so far found], Dec '06: 16 (11) [-300], Nov: 19 (15) [-218] **Break-Even days count as Win ones on the basis that if I haven't lost ... I must have won!
PLUS B/f BASIC PLAN (Phase 06B: 01/08/06-31/10/06) = +204 points .... within OVERALL (Phase 06B only) = +41 points gross (Gain-days in Phase 06B: Aug:- 14 Basic Plan (Overall 15) [-105 O/a]; Sep: 15 (13) [-201];  Oct: 17 (18) [+347])

Tips
1) No Main tip [Bets (usually against advice as this is a Win, occasionally an EW, tip): Split of Small Win + (mainly) Place Only, to grand total of ? points (for a 'small/large' field) OVERALL N/A]
2) Endorsements over obstacles (Good words), including my dedicated stats for this bet category, at Plum: PARK LANE PRINCESS/Lost (25W30L) - CHAMOSS ROYALE/Lost  (49W31L) - SHATABDI/Won (No stat) - SPIDAM/2nd (66W57L)
Bets: Basic Place Only/Win on Chamoss Royale     [OVERALL -7]
3) Other tip/s for fun (at negligible risk)
850 Gulf(USA) No10 EIGHT DAYS APART F/c 6/1/ LOST - yesterday
