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 Apr 28 2007

Bets on Sat Apr 28 2007
OUTCOME: BASIC PLAN: -2 pts [within OVERALL -6]
PROSPECTS (as they seemed over-night):
Just MANY VOLUMES/WON (Row 3) made it into my short-list - sort of by default. Several others had good/excellent Majority stats in my records but threw up negatives of one sort or another that Many Volumes simply didn't. I can't recommend it especially; but I've nothing against it either. My gut feeling is it probably should not be in my short-list despite what my numbers indicate. I take a chance on it, in short.
I ended up with a fair number of peripheral bet prospects that should make the afternoon interesting - but I've no idea how the day will go overall. I suspect it will be difficult and, probably, another one that disappoints (to add to this month's collection!). I hope for the best. In fact, I had a modestly successful afternoon, undermined ultimately by the failure of today's subscription tip (Cornish Sett). So disappointing when that happens!
