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.

Bets on Aug 1 2007

OUTCOME:  BASIC PLAN: +3 [within OVERALL +10]
PROSPECTS (as they seemed over-night): Short-list of 2: HAWKWELL/BOMBED & SAM'S SECRET/WON (Place Only I). My stats are pretty good on these (with the exception of my "New Odds" one about Sam's Secret: 22W43L). The latter point ensures this runner does not go into a main Row. Hawkwell has attracted no Nap, which obviates anything like a major punt on my part. It's Place Only adjusted stake, however, has computed high enough.
I've found a fair few peripheral bets @ medium-small-to-small stakes.
If my peripherals don't collectively 'bomb' and the above two oblige I should do well enough. A fairly big "if." I but hope for the best, today.

Summary Day 122 (wef 01/04/07) C/f to Aug 02 (Month05Wk1.2Day123Phase07BDay33) - BASIC PLAN Phase 07B (begun 01/July/07) Surplus = +36 (within BASIC PLAN deficit of -708 (wef 01/Jan/06), -468* of which is within just 2007's OVERALL deficit of -1044), to which I have reinstated (added) -5554 Overall for all of 2005 (Jan-Dec), and -11022 likewise for all of 2006 = **Provisional pre-Write-Off global figure = OVERALL deficit of -17621 pts @ ave. -2/day* for Basic Plan over 213 days since 01/01/07; 01 Basic Plan Win day in Aug so far, 16 in July, 17 in June, 15 in May;14 in April, mainly small - a disappointing 1st quarter this financial year, but the Overall deficit is - stop/go-ishly - being chipped away E&OE.
