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.

Tips
NORTH BEACH CONDO 827 (USA/LOST- result from yesterday
ALLESVERLOREN 605 Newm(RSA/WON- result from yesterday
No.1 CALL THE KITTY F/c 5/2 915 Keen(USA/Late result - see tomorrow
Bets: Tiny win     [OVERALL +1]
No Major Lay tip today.
Major Win tip to hand (@4/1 when sent to me) is ASIAN ALLIANCE/Lost F/c 6/1 515 Punc(IR)
Too late to get 4/1. Gambled down to 9/4 currently. (I never trust these.)
Tempted to halve stake (as over hurdles) but have decided to side with market support and not cap the bet. [Wrong decision] Tiny win (mostly at SP+ with Centrebet in the hope the price will drift out again - it did; to 5/2 [i.e., 3.50 - I would have been paid @ 3.75 on 2/3rds of the total of my win stake]), the balance Place Only, to a grand total of 20 points     [OVERALL -20]
Good words to hand on SPEEDY SAM/LOST F/c 9/1 - CONSERVATION/2ND F/c 5/1 - run 'for money' - but no bet (Both at Nott)
Bet(s): Tiny win on Speedy Sam    [OVERALL EVEN (-0.20)]
