The Totopoly Kid

OUTCOME:  BASIC PLAN: -92 [OVERALL: -105]
PROSPECTS (as they seemed over-night): No short-list. Major commitment to Place on AROMATHERAPY/LOST & AMARNA/2ND, otherwise stakes have computed modest-to-small in the UK. My commitment on the RSA races aggregated high-sh, however and Saturday is quite busy as regards the Australian cards. Actually, I was uneasy about today, starting with the Australian tips (big fields, long forecast odds in the main), and toyed with the idea of taking the day off - but, in the end, I carried on & hoped for the best.
