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 Nov 20 2006

Results of bets on Mon Nov 20 2006
Day232Month08Week3.6(Phase06CDay20)


Hopefulness born out - just about
PROSPECTS (as they seemed last night)
4 in my short-list, 2 clear, & strong, 'Majority stat' consensus favs: TRINITY ROSE/2ND & LA COLLINE/WON (both Row 1). My other stats are especially encouraging, too, on their chances. Trinity Rose not given a great ride, I thought. But what do I know?
DOWN'S FOLLY/2ND (Row 3) also has strong stats for the win, but its Majority stat is rather weak (51W80L). The weakest qualifier is BACKBORD/WON (Place Only I)- less than 50/50 for the win in all three stat categories (not that this guarantees anything).
It could prove a disappointing day - very easily. But, main tip excepted (if any), not a whole lot is at stake - other than the capped To Place bets on Trinity Rose & La Colline (25 points each).
I have taken a chance by including SEISMIC SHIFT/WON (SPd @ 3/1!) in Row 3, Lambourne having chosen it as his Nap, which, as the race is a bumper, I take to be significant. I am hoping it will win and therefore bump up (otherwise low) returns (if any). Paid off, this time. Pleasing.
