If you don't know what Betfair is, you probably shouldn't be here Crazy

Launceston–Quarantine Road (it went via Wellington Road)

Launceston–Mowbray Heights (this one was extended to Newnham Park  in 1952

Launceston–Basin Road

Launceston–Quarantine Road (via Talbot Road)

Launceston–Norwood

I used to be a tram driver there but I was viciously beaten one day by a gang of patriotic union delegates from Sheffield because I helped an elderly war veteran onto the tram.
Report doubleagent February 27, 2014 12:35 PM GMT
Actually it was a very long time ago. Maybe I threw an old war veteran off the tram. Can't remember exactly. It was something to do with a useless old cnnt,some shop steward arceholes from PommyLand and Bill Shorten.

DaJudge was incarcerated for affray.

Lazza was abducted by aliens (the same ones who obviously built the pyramids).

Chante was rejected by them and spends his days looking longingly to the sky.

Bulldog thinks less is more. (He's wrong.)

Whoopi was blown away by a cyclone.

STS was goaded into self combusting (more than once) in an unfortunate blurt of purple and brown. 

LTF was a victim of affray.

Danehill is David Gately. He's too good for us now.


I do try to create some chatter Silly It's a load of codswallop to be fair, but.......that's all I got to give! Cry

THE WASH UP

Doesn't get much better than yesterday for those of us afflicted with an Equine perversion. Happy

Gave up on the pre-parade ring after the first. Mischief Horses heading out in dribs and drabs and some of them

sneaking against the traffic, heading straight down the tunnel....unseen Devil

For the future, I have also arranged for the C O Course ponies to munch down those pesky roses at my designated spot.

Settled for a spot near the tunnel EXIT....which also made the journey to Womble's World on the border of West Footscray 

much easier. Had a cider , good to catch up again. Happy

Admitted defeat in the Guineas before the race....predictably, toooo many rockstars and 98% fit Cool horses.

Apart from that, found the winner in 7 of the other 8 Shocked races.......can only go downhill from that!! Laugh

MaryAnne Mischief..drawn, quartered and hung.

Don't give up....purple patches don't last..I'll soon  give you some back. Plain

Observations

R1. Neither HUSSON EAGLE or MORE RADIANT were at all primed for their debuts. Good performances bode well for their future,

particularly for the latter....looked VERY plain yesterday.

R4. ELITE ELLE looked big to me. Wouldn't sack it if you're a fan.

R5. My bogey race. Mischief SPENDING looked really well and had every chance. Sacked.

R6. MOURO. Love he's sooooo purrty.

R8. M O LIFE. Not really one of mine but seems Lets and others? are keen to sack her completely.

Looked plain in coat and burly yesterday. Mischief

R9. AKZAR. Love goin like a fkn zyrtek!


Hoofnote.

ADAMANTIUM looked almost back to his show-stopping best yesterday. Last time he peaked he WON AGAIN when he backed up. Wink

Cheers
