If it makes you feel any better ... I backed it ! Backed both of Bernie Kelly's but the right one won for me!
Race 2 at Young today. Frith. That filly has trialled nicely, a 3rd and then a couple of jog-ola wins at Junee, heard she had all sorts of speed. So, I had her in my Black Book, knew she was in today, set the alarm on my phone to remind me, it duly went off...BUT somewhere between there & the computer I got side-tracked, I missed the race, she got home and paid $9.90 NSWTAB. Had a shocker.![]()

Please, Breno....must you now rub salt into my wounds?![]()
backed it also but took the $9 onfixed odds..........I had a feeling there might have been someone else out there ready to knock off the tote price.......good win had to stop and start a couple of times but has good speed!
And as the crowd like to sing at the football or cricket - "Jamie's a wanker, (clap hands, clap hands, clap hands), Jamie's a wanker, etc, etc...
Footnote: I missed a $3.90 winner (Cousin Dupree) last night and didn't like it one bit so a $9.90 can only 'triple' the pain so to speak!! (Pardon the bad pun!)

Geeze, that's not a particularly morally supportive post you know Nathan.![]()
Terrible stuff. If you miss them when you don't know they're in...that's one thing. When you talk all permissable measures and you still miss them...that's getting around to being more like early onset dementia.
I can only commiserate with you Jaimie and hope that your distraction was something of a oncer....
Bernie Kelly is thanking the gods that Jaimie didn't back her.
