For Saturday' Vic Cup meeting of 11 high quality races
the Stewart stable has 5 odds on favourites and 2 favourites around 6/4
If they can win 7 races on such a premier card, then the other trainers should consider easier pickings against Ben Yole down in Tassie

Our code is so different. Rob Auber just referring to the $1.20 fav being beaten in R2 as a mini boilover In the gallops it would be considered shocking.
Sometimes I wonder whether it is just a couple of dozen big pro punters v the betting agencies that is the bulk of our turnover (and the very slim thread we hang by)

How bad are the TABs fixed place odds
eg R3 Melton semi tonight, we have a couple of potential champions in the race so we have several horses at $151
BUT the longest place odds are $11 - for a $151 pop the place offering should be more than twice that

Checking out the Inter market, I noticed a Eureka market! Probably been there for yonks BUT it is still 10 months away!
Does anybody want to give the TAB their hard earned for the best part of a year to snap up
$3 Leap To Fame
$4 Captain Ravishing
We are a sick country, our population is <0.5% of the world and yet we have 20% of the world's poker machines

I really believe there is just a handful of pro punters that account for half our turnover
And that is a worry in my book
In R1 the first four pool was about $9,000 and most of it jackpotted
So what happens in the next
R2 the first four pool was about $48,000
The next R3 the first four pool was back to about $7,000
That is not the little punters piling in
