surely dunaden will go down as the greatest bargain in the star stable history because it cost only $25,ooo

Thanks Doc...would've skyrocketed had Red Cad got up, doubt many would've had him in there stable.

AFS...funny thing was, i was so confident on him right up until i seen him in the parade yard. After seeing the likes of Americain, Dunaden, Red Cadeaux, Fox Hunt.....AFS looked small compared to them. I didn't realise how small he was. I believe they should've rode him colder....didn't seem to have that sprint after being ridden close to the speed...or perhaps he just couldn't sprint at the end of two miles. If Fox Hunt comes back next year and gets under 55 i'll be all over him in pre post markets.

Dam I rushed my last to race meeting selections & this time didn't even realize BC's race was worth 1 cool mill wtf... what a stupid mistake.. like I kept Nolen because of her but didn't buy her as for some reason I thought the race was worth middle sized peanuts.AMATEUR lol.. congr8tz to everyone that participated in our PP league.. happy punting :)

457th i think ... was 202nd last week but made a amateur mistake of not noticing BC's race was 600K first prize lol ...seriously when a horse like that makes it a "No Contest" some people don't look at the race like I didn't.. "I admit it was a stupid mistake".. Should have held my ground in the 200's or even pushed deeper.. Me & my brothers small league of 4 stables were running 10th last week.. it was fun & my first go.. I'll have to have another go next year.. thxz again Arma66 many happy punts to you this summer!

ps for the record my biggest single financial collect over the comp was on the Cup .. my first choice was Lucas then At First Sight & Amercain.. but my 4th choice was Dunaden.. I just missed on the First4 as I had to knock one for 1st on the head to keep within my budget as I didn't want to take a smaller %.. so I knocked Dunaden back to just placings mainly becaues of the riding debarcle & listening to the experts say that would be a sufficient negative.. that cost me the First4! BUT I covered myself in Tri's with Dunaden included to win.. Red Cardeux was an outsider I always fancied for some reason & even now im not totally sure why.. that photo finish decision for1st felt like 10mins cause if Red got up then I would have collected ZILCH lol
