Yes, I can't get my tips on either even though it says I have 1 hr & 30 mins to go. Just says closed at 10:35, which of course hasn't arrived yet!

Due to the technical issues associated with the Queensland floods, Tips for Sha Tin today were unable to be posted.

BOP A BOOKIE has been postponed until NEXT SUNDAY!

Those bookies are protected by Guarding Angels I reckon! I had a big BOP A BOOKIES DAY planned for last Sunday, and due to the floods closing down the PP site, no tips could be posted!

As it turned out, from the 5promised selections we landed 3 winners, 1 second and 1 third, including a $5.50 winner ..... so those bookies were let off the hook.

Since they have begun to pay fees to Victoria and New South Wales, their service to punters I think has gone backwards. At least in terms of their service of Hong Kong racing!

Of course, it will be we the punters who pay these fees in the long run. We have lost Maxi Div in Hong Kong, and not too many bookies now post the odds for all races before racing commences.

But last Sunday, IAS didn't have any fixed odds for any Sha Tin races ALL DAY. In my opinion, IAS has gone backwards since Mark Read sold it last year. It is now partly owned by an Irish bookie! (PaddyPower!!)

You can't imagine how bad I was wanting to give IAS a good spanking last Sunday, maybe that is why they never posted fixed odds all day!

Anyway for those of you excited by the concept of BOPPING A BOOKIE ... we will do it again next Sunday, floods and the gods permitting!

You betcha! I mean, how often does the Punters Paradise site go down most of Saturday and nearly all Sunday! I don't think it has ever happened before. But it was a result of the Queensland floods inundating the data centre a week of so earlier!

I was really quite excited about the Sha Tin card last Sunday Caviar, as readers of my wall read on Saturday night.

These bookies are blessed!

Some days when you finish handicapping a card, you look at them and nothing really excites you. On other days, you really feel excited by the prospects of your TOP RATERS. I was thus last Saturday night as I posted here, and then closed down. I really was looking forward to giving these online bookies a good BOPPING!

They are rolling in money after the Spring Carnival, even after having to give RACING VICTORIA 15% of their profits ..... I for one don't intend to be contributing I can assure you!

These days, I am only handicapping ONCE A WEEK, the SHA TIN meeting on Sundays mostly.

We still have about 23 Sha Tin meetings remaining in this season, and I will be making EVERY POST A WINNER!
