Why all the hype about Macintosh? Last time he was fully fit he actually couldn't get a game in the side. He was a very good player a couple of years back but has gone backwards quickly, if he is North's ace in the hole then they won't be too feared. You say they could have quite easily beaten Carlt...

I wouldn't be one but surprised if North miss the 8 altogether and if they are at any stage pushing the top 4 I'll just about fall over. Their list isn't really that good, they generally only beat sides below them and they still lack class and consistency. Collingwood, Geelong, Carlton, West Coast, ...

Another enjoyable year done and just about dusted on Punters Paradise and I just wanted to take the chance to wish every one, especially Kagan and Luc, and your families a merry Christmas and a happy and safe new year. All the best. Molanski.

McEvoy is always one that divides on here, he has been pretty good to me so I like him but at the same time I sort of understand where people are coming from. I think his issues are more mental than anything, physically, he is really well balanced and his horses tend to travel really well for him bu...

Silly to get stuck into Snowden about this, his stable doesn't bet (I don't believe the Sheik has ever had a bet in his life either). I agree to an extent in that I don't like it when the trainers deceive the public, I would prefer them say nothing. I don't believe they have any obligation at all to...

I agree eeelz, if he is guilty, Arma, there is no evidence he was being questioned about a sexual assault just that he was being questioned. He has never been charged with sexual assault at any point. He could have been guilty or anything, or as some have said, he may have been battling other demons...

Dal Santo is a good player but he won't win the brownlow. The truth is, the Saints are likely to struggle to make the 8. They only snuck in this year and if anything they have gotten worse, haven't really added anything to their list. Don't just assume Hayes will be back either, to do a knee at his ...

He has had a few issues in the past in regards to sexual assault claims, upon saying that though, he did put numerous kids through school in Zimbabwe and South Africa at his own expense.

Biggest problem was not the Sunday, the problem was they freakin started at 10.30AM!!!! I went to the meeting and everyone we spoke to was whinging about the same thing! The last race was at 2.40 for Christ's sake! The Turnbull, the feature of the day, was run at 2PM! Dumbest move ever.

Agree Steve, I have discussed this myself. I think qualifying is too easy particularly for overseas horses. Good post mate.

Love that info Plugga, however, safe to say they don't take into account Sepoy missing the start badly in the Manikato then going away from them to win as I thought this was his most impressive effort to date. What happened to Streama? I saw it win that race (I think it was grand final day) by 98 le...

Boys, how good is it to see a good quality group 1 on the last day of the carnival? Great stuff I reckon. Really deep field here. Wall Street's run in the Plate was huge and won this last year so gotta give him a sniff. King's Rose has bucketloads of class. Jimmy Choux is obviously a gun and like a ...

Was it Bartholomew? I don't reckon it was ood? buzz, I think there was a bit of money at the call on Mourayan. Pretty stupid.

Very disappointing by Channel 7 not showing the last race. However, I would be devastated if Sky and TVN were ever given exclusive rights to the Melbourne Cup Carnival as I don't have pay tv and as a student simply can't afford it and I enjoy watching the races from home for a change instead of havi...

Spare a thought for the lad who put $40 thousand on Red Cadeux at the call of the card to win $1.5 million!

Ha ha, it was a long night for him GC. I remember he backed one of them straight out (can't remember which one but think it paid about $35 the win) so that helped a little I guess. I was only just starting to become interested in racing and punting then so probably didn't fully understand his pain, ...

I can't have the Verminator, never ever like the Metrop form down here and hearing Waller talk about him hasn't exactly filled me with confidence. He's one of the 12 I've cut but it's the Melb Cup mate so if you like him, back him.

Mikka, you're right mate, Laing has won the last two.

Horse4luv, not having a go mate, but if you're going to implore us to do something can I suggest spelling implore properly? Seriously though, to narrow down the Melb Cup to 3 and so you will be staggered if anything else wins is staggering in itself.Bit of love for Shamrocker, donate your money to t...

Yeah Quad paid a million that day mate, I'll never forget as the old man got the first 3 legs but missed the last. Don't think he's had a quaddie since.

If that salutes Masturb I will eat my hat and never get stuck into you ever again (okay I can't promised the second one). His run on Saturday was horrible and don't think he should even be running but good luck mate.

Yeah I didn't like her at all on Saturday mate and didn't even put her in my trifecta. Obviously they have trained the brilliance out of her in trying to get her to run a Cox Plate distance but it hasn't worked.

Injuries weren't the only thing that hurt the horse. After the Stakes win, McGrath took the horse from Maher's property, claiming she wanted to take it to the beach, once she had taken the horse she then informed Maher that he would no longer be training it and that she would be taking over. Since t...

The Bendigo Cup stronger than the Caulfield Cup? You must have seen a different Bendigo Cup than me mate because the one I saw was weak as water.

Count me out. Firstly, it's not going to be wet. I doubt it'll even get to slow. Secondly, I know for a fact that connections were really confident last start and thought it would win and look what it dished up. No thanks.

Don't really know how people can pot Manawanui, what on earth has he done wrong?

Unlikely to be slow gents, there is only a 70% chance of 2 - 7mm tomorrow in the Melbourne Metrop Area. Track like Flemington, spitting on it would have more impact than 5mm.

Sort of have to back Wall Street after the plate. Interesting that it's now being revealed how shambolic the start of the Plate was. Mike Moroney is considering asking for Glass Harmonium's final declaration fee back and Beadman is claiming that Wall Street was actually not fully in the barrier when...

Punta, never listen to a Waterhouse, they say that every horse will win. I won't be touching More Joyous here unless I have a trifecta. She has never become the horse we thought she might and I think this has been her worse prep yet. I do concede that she appears to be wanting this distance but I ju...

Yeah Linton won't be paid up for on Saturday night, he's out. Hadn't heard about Older Than Time though? I think I can side with Bretto here and recall reading something about Booming not pulling up well from its last run or something too.

Also, regarding Precedence, I would consider backing him if he was paying $500...the place. Make no mistakes, his form has been woeful. I won't be including him in my first 23 bets for the Cup. Also, regarding Dreamaway, not sure how many of you followed her prep closely but she travelled from Perth...

nij, I was one who never really talked up Helmet. I think he's a superstar but I had doubts about him in the Plate. I think Mana is a much better bet in the Derby.

Call me mad boys but I reckon Unusual Suspect is the best of the internationals. I'm already on for the Melbourne Cup after his Caulfield Cup, if you haven't seen his run get on YouTube and watch the replay, he is second last on the turn, gets held up terribly in the straight and has to make a secon...

Can someone please link me to the Manawanui races that you've been watching because I obviously haven't been watching the right ones because on what I've seen $2.40 is value. Money, I just don't really get how you don't like Saturday's run for a Derby trial? He settles calmly, walks up to them and c...

Do Efficient's connections like a bet? Does the Pope go to church on Sundays? We will know in the next 36 hours if Efficient is a good show because the money will keep rolling in. I was liking him more with Descarado in the race as I think they would have gone quick but not so sure now...I'll spend ...

Boys, boys, boys. Where are your manners? We have a new member above and no-one welcomes him? Shame, shame shame. Welcome to Punters Paradise rocky. Hope you enjoy the forums and the site. Wondering why you like Pinker Pinker? A few seem to be starting to warm to her a bit.

Ha ha, no worries mate. Not sure about being a researcher mate, I daresay the only reason I enjoy it is because I only do it for horse racing, might get a bit tedious in a law firm.
