Randwick's a good 4 this weekend. I presume the weather's improved?

I can’t remember when it last rained.

Shot from the balcony just now. Glimpse of Harbour bridge in the background just poking out above the tree line. :)

Melbourne back in lockdown. Sydney in lockdown. I suspect (obs a guess) just pushes people on to the exchange.

After last year, my brother in Melbourne has swiftly returned home to Tasmania each lockdown. But after only returning to Melbourne last week, this lockdown was so quick he was too slow leaving. And this could be another long one too.

Turns out that gambling on Astra Cloteca for the vaccine rollout was a mistake that much of Australia is now paying for. My wife and I are in our mid-20s and we have our final does of Pfizer next week. All extended family our age or older will now be fully vaccinated so there's that comfort if/when there is an outbreak of covid.

I am not convinced racing will be 100% to continue for the rest of the year...

Winx Stakes in two weeks time. I can already feel Randwick getting more lively. :D

Is that the iconic bridge that's lit up with fireworks on New Year's Day?

Yep, here’s what New Years looks like.

I would like to ask if something similar is happening to someone in the Australian in play markets. Last time, always once a week when I make some profit that I see in the hedge spread over all the horses. After a few minutes, I lose about 30-50 euros from my account. When I look at the profit and loss is there really such a loss for the market. I solved it on a live chat but they could not help me and the only option is to make screens and send them proof.
I have been trading in other markets for 6 years and I have been doing Australia for a very short time, but I have not encountered something like this before. :cry:

Something like that can happen if there is a non-runner (late removal) that isnt removed from the market before the race starts.

Old mate calling at Mt Isa has got two $1.01 horses beaten. Ignoring the audio, neither were a surprise. Certainly an interesting calling technique. :shock:
