Dammit! I was thinking about driving down there with my laptop

[Naffman]

I thought you lived in QLD? That'd be about an 8 hr drive one-way wouldn't it?

Might continue on to Pakenham instead

[Naffman]

Show those Victorians how you do it!

What about going to Redcliffe?

[The dog of ry]

I've thought about ontracking, but it's probably more hassle than it's worth.... Plus Redcliffe trots are about as low as a man can go!!

[Naffman]

I love trading Redcliffe but it seems they always put the tracks in the worst towns.

I've experimented on course a little. Not enough to come to a firm conclusion.

It's a totally different experience and would require a bit of getting used to.

Ideally I think you would need to set yourself up next to a screen with the course feed or attend a course which has a large infield screen.

The two tracks i've attended(Taree & Cessnock)had tiny 14inch CRT tv's.

Wow! Gosford off as well.

What a horrible week.

[Naffman]

Hasn't stopped raining here for about 3-4 days here, Randwick definitely in doubt considering all you have to do is spit on the track and its soft

36K matched at Pakenham R3, now we know the Sky and Ch7 battle is having an affect.

[blueport]

It's been very quiet indeed.

I think you can disregard the Crownbet increase mentioned in this article. Pretty sure they were offering money back on 2nd for the entire meeting.

Very interesting article, it certainly is showing in the markets.

I might as well wait till tonight (Globe, Melton and Albion Park) as they trade really well as I've currently earned $7.53!
