BOOM!

Joyous Harmony in the last at Geraldton on Thursday. She's drawn an inside gate this time and, with a bit of luck, this could be her turn to get a win.

Invitto goes for her 3rd win in a row at the Gold Coast on Saturday.

I will leave some $$ in the account :P I started well, got the value on the place for running second and picked the exacta. I am $300 in front. I just need the Bon to run in the money and I will have Christmas covered.

The Jockey butchered Charlevoix. I didn't go too hard on it as it was too short money wise. Better odds next start.

I killed it yesterday! Backed Candlelight Star in the last at Ascot and got a decent % of the tri AND 1st 4 :)

Ever since a bird shat on my face, 3 weeks ago, I can't put a foot wrong. Hopefully my luck holds out until Tuesday.

If Invitto can put up a good show in this race, we'll be heading towards the MM's country cup, a $200k race.

I have Alpenglow all up into Invitto EW for $10. No good. Oh well that's the joys of punting.
