Did he give all you guys a head up on his tips or did he keep them to himself?

When it comes to horse racing I would not know the backside of a horse ( reminds me of another current post on the forum) from the front end.

Oh well, I think I will stick to growing orchids for a hobby. That still costs me enough money these days!!!

Yeah, 20 winners, all back to back - but, odds on in 19 of those wins. I don't think I qualify as Percy the Punter.

Nothing seems to be cheap when it comes to thoroughbreds. I see Coolmore Stud here in the Hunter Valley (owned by an Irish racing millionare) has just refenced one of their paddocks - the cost a cool 1 million dollars!!

The swells and their money are soon parted, fortunes are lost more than won in the thoroughbred business!

Never have been into gambling, apart from orchids that is.

Good luck to the BC3 syndicate who shelled out 5mill today on Black Caviar's half brother.

Me too! Orchids are quite enough of a gamble with a small flutter on the ponies on big days only.

HA!
A prominent online bookie took a bet of US$50,000 on the winner from a punter in Salinas in the seconds leading up to the race.
I will keep my tips a secret in future. I had AU$20 on the nose. Good guys run last all the time.
