Yesterday turned out to be pretty thin pickings for the most part. The man who did the best though was the season's fast finisher Steveo who managed to grab a couple of winners. His two were enough to see off the brilliant but unlucky Cyc and Reebs who flew out the stalls, but couldn't go on with the job. He lost second on count back. Steveo's victory boosts him to equal second with Stick on the leader board. Wonderful effort Steveo mate. A really interesting race takes place next week with the battle for second behind Sth. Our man Stick pretty much dropped a fiver in the dunny, then reached down and pulled out a hundy. He picked four losers and a non runner. Yep, it won and paid a handsome 2:10. Stick topped L2 with that total. So Steveo & Stick go to the post next Saturday with something to prove. Doalittle thought his 1:50 would see him relegated. It didn't. Three nothings saved his bare arse from a severe kicking. Dropping are Ron, Fabio & Paul. Promoted are Stick, Red & Chanin. Well played all. TOTAL WINS. 9. STH. 7. STEVEO & STICK. 4. REEBS. 3. BLUE, BUSTY, DOALITTLE & RON. 2. CYC, PAUL, REDCAT. 1. ARDENT, DEX, HAWK, ODDY, SMOKE & WOOLY. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEAGUE ONE. 1.

We stragglers live vicariously mate. Because some of us are useless, we have to take our highs wherever we can find them. Besides, with just the one week to go, I've got to whip up a bit of enthusiasm for the final round.
this coming Saturday has to be one of the all time great days of sport! apart from this coming to a finish there is the start of the Premier League season, arguably the biggest day at the Olympics, the Test match v Pakistan....anything else I have forgotten !!
