Spikecity 749 Report post Posted May 12, 2018 I see yesterday the TAB opened Blair Orange up again @ $1.01 after Dex drove 5 at F Park but closed it again after Blair got a winner last night. They probably don't realize that Dexters win in the non tote also counts as a win. I think Dexter has a realistic chance now and is excellent value @ $12 - just got another at Winton which puts him 24 behind. I also feel he will be given more drives by John and Robert if it gets close which will help. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booby Bec 84 Report post Posted May 12, 2018 Can't see it happening, Blair is going everywhere. The plundering of palmy has made the difference Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree but $12 is tempting - he should get two more today and that will narrow it to 22 Value Bell 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taku Umanga 194 Report post Posted May 12, 2018 Only two meetings left at Palmy this season though ..... difference is 22 now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy 475 Report post Posted May 12, 2018 Yip Dexter certainly has had a better week than Blair.I'd dare say that at some point Blair may head up North to Auckland/Cambridge if Dex carries on getting multiple wins a day.Could be a battle that goes right down to the last week of the season.

JackSprat 947 Report post Posted May 13, 2018 11 weeks and 48 meeting left in the season. Plenty of time for either driver to get on a winning streak! But ... It's hard to see Dexter winning from here though. You'd expect Blair to get at least 230 for the season the way he's going, which means Dexter would have to win 6 races a week - every week - for the rest of the season to get anywhere near him. Barring anything untoward halting Blair's season, he's nigh on unbeatable from here! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangi 73 Report post Posted May 13, 2018 This will go down to wire Dexter will get the drives on his fathers horses in Auckland and I see his brother John is supplying him with drives already Blair/House have the Central District meeting left Let the battle continue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
