Right first time 1,903 Report post Posted July 30, 2016 Seems that Warriors chances rest with the John O'Shea runner 'Kinshachi' in the final race of the Comp today. Good news for the Warriors is, it's found a jockey, after none being listed for most of the week. If 'Kinshachi' gets up from it's nice draw`of barrier 2 then PJ will triumph over a shattered Howie, and Sylvia will wrest back the lead over Betty - makig it 4-2 to the Warriors. A very exciting finish, as I always knew it would be. 'Kinshachi' ...you pace yourself ...there's always next week, don't wear yourself out today.

Warriors would also prevail if PJ's roughie (Makatiti) were to win, or if by some miracle Prince of Brooklyn drifted to $6 and won. Birds vs Renegades Cubes & Rees have same selections so Cubes has won that one - if only Rees had picked an Ozzie best bet perhaps. Wall St Wolf would break the tied match in Kay's favour but Birds would still win on aggregate. Peter's roughie would also win Sarah her match, but Lloyd would pass Mark at the same time so doesn't help the Renegades. Renegades only chance appears to be the longshot maiden (Flake & Chips) winning for Wrinkles - what a way that would be to break your duck!!

Yes absolutely John...'Makatiti' for PJ would see the Warriors equalise at 3-3 and take the match out on aggregate dollars. Could it be any more exciting !

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted July 30, 2016 Kinshachi hit the front 200m out to the roar of the Warriors (and the Heat), and I'm guessing Howie had a sinking feeling, however Kinshachi just came to the end of it and the Broncos prevail. What a great finish and congrats to Howie and the Broncos for a great win! Hope that dreaded week off doesn't come back to haunt you. Good effort team Warriors - oh so close and live to fight another week. Right first time and Gordy55 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right first time 1,903 Report post Posted July 30, 2016 Phew ....that was close ....'Kinshachi' was given a gorgeous trip and loomed to win at the 200m mark - the Warriors' saviour looked like it was at hand. But then along came 'Divine Mr Artie' you wonderful little horse ! Congratulations to my Broncos' team-mates, whose continued top form has seen us through to the Grand` Final. Rob has been brilliant this back half of the comp, Gordy powered home today once we reached the Aussie races, Betty found the line nicely again once we reached the Aussie races, and Geoff was in front for most of his match until John kicked in to gear with a good win. Nekky is readying himself for the Grand Final in a fortnight where he is sure to go a big race. Thanks to John and his Warriors team for a very close and exciting match. We got the bob in, but you took us right to the wire. You are a top team, and we fully expect to see you in the Grand Final with us in a fortnight's time. Mreanwhile we Broncos ...we'll rest. Thanks for another great PJ Super Comp day of racing, PJ. Gordy55 and LastOf40 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted July 30, 2016 Heat vs Panthers1 HEAT 754.25 PANTHERS 998.4Rosina wins the scoreless tussle with Jenlove on countback (she had the runner-up in the last). Best bets to Alan and Graeme round out a good win for the Panthers, with the latter MOTM with 6 winners - there's that first draft pick form - just a little too late. Sharne was player of the day for the Heat who will play next week in the semi-final against the Sunliners. Panthers straight through to the B final and a week off next week.$315.20 Sharne $0.00 Mr Gee $146.00 Casper $164.00 Richard $191.00 Sir Castleton $487.40 Graeme $0.00 Jenlove $0.00 Rosina** $24.00 Maria $109.00 Gruff $78.00 Jack $238.00 Alan Sunliners vs Reapers4 SUNLINERS 1494.62 REAPERS 1408.6This match went crazy in the last race with five best bet winners (2 of them with the quinella). Sunliners hold on to win 4-2 with their captain Ray leading from the front with a stellar performance - watch out the Heat next week. Hesi finishes with a bang for the relegated Reapers. Can't say I'll miss the skeletons.

Lloyd Vivian 742 Report post Posted July 30, 2016 Just got in from a big day shifting my daughter & Son-in-law to discover I've missed out on a heap of stress and tension!!!! Abandoned meeting, woeful picking on my part, not helped by Caulfield being upgraded to a good when I did all my picks for a soft track - ending with 2 from 9 races, $50 in the bin, came 2nd, - BUT the mighty Thunderbirds still prevailed!!!! A man's gotta be happy after all that...well done Memphis...game honours to you today, but match honours to us so that sort of evens it up!
