Quite a few of the corporates are now offering rewardpoints. When I get these I make a point of using them for Exotics like all ups, Quinellas, Trifetacs etc. if even for a flexi amount. The occasional win is much more rewarding tham just popping a few bucks on a favourite. Today I redeemed $75 and my return if successful will be aorund $300 to $400 if my selected specials get up. A lot for a little. ur Gold Club horse ran a close 2nd yesterday and ran the fastest sectional of the day after the race was run at a dawdling pace which caused our gal to overerace and then she shied as another runner came out in the straight. Those two things cost a bout a length or more. Small fields are simply not ideal. In a bigger field the two leaders would have been runover if they tried to run at that pace. I spent time in the new Inglis Hotel next door to the Warwick Farm racecourse yesterday. What a magnificent Hotel complex! Theycatered for over 5,000 patrons last Saturday evening spread amongst a large number of dining and exhibition spaces. I felt like setting up a Racing Seminar right then and there. Well it’s a thought!
