It may not seem like a big deal but the one winner for the SMS service yesterday broke a minor drought. Aftre a $5 winner wednesday (started #3.7 but $5 available) we had 5 losers in a row (mostly placed) and then a $1.70 winner yesterday which paid around $1.40 at the finish. In theory on a 50% strike rate 18 losers in a row is possible but havent seen it yet. Longest is about 8 so far but then weve also had runs of 5,6, and 7 in a row winning. Yesterdays winner was alos the only Lighthouse selection for the day. Lighthouse had just one win from 5 on Saturday. Today we have the Alice Springs Cup and the first horse you should look at is anyhting from the Whittle stable. The same applies to the other races. They always throw up something. You just watch and see.
