Not a lot of bet options available, and the base bet for triples is $1.30, so I'll try quinella boxes and hope for a couple of upsets.

I’m usually up once during the overnight, will watch live if I can, replays otherwise. Liking my wagers for no particular reason.

Some great racing but sadly a fall in the Sprint takes the shine off the day.

Watched the replays this morning without seeing the results first, was completely shocked by the horse stumbling on the turn and the subsequent chain reaction of carnage. That was very tough to witness unprepared. 

Happy to see Loves Only You head off to the breeding shed as a multiple GI winner. Pyledriver lost no respect with his good second place finish, and Golden Sixty is just a force of nature as a miler, now nineteen out of twenty.
