horsebuck$ roundup 19th November
Another good day at the office sweetened with a trifecta in Eagle Farm race 6 Fiery Heights 1st Be The Magic 2nd Desert Man 3rd for a very handsome dividend Vic. $3,222.80 N.S.W. $2,525.80 Qld. $ 2,538.10 so trifecta takers had another winning day. Be The Magic which ran 2nd in this race was also our best longshot, thought he was going to salute at the 50m until Fiery Heights appeared on the scene, paid a very healthy place dividend of $10.80 on the tote and started $81 fixed Qld. We had three good winners at Rosehill R2 Girl Sunday $5.80, R3 Littleracketeer $5.00 and R8 Choice We Had $3.10. Also had Emerald City Eagle Farm R1 , which ended up getting to a good price in $2.40 and won convincingly. A swag of placegetters in each state including Sundance $1.70,Nicconi Leggera $1.80, In His Stride $2.40, Be The Magic $10.80, Herne’s Oak $2.70, Red Excitement $2.20,Cheeky Babe $1.40, American Genius $1.20, Chapel Road $3.00, Golden Spin $ 1.50. Our best bets for the programme B R9 Lord Coconuts he was running home nicely then got held up briefly at the 100m before the gap opened up again and he ran on strongly for fourth, having said that he probably still could have won. Ballarat race 2 Mighty Like, he was never going to win as the racing pattern (leader friendly track) never suited him and finally Salmanazar maybe just a total forget run. All in all a pretty good day but we are always looking to snare that elusive quaddie, our biggest to date was back in July $10,200 when Magnajoy saluted in the last leg at big odds. So to all horsebuck$ followers have a good week and until 9am next Saturday . HORSEBUCK$
