Horse Racing Greats to Retire

Thoroughbred Times: Today's News: "Coolmore's Group 1 winners Ad Valorem and Aussie Rules and champions George Washington and Hurricane Run will retire after their planned starts in the Breeders' Cup World Championships at Churchill Downs on November 4. "

Breeders' Cup High Hopes

...for 2007 when the greatest horse raing event will be held at Monmouth Park APP.COM - Breeders' Cup can invigorate state's racing industry | Asbury Park Press Online: " in exactly one year, Monmouth Park will host the biggest day of racing in the world Breeders' Cup 2007.
It is hard to quantify how important the Breeders' Cup is to Monmouth County and New Jersey. The best-case scenario projects a one-time surge of revenues for the host area of between $60 million and $100 million. The event brings national and international fans and media to our area, increasing exposure to this great sport and our state. Breeders' Cup has also caused the owners of Monmouth Park to update the facility with 2007 technology while still retaining the charm it is known for."

Better start saving now to have any chance of getting to the Breeders Cup 2007!

US Gambling Law & Where to Play poker

The new "Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act" has left US poker players asking "Where can I Play Online Poker now? The basic answer is those sites which operate from an offshore base....

Sites Accepting Both US & Non-US Players
- Bodog - http://www.pokerletter.org/bodog.php
- Mansion Poker - http://www.pokerletter.org/mansion.php

Sites No Longer Accepting Players From The United States
- Titan Poker - http://www.pokerletter.org/titan.php
- Party Poker - http://www.casinoletter.org/party1.php
- Pacific Poker - http://www.casinoletter.org/pacific.php
- Noble Poker - http://www.casinoletter.org/noble.php
- Poker Room - http://www.pokerletter.org/pokerroom.php
- Full Tilt Poker - http://www.casinoletter.org/fulltilt.php"

This has to be hurting all the European based poker sites yet they have all meekly fallen into line!

Scoop6 Races Saturday 14th October 2006

The scoop six is on channel four televised horse races each Saturday so for next Saturdays 14th October 2006 Scoop6 races you need to look at channel 4 Racing : Next "SATURDAY 14TH OCTOBER 14.00 – 16.30 NEWMARKET & KEMPTON PARK" if you want to get ahead of the game and grab a slice of the likely One million prize pool - fiendishly difficult but I would just love to become a millionnaire by gambling on horse racing rather than the lottery!

BBC SPORT | | Horse Racing | Fallon will not ride in Kentucky

BBC SPORT | | Horse Racing | Fallon will not ride in Kentucky: "
Very dissapointing that Kieren Fallon will miss the Breeders' Cup meeting after opting not to proceed with his application to ride in the US. This follows him being stopped from riding in the Arlington Million recently.

He has scored two wins from ten rides at this prestigeous horse racing meeting - Ouija Board in the 2004 Filly & Mare Turf and Islington, 2003 Filly & Mare Turf.

RaceHorseMagazine-Fallon Withdraws Attempt To Ride In Breeders' Cup: Fallon is still "allowed to ride in several other countries, including France and Ireland"

Guardian Unlimited Sport | Horse racing | Ron Cox's betting week

Who wants to be a millionaire? Winning the Scoop Six this week could be the best chance for small stakes horse raing punters but if last weeks results are anything to go by form books are out the window and long shot winners the order of the day.

Guardian Unlimited Sport | Horse racing |: "Channel 4's six televised races from York and Bangor on Saturday could make someone a millionaire. The Tote's multiple bet, the Scoop6, has not been won for the last five Saturdays and this weekend's pot is forecast to top £600,000. A lucky winner would then be chasing a bonus in the region of £400,000 a week later."

The article states that 50% of large pools like this are won by syndicates - I have not looked at the fields yet but lets hope they are large so that the syndicates cannot cover all combinations for profit and give us £2 a go punters a chance, even if it is a real outsiders chance.

Guardian | Horse racing | Sheikh snaps up bargain

The high cost of rivalry in the horse racing world....

Guardian Unlimited Sport | Horse racing | Sheikh snaps up bargain: "Sheikh Mohammed's decision to boycott the offspring of the Coolmore Stud's stallions has cramped his style somewhat at the bloodstock sales over the last 12 months, but he found a lot to like at Tattersalls yesterday, as the auctioneers opened their important October sale.
Lot 17, to be precise. The son of Pivotal, a half-brother to both George Washington, this year's 2,000 Guineas winner had been marked down as a possible sale-topper from the moment the catalogue was published, and less than an hour after business got underway, he was knocked down to John Ferguson, Sheikh Mohammed's bloodstock advisor, for 1.2m guineas."

But, oh, the high returns from stud fees..are these the real riches of horse racing?

"Two years ago, George Washington was the most expensive yearling sold at auction in Europe, when he made 1.15m guineas at the same sale. He is likely to be a Coolmore stallion this time next year, repaying his purchase price many times...."

Winning Horse Racing Tip

Nice start to the month for Gambling Housewife horse racing tips with a winner advised at 4/1, I hope you got on early as it was backed in to 9/2.

I would have preferred to win the unique Tote horse racing bet, the Scoop Six on Saturday, even a place would have been amazing as only two tickets won the place pool each winning just short of £40,000.... I can still drream though as the win fund rolls over to next Saturday giving £426,153 win pool before a single bet is placed.
