Thumbs Up & Big Fist is where the Mug Punting team take a humourous look at what's hot and what's not from the weekend’s racing.
THUMBS UP
Nash Rawiller
Rode a winning double in Sydney...but it was the ride on Gold Trail was genius. The MP Team weren't exactly sure what he was doing at the 600m when he had it 6 wide, but came to the outside fence, found dry ground and won by 3 lengths.....GENIUS and well worth a thumbs up.
Nick Hall
The MP Team has been a massive fan of this jock for ages and he rode a winning treble on Saturday. The ride on Light Vision was smart, the one on Efficient strong and the one on All Silent was freakily good after looking to have struck trouble. Massive thumbs up Nicky....hope Lloyd keeps you on Efficient for the rest of the carnival. You deserve it.
Efficient
WOW..!!! Thumbs Up...any chance another Melbourne Cup.
BIG FIST
Vigor
Ran on with a distinct lack of vigor. The bubble has burst and you take off the mask my boy....you aren't that good. Fisted
Sydney Weather
Why do all the BIG Sydney race meetings appear to be cursed with torrential rain and heavy tracks. Maybe it's time to visit the Chinese way (Beijing Olympics) and tampering with the weather to get a decent track.....actually there is that whole drought issue I guess.
