i was at home on saturday arvo sick as a dog, and i looked at the form guide, and my favourite horse Radetzky March was listed in Race 5. the race was in 30 minutes so when the girlfriend turned up i told her to drive me to the TAB.

Radetzky March was scratched

I had $200 in my wallet so i had a 3 leg parlay at Sydney for $10 costing $40

i had rationalize + our apache + lord of the land

if you look up the results, you'll see that the first 2 won which meant i had collected $80 odd and had $140 odd on Lord Of The Land

listening on the radio, I told everyone that i'd expect LOTL to be last, which he was, and to fly home late. when the commentator said 200m to go and hadn't mentioned LOTL i was spewing. BUT THEN "and LOTL gets a dream inside run and hits the lead. he's shifting plenty of ground but he wins"

i thought it would be paying $2.50 at most. $3.80 they tell me!!!! WOW! $520 odd collect

DOUBLE PROTEST. and after 30 minutes. UPHELD

my $600 collect turns into $80. all i could do was laugh

I reckon you were stiff.
No doubt if Lord of The Land runs straight he wins.
He came from a couple of lengths behind Beadman's horse and finished in front of it.
Terry Jones horse slightly bumped Beadman's horse inwards.
Its hard to say how much Beadman's horse lost from the bump it received off Fuji's horse(if any).
I know the margin was short but I think you were unlucky.
Protest could of went either way.
I had a quinella with Jones horse and Lord of The Land but there is no way Jones horse was going to go past Lord of The Land and I think Beadman's horse was lucky it got bumped.
