A piece of the $1510.40 dividend was somewhat of a saviour after best bet ($100 win) Wawail was rolled in The Vanity, 1400m, and the $50 each-way ticket on Lucky Liberty was basically confetti as soon as the barriers opened.
Lucky Liberty's saddle slipped and he put on a bucking display out the back of the field before making good ground during the run and tiring to finish second last. Stick with him.
Dissident and Chester Road carry the hopes of the RDAV this Saturday on a bumper Blue Diamond Stakes program at Caulfield.
Once again, Brian Johnson, who owns horseracingshares.com.au, has tipped in $250 to bet with this weekend with all winnings to be donated to RDAV.
The Australian Guineas race day at Flemington on March 7 and the Australian Cup meeting, again at Flemington on March 14, round out the four-week charity challenge.
BEST BET
Dissident (Caulfield, Saturday, R5 #1)
Very short quote, but he deserves to be after a brilliant group 1 victory last start and being against a moderate field of rivals on Saturday.
Hit the line really strongly last time and it's really hard to see him running a bad race and getting beaten here.
BEST EACH-WAY
Chester Road (Caulfield, Saturday, R9 #5)
What a cracking run from the West Australian first-up last start.
He got back in the field and began making ground around the turn before being cramped for room and blocked for a run along the inside rail. Jockey Craig Williams then switched off heels and Chester Road rocketed to the line, beaten just two lengths.
EXOTIC
QUADDIE
1,2,3,9,12-5,6,7,10,13,16,18-2,5,7,8-1,5,6,7
Another difficult quaddie this weekend, but worth a shot with big fields and plenty of value to be had.
No real easy leg to narrow down, but another small percentage should give us a nice profit if we can get all four home.
THIS WEEKEND'S BETS
$100 win - Dissident (Caulfield, Saturday, R5 #1)
$50 each-way - Chester Road (Caulfield, Saturday, R9 #5)
$50 quaddie (8.92 per cent) - 1,2,3,9,12 - 5,6,7,10,13,16,18 - 2,5,7,8 - 1,5,6,7 (Caulfield, Saturday, R6-R9)
