A Large Ole Day

Today is a big big day for a fan like me.

Spring thoroughbred racing continues to raise the level with a bunch of top class races on the slate whilst Victoria has its second biggest day on the calendar with the Victoria Cup meeting this evening.

At The Heath, we have the Guineas, Toorak and newly-named Might And Power and north of the border we see the Silver Eagle and Spring Champion Stakes.

That's by day, by night we roll into a quartet of magnificent Group 1 events - Victoria Cup, Victoria Derby, Victoria Oaks and the Bill Collins Sprint for the trotters.

I have three young girls - who need A LOT of attention - and my wife is having a night on the town but I'll be sure not to miss a single big race...

Here's who I'm tipping.

CAULFIELD Race Two: (2) BUFFALO RIVER win $3.40. Race Seven: (3) LA MEXICANA win $4. Race Eight: (2) ARTORIUS win $4. Race Nine: (2) SUPERSTORM each way $12 Race Ten: (5) DELPHI win $3.70

RANDWICK Race Two: (1) CATAPULT each way $23. Race Four: (2) COASTWATCH $2. Race Five: (2) PAULELE $2.25.

Race Four: (4) MUFASA METRO win $4. Race Seven: (10) LADIES IN RED win $1.75. Race Nine: (2) IM READY JET each way $10.
