Morning News

A pretty nice day, yesterday and a pretty good start to the month.

We finished August with a strike rate (for the top rated horse) of 27.26% which has to be our best August ever.

After the stress of yesterday's early morning problems I shall be continuing implementing bug fixes today; these are aimed at improving the earlybird preview ratings. I'll let you know how I get on.

Something to make you smile...

Drinking One Night

Two married buddies are out drinking one night when one turns to the other and says, "You know, I don't know what else to do. Whenever I go home after we've been out drinking, I turn the headlights off before I get to the driveway. I shut off the engine and coast into the garage. I take my shoes off before I go into the house, I sneak up the stairs, I get undressed in the bathroom. I ease into bed and my wife STILL wakes up and yells at me for staying out so late!"

His buddy looks at him and says, "Well, you're obviously taking the wrong approach. I screech into the driveway, slam the door, storm up the steps, throw my shoes into the closet, jump into bed, rub my hands on my wife's butt and say, 'Lets do it!' And, she's always sound asleep."

Poison

A man goes to see the Rabbi. 'Rabbi, something terrible is happening and I have to talk to you about it.'

The Rabbi asked, 'What's wrong?'

The man replied, 'My wife is poisoning me.'

The Rabbi, very surprised by this, asks, 'How can that be?'

The man then pleads, 'I'm telling you, I'm certain she's poisoning me, what should I do?'

The Rabbi then offers, 'Tell you what. Let me talk to her, I'll see what I can find out and I'll let you know.'

A week later the Rabbi calls the man and says, 'Well, I spoke to your wife. I spoke to her on the phone for three hours.

You want my advice?'

The man said yes and the Rabbi replied, 'Take the poison.'

Today

Today's early test ratings show 56 rated races from eight meetings.

Have a great day's racing!

As always...

My kindest regards
