VJOKE

The Teacher asks the students in her Grade Three Class: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”  Little Johnny puts up his hand first and says: “I wanna be a billionaire when I grow up, I want to go to the most expensive restaurants and clubs in the world. Then I want to find me a beautiful Girl, I am going to give her a Ferrari worth over a million dollars, we will live in an apartment in Monte Carlo, have a mansion on the best Hawaiian beach and a private jet to travel around the world whenever we feel like it”. The teacher is totally shocked and not knowing what to do with this response from little Johnny decides not to acknowledge what he said and simply tries to continue with the lesson and moves to the next student.  “OK how about you, Sarah, what do you want to do when you grow up?”  “I thought I always wanted to be a nurse for as long as I can remember. But not now, forget about that idea, now I want to be Johnny’s Girl!”

VBET

This week’s $100 FREE VBET goes to Lance D. Good luck with your Free Bet Lance and thanks for opening an account in April . Thanks to everyone who has been sending the jokes in by email, there are some rippers, also a few that I laughed at but a little on the rude side…..

VH2H – Head to Head Betting

VICBET H2H Betting is available every race in two groups of three. It is the three Favourites (1st, 2nd and 3rd) combined in one H2H outcome and the second H2H is the 4th, 5th and 6th Favourites combined, excluding the Fav if it is Odds-on (under $2). This is a moving dynamic market so as the odds change for the actual race the odds will change for the H2H outcome. Also, you can pick your own H2H outcome, then simply text or WhatsApp Tim Cleary (0433-339347) and he will price up for you, this can be in a group of two or three. If you are new to VICBET send Tim a text and he will give you a free H2H wager up to $50, once a month……This is a novelty bet type so it is for the small players……

VFACTS 

The Group One Goodwood was first run in 1881 and was granted Group One status in 1980. It was previously a Handicap event hence the renaming from the Goodwood Handicap to The Goodwood. The race is the richest sprint race in autumn in Adelaide with $1,000,000 in prize money. The race generally has capacity fields and this upcoming Saturday twenty runners are expected to compete. In the past few decades two of the all time great sprinters to run and win include Takeover Target (2009) and Black Caviar (2012) and then win overseas. Two horses have won the race twice with Mostyn (1894–95) and Musket Belle (1911–12). Famous South Australian jockey John Letts holds the record with five wins in the event in 1961, 1972, 1973, 1977 and 1984….
