VJOKE

An elderly Sydney lady in her early 80’s from the Eastern Suburbs did her weekly shopping trip and upon returning to her car found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her lungs, “I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!”. The four men didn’t wait for a second threat. They jumped out and ran like mad. The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver’s seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition.  She tried and tried, and then she realized why. It was for the same reason she had wondered why there was a football, a Frisbee and two 12-packs of beer in the front seat. A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake. The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn’t stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a carjacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun. No charges were filed. The moral of the story is this:
If you’re going to have a senior moment… make sure it is memorable.

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 go to our Live Chat or WhatsApp Tim Cleary (0433-339347) and he will price up for you.

VFACTS 

The Group 1 Caulfield Guineas was first run at Caulfield Racecourse in 1881 when it was won by Wheatear and has always been run over 1,600 metres. Interestingly it was only during WWII that it left Caulfield for a few years as it was run at Flemington. In recent times Surround (1976) and Red Anchor (1984) have won the Caulfield Guineas/Cox Plate double. Sixteen horses have won the Caulfield Guineas/Victoria Derby double, including Tulloch (1957), Red Anchor (1984) and Mahogany (1993). Some of the notable winners include Heroic (1924), Ajax (1937), Hydrogen (1951), Tulloch (1957), Storm Queen (1966), Vain (1969), Surround (1976), Luskin Star (1977), Manikato (1978), Red Anchor (1984), Mahogany (1993), Redoute’s Choice (1999), Lonhro (2001), Weekend Hussler (2007), Starspangledbanner (2009) and last year’s amazing winner Super Seth…….…Watch a selection of some of the best Caulfield Guineas in recent times – CLICK HERE
