Plumpton

You're more than welcome to go for the Melbourne Cup.

I'm going to go to the four o'clock race at Plumpton this afternoon.

The 4pm,

not the 4am tomorrow.

No, no, the 4pm this afternoon.

And I should say just that if anyone is reading the Daily Mirror today and they see that under the Newsboy logo, list of tips that Coastal Command is the selection I'm going to go with the Boss Bear who is a horse who's making his first appearance for James Owen was a winner at the track for Gary and Josh Moore last season I think he's well treated drying ground will help and I think you'll get off to a winning start for the James Owen team at Plumpton this afternoon.

So it's the four o'clock race at Plumpton and the selection is number two, the Boss Bear.

Thanks, Dave.

But he tends to find a mark in the 120s tough to win from.

He was a winner at Sutherland October of 1-1-4, about a wide margin in a in a poorly contested contest and was beaten at Plumpton last time out by Tapley, although Tapley was well handicapped.

That was at least as good an effort, but he's crept up a little bit further in the way of Stunmark of a 1-2-3, and you'd think he's going to be vulnerable off that.

He's got fitness on his side, which is important at this time of year, but...

Slash agricultural in...

Plumpton.

Plumpton.

so we drew a square he said so the way you draw hold the pencil lightly and you just just short little strokes and then as you more and more the square will start showing itself and then very naturally you'll just press a little bit harder and then the square shows itself i was fucking loving that i was like come on so we did that we did a triangle and then and then to draw a circle do you know how to draw a circle circle joe No.

Okay, sit tight and have some music,

I can't afford to do it.

I can't afford to go, here's your crap card at Plumpton.

I'll give you four grand to sponsor that.

I literally can't do it.

[laughs]

... 'cause Mark Waugh has backed every single winner from Plumpton in the last two hours." He ...

And, and, and I particularly loved the fact that he was the yin to the yang of his brother-

Mm

I have to start my stock low because I've got to get it off my chest.

You are the honest king of Plumpton.

Yeah, exactly.

The honest king of Plumpton.

If anyone is a regular listener to Edge Rush over the years, they'll know that This is something that's been a bugbear of mine for years now.

I'd say countless years, it feels like.

Getterose was your...

She was your first winner whenever you came back, wasn't she, down in Plumpton? That was a couple of weeks ago.

You haven't had a lot of rides since then.

You've just sort of eased your way back into it a little bit?
