Startantes, waiting in the sky

Some 23 hours after the fact, we’re finally ready to get through Crazy Craig’s Picks of the Day, and it turned out our resident lunatic had just the 2 runners instead of 3 with Fifth Position not even bothering to live up to his name and being scratched on race morning at Caulfield, but the most important part of the 2 runners that did run is that Uncommon James absolutely shat it in at Eagle Farm as the Pick of the Day, and you know what that means….

ANOTHER PICK OF THE DAY SALUTES = SOUND THE LUCKY LIPS VICTORY TUNE

What a way to go into a month-long break for Crazy Craig… It makes me wonder how Crazy Colin will try and out-do his neighbour.

Pick of the Day: Uncommon James in Race 2 at Eagle Farm = WINNER ($2.30w/$1.26p)

What an absolute walk in the park that was for Uncommon James 1st Up, running like there was absolutely nobody else on the track, and a performance like that deserves another performance from the Uncommon James himself, James Brown:

SO GOOD, SO GOOD, I GOT YOU!

Value Pick: Fifth Position in Race 5 at Caulfield was scratched on race morning

No appearance from Fifth Position, and ultimately the win went to Lyrical Lad, who once won as the Random Eminem Pick last year at Pakenham.

Robbie Williams Pick: Angelic Miss E/W in Race 9 at Belmont = 5th
