Further to the article in "Punt To Win" I wanted to share some of the more inane comments and absolute gems by tipsters and racecallers...

Bryan Martin -"Pogo Stick is going up and down in the one spot." :lol:

Ron Papps(Pappslotto) - "The numbers are 14 - 2 -8 across the line, or was it 12, well anyway the favorite won, and an outsider got up for second".

Bill Collins (absolute gentleman and great caller) - "Kingston Town can't win from there!"

"He will go down in equine immortality" - great quote.

Ian Craig - "Fair Dinkum he must have tippy- toed along the running rail."

The most frustrating comment from any tipster is, "Whatever beats him will win." or "He just wins!"

And how about this ... Tim Martin, son of racecaller Bryan Martin is on the MVRC young members' committee because he is the son of Bryan Martin, not for his contribution to racing. Well if you call hobby training a contribution?

Some absolute gems there...anyone like to add more?
