Just a query has anyone else been as unlucky as me with protests lately?

Maybe unlucky isnt the right word because the decisions were probably all correct.

none the less

launched Lord of the land three weeks ago, i was on the ropes after a dog of a day. Thought i had done a houdini. apparently not.

Had a fairly big go at our apache two weeks ago and had it one out in the quaddie.

Had a massive go at Ranger smith saturday

fortunatly got a fair bit of that back on malcolm/lord/radetzky all up on saturday

Glad Bossy could get the Lord to run straight

There is another one as unlucky as me.

I've done the same 3 weeks in a row.

All 3 occasions I've had a PARLAY and i've got the other legs correct but the 3 protest results have gone against me. It's literally cost me over $2000, and i'm only a $10 better

My mates started laughing at me 2 weeks ago and haven't stopped.

Was at Vic park about 3 weeks back on a boys trip when lord of the land protest was upheld.

Funniest thing was after the race when everyone was watching the replay and the cheer that went up when the head on shot was being shown and the followers of the second horse rose as 1 in celebrating the contact between the 2 horses.

Had a mate who was on the vanquished. He said he had been fujied ( after Ken Fuji on LOTL), which will be synonomus with our group forever more for any unlucky placing.

i was in the public area. We were the owdy lot in the white shirts ( although most of us had to pull the jackets on as it was freezing that day )We were up from Melbourne for the weekend for our annual indoor cricket team pilgrimage to the Adelaide test.

Basically had 3 or 4 mates who had backed Evasion and another mate who had backed LOTL. Ive never seen so many people glued to a TV screen for 20 minutes awaiting a protest result and then sprinting to the bookies when it was upheld.
