When it comes to music, everyone has a totally unique taste. So when a song comes on to perfectly fit your mood, it kind of feels like magic.

Download into a credit karma today and get everything you need to outsmart the system. Nice work Lincoln. That's the sort of gear we like on a Monday morning here on SCN Tazzy Breakfast. And the sort of gear we like as well as this man who wanders in on a Monday and Friday from Taz Racing Racing is a way of life. Visit it's while we race.com.au. It's Matty Reid and Tim's putting his finger up like he wants to say something off the top of your snapper. Yeah I feel like I'm at school and I have to put my hand up to ask brandy for the next week. I'm used to seeing that right. Watching you in the brake with that cup that you've got. Is that a hot chocolate or whatever you're drinking? Hot chalky. Yeah. God you're into it, aren't you? I was actually thought you were going to eat the cup there at one stage in that right. I can't believe you wasted 30 seconds on that. Snapper nice to see you. What happened? Just run us through all the highlights from yesterday's race as well. There were nine races. Open handicap was won by Turk Warrior. Turk, good to see him back in the winner's circle. There are a few different doubles. Sarah Cotton, the clerk of the course, trained two winners on that program. Make a decision was an impressive winner through the day's quality leg, singing car, had a double there as well. Unfortunately, there was a fall in race four, which was a bit of a scary moment. So Anthony Darman and Hailey McCarthy came off their respective mounts. Hailey McCarthy, broken wrist and collarbone, I believe. And Darman's pretty stiff and sore, but I think he's escaped serious injury. So been a while since we've had a fall on a racetrack down here. And thankfully it happens very rarely, but both jockeys escaped very, very serious injury. And there was a slight delay, but we were able to press on. So track race really well out there, and it was a nice, healthy crowd too. I saw a couple of VIPs slip in late in the afternoon. SCN's flash lit, go along with Tasmanian cricket royalty mark. David Colgrave just snuck out there. That was a real treat for a July meeting. Spoiled, nine good races and some legendary people of Tasmania. Anyway, snap, Launceston harness last night. Niak continued to track towards the bow tide with another big winner. I'm just asked with the crowds last night. Did you notice they were a little bit thinner in Launceston last night with the World Championship of Legends being beamed across the globe? I wasn't in Launceston last night, but I would be surprised if there was a big crowd on track there. Sunday night, winter probably doesn't drag them in, and a few probably would have stayed home to watch you for sure. But yes, Niak got the job done. DiGawi got the job done too. It was a program of shorties in Launceston last night. The magician broke the track record over the 1680 meters. The first three crossed the line in the Golden Mile all broke the track record. So he's absolutely flying at the moment. Magician, not sure where he heads as a grand final, whether he'll head back across the water and look for some targets there. But yeah, we've got some good paces down here at the moment. They're all kind of hitting form at the right time. Absolutely. And what about the Greyhounds tonight, Stapper? We've got the Tazi Oaks and the Derby Finals. The Oaks and the Derby dealer, I think, will be winning the Derby for Ted Medhurst. Absolutely loves it up there in Launceston, outstanding record. I think he's a dad. Yeah, well, maybe, right as God goes around in the Staring Race over 720 meters. It'll be very, very short, but always good to see a superstar like him going around. And the Oaks is probably more open, Bruno. So that's probably the one that might potentially throw up a result, but a good card there. Now, here there was a safety concern yesterday at the track. Is that right? Safety concern. Genuine safety concern, being told. So apparently you and your young bloke Emmett, two and a half years old, at the races, having a kick of the footy on the home straight. Well, we're on the main grass. I would say it's on the home straight. Well, that's what I'm just going with the mail I've got. And he didn't see Emmett too much our texture, because he was retrieving your shanks. The bushes beside the mounting yard, apparently. I was going to say, Bruno, my mail was that it wasn't the Youngfellers' kick that was causing the safety concerns. Well, it's a funny story here, actually. It's not footy related. I took the young bloke down to Tazzy Golf Club a couple of weeks ago, just to try and kill a bit of time. And was in the bar after the round, take him in for a little apple juice. And one of the blokes that was in the group behind me said that your young bloke chips better than you do. He's obviously seeing me just shank a couple near the green. So that's fair. I think it's the same with footy too Emmett. Emmett kicks it well. I've got the snapper nickname from footy back in the day, Bruno, but I think I've lost a few of those skills. For 110,000 people attend Tazman in race meetings every year.
