At the request of Philadelphia 76ers coach Brett Brown, former team great and NBA Hall of Famer Allen Iverson gave some words of encouragement to a squad in search of its first win of the season.What we have to understand is I hope the message registers, Iverson said. Thats all I can do is hope my voice means something to guys that are younger than me, and us guys that paved the way. ... If only one guy got it, then Im happy.Iverson said he thinks the 76ers will be a solid unit, even if theyre the only team in the league without a win.Right now, everybody is pretty frustrated, center Jahlil Okafor said Wednesday after a 122-115 overtime loss to the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. We thought we just let that one go, but we know we are right there.Honestly, its kind of deflating getting so close to a win. ... Now, we have to be mentally tough.Wednesdays loss dropped the 76ers to 0-7. Theyll face off with the Pacers again on Friday in Philadelphia.The 76ers have seen a rash of injuries decimate their young core. Ben Simmons (broken right foot), Nerlens Noel (right knee) and Jerryd Bayless (left wrist ligament damage) have been sidelined since the preseason. Joel Embiid?has been limited as the team seeks to carefully manage his workload and the stress on his right foot during games and practices.And what message does Iverson have for the Sixers faithful?I want the fans here to be patient with those guys, Iverson said. Weve got the talent. Its here. Just be patient with them. And I just want those guys to believe in each other and trust in each other. Thats it. The future is bright for us.Ashley Young England Jersey .

So its little surprise that fillies have struggled against colts whose connections are hell-bent on locking in their futures at stud.What is odd is their frankly abysmal record.Remove Forensics from the argument -- her win came in the autumn of 2008 when Equine Influenza wiped out the 2007 renewal - and 32 fillies have tried and failed to win the Golden Rose since the races inception in 2003.Followers of this years favourite, Omei Sword, currently $3.70 with UBET, will hope this gender-based trend is no more than an anomaly. The filly, trained by champion NSW handler Chris Waller, shot to the top of the markets with an impressive first-up win in the Group II Silver Shadow Stakes over 1200m at Randwick.Omei Sword, by High Chaparral out of former top racer Irish Lights, should relish the rise to seven furlongs, but its unlikely she beat much at headquarters and her one attempt on rain-affected going, in the Group I Sires Produce Stakes, was the worst run of her four-start career.The favourite looks no value at the current quote, and it might be prudent to look to the races traditional lead-up, the Group II Run To The Rose, to find this years winner.That race was won by Astern, who showed he had trained on when overwhelming the fitter and more-fancied Star Turn a fortnight ago over 1200m. There was three-and-a-half lengths back to stablemate Impending, who reopposes on Saturday, giving the form a rock-solid look.Astern is unbeaten on soft tracks -- in fact his one and only defeat came in the Group I Golden Slipper, when legitimate excuses could be offered -- and barrier 12 mightnt be so bad if the rain comes and the fence becomes a no-go zone.Cases can be made for El Divino, Winxs half-brother, and Divine Prophet, but Godolphin has an enviable record in the Golden Rose, and Astern can become the operations fourth winner in the past eight years.Recommended bet: Astern to win @ $4.40 with UBET.Makybe Diva StakesThe Group I Makybe Diva Stakes might be named after the mare synonymous with the Melbourne Cup, but the 1600m event is anything but the domain of the two-mile brigade.Jeune, back in 1994, was the last Melbourne Cup winner to come through the old Craiglee Stakes; since then, Shocking is the only Cup winner to have won the Makybe Diva (the entire claimed the races in different years).A quarter of this years edition hold an entry to the Melbourne Cup, including reigning champ Prince Of Penzance, but its the sprinter-milers who feature at the head of betting, with Darren Weirs Black Heart Bart the $2.25 favourite with UBET.The former WA galloper was a dominant winner of the Group I Memsie Stakes on resumption, and is the races rightful favourite.BBut the gelding has never won beyond 1400m, and its likely hell encounter going softer than he wants on Saturday.dddddddddddd. What is more, favourites have an indifferent record in the Makybe Diva, so Black Heart Bart is worth opposing.In a race that lacks depth for a Group I, Tony McEvoys Alpine Eagle appeals at a decent price.Alpine Eagle was just fair in the Memsie, but 1400m is not his trip and that was just the comeback gallopers second run in a year. Rewind to his three-year-old days, and Alpine Eagle was running Wandjina to a lip in the Group I Australian Guineas, while as a raw four-year-old he finished a close-up sixth in last years Makybe Diva.The history of the race reads well for five-year-olds second-up from a spell, and at $12 with UBET its worth taking a punt that Alpine Eagle will make up for lost time and announce himself a new spring player.Recommended bet: Alpine Eagle each-way @ $12 with UBET.Over The OddsFlemington Race 1, No.9 Authoritarian. $20 with UBETLast years VRC St Leger winner, Authoritarian is one-from-one at Flemington and should not be such a big price if -- and that is if -- the forecast rain arrives.Authoritarian has a good record on rain-affected going and can give value hunters a good sight from the front in a race that doesnt possess an abundance of pace.Rosehill Race 7, No.3 Vashka. $15 with UBETFlopped when first-up, and in the market, in the Show County, hence his generous price in Saturdays Theo Marks.It would pay to ignore Vashkas failure at Randwick. The Godolphin gelding returns to his favourite venue -- hes won five from six at Rosehill -- is a winner second-up, and beat subsequent Stradbroke Handicap winner Under The Louvre last prep.Under The OddsFlemington Race 5, No.1 Defcon. $4 with UBETImpressive first-up win in the McNeil Stakes, but the Danehill Stakes has more depth and its unlikely barrier one down the Flemington straight will suit.Defcon has to concede weight all-round, is yet to win on the anticipated soft going, and is terrible value at the $4 mark.Best BetRosehill Race 6, No.1 Astern. $4.40 with UBETAs outlined above, fits the profile of a Golden Rose winner. Should simply be too good for his rivals.Lay of The DayFlemington Race 6, No.2 Xtravagant. $4.60 with UBETMuch-hyped Kiwi who is one start for one flop in Australia. Undoubtedly a fine talent, but is meeting some very handy straight-track horses in the Bobbie Lewis Quality and should be watched only until his New Zealand form translates across the ditch.Multi of The WeekendRosehill Race 6, No.1 Astern - PLACE @ $1.76Flemington Race 4, No.11 Bon Aurum PLACE @ $2.90Flemington Race 6, No.1 Under The Louvre - PLACE @ $1.95Multi price: $9.95 with UBET ' ' '
