Agreed mate - he had absolutely no luck today, I reckon at one stage he was midfield and then Rodd had no other option than to go back to last. Watching the other races today you almost had to be in the middle of the track where the placegetters came from to be any chance of winning. Combine...
2009 - Shocking - Ran over 2400m in the Herbert Power on CC Day then into the Lexus on Derby Day and the won the cup on Tuesday. Seemed to suit him last year Brizz - he is a much better horse than he showed today, he pulled up sore and he had a horror run in the race with a big weight - it...
Might as well throw my two bob in as well
1. SHOCKING
Top pick for me - going enormous this campaign. Has drawn beautifully, Rodd will be able to get him in a great spot and he does have good heave form, winning the Makybe Diva this Spring and a very close second on a bottomless track in the...
Caulfied Cup is a very hard race this year. As usual the Sydney horses look to have the best form but it doesn't always work out that way. Metal Bender was enormous last start, Herculian Prince gets in extremely well at the weights. You probably have to forgive Dariana for her poor run last...
I like 2 horses in Melbourne tomorrow
Race 3 Horse 5 - Linton
Race 8 Horse 5 - Jesse's Girl - Each way special I reckon!
Good luck if you are having a punt
Shame Kav lost his best Cup chance - Shamoline Warrior - to injury.
For anyone who is interested I reckon there are a couple of good things going around today;
SR7 H13 Thankgodyou'rehere
SR5 H3 Herculian Prince
Also a really nice horse first up today at each way odds;
Doomben Race 3 Horse 7...
I am really pleased for him - it's always good to see people with obvious talent get things back on track. I am amazed though that other teams really haven't sent any attacking raids his way since he has been a Titan - Kevin Gordon isn't the best defender either - you would think there would be...
He certainly looks to have come back well Brizz and he has an awesome Flemington record. It was an enormous win last start, especially since he was carrying my cash at 20-1!!!!
He will have to be on his game 100% this year though with 57kg in the cup - hope he goes well for you mate!
Pretty sure RL was his main game at school - I think he was mentioned in all that GPS scholarship stuff earlier this year - maybe something about Churchie just throwing a scholarship at him to get him over from Springwood high where he was playing league?
Was that Kurt Mann Coxy? I think he has played a game or 2 for the Comets in Q-Cup this year??? I wonder if he has a contract with any of the NRL clubs?
DT has got all the skills but it's a bit different showing them off in schoolboy footy where you have a 20 or 30kg advantage on almost every other kid plus your team (St Brendan's Yeppoon in Dave's case) wins every game by about 40 points. I have no doubt WB played him differently than he would...
