Message: [QUOTE="Jeba, post: 2340355, member: 1827"] I am sure he will run out the 3200m, but will he do it as good as the other good stayers we have at the moment? We have to remember that technically he is still a 3yo and has never even run further than 2040m, and considering that a Melbourne Cup win won't enhance his stud career, I'm not sure Bart would take the risk with him when he has 3 other good stayers running for him in Precedence, Faint Perfume and Dariana. Looking at the Cox Plate run yesterday, Zipping and Whobegotyou made up a few lengths on him in the straight and it's not as if So You Think was eased up on the line either. Obviously I'm not Bart, but if it was me I wouldn't be running him, and instead just maybe give him another run in the McKinnon, and focus on next year's Cox Plate and the recognition to be as good as, if not better than, the great Kingtson Town. In saying that, as someone who is going to be at Flemington on Cup Day, it would be a sight to see him win the 150th running of the Cup. But like I said, I think he is a risk. Will be very keen to see the third acceptances tomorrow morning. Linton and Precedence are my best results this year so I am hoping some of the donkeys like Master O'Reilly, Buccellati and Doctor Fremantle don't accept because they don't deserve to be in the Cup over some good progressive stayers at the moment. The fact that a horse like Master O'Reilly gains an automatic start in the Cup, having not won a race in over 3 years, is an absolute joke. [/QUOTE]
