Message: [QUOTE="m1c, post: 2246670, member: 1944"] Anyone lining up to take $7 about Alcopop has rocks in their head. For something untried at the distance that's been on a Melbourne Cup path for only a matter of weeks... The reality is that Stephens is a young and inexperienced trainer sending his first horse to the Cup as an after thought.... Up against the best trainers in the land who have done it all before and have had their horses - proven 2 milers - set for this for the entire year. Whilst winning impressively Alcopop has beaten b graders at best. $7 is huge unders. I'll give you Master O Dave - he's just a favorite of mine - but after Cest La Guerre's run last year there is no way you can over look him. Got smashed at the top of the straight and ran home better than anything else. The Williams camp nominated him as their number 1 cup horse this year and I have no reason to doubt them. Efficient never fired a shot in the lead up to his 07 win and I havn't been expecting too much of Cest either. His only goal is the first Tuesday in Nov. They have a smart one here and IMO $21 about him is much better than the $7 for Alcopop [/QUOTE]
