I was paddocking for the race today and Corinthian was his usual self, acting up a storm in the stall, but they got him calmed down. OTOH, Jazil is a little guy and very unimpressive looking, very calm. I went back up to my seat and who is now seated in front of me, but Kiaran M. . Two elderly ladies who had never been to the track were asking him who they should bet. LOL.
I asked him if he was pointing Jazil for the GPH stakes and he said maybe, depends on the race. Everyone by now saw the Corinthian power on replay, but one thought came to mind during the race. Jazil was his usual lagging self, then Jara put him more into the race down the backside, earlier than I thought he would, and I wondered whether this was a workout within the race for Jazil. I'd expect a bigger close in his next start, but I was very unimpressed with him today.
