I'm getting the feeling the Platinum Witness will go to the Oaks. Her Derby odds are 18-1 and she's only 6-1 for the Oaks - I think there's probably something in that.

Giant Turtle has disappointed me a little bit in his last couple of races, but he could still put himself into contention with a good run next time. He might be in the noms for the G2 Waikato Guineas when they come out later today.

Similar story with Dartmoor - he was last in VSB's race. But he was quite good before that and can bounce back.

Thanks for the updates!

So embarrassed to say I don't know who this is but that is awesome that it meant something to you.
