I thought the same about Run For Naara.... how wrong we were. That 1,000 guineas form is looking good now.

What happened to Zipping, I missed it - he went off in the gate and got cast, I assume?

What is with pom trainers for f#ck sake do they think if they lead from the front they will break the spirit of the other horses ,Here some advise & ill even give it to these obviously ignorant pom trainers for free !!!!
NOT IN A GROUP 1 !!!! it's suicide !!!!! ,Sorry phil im not saying all pom trainers are bad it's just the tactics they adopt when they come to australia

I completely agree mate. He was never going to be competitive from the front. He (Cime De Triomphe) just hasn't acted here forwhatever reason. Very disappointing.

No more bets today I don't think, well only Morgan Dollar at Morphettville. Should be a steering job now dropped in grade.

Need to catch up on last night (finally!).

Is Zipping okay? Wow I'm glad I wasn't watching.

Thrilled for Monaco Consul! There will never be another Xcellent but very happy and hope he contines to shine for his connectins (waving NZ flag too).

VERY upset about Efficient and Zipping! Ugh.

Where is Mourilyan????? Have always been a fan, thought he drew barrier 14. Am I crazy? A nice horse who wins when he damned well feels like it! (No, really).

My special good luck list...

C'est la Guerre (no I'll never learn), Gallions Reach (I know, I know). (edit - am just wishing them luck, not my picks!)


If Mourilyan is out? Daffodil with Warringah and Newport underneath. ***


*** subject to change

(Anyone care to explain the Freedman / scum comments for those of us who wanna know? Thanks!)

Moodwalker can tell you his side as he worked for them I can only say from the trainers side they kinda have now how do you say it dont give a sh#t about there fellow people, ,
If you Train a good horse the freedmans will go straight to the owner behind the trainers back & either (a) buy it from out of you or (b) offer the owners such a great deal to make sure the freedmans train that horse ,they have no scruples to make sure they get the best deal possible Lee almost owns racing victoria were he can train & even trial his horses on his own property the stewards come to him the other brother tried to control NSW by becomming head of the board & then taxing the trainers so high as to make it impossible for them to train @ the training tracks there was a huge revolt in NSW & they got rid of him now 1 is oversea's
Singapore i think & they will take what ever horses they want ove there as far as the freedmans are concerned they want to Own racing & it has only been the emergance of dare i say it big players like Darley & patnick with the backing of the studs eg Lee cant get his hands on the good horses that has seen him fall on his arse & not control everything good days indeed ,Other than that on a personal note ive known a few crooked trainers who will lets say touch up or buzz ( give the horse a electric shock up the straight )a horse before a race & rob syndicates
blind & wouldnt you know it these trainers now work as foremen
for lee freedman.
