Did you see the 3-horse Ormonde S-G3 at Chester of a few years back? I think it was 2008. The pace horses scratched out, the 3 came out of the gate at little above a walking pace, nearly came to a standstill after cantering gently for several strides; took a half-furlong before one jock put his horse into a gallop and took the lead (they won, too).

Well two of you guys seem to think I'm braindead or something and no, I wouldn't take him at that price.

To be clear I am not playing this race nor do I think he wins here...

I just like him a lot and wish him well. Always have a soft spot for the older boys...

Playing Flemington tonight and maaaybe Aus A as well... haven't looked at that yet. That might be it for me for the weekend or at least till Monday.

Ann... no I didn't see that one but if you can find a replay would love to watch it!
