Here's my new line with Quality Road out.

I Want Revenge 3
Dunkirk 5
Fresian Fire 7
Pioneer of the Nile 8
General Quarters 17
Musket Man 20
Papa Clem 20
Desert Party 20
Regal Ransom 23
Chocolate Candy 25
West Side Bernie 25
Win Willy 30
Hold Me Back 30
Square Eddie 30
Advice 40
Mr Hot Stuff 50
Summer Bird 60
Mine that Bird 60
Flying Private 60
Join In the Dance 60
Needless to say I'm a bit bullish on both General Quarters and Musket Man; at least in that I think both could crash the tri. I'd say there's a huge difference between Momba and General Quarters: GQ has already run a 102 Beyer in a two turn DIRT race while Momba was not a dirt horse at all. I would compare Momba to Hold Me Back, who looks like a synthetic specialist.
