Can Moss Vale win? The swansong...

[my miss storm cat]

Uh oh.

It was a nice thought anyway.

Okay if someone holds up a sign saying "The Curragh" Bennie will win.

On the other hand, the last three times Moss did manage to win he had Fallon up.

Tiza and Desert Lord, Dandy Man, crap this is a really nice field.

I'd use New Girlfriend somewhere at those insane odds.

Safe trip home, everyone. I'll be happy if he finishes well.

If the ground isn't too soft, i can't see why anything can beat Kingsgate Native. He has beaten some of these before, and get atleast a stone of weight from all of his rivals.

Really???

I think this crowd is waaaaay too much for him.

Could be the usual.... Ben wins with Mossie right behind, huh?

Where do you think Red Clubs would finish if he was running in this?

Ummm, Clubsy could win the Japan Cup, the Japan Dirt Cup, any BC race AND this blindfolded and backwards.

Does that answer your question?

He's in Evie's last race and I'm telling you not this time but next? Jeremy is sitting on a BIG win.

Well, in that case...... why don't you see Kingsgate Native winning?? You are forgetting about a small race called The Nunthorpe where Kingsgate Native won, and Red Clubs was only about fourth.
