    I spoke to Johnny yesterday EF and from all reports she's working pretty well the Sydney way of going but as he said race conditions against a full is a lot different to working alone in a track gallop. The fields are out and as you would expect being a G1 it's a tough one. We're under no...

    I'm glad you came in and said that EF because if it were me it'd look like i was making excuses lol but yeah, you know your racing and you summed it up pretty much spot on. On face value it might've looked a bit disappointing but in reality with the slow tempo the race was run from barrier to...

    My emotion is certainly the one to beat you'd think and is deserved fave for sure. It was a very impressive win last start and i can't see her not being in the finish again tomorrow and i hope we're fighting it out with her. That said i reckon there's other genuine chances in any one Speedy...

    She's been working really well EF. She had a jumpout at Balnarring last week with Brad on board which she won and her regular track rider Rowan Waymouth said he couldn't be happier with her so everything seems to be going to plan at this stage. Johnny decided to hold off floating her over...

    Double Duty for a horse.

    You pretty much hit the nail in the head EF. Sometimes you'll find 2 suitable races that suits the horse and is elligible for so you nominate them for both. Nominations for weekend races usually have to be in by about noon on the Monday before and final acceptors for the trainers who decide to...

    Cheers for your thoughts EF. I never know if i'm just being bias towards the horse so it's always good to hear objective points of view. To answer your question, as very good as Dunn's ride and said he'd like to keep it Brad is definitely sticking with her. As mentioned the only reason he didn't...

    Cheers for that boys it's appreciated. You weren't the only one who didn't think she had a hope on the turn Andrew, she settled beautifully and was sitting exactly where we wanted her to be in the run, until of course the front 2 dropped anchor and we got shuffled back to last. We've gone from...

    She'll be running at tomorrow Andrew. While we wanted to keep her against the fillies, after weighing up the pros and cons of both races we just thought that Caulfield was the slightly better option given her dislike for MV. If we make it to Adelaide we'll be facing most of those fillies in...

    Sorry boys first chance i've had to get back. I agree when you said Andrew was spot on Fein because it was summed up perfectly. The plan was to try and jump out quick and either set the pace or sit just off it to give us every chance being one of the first coming round the turn. Obviously...

    I do have a share in a couple more unraced 2yo's Evenflow. One is filly named Lorna's lass (sh*t name i know but it wasn't my pick) which is out of Bianconi and a colt names Divine Prophecy out of Keep the faith. The filly was meant to have a jump out on Wednesday but she refused to go into...

    Thanks heaps for that EF. I usually have a look over the sectionals as they give out copies after the race in the room where you go and watch the replay but for some reason they didn't after last start. Looking at those times only reinforces why we were so rapt with her run. All things going...

    Cheers for that boys much appreciated. Given the run she had we honestly couldn't be happier with running a place. Brad's instructions was to try and get her across a couple off the fence before the turn but if he couldn't get her into a place where she could be a genuine winning chance. *edit*...

    Cheers Hiney lets hope she gets the chocolates. You're a good judge, Johnny is a top bloke for sure. He came down from Warrnambool when he was 18 which was about 18 years ago now to play footy and stayed with my cousin and we've been good mates ever since. He's just one of those real genuine...

    I wish i was as confident as you EL lol I'd have been much more so if she drew a decent gate but like you said will make it much harder to win, especially given no horse has won the vanity from a double figure barrier. From the 1400m chute there's only a couple hundred metre straight before...

    Good to see Faith lined your pockets as well boys. Was very happy with what she ended up paying in a 6 horse field but not sure the bookie was that we all hit on track :lol: If she was trained by Freedman, Hayes, Price, Moody etc she'd have been half the price or less but i wouldn't have her...

    Doncaster

    That's one way of looking at it but as you said it's a pretty decent field besides black caviar with a listed race winner and a blue diamond placegetter. There were 18 noms for this but only 6 acceptors so I'm tipping black caviar mightve scared most of them away lol Any I think a few of...

    She's running on Saturday at the Valley in the William Crockett stakes or the arrow services plate or whatever they call it now. While she's been working well on the track I can't see her winning on Saturday. Black caviar is in the same race and going by her first 2 starts she looks to be a...

    Cheers for that mate. Sorry it's the first time i've been on since her run i've been on annual leave. Was very happy with the way she won last start and looks to have a bit of ability. She pulled up well and is running on Saturday Sires Produce in Adelaide which is a Group 3, it's another step...

    That's who i'll be on. She got the money for me last time so she owes me nothing. Would like a bit more rain though, if not i hope the track stays pretty soft. There's a few genuine chances and the Doncaster isn't always the easiest race to find the winner of. I've got a share in a thing...
