Cox Plate

[Freak]

she's the best i've ever seen

she was going so well around the turn that bossy was asleep. he was dreaming of what he could buy with his winners cut

to win a cox plate that easily without touching the whip and eased down - WOW!!

melbourne cup - here she comes!!!!

Not to sure about the "Eased Down"

Super win but I reckon she did it pretty tough!!

As per last year's Cup she had the others beat a long way from home and relied on superier stamina to get her to the line.

I doubt she will start in the cup. IMO that run would have knocked her around a bit, and I think she looked a little sore in the inclosure after the race.

Biggest run of the race was Lad Of The Manor!! Not sure if he could of won but should have finished better than 5th.

If she does run in the cup. Who can tell me how she is weigthed VS Vinnie Row on compared to last year??

I am a massive believer in backing horses set for particular races, and she has not been set for the Cup!! I don't think she can win, but then again I don't think she will start either. (8 days to go!!)

VR has 2.5kg on her this time. He carried 58 last year, she had 55.5.

Yep been saying this all along.

I'll post in the melbourne cup thread a copy of Ken Callanders comment in todays telegraph. Sums it up well for me...

You on the money with Lad of the Manor's run.. The jockey had the horse in a reasonable position, i wouldve preferred the horse closer to the speed and then got absolutely swamped and stuck behind Tosen Dandy...It was a bad ride and he should have seen and heard the others making their moves. Im not saying the horse would have won but LOTM would have definatly come in the top 3
