Mate, you're SO on the same page as me.
Last year I had a motza riding on MD in the Cup and got real worried after that run of Vouvrays in the Cauflied Cup. Was pleased she didn't run and said, next year, that's my horse
Got on very early. And her prep has been so much like MD's last year. She is ticking over perfectly. I expect her to rattle home in the CC and would not be surprised if she won actually... As long as she's finishes strong, I'm more than happy to be on for the MC.
And to answer the question. Yes, right decision. They thought she was a bit immature last year and put her away for this year. In the autumn I recall Beadman (think it was) saying after one of the races in Sydney, that he'd like to be on her in the Spring.
Nice double the HG - Vou one mate.
I got the Makybe Diva (plate) - Vouvray (MC) double at 75/1. Had a few goes at it though
