Efficient VS Haradasun What a cracker that should be, Two future superstars going head to head. Can't wait.

I think too short for Efficient. He'll be warming up when it's all over. Heard on the radio this monring that it will be a very short prep and then he'll be put away for the spring with the melbourne cup the main goal.

There's a couple of fillies in there that will keep Haradasun honest.

Efficient's main goal is the Cadbury Guineas, so he would wan't to go close here if was to have any hope there.

Be interesting what odds come up. I'll be taking him on though, he's still a 'hype' horse for mine... A lot of people got carried away with the Derby win when a lot of things went his way and I'm not convinced he beat much at all. He is going to be a very good horse, no doubting that. But not right now Haradasun will be too good for him imo. Couple of fillies there to make it interesting as well.

gee HARADASUN is good. he should win here. can't see anything beating him

EFFICIENT will be the query. i don't see him winning, but i think he'll be absolutely flying late.

and WORDSMITH should be in the first 3 past the line

Efficient looked like it was in for a bit of fine tuning on Saturday.
Was never going to win and it looked a touch like a barrier trial.(striding along on that rail section mightn't have helped either).
One more run and then he's spelling again.
Good preparation for a crack at the Melbourne/Caulfield Cups.
Rawillers ride on the favourite?
Did anyone question it?
Heard he said it was no chance when they ran 15 seconds for the first 200.
Got to ask if he was aware of that why did he stay back where he did?
Just a thought.
Nice win all the same by Hayes horse.
Dont underestimate that thing.
