Via is a champ. You can only beat what’s put in front of you and she’s got a big ticker!

Blowman still stuck somewhere in the car park & can’t get out, maybe Maureen can goad him into it FFS

The return of Madam Lash!!

The return of Madam Lash!!

She might have inherited her old man’s “whip hand”!

Ol’ Lester was very handy with the “persuader”!

 

[Sans Souci Saint]

She’s going 6 lengths worse than last year, still good enough against this field.

I know we hang shit on ol’ mate Waaaahler here, but he tuned her to the minute for this race perfectly and she needed every inch/bit of it.

Buckaroo had my mudbutton red-lining boy!

I dunno about them all being out of form either. Sir delius is just better than them. Turnbull form stacked up.

Nepotism went about as good as his namesake Bea Arthur. Exciting race but pretty bog average field.

The 92 Cox Plate it wasn’t.

Attica
Observer
Delius

all of the above beat those slowpokes

Today was a track gallop, she’ll be like she never went around.

It was honestly one of the worst efforts I’ve ever seen in a major race here from someone who only had one straightforward job from the gate - eg just track Via one off & have the last shot or something similar…the blind obsession by Blowman to stay rails in run, save ground, pretend he was on Winx & yet find the back of a 40s pop falling backwards is inexplicably dumb beyond belief…the outcome badly tainted not only his legacy in the race, but took the gloss off such a great finish.
For one last go round, they could’ve easily called even Purton over again FFS.
Hope HB stays back in Bonkers where he belongs on discarded turntakers with 1 win from 26, 3 wins from 42 etc called Happy Lucky Dragon Winning Brown Gold Green whatever the f**k every Sunday & Wednesday night for all eternity….still sick but not catatonic after that.

I haven’t seen any stats to back this up but doesn’t it seem like Godolphin horses are flying since they farmed them around?

It's like Joke O'Shea is training them again.

I hope that's the last time they play that god awful song too

The few seconds I caught was a decent advertisement for respirators…

 

[Lemon Squash]

Angel Capital non acceptor for the Golden Eagle, weak as piss Waller!

Anyone else got half a mongrel for derby day already? If O’Sheamus backs up, I’m sticking with him.

I’m 3/4s there mate…. I got a little bit of Options at $26s so hoping he can draw a gate, really think he will eat up the 2500

Was very unlucky on Saturday too. Big big chance back at Flemington.

Wrinkleface confirmed for Buckaroo in the cup…I don’t get the excitement about this, did it suddenly trial like a bomb over 3000 metres after the Cox?

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Linebacker for mine.

Great marbles for Observer, Options & O’Sheamus - maybe the 3 O’s for the Trifecta??
