Tauhei Notts 1,412 Report post Posted February 17, 2018 Spare a thought for the owners of Zacada. His jockey said, and I kid you not, "they went too slow so I only came eighth." That is the sort of logic that would make her a brilliant cost accountant for Fletcher Building.

That must be the opposite to Race 2 when the rest of the jockeys must have said "Rich Billy Marsh went too fast, so we let her go to a 15 length lead and win by 2 lengths". Didn't even rate a mention in the stipe's report. Turny and Portfolio 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brown Fox 867 Report post Posted February 18, 2018 Did anybody hear from the connections of Boomerang.The horse seemed to drift out of a good possie to the rear and then come up the inside where nothing was winning.Puzzling ride.(Had $5 double going with On The Rocks so maybe talking through wallet) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohokaman 5,825 Report post Posted February 18, 2018 I thought Cominthrough was a good chance given his last effort, and was a bit disappointed with the unplaced run, also on the inside. Not so Alysha Collett who said " Fantastic run, ready for the 3200m now" Being by Bullbars I wouldn't have thought so, but she would know better than I would....we'll see.

Similar to Riddell, last on Transformer. "did too much work." Did a working gallop from the mile to the 400 then compounded. I guess you have to say something when there's a mic shoved in your face.

Didn't even rate a mention in the stipe's report. Rich Billy Marsh always goes out in front, but usually 6/8 lengths,and those jockeys letting her go out by the margin she did, in a 1200m race, should have been hauled over the coals. Bloody ridiculous especially seeing she was in form,ran second last start. The Stipes not doing their job. Would have been a different story in Aust. chelseacol and LastOf40 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
