  1. BREAKING NEWS: Craig Wiliams confirmed as the rider of Mr Brightside in the Australian Cup. Also, didnt realise that "he had ridden Mr Brightside in 28 of his 32 starts, posting 14 wins, including five at Group 1 level and three in Group 2 company"
  2. Agree that every race is different, and for me the barrier draw is just one factor in the equation, it also depends on the horse and its normal racing pattern, the course, the horse's form going left-handed vs right-handed and the track conditions on the day. e.g., connections would "normally" hate drawing 18 at Rosehill in the Golden Slipper, but would the same connections hate drawing 18 in the 3yo Coolmore down the straight-six at Flemington... So the barrier draw... it all depends.
  3. From RaceNet: J-Mac wants inside draw for Switzerland in Golden Slipper Just saying...
  4. 1. Trentham R5: 5, 10 2. Trentham R6: 6, 15 3. Trentham R7: 2, 4 4. Trentham R8: 5, 12 BB 5. Caulfield R8: 1, 9 6. Caulfield R9: 3, 12 7. Rosehill R3: 3, 4 8. Rosehill R4: 2, 4 9. Rosehill R6: 5, 7 10. Rosehill R7: 5, 6 11. Rosehill R8: 11, 17 BB 12. Rosehill R9: 3, 12 Hope Veandercross can turn it around today, but have a few fears.. Some big fields and plenty of room for upsets which is what Mr Gee and Dogzstar (team Mr Tiz) look for and we're also up against Winner who is near the top of the table... Here's hoping anyway. Good Luck everyone and thanks John and Leigh..
  5. Thought back to the Aotearoa Classic where Wessex bowled along in front and Desert Lighting tracked her with a bit of a gap to the rest, could easily see a similar thing happening with Desert Lighting tracking Pride of Jenni and be in it on the turn. But whether he's good enough to hold out the likes of Mr Brightside and others finishing strongly is the question.
  6. Flew back from Auckland on Friday afternoon and as quite often the case you circle over Hastings and can clearly see the track.. What I saw on Friday was just dirt instead of grass... so something definitely happening already.
  7. Good the he can control the irrigation from his phone. So he turns it on when he leaves for the day but lives out in the wop wop's with no cellphone coverage and can't turn it off... ha ha.!!
  8. Gap between Bonecrusher and Veandercross is already around $700..Pete and Stoyd from the Bonecrusher team have Ocean Billy in the Cup so if he comes home its definitely all over red rover..

Thanks John and Scooby and Good Luck everyone
  10. Early pick for a roughie tomorrow.... Endean Affair in the last race at Ellerslie. Currently paying $21 on the FF Win market.
  11. Having its first start right-handed, so who knows what might happen.
  12. Back in Shatin on Sunday... riding Lucky Sweynesse in the Queens Silver Jubilee Cup G1 over 1400m worth HK$13M (9.05pm NZT). Replaces Zac Purton who obviously got the drag after it's last run...
  13. All.. except for me today. Pulled a rabbit out of the hat in the last race last week but couldn't do the same this week. Hope that was my major flop for the comp. Great head to head with Showgate for sure.
