Thanks - I'll have a go.

BK - I remember that race clearly. Mike Smith's worst ride. He would have been lynched in OZ.

Race DayWeather: CloudyTrack: Slow 9Rail: Out 4m | 7mm Rain OvernightWeather and Track updated at 6.59am Saturday 23 SeptemberFriday AfternoonWeather: OvercastTrack: Dead 5Rail: Out 4m | No Rain todayWeather and Track updated at 4.20pm Friday 22 September You have just highlighted the issue perfectly Whyisit. This is what everyone is concerned about. SOMETHING doesn't add up!!!! A DEAD 5 on Friday evening at 4:20pm, 7mm of rain overnight and suddenly it's a SLOW 9 by 7:00am Saturday??????? Are you kidding me and everyone else??????????

I did my picks for a tipping contest on here on Wednesday and from memory the TAB said it was a D6 then. How the heck did it get to a S9 by Saturday morning??

Jess, the Super Easy's have fantastic temperaments. Obviously handling plays a big part, but all the ones I've seen as you walk around the farm are good types with great natures. I personally think he's very promising - but I may be slightly biased!!

14mm 4 days out with rain predicted was simply too much.

And I saw on Trackside today there are still some nominations available for him this year??? He's a freakish sire [ OK - I know I have spruiked him for some time as Zabeel's successor] - but I was surprised to see that. $100K is a lot I guess - but he's worth it surely, if your mare's up to standard???

Thanks very much Bruce. There were some very good horses amongst those names!! Sort of what I was alluding to....I know Rogie talks his horses up, - but he is a good judge in general. That's why he put Savabeel in the Cox Plate as a 3yo!!!. It was as much a Savabeel winning such an early 2yo race that got my attention. He's a phenomenal stallion and I for one, would be PRETTY excited if I owned one that did that!!

Say what you like - Rogie is a 'Doner' - not a 'Gunna'!!!.

HI Jess - Hallmark have some major access issues this season with the main highway going past their gate under construction for some months. A real headache for everyone. Mark would be more than happy to show anyone Super Easy. He's a lovely horse; I'm very happy with my filly and going back this season.

I'd be paying a lot of attention to any Savabeel that can win the first 2yo race of the season. Just might be a bit special. I'd also be interested to know the percentage of Savabeel 2yo winners that have gone on to be above average?? Someone got the stats?

They will be setting new records at Ellerslie today!!! Slowest records.

Sorry - R9: 4,7 B/B

Absolutely right Bazach. Just got to be clear if you're breeding to sell - or breeding to race. If breeding to sell, the market dictates to a large degree the choice of stallion. If you plan to race it yourself, you're free to put your own theories to the ultimate test!!

Here we go again!! R1: 1,9 B/B R2: 11,13 R3: 2,5 R4: 14,15 R5: 11,14 R6: 2,13 R7: 1,5 R8: 7,11 R9: 5,8 B/B R10: 6,7 All the best Jen - and full BOOST for us Turbos!!!!

Has to be Moose for us Turbos I'd say!!

I have only laughed more at this steeplechase from France,!!!!!!

I was in stitches again just watching that once more!!!!! George's call was brilliant!

It's a non-issue: he did what the amoral Meteria Turei didn't do - and PAID IT BACK!!!!! Move on - there's nothing to see here....

I remember watching that race and thinking exactly the same thing!!!

I'm happy to be in with Moose.
