Newmarket RC 209 Report post Posted January 12, 2019 IM PATS DELIGHT JUST OUTSIDE TRACK RECORD AT SHEPPARTON Im Pats Delight was only 0.1 of a second outside the track record mile rate for 2690m with his win in the $60,000 Shepparton Gold Cup on Saturday night, January 12, 2018. The Kiwi raider, given every chance with a one out one back trial by Gavin Lang, rallied best to take the Group Two feature in a 1:56.2 rate for the staying trip. Let it Ride was woeful and obviously something amiss with him after he dropped out sharply Iraklis 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thejanitor 1,217 Report post Posted January 12, 2019 Yes, great win by Pat's Delight. Weak effort from Let It Ride dropping out with 800m to run, he's not a horse who can do work in a race. He had to sprint to hold the lead and it told a long way from home. https://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=SP120119 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also asked him if they got any form of reimbursement for Interdom cock up. Very silent answer!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The horse received a warning LCRT (last chance to race truly). This horse has done this before, he is more of a sit and sprint horse who is weak overall. I think the early speed duel took its toll. He was well backed so lot of punters burned? Newmarket RC 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
