CT"s 310 Report post Posted July 17, 2019 Randwick race 1 #3 Mandela This boy is riddled with talent and is clearly still learning his craft but he is a potential superstar. Love his breeding, by Sebring out of a Lonhro mare, he should’ve won his debut after veering out late. He’s since won a trial in impressive style, savaging the line through the pack and no doubt Peter Snowden has ironed out his kinks going into his second run. Opened up $1.95 Fixed and has already been backed. Exciting horse. Enjoy scooby3051 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydney next week, NZ 3 weeks after that then Sydney again end of August then NZ again beginning of October. Weren’t you one of the people that won one of my Melbourne Cup competitions on here a few years ago? I’m sure it was you. Your name is Dave and I paid you AUD$500 after picking Crime Scene which finished runner up to Shocking if I remember correctly unless it was another person.

You’d expect Tim Clark to be positive from the ace draw. He’ll be a lot handier to the pace which will suit with the rail out 12 metres.

scoobysnacks 386 Report post Posted July 18, 2019 I like Mandela, but I don't think any midweek winter runner is ever going to be a superstar. Should have won easily on debut if not for a jockey error, but this is another step up. $2.20 might have attracted me. $1.80 is short but like many young types, they'll drift on the day.

I wouldn’t read too much into where or when he debuted. Elvstroem debuted mid week at Swan Hill for example. I think Snowden’s went for an easy kill and he would’ve learnt a lot from the experience. I’d be very surprised if he pays more than even money tomorrow. Moral. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would’ve won the race by an easy couple of lengths if he’d run straight and still nearly won. He’s a good orse this one.

No 'good thing' in my opinion since there are a few with far more experience incl a couple with winning form. He could easily win 6 lengths but $1.95 too short for my liking.

I suppose it all depends on what you consider to be “value”. I’m on at $2 Fixed ($600 win) as I can’t see him starting any longer than that. Off to Flemington now for a beautiful day in the members.
