Huge drifter in the market 5-1 out to 12-1,maybe something not right with the horse.

Durbs, i don't think that the horse wasn't right, he didn't finish a tailed off last. In my book i have the winner as an exacta horse, but couldn't see him conceding 7.5kgs to my fancy and still winning. Sporting Monarch at the turn around at the weights (with quite a few in the race) was in with a shout.

That's how the cookie crumbles, and we box on.

Must say, i had a bet on Brave Mary, albeit a small bet and she didn't win, but, and no disrespect to trainer P Matchett, put that horse with a bigger stable, how would you price up?

The bookies scare many off, no jokes - Adam this is not a dig at you, please understand that.

My personal opinion, Brave Mary is more than brave, she is a heroine. Guys follow this horse.

Bayern I didn't watch the race and I backed BM. What happened to her?

Cant bet in the next field - but everything has to beat Amazing Strike.

Nothing, most were returning from a rest, again no disrespect to the winner, who on the site backed the who started at 10/1. They were betting 7/1 bar two. The brave amoungst us will tell you the dropped Barrack Steet and Brave Mary in their exotics, yeah right.

Stick with this horse going forward.

Of course she is brilliant, and so is Barrack Street --- that winner though looks very smart --- potential may have been delayed a bit . had it's problems after that 10 length rout. Brave Mary and Barrack Street will be better for the runs.

Just to clarify - I marked Brave Mary down in my book last season - she is going to be very special. It will be interesting to see where the three of them go to.
