    Interesting to note that Steven PArnham said he doesn't handle the corner to well at Ascot and that was his decision in choosing Tarzi, if that is the case the the hot tempo of the Railway plus the pressure might not be that good for him and therefore the more likely would be the Kingston Town where the pressure is not as hot and then he can work into it! You cannot dismiss Tarzi becasue he gets back anyway and he will just get onto somethings back and track into the race very nicely.

    Very confident about Colour Correct after the barrier draw, was hoping he would draw inside 10, if Trusting turns up Saturday he's the biggest danger.

    an interesting one for me is....famous roman $8 and megatic $41..admittedly Megatic went shit last year in the railway but it does drop weight 3 kg from last year and 5/6kg from the last time these 2 met,forgivin its last run ..In the northely stakes i thought megatic was finishing the better from memory...what price do you rate it della?

    I couldnt have Megatic either - had every chance last start - seems to go off the boil very quickly

    I was suprised to see megatic at 51, now into 41.

    I am very happy to stick with the Durrant/Kennedy train with Inarticulate. Will be flying late and has a good weight pull against all of these except for Megatic and tarzi. I would expect tarzi to follow inarticulate into the race from 17 and also be flooding home, however Inarticulate the one for me, especially if he can reel off a blistering last 600m sectional

    definately seems like a first up horse and then off the boil. ..i was just looking at the price difference and also at the weight...horse has carried 57 to 60 kg from 2008.

    colour correct is very short imo. I think with the crazy pace it won't matter too much where you draw.

    i agree.. way too short. entitled to be the best of locals but not at that price. obviously p.harvey contributes the price but couldnt have it at that quote

    No. I reckon Jim Cassidy is a butcher. Was obvioulsy puffing the magic dragon before the race. Trusting should have won the Epsom by two lengths. :evil:

    Was going to ask before - what's the chances Mekong Miss will pull out (after drawing 18 ).
    See she's nominated for the Carbine Club Saturday (1,400m)
    Watch this space ?

    Good point, Tivs, she's no chance in the Rail...even if she drew 1.
    Mighty chance in the carbine....going to be around 100 on Sat...so the idiots say...that could bugger her over a mile..
    One down...Ranger might get a start. BP might sling a few quid to some nohoper to pull out... :shock:

    6yo Mare she will more then likely be going to the breeding barn next year so her last chance at a big race i think she will start in the Railway despite the barrier.

    Last run was a monster ridden differently, would go close on the same effort.

    Yes!Trusting should have won the Epsom and a lot of other races too.
    Fell out of barrier in Cox Plate,had no hope anyway,then had run of race in Emirates up close and just battled.
    Seems like a horse that sucks you in and spits you out,maybe make a liar of me on Sat,but past history would suggest not.
