----------------------
couple of gear changes worth noting
DOMINICANO - Winkers On. ADMIRING - Blinkers On, Winkers
Off.
Doing a speed map I think this will be a very strongly run race - Kim Coin and Danamoss drawn wide should push forward early - well drawn runners will probably use there barriers to settle handy - maybe the odd midrace move by a jock losing his head or trying to pinch it
cant wait for this race
Cant see any possible way PHENOMENONS can be beaten. They went hard last start and he cantered in, if they walk they will cop an even bigger hiding!!
Every cent, in every account I have is going on.
So potentially only 21 hours until retirement.
Thanks for the good times, bar humbug for the bad and may the best horse win, to keep the career alive!

Black Print even though was not going to beat the placegetters will make a nice horse next prep.
Don't give up on the Dominicano either people just overaced with the winkers first time but will come back a nice stayer 8)
Im sure the WA trained runners will have to take on open company - so we may be able to get a good guide to the strength from how they perform.
I believe the winner Markus Maximus will now head to the SAJC Derby
Only won a weak maiden at Pinjarra? I assume you mean Black Print. He won a maiden at Pinjarra BUT then he won a 3yo 0-67 at Pinjarra over 2000m by 4.5L. The horse he caned was Ten Aces who won his subsequent start in Saturday class at Ascot beating older horses.
Black Print was beaten 2 1/4L in the Derby.......but don't let the facts get in the way of the point you're trying to make :liar:
PS - you notice the horse (Black Print) nearly fell at the 250m mark
I was just correcting a known falsehood. Everyone is entitled to their own interpretation of the facts. The trouble with Ivan is that he just wrong :lol:
People may not rate Max, but Moody did and he wouldn't of flew the horse over just for a run - would big col of made the first 5 place getters yesterday ?,I doubt it.
Its great our derby can attract these kind of horses here, remember, horses like Better Loosen up, Dulcify , (Summer Carnival)were sent here to race because they thought they were just below the top rung of horses running around in the East, they later went on to become , a couple of the greastest horses of there time.
Look at what Hayes did again this year with Nico, came here in the summer and hit his peak again-then won another Group 1 in Melb after.
Look for Max in the Caufield,Melbourne Cup betting.
Plus don't count our horses out - Choisr Kid-(spring sprints), Phenomenons.
