Pompeii Ruler for me...... have taken the 9's

See how we go....

Top chance on form last prep.

Has the pace to race up front but not sure how strong she can run out 2000m?

mate i reckon shes going to be a top notch horse, i think 1600-2000 is her go from what we saw last prep in the blue diamond, slipper, sires etc., looking for a big season. i backed her at 40s on betfair, might lay off when she comes in after a solid first few races, i'm not sure she will be able to go head to head with the likes of marasco and haradasun etc

....also took the 3's for a place..... profit if runs a drum... ;)

Vivas
 

Anyone fancy John Moore's Vivas? in particular Viva Pataca

I have backed it @ 14's on Betfair a few weeks ago, but you could probably do better than that. I heard one of our aussie jockeys that race over in Hong Kong (Prebble i think) saying VIVA PATACA was in his opinion one of the top 3 horses in the world middle distance. He thought it would win the Cox plate, and would also win the Caulfield if it raced. That was good enough for me...

if Viva Pataca settles into Australia well and handles our race tracks I feel he will win the race I just have the feeling he is a class above the horses we have right now the only reason you are seeing double figures about him is that he has to aclimatise. Of the Australian horses I only have a couple at this point that i don't mind for the race and they are Pompeii Ruler who I feel is almost fool proof the fact he can take a forward position helps him no end here, the other is Marasco however I have a feeling he will always have trouble beating Pompeii Ruler on this track.

Viva Pataca is the one they all have to beat IMO.

Has Viva Pataca been to oz before?

No he hasn't i don't believe

stood to win heaps on El Segundo last year but was not to be...having another bite this year

...a big bite for me!

Marasco is no certainty to run in the Cox. Kersley considering other options.

geez! a lot of (all-in) money down the tube if he doesn't start!!

Had some as well. Broke a 12 year old track record easily beating Vengeance Of Rain (no slouch) in a Gr 1 over 2400 at Shatin, Hong Kong in June this year. Have also backed in the CC.

That sounds even more encouraging!

...and scheduled to arrive Melbourne early next week with stablemate Viva Macau. John Blakey, the Melbourne foreman for Anthony Cummings to oversee the spring preparation of the two gallopers for John Moore.

Is this John Moore the son of former champion jockey George Moore ?

Sure is ;)

Trainer Greg Eurell has just announced that he hasn’t ruled out a start in the Cox Plate for Apache Cat.

A bit of a turnabout as Eurell was adamant after last year's failure same race, that he would stick to feature races up to 1600m in the future, for Apache Cat.

B u g g e r!! Do you get your money back Stix?

Nope..... the risk of ALL IN betting.......... :o

Viva Pataca
 

Not coming to oz, being set for the Breeders' Cup Turf over 2400m at Monmouth Park, New Jersey on October 27.

I have heard that they are going to refund the money on all the horses that cannot race in the 3 big races because of EI so don't give up hope you might get your money backon Viva Pataca yet as that is the only reason he is not coming out here.
