I have to admit i have changed my mind to many times for the MC ive already backed Dizelle at healthy odds but gees i was impressed with Maybe Better yesterday and the 12-1 looks nice odds?

Changed my mind, dropping Efficient (4th run in 3 weeks.. not overly excited by race times, 3 year old, history against), and including Kerry O'Rielly and Activation. Already put $$ on Mandela at $30, Kerry O'Rielly at $50, and on Maybe Better at $80's already, plus a top up last night. Tawqeet is the obvious inclusion, and I can't help but think Activation will be thereabouts.

Quite happily prepared to go around internationals for various reasons and horses without any leadup form, regardless if they have been set for this or not.

TAWQEET
MAYBE BETTER
MANDELA
KERRY O'RIELLY
ACTIVATION

Will stick with these 5 now, and work exotics around them.

my selections are Tawqeet, Dizelle (i think it needs further, its run in the metrop and the CC were both very good) and Maybe Better (i think this horse will have no trouble backing up) and for the roughie Art Success.

what does everyone think about this trifecta?

1st: Delta Blues, Short Pause, Activation, Pop Rock, Dizelle, Kerry O'Reilly
2nd: Yeats, Delta Blues, Tawqeet, Short Pause, Activation, Pop Rock, Dizelle, Kerry O'Reilly
3rd: Yeats, Delta Blues, Tawqeet, Short Pause, Activation, Pop Rock, Dizelle, Kerry O'Reilly

Yeah Chuck dont mind it if it gets up it will pay huge!! I Think maybe putting Tawqeet in there for 1st and id say Maybe better has to be included id be very surprised if it doesnt run a huge race??

The more i look at it the harder it gets, but i heard that the Derby was 2.1/2 sec's slower than the SAAB, so i'll leave Efficient out.

for the win:

TAWQEET
POP ROCK
MAYBE BETTER , not sure about YEATS but i'll put him in.

for the place:

ZIPPING
ACIVATION
DIZELLE
cant believe people are tipping ARTS SUCCESS as a roughie, at Moonee Valley, DOLPIN JOE was swamping it the last 100m and IT doesn't rate.

I reckon I'll go with (In order of Preference):

1.YEATS
2. POP ROCK
3. DIZZELLE
4. ACTIVATION
5. TAWQUEET
6. MAYBE BETTER

Might throw them on for a trifecta or first 4. Should be a good race.

Good Luck.

Good luck chuck, its a chance , but i would swap Short Pause for something decent as i dont think the track will be wet enough for it .

oooops, i forgot maybe better, i have put it in for 2nd and 3rd, as well as efficienct!!
