My outsider for the race.. Woodala..

Too much weight for Black Tom, settled near the rear & that's where he stayed! Zero Engagement ran on well for 5th, Respect outstayed them, got 15/1 early fixed odds :) Laetare 8th coming from last on the turn.

Hi goldeee. I don't think it was just the weight that beat Black Tom. To be fair to the horse (and connections) he had no hope after becoming entangled with Coalseam at the 650m (when that horse clipped Woodala’s heels & dislodged it's jockey, Jason Brown). Also Black Tom's saddle slipped sideways in that incident. He did well just to finish the race imo.
