Sunline may still be a run short but the knockers will be silenced after today.

Congrats to Horse cents, TESTAROSSA & loadandlockett, who all selected LONHRO who looks to be on track again.

Legion, think you were spot on with your comments, SUNLINE will be at her very best from now on!

What a great race that was , i had goosebumps all the way down the straight it cast my mind back 2 years on the same race program when Redoutes Choice and Testarossa had a great duel in the Guineas.

I think Lonhro will win the Cox Plate , but i will be more scared of Sunline then i was yesterday thats for sure.

Was anyone dissappointed with the run of Republic Lass , sure she was outclassed by two champions , but i would have thought she would have grabbed Ustinov , and also Prized Gem and Distinctly Secret didn't seem to run on that well either , it has definitely put a question mark in the Caulfield Cup.

What a great spectacle - the only thing that was sadly missing was a racecall from the late Bill Collins.

Sunline knockers beware the Cox Plate!

Congratulations to Loadandlockett picking the trifetca.
Hope you had a few bucks on it mate.
:wink:

You have all forgotton Northerly again. It is amazing the number of people who pick horses to beat him but he continually answers the critics. Lonhro or Sunline or maybe even Grandera may win the Cox Plate but whoever does so will know they have had a race on their hands if Northerly starts.
