Bottler of a field!
Private Steer from True Glo
And a couple at good EW odds – This Manshood (33/1) & Forum Floozie (20/1).

mmmm still got a while to make my mind up, but for now I reckon Grand Armee and Kablammo, will be interesting!

With the prospect of a slow track, not sure if True Glo & This Manshood will handle OK.

Happy that Private Steer & Forum Floozie are OK in the wet.

I'll wait & see how the track is rated :???:

Still sticking with Vocabulary here tough race that is for sure though with a ******** load of chances good race to sit back and watch got a bit carrying over from a couple fo doubles to Vocabulary so I'll just try and kick her home.

I'm still sharpening my pin!!

Really don't think Grand Armee,Private Steer or Titanic Jack can win from where they are drawn.Looks to me that Ambulance is a great e/w bet from the draw and with Beadman to steer.

This is how I'll bet it...

Grand Armee win 20%

Private Steer win 20%

Grand Armee place 50%

This Manshood e/way 5%/5%

Best of luck

I think PRIVATE STEER should win easily. The ones finishing closest in my opinion will be VOCABULARY and SHAMEKA. I will also stick with the horse i've been saying will go close from the start, IKE'S DREAM, to add some value to the multiples

Crikey - nearly had the tri with This Manshood running 4th at 75/1 :sad:

Anyhow it worked out this way using my staking:

Outlay 100
Return Private Steer 90
Return Grand Armee 160
Return This Manshood 0

Profit 150

managed to get out to randwick today, and had a good doncaster - I backed Grand Armee and Private steer for the place and also got the quinella!

Having not seen the race and probably not really likely to see it either was a very disappointing effort on behalf of Vocabulary but I don't know if she was wide caught up or anything or just plain sucked ass.

Raw Instinct,

It wasn't a very good run from Vocab. Private steer had a brilliant run, last on the fence at the turn and bursting through the field with 200m to go. Grand Armee hit the front at the 400m but couldn't hold it.
Ambulance dashed home late to grab 3rd and Miss Potential and This MAnshood who 1st and 2nd at the turn held on to take 4th + 5th. Lucky for me i got the quinella but missed out on the trifecta because of a cramped vocabulary.

(I also missed out on the quaddie because of Alinghi)
