Well last weeks were unsuccessful due to isanami and red oog, but i will try again here today:

SR: Retail Therapy (win) x Bentley Biscuit (win)
SR: Doubloon (plc) x Johnny (win) x Kosi Bay (plc)
MR: Lilando (plc) x Grey's Inn (plc) x Sky Cuddle (plc)
MR: Queen of the Hill (plc) x Hugs Dancer (plc) x God's Own (plc) x Aqua D'Amore (plc)

tell me what you think

If he is right Lilando will win today very good horse who handles any conditions I just thing he has to much speed for this lot if right.

worried about strikeline...beaten 3 len in a G1 last start behind Spark of Life and Our Egyptian Raine, before that won a G3 and i believe its an underrated mare which continues to be thereabouts in these sprints. Jas drawn ideally and has good record at distance 5-2-3 and track 10-3-4. Saying all that, Lilando is still the classier horse, i am just not that convinced that it will definitely beat strikeline

Fair enough mate I amnot a fan of Strikeline personally it is a horse that certainly doesn't like to win out of turn very consistent though just doesn't seem to quite have enough to beat the real good ones which I think Lilando is. But please don't let me change your mind.

You never really know how a returning bleeder will go first up. If Lilando repeats his previous first up effort (Lightning Stakes) he'd win this. Strikeline has a good record at 1000m and will appreciate the 28 day break. Danerich is also in with a chance with the fast tempo offsetting coming back from 1400m. Don't really like the race to bet on.

had a go at the Lilando-Strikeline exacta as well as the Grey's Inn-FOO exacta.

In the toorak i went 1,9,11/1,2,8,9,11/1,2,8,9,11... $10 is 13.3%

No Our Smoking Joe?

no, it appears not.....:D

does look good though...

what is its highest class win?

Sounds like Lilando bled again shame but the last time we will see the horse here in Australia probably go to america now.

awful to own a horse that has bled twice...my own bled once - horrible feeling

2 all ups are out the window

But hugs dancer paid $4.60 the place, and with Queen of the Hill winning that one still looks pretty good. The retail therapy/bentley biscuit paid around $3.80
