Race 7 Flemington
 

Looking at R7 i decided to look at the race from a different perspctive. Of the 14 runners i eliminated the horses i felt that wouldn't win or even run a place. Now, I could be wrong, but time will tell on that one.

From the 14 runners the 4 placegetters should come from the following 3,4,5,7,8,9,10.

I'm going to box these in a first four in NSW.

So, you've left Our Smoking Joe out altogether?

Brave move leaving out Joe was in the best form of his career whan last seen and finally turned into the horse I always had a bit of an opinion he could be.

I can undertsand leaving out Great is Great aswell but on his day he is leaps and bounds ahead of most of these.

the race is difficult.
i like great is great, toulouse lautrec and our smoking joe.

Heck, we have 2 threads going for the Chester Manifold Stakes [R7]. It's only a listed :-)

Smoking Joe out of a Tri? Brave tipping.

I was right about Our Smoking Joe and Great is Great. They never ran a place, but I missed the fisrt four, but there will be other races for me to use this idea.

With all the rain down there, it has obviously become a bit tough to pick a winner at Flemington, let alone a trifecta/first4 etc.

No better example of that than the last race. :rolleyes:
