I was just watching a replay of the oakleigh plate and could not beleive my eyes at the run of NADEN, looking at his previous 5 runs.
1200m flem- 2nd at 800/1st 400 won 3L
1200m flem- 1st at 800/1st 400 btn s1/2hd
1200m caul- 1st at 800/1st 400 won 1L
1200m flem- 1st at 800/1st 400 7th- 5.7L
F/UP
1100m flem- 1st at 800/1st 400 3rd- 3L

He missed the start, and shortly after he clipped the heels of either suit or blur, went down on his nose and was 3-4 lengths
behind them, tacked on then moved up 4 & 5 wide. On the turn [15th],he was bumped by legally bay trying to get to the outside
then he made ground in between runners [14th] at 200m absolutely flew home to finish 6th. Nearly should of won.

REACTIVE :
800 45.17/600 34.70/400 23.33/200 11.75

SUIT :
800 44.90/600 34.45/400 23.18/200 11.76

NADEN :
800 44.91/600 34.72/400 23.39/200 11.72

I hope he draws barrier 11-16 in the newmarket on saturday, he normally is on the pace, loves the track and will be good odds.

GO BOY!

Whilst it was a very good win and I will be the first to admit I amnot a big fan of the horse before I say this.


The winner of the Newmarket will not come out of the Oakleigh will be either the Ligtning or something that is fresh.

M money would be on Regimental Gal again she gets in aain with no weighton her back if he gets a sit he will be ery hard to beat
