Default Summary

Race 1.
Well it was all in the riding in this race..Colless just nursed Mr Bachelor to the line..he's the man...Cruskit was very good in 2nd...took him a while to wind up but he'll be better for the run..Unintentional was dissapointing i thought..horse raced alittle ungenerously so he might race better next time now the edge is off.
Race 2
Couldnt believe the support for King Of Fitzroy..i was thinking maybe 15's ...the colless bandwagon jumped aboard and he was dissapointing in fading down the straight...will be better over further though..and ifs theres money around for him at this stage he must be showing something on the training track,,,Roman Squier was very impressive...
Race 3.
Glad i left Abu alone..with My Chinese King out it was taylor made for Game On..i'm not getting over excited about him...yes he's won 3 in a row but hasnt raced against anything yet...this was a class 5 today at best,,
people are talking Brissie cup ect.....
i'll wait to i see him in a true staying race with pressure up front before i'm sold..
Race 4.
Backed Enrique here and was dissapointing....just didnt seem to grab the bit at all......Colless the difference here..i thought the weight would stop her but she was very good..,Epsom Races was good also...
Race 5.
A good win by Tropiqualo...everything went to plan...got the good run and was just to speedy for them.....No world beaters in this lot..Public Opinion with his fair share of probs might be off to padock for good i'd say..
Race 6.
Glad i didnt jump back on Canadian Shuffle...the horse has been dissapointing this prep...not sure the radecker experement is working..maybe needs a stronger rider to get her switched on more....I had a little e/w on Partridge at 20''s and she was very good....but it was set up for Marikal and she won very nicely.
Race 7.
Princess Margaret was very gallant in defeat ridiculous odds though...looked to have sweated up and didnt have any favours in running...a good 4th and from a good barrier will be hard to beat against the girls...
Zoe Lad with fitness and the perfect tempo was to good...Dont tell tom should have been better against this lot with that weight...past his best now but will still win if placed right..
Race 8.
The last was a lotterry...Backed Jumpn Jared at 25's e/w and he again ran on evenly.....I thought Clang edition was ordinary..looked to have had the perfect run and when he loomed up in the straight he looked as though he was going to go straight past them this was 2nd up so he'll be right at his peak next start..

Not much action for me today at Brissie...Enrique and Tropiqualo for wins and Partridge and Jumpn Jared e/ws for the one collect...
an even day in brissie.

My melbourne runners all seemed to finish 4thish
the Italian, Forest Night, Mccloud, Douro Valley .....wipeout,,all raced ok though..especially the italian ..very good run..

Sydney
Ledger ..dam horse starting to cost me...good run though..

Adelaide
Cabernet Now (crappy odds..seems people noticed his last run..maybe hes a oakbank horse ?)

Gosford
Emperor Fu San ..won but to short for me.....won very very well to

Swan Hill
Cathy Come Home...a very nice place divie...still a maiden this one and Sportz and co will remember how i am with these maideners..i wont be happy till i get Cathy over the line..
(remember Lair, Grand Merlot...lair raced today and finished a distant last and i'm not sure what grand Merlot is doing..)

Kalgoolie
Calmbeforethestorm Woohoo a nice win ...looked a good thing and was very happy with the $5.50..the trifecta was a very good aswell..

A small profit for the day..still going in the right direction ..hard work though..Melbourne really killed me ...

Hope you guys had a good one
