Don't know much about Grey Swallow but i have bought a share through the Aussie Syndicate in Honor In War. Aim was to run in the Cox Plate but is set for the Emirates. Has trained the house down and Danny O'Brien and Stephen Arnold are rapt - the lastest email to owners was that there is an air of confidence that it will run well. At 100/1 it is way overs. Has only missed prizemoney 4-5 times in its 36 race career. $100k for 8th sounds good to me.

Barrier 13 not an issue as it was to settle at the back anyway. Some of the leaders drawing wide a bonus as there is likely to be pace on early. Each way all day.

After Enirates will race in Hong Kong in December and come back in the Autumn after which it will go to stud in Aust.

I was looking forward to my first Cox Plate - now as an owner i am besides myself.

Good luck to all.
