i think a win is a win is a win, isn't it?
they're all 'value' as long as they get up

That 'unknown' kiwi sprinter was a 1000m specialist winning in NZ in low 54's [3 times] on NZ tracks with up to 57kg on board, which if anyone with access to a decent form service would have known. The fastest 1000m [until the Lightening] of any of the runners in the race on Sat.
2 weeks ago Ticklish finished very close up to Darci Brahma in the 1200m [not her distance] G1 Telegraph stakes. At 20/1 in a 1000m event her odds were a massive overlay as just look at the class she beat home! Unlucky not to have won the Lightning, but MA produced an incredible 53.9 sec. track record. At 20/1 and the light weight Ticklish was the biggest overlay in the race [because she was 'unknown'] and was a great e/w bet :-)
