Ahhh yeah, sometimes he certainly does get it right. One thing though. Going by his comments over the last few months, there are no top class horses in Australia. He doesn't think Miss Finland's much good. Same with Haradasun and Efficient. He doesn't think Pompeii Ruler is any good either, and he's been critical of El Segundo and Eremein as well. The list goes on and on. Is there a horse racing in Australia that he actually thinks is top quality???  |
