Hmmm you are right Crash,he is developing into thoughtful hoop,he certainly has plenty of natural ability too.He steered Haddle Mc Daddle to a good win.
Yesterday looked a pretty straightforward day,but somehow it seldom works out to be that way.
I used to be a golfer and I could never figure out why I played like Kelvin Von Sprogg on Saturday and Koko the clown on Sunday.I think this when "you're hot you're hot and when you're not you're not" factor is the most difficult part of horseracing.Impossible to quantify.
We all keep trying.My first winner was a horse called "Royal Colleen" ridden by Merv Maynard,I was in the St Ledger at Broadmeadow with my Grandfather around 1954.Sometimes I wish the damn thing had lost,cause I've been hooked ever since.
