Perhaps next start we will at least get better odds worth taking.

Has he had more than 1 this prep?
How will he go in the Cox Plate after a tough Caulfield Cup ?
On what basis could you rate Weekend Hussler as "the best in the country" when he hasn't won a race at 10f or further?
Best sprinter/miler YES...but we're stepping out of that realm and into stayer territory.
Having to give Zagreb and Guillotine 5kgs + over 12f will give him the opportunity to become a straight out champion but I'll be taking him on. |
