Of the males think Elvstroem is a chance & dont envisage getting anywhere near $18 on the day,so am backing it now.Was a costly horse for me last time in so it owes me.Was a good run first up,so I'm kinda hoping it's come up this time in with a bit of maturity on it's side.
Mugpunta,I mentioned Wild Iris in my previous post about 4yo mares record in this race,didn't you see it?
As for Special Harmony not running 2400 can't agree.Didn't she win the VRC Oaks over that trip in a canter?I still believe she would have won the Oaks in Sydney,why Lee decided to take on the males in the Derby still astounds me!She is a better proposition in Melbourne to me,and racing the males in the Caulfield Cup is a much better go than it was in the Derby.My thoughts only.
