Yes, tragic news re Hot Shot Brother. Commiserations to the connections.
Quick post mortem on the Winterbottom. Not taking anything away from the winner (who looks to have developed into a extra smart sprinter – clocking 1:08:66 for the 1200M) but did have the race handed to her on a platter. Have some doubt that she can repeat over 1400M or longer against same class field. Thought the runs of the race were from both Redwoldt and Modem. Both didn’t have the best of runs yet made up a lot of ground on the winner over the concluding stage. Expect great things from these 2 over next couple of months. Hardrada and Prince Of Vasac who were not suited under the weight scale, also put in good runs, both running on well over the concluding stages. I was a little surprised to see Refemme backing up so quickly (won on Tuesday) – not really wanted in the market and raced accordingly.

Cannot agree with much of what you have said there docker. Cento was getting his ears scrubbed off trying to get to the lead while ellicorsam was under a strong grip from the kid. The time she ran was phenomenal.It was one of the fastest for 30 years. Modem and Redwolt were good runs but with a solid tempo had every chance to run her down. Pike hardly fliched on her and she won untouched. Hardrada not suited under the weight scale. what the it's WFA. He's perfectly suited under WFA. In fact he has won this race the last two years. Refemme looks a 1000m horse and i thought the class would test.
cheers
