Duritz,
That was very nicely done at Flemington - I gave up the meeting as too hard. As for the 8th race, Beaujolais Prince did run on strongly behind Bruges and Ashkalante at their previous encounter, but you had to guess that he'd run the 2,500m when all his wins were in the 1,400m-1,600m range (although he is by Jeune, if you consider breeding a factor when guessing such things). He also has a terrific strike rate, met Bruges (and Ashkalante) better at the weights and was better drawn. Even so, it was a lottery race.
Cheers,
F
ps. Where do you bet to get such nice odds?
