ref interest in barriers. the interest raised by me was caused by the habit of brisbane favorites being reefed to the rear of the field if they draw wide.
i think a recent poster suggested it may be caused by the placement of the rail.
even so it is of interest and often means the fave can be discarded.

i was interested in the sky commentators discussion on black ink after the race regarding being at the rear all the way and getting fourth.
the mistake was he got close.
most dont feature but black ink was a good run albeit a losing one.
