HUNTER CUP (FNL FLD)
THE WARP DRIVE $3.85
ELSU $4.00
TE KANARAMA $5.25
THE FALCON STRIKE $6.00
ELSU is an out and out champion, there's absolutely no doubt about it.
What were they thinking on The Falcon Strike, you cannot sit in the death seat the whole way round a Hunter Cup!
You either sit one out and one back with cover or come from the tail on the back of something. To pull off a death seat win, you gotta be confident your horse is better than the rest of the field, or that some bolter is going to challenge and give you cover.
Still and all TFS should have run a place maybe third. Nothing could have beaten the greatest horse in the Southern Hemisphere (ELSU).
