Yes, I would have to agree Testa, haven't seen the race yet as was OS, but in listening to the audio over and over, Beekeeper didn't sound over impressive, But reading the reports in the Sunday age, it seems everyone else was happy with the run. The Headline read, "Beekeeper abuzz with late run", and Goldophin's foremann saying, "We are absolutely delighted", "The best part is that he has had a race"...refering to the relative inexperience of Beekeeper, having only his eigth carreer start, beaten only 1.9 lengths. Rain Gauge only 2 lengths away also, and ran on strong. Thought Distictly Secret was the run, with 3200 in mind, and Grey Song did impress. I see Gai wants to persist with Platinum Sissors in the M/C. Recons he is as good if not better than Nothin Leica Dane, and reports he could be the best 3yo she has had! Now that's a big call... But he was super impressive, and will be hard to beat in the Derby, and if he wins, she wants to start him in the Cup! Of course, the owners may have other ideas.
