Could've easily backed the winner but didn't, his formlines read very well. He has run courageous seconds to horses like Mock and I forget but some three year old who went on to win at Flemington easily. And a very strong third at Sandown behind the smart Full Fathom. Also a second to Roly Toy who he gave heaps of weight to, and he ran third yesterday at the Valley. It's a hard game this isn't it.
