I see Cosmo was the only one who included Blevvo in their selections - well done my boyo, hope you had something on it, and I’m sure Santa does as well. :wink:

Thanks to Cosmo, we selected the tri.

I'm talking through my pocket when I say what a farcical run race, played right in the hand of the leader (Blevvo). For a Group 1, some of those jockeys treated it like a maiden. Even when Blevvo was challenged midrace (Main Stage) I think, that lasted around 20m & then the pace slacked right off again.

It was amazing to see the majority of the field just getting warmed up over last 30m or so. On a fast track, they ran 1m52.18, last 600m in 35.57! In a graduation same distance at Ascot yesterday, they ran 1m50.71.

In last years Fruit 'N' Veg they ran 1m50.09, last 600m in 34.68!

Anyway, good luck to the connections & especially P (Pat?) Farrell - got away with highway robbery, and absolutely stole it, well done to ya!

Perth Placegetter, as a matter of interest was Blevvo in your top 8?
