Hammers - saying Makybe Diva is a only wet tracker is like saying Bradman was only good against spinners.

You might recall a little race we have called the Australia Cup? It's run at WFA over 2000m at Flemington. She won that on what was a Fast track but officially rated good. Yeah, broke the track record that day.

As a 4yo mare she also won a little Group 2 race called the St. Leger at Flemington, over 2500m on a dry track. OK, she didn't break the track record THAT day on the dry, but she did happen to run a sub 33 final 600m sectional, which is pretty handy.

Oh silly me - amongst the other dry track wins of this wet tracker was another little one I missed. Not sure what race it was but it was over 3200m at Flemington in early November 2003. Won that too. Rated good.

Cheers.
