i backed Hotel Grand in the Spring Champions and so watched him from barrier to box and jock' J Ford gave him the best run you have ever seen,can't see it happening this time.Desert War is up there for me,only worried about the Melb' way of going and WFA scale and maybe the wet.
as for God's Own as a 3yr old,is he as good as previous 3 yr old's to have won.....i don't think so yet.
Super Kid has been outstanding so far but looks a little one paced for mine.
if Lad of the Manor can handle the wet,he looks very good as of course does MD but she will have to make a long sustained run for mine.
maybe the #1 barrier for Desert War amounts to good value and i believe this horse is still on the way up.
same as MD for Xcellent but the best of him is yet to be seen IMO.
can't come at any of the others....Outback Prince has cost me a packet so far so he is sacked.....overated for mine.
anyway,i think the winner will come from the first few horses i mentioned.
