Now that the dust has settled on the incredible Melbourne Spring Carnival it is time to appreciate the fact that Makybe Diva was always the "class" horse of the field. Various ratings officianadoes expressed their views that "on figures" the mighty mare couldn't win!
As I have constantly asserted in this thread, "class" horses will constantly defy facts and figures and get the money at surprisingly good odds.
Don't forget....racing continues and there are innumerable horses out there in the city and the provincials which are basically running with a class advantage and when you find one(eg.MR5 19.11.05 No5 Forest Spy $9.5w$2.8plNSW) you should unload bigtime. In that race the favourite, Rokocoko was primarily the product of media hype....it had won a 1400m 4 & 5yo Rst-Ly and it was stepping up to open company today....definitely a dubious bet!

Cheers.
