You would think so, wouldn't you. But racing prizemoney is heavily weighted in favour of winners. Spartacus has had 4 winners already and look at how he's going. Here's what you got on the weekend:

Catechuchu $36,000
Perfect Persuasion $9,000
Total $45,000

If both of those horses had won instead of finishing 2nd and 3rd, you would have got $180,000.

What's up with red dazzler anyway ?

i read PR thrashed him in a gallop but what gives ? Have they set him for something else

i certainly hope my stable has not had it's first mishap

I'm really going to regret missing out on Mutawaajid in the auction by a matter of a few seconds.

Yes it was a good win, but Sniper's Bullet was a bit unlucky so you might still have cause to smile. Could have been worse--you could have ended up with Churchill Downs.
