Hope you guys remembered that tip i gave you somewhere on this thread yonks ago "Maewest" it was worth the wait.
That means i'm one for one in WA . Think i'll quite while i'm ahead :smile:

Yeah, well done maverick1993.
Wrote it down in my little green book when you tipped it.

Might have missed it yesterday had Jason Brown not been on board - one of my fav WA jocks. Nice effort too from a wide barrier. Paid 9/2 here.

Haven't seen a mention elsewhere but just wish to record the untimely passing of one WA's better performed thoroughbreds in Hot Shot Brother. He died after collapsing during a track gallop last Wednesday. HSB was a winner of 6 races and 6 places from 16 starts including the Group 3 Scahill Stakes last summer. It is tragic to see a quality performer like him coming to early unexpected end.

That's tragic news Rain Lover. Hard to believe. I know he ran very well in a trial a couple of weeks ago. Was looking forward to another top campaign.

That's shocking news Rain Lover. I still remember the Scahill Stakes vividly. Nosed out Kames Hope in a tight finish. Won me a lot of money that day. Best racing was still to come. A real shame.

Yes, tragic news re Hot Shot Brother. Commiserations to the connections.


Quick post mortem on the Winterbottom. Not taking anything away from the winner (who looks to have developed into a extra smart sprinter – clocking 1:08:66 for the 1200M) but did have the race handed to her on a platter. Have some doubt that she can repeat over 1400M or longer against same class field. Thought the runs of the race were from both Redwoldt and Modem. Both didn’t have the best of runs yet made up a lot of ground on the winner over the concluding stage. Expect great things from these 2 over next couple of months. Hardrada and Prince Of Vasac who were not suited under the weight scale, also put in good runs, both running on well over the concluding stages. I was a little surprised to see Refemme backing up so quickly (won on Tuesday) – not really wanted in the market and raced accordingly.
