Nice run by Albert the Fat!!!

Didn't think he could do it at WFA.

If I trained him, I'd freshen him for a week or so as he seems to run best 1st and 2nd up.

yea real nice pickup today already on him at the $40 for the straddie also on fifteen carat at $100 e/w which looked good value after todays run i would imagine the derby will be well and truly an after thought was there to fight it out but couldn't finish off.

Watched the replay
Ridden just off the speed

The fat into 14's (hope you all put something on)
Ortensia into 5's , very short considering she'll be around that mark on the day.
Catapulted 21's into 9's but the 1400m is the query (velocitea must be value then). Border rebel is flying and has come in to 9's aswell.

Interesting Mr unforgetable has shortened , i thought he was ok yesterday but needed to show more. i'd forget pinwheel in that race aswell.

Rothesay is the only other i'm considering and i dont know much about Hay List so i might do some research.


The weights come out tomorrow so that will be interesting

Backed The Fat at $85.00 on B/F then laided him at $40 so have a free bet running on him at $45.00 in the straddy

Think the straddie will be right up his alley so long as they ride him off the pace, he can really peel off some closing sectionals

bet wise bet smart

Just put a bet on as well. Now they had their little experiment with the distance the prep should be back on traget for the stradbroke you would think. $101 looks like the best roughie in the market now.

What about Red Lord? It ran on well a few weeks ago didn't it? Remember Cummings saying it was being set for this. Good enough?

Red Lord has a devastating turn of foot at times. Will need a break neck speed. Would have loved to see Cummings try this with the horse two years ago but can't be written off.
Seems to be a Group 3 horse but Cummings has always had tickets on it for higher honours......
