I like the comment by Raw Instinct. I have put Honor babe, Grey Song, Strasbourg and Makybe Diva as my early pick.

Umrum I might be wrong there and I could be wrong with what I am going to say here that I believe it is the race which qualified Brew for the cup a couple of years back.

i could be wrong R.I but i think brew qualified through the 2500metre Saab quality at flemington on derby day. I think yippyio won the mv cup that year.

cheers

Actually now that you say it you very well might be right it sounds very familiar cause off memory I backed Brew in the M V Cup and a friend backed Yippyio and i vaguely remember he won.


I have just sat down and listened to racing retro and on there Joe McKinnon said to Alf Mathews that Bart would have to run Frightening in the M V Cup to qualify him and then Alf returned to say the horse wouldn't run 2 mile down a well.

As far as Frightening goes I personally think that it is a better horse than Rogan Josh it won the cup I think it was lucky but it got there. Obviously Bart knows how to get horses right for that one race because if it weren't for him Rogan Josh would never have even made the field let alone won the race. Just my opinion ofcourse.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

A horse doesn't finish 4th in a Caulfield Cup, Win the Mackinnon as well as the Melbourne Cup and fluke it.

Like I said it was my opinion I didn't rate the horse never did and never will I know it didn't show to much after the cup. Ofcourse this is to long ago for my poor head to remember properly.
