After that performance, I began to question myself, but I think it's more Damien Oliver has found the key to getting her to settle and use the least energy.
Low and behold, she steps out at Flemington and this is what Winks had to say after finishing dead last:
Belle Couture – rider J Winks reported was fractious in the barriers, stumbled on jumping, was slow into stride and failed to travel throughout. A post race veterinary examination failed to reveal any abnormal findings.
Stewards have her on watch, maybe she has to trial.

Being fractious, slow out and stumbling would be it for a leader, but they planned to come home from back in the field, the fact she made zero ground tends to suggest she used up all her nervous energy just prior to the gates opening.

Is this going to be one of those sad stories of a horse with great potential, not being able to exhibit it on track because of lack of understanding.

She has a very long way to go to recoup the fortune they outlayed on her.


Yep, next start 12th of 13.
D Lane, rider of Belle Couture, reported that he was not entirely happy with the filly’s action. A post race veterinary examination of Belle Couture failed to reveal any abnormal findings.
This is one nervous horse that will never be as good as her sibling.
They've lost a fortune!

Belle Couture retired due to injury.
Sad for the horse and connections, but paying huge overs for unproven stock always ends in tears, especially when you try and extract money from immature 2yo's.

Next comes Black Caviar's foal.
What price you think it will go for?
What age will they start it racing at?
How much will it earn?

I think the answers are obvious, but I'll post when it happens yet again.

Just heard a strong rumour that Black Caviar will be mated with Frankel next season.
The price of THAT foal would have to be the highest ever on record.
But will that foal be an expensive dud?
I'd like to think not, but history just keeps repeating itself.
It would be great for racing if the foal were to be the next superstar though.

Super Striders have now exceeded $3.5 million in earnings since starting to follow them last year. Those earnings do NOT include prizemoney for greater than third place, to offset nomination and jockey fees somewhat.
