Jet Master

13 years 7 months ago
#170008
I was wondering if anyone had news about Jet Master ... how is he getting on? ... recovering OK I hope. Just watched one of his sons, Lizarre, win the main race at Kranji today, over 2200 m.

Mind you I had to grin when Jimmy Lithgow commented indignantly after the race that the Aussie commentators ignored Lizarre in their pre-race chat, though he was 2nd favourite. It's been my opinion since I started watching TT years ago that the Hong Kong and Singapore (Aussie) commentators prefer to forget SA-bred horses and ignore them as much as they possibly can. Competition?

Aus-triches with their little heads buried in the sand.

Jimmy Lithgow stands to be corrected as both Craig Evans and Andrew Frost both tipped Lizarre in Race 10. I do believe that our presenters, who spend many hours studying the card, are very astute and base their selections on form and not where the horse was bred.

I don't think Jimmy Lithgow was referring to the tipping, but to the pre-race talk-up ... mind you, we only get to hear bits and pieces of it in TT (sometimes almost nothing), so I do apologise for asserting with too little evidence. I went only on what he said plus what I heard, which was not the complete discussion. Sorry!

Top stallion and jump in now while they are still on the market. Rumour has it he will not cover again, but I realy hope this is not true. Always great when our own home bred stallions do so well!

Thanks Scotia :)

It's an enormous privilege to make a small contribution to his story, just a shame it's under such sad circumstances.

Thanks all.

Let's just hope all the learned folks can find a solution. Would be nice to see Jet Master back again.
