@Englander - How you picked those 2 horses ill never know!

Race 4

Inn on the square - Likes sand track. Going back to a mile. Rested. If stamina holds, should lead start to finish.

Cerise Silk - Last time it ran 1600 was way down the field. 4 horses from that field have gone on to win. Previous distances may have been too short. Will need to run a big race, but the odds are juicy.

I am looking at Video Game and cannot see any reason ot back this horse. Stormed from the back of a strong field to finish 3rd but was 600m shorter than todays distance. When it ran 1200 it struggled with tiredness towards the end. Betting says different though.

The runner up did appeal slightly Richie, the winner was just on price and price movement, thrown in with Danzig in s/fs and trifectas... skill basis, 2% tops

I like this one as well

Being stupid (but serious!)...

Oslo Ballet
Ezzah

:

Quite a few early and late shouts on Cad Baby.. well done guys (tu) shame Ezzah ran out of puff, was quite hopeful for a while

This P.A is getting more & more difficult to catch

I think it's best I concentrate on English Jackpots

Nowadays its about all I can win:S

@Magi -- great call on Cadilac baby early on.

Good the rest of you guys as well.

Only Phi in this race for me!

Did the winner not take the ground of the second there? I know there was no contact but the winner definitely came right across and the second had to switch and given it was only a couple of strides from getting up at the line... can't see there being a review but I don't think that was a deserving winner. Anyway...

So far today

2nd, 1st, 3rd, bush, 3rd.
