Not sure if Callan Murray had the choice between JO MOLONE and SPRING WONDER?

Hewitson first ride as an Appie on mod Barley, good luck to the lad for his career and I think his claim is going to become like gold going forward!

love LH and he has a massive future, but is it a bad sign that he was fast tracked, does this mean his class mates are not as hot?

Trying to get my posts in whilst at work because my computer at home is on the blink and I am posting off an I-Pad which I am not too familiar with. I am not techno-savvy.

Anyway on to serious matters. I am disappointed that Spring Dance in the 9th is scratched, really thought that that would have gone close, and maybe at a decent price.

For me the best bet on the card is Buckland in the 8th. Just needs to be pointed in the right direction.

In race 7, I feel Swift Sarah is the one to be with. She does appear well in against many of her rivals.
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

i think to be fair he's completed his education and has ridden i think 23 winners so no point in him sitting around as he does not need to be in class for any education other than equine studies.

I agree ...........before I read this response ,I was going to say "it depends what fast track means ..........................He is being "fast tracked" after waiting many more years than most, to get on track

The lifestyle of a jock is really tough so I personally believe they should be much stricter and weed out the future "assistants" earlier as race-riding is really demanding especially if you don't have natural talent.

Swift Sarah, looks a top sprinter in the making coming back in trip. Nice weight. Looks a decent bet.

Heard a few whispers about the Tarry first timer Flying Myth. Could be quick being a Trippi. One to watch for any betting moves.
