Avilius

Surely the Caulfield cup be better suited.

I understand the ins and outs but fair dinkum, no fan can be happy to see him spelling after todays trot and canter.

Mean while Winx has another stroll in the park.

Sure it probably would have been anyway but it would place some substance into her effort.

Crikeys, it might even boost her rating.

Shame Winx isn't facing TAS or A :(

He is undefeated in Sydney.

He should never go near Moonee Valley again.

Anyone playing in Dubai tonight? Is it usually a favorites meeting?

Why the rider change today ... Mcevoy off , McDonald on.

Kerrin has already been booked for Red Cardinal when Godolphin decides to run Avilius.
His other rider Bowman was in Dubai, so they booked JMac.

He is flying that's for sure. Apart from the Australian Cup run..it's been a good campaign

I believe he had an issue in that race mate.

Can't remember, but he is much better than those.

"C'mon , what has he done that would worry Winx ..   look at the clock to compare their wins . Winx could carry him and win.

I never suggested he'd win mate. Winx is better no doubt.

Just be good to see an in form, quality horse against Winx not the rubbosh we've seen all Autumn.

It's just hreat for racing to have good horses in G1s. Not Waller Camels making up fields.

Avilius is a better horse than Happy Clapper.

No no no.....he should run in the QE mate.

There's literally no good horses here so surely Godolphin have a crack.....

Don't mention Harlem ever again!!

Very surprised to see him starting his campaign in the Warwick Stks on Saturday over 1400m.

Both local campaigns he’s resumed over 1600m & won both times, so expected the Chelmsford Stks would have been more his go.
