I have had a decent size bet at $2.4 on Plein Ciel today.

Granted Moss 'n' Dale is a mudlark who is fit and in form, but I have Plein Ciel a class above and he can win this fresh like he did first up last prep despite blowing a gale.

$2.3 is still around. I feel he SPs closer to evens.

Six wide the trip is not a good way to be riding this horse

Ride him too arrogant , too far back , too wide was still closing in on them at the finish, if he came up the inside and reached the winner he probably wins

Agreed - could have poked along at the back rather than swinging so deep.

Shocking ride. He couldn't have rode it any better if he was trying to get it beat. No urgency to tack on, lost touch at least twice, then with acres of space on the rail and through the middle he pushes very deep and gave away at least 5 lengths to the winner.

Diabolical.

nothing beats self interest - proper form students backed Moss N Dale into fav so there was a reason ! The best horse won on the day and he was the favourite so everyone's happy

Moss n dale, third up , rock hard fit , known heavy tracker , fav in market , ridden a treat didn't cover any ground was clear of trouble , found right part of track . City winner. Wins

Plein Ciel first up, didn't look rock hard fit, although looked fitter than first up last time, untried on heavy track, gives leader 7 lengths and is two lengths off second last horse in running, Covers extra ground, fans 15 wide after having a muddling run, storms home for a fast finishing 1.5 length 3rd . class horse , bigger fish to fry over further distance.

That's racing

Is Moss n Dale the better horse? I think that is what Manny was saying?

Or did Plien Ciel just race lengths below its best

I read he expressed it as the best horse "on the day" meaning he was primed for the win and all stars aligned . Can I add 13 starts for 7 wins that's pretty damn good. MND has as many wins as PC has had races. I sill think PC has a lot more improvement to come though. As far as the better horse, only time will tell

Why are we discussing Moss and Dale on this thread. Start a Moss and Dale thread if you want to waffle on about him

I got your question to him and it was relevant and I think you know the answer.

Of course Moss 'n' Dale is not a better horse.

The smart money I think was for Plein Ciel it was a dog of a ride, reminded me of Billy Idol on Veandercross.

I did say that there are no excuses in a 6 horse race and it is a throw away line that is kind of true.

Plein Ciel could be a very good horse, I liked the fact he was sweating profusely down his neck, white lather which spells the end for most horses however he flew home.

There are bigger and better things in store for him who knows he might even sneak into a Caulfield Cup field one day.
Manny used self interest as the evil of all mankind yet then proceeded to make comments full of his own self interest.

Winners are grinners and the rest can please themselves is a well known saying however I think it is a weak outlook.

Plein Ciel was given a perfectly good ride.  Had every possible chance.  Plein Ciel ran well.  It is just that Moss 'N' Dale ran better
