84 rater winning the richest sprint race in the world(?) would be a story for the ages. Real odds - 66/1. Then again I gave Brave Smash absolutely none last year.

He won't be winning on that, he was flat as a tack the last 100, up the rise at Randwick he will be attacked good and proper.

He wasn’t even let down.
Obviously the Everest is months away, a short spell will do him well

You could not rubbish him on that effort. He was running away from the field 600 from home, got a little tired near home, but held a little longer he wins that by 5.

Apart from Trapeze Artiest, Nature Strip will not need to be remotely group 1 level to run 2nd in The Everest.

If he has a Group 1 it’s a Galaxy or Oakleigh Plate for mine. Looks a 1000/1100m horse. Moir in the Spring looks a better race than the Everest, unless they can teach him to settle with cover.

He's run about 12 lengths plus faster than the open aged 1200m listed race.

That open age race was not listed class, it is a make believe Donald trump fake news listed event!

Do not forget he would carrying the same or a little more weight, he will betaking on proper group 1 horses in Shoals, Santa Ana Lane, Redzel and of course Trapeze Artist.

A tick over 1.10.05 was a good run, but he needs to improve to be a top four hope in an everest and if you are a slot holder is that gooe enough for your representative?

That is the question you need to ask yourself.
Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise

He's a 3yo who's had three trainers this year and been in work for 8 months, albeit with a let-up mid prep, so has certainly had enough now.

A month let-up to recover and develop just a bit, then probably two runs by the time the Everest is run.  

Whether he actually measures up to contest the event, let alone perform in the event, remains an unknown just yet imo.

Having a look at the splits he ran a 10.42 from the 1000 to the 800, which was way quicker than he needed to go. Ambled home in 12.67.... If they can harness that speed he might run a strong 1200 but I think he’ll be more effective over the short trip. Very fast horse.

He beat nothing, he was ridden out with the stick, fiddlesticks.......he wouldn't live with the likes of Redzel and co.

You are so predictable, maybe you should check your facts before posting such ludicrous rubbish.. unless of course you have proof that Mrs Smerdon is a criminal?


Didn’t think so.

Just more lies from you. Grow up, you are a grown man, not a child.
