This bloke is a moral to love the wet.

Again they could have found a 1400m contest to kick off in.

Where can we see his jump outs ?

I can almost ALMOST guarantee whatever he does on a dry track he will do even better on a wet track. The wetter the better.

Last weeks heavy 25 would have been perfect.

Suspect he'd been gelded before his first start but the amended stable return hadn't been submitted or processed.

Did nothing today after his nice debut run.

Very poorly placed today.

Needs a heck of a lot further and these are not the trainers to do it.

Djebel, I agree. The Obssession with speed continues.
Australian racing is only good up to 1400m in terms of world standards when it comes to depth/quality in numbers

Ellerton and Zahra have made a plodder out of this gelding.

He should have debut over this trip.

Kicks off his summer campaign in the 1300m 3yo maiden at Geelong today.

There was enough promise in his first 4 starts to suggest he’s got a future, so worth following off whatever he does today.

First up effort at Geelong over 1300m was satisfactory enough for me to have a bet on him tonight - R2 at Cranbourne over 1600m.

Thanks SC & Carioca.  One bet, one win is a good day indeed.

Kudos to djebel for initially putting this guy in our radar last year.

This guy has accepted for the Tasmanian Derby 2200m on Friday.

Haven’t done the form for the race yet but he’s up against a few interesting rivals from other Vic stables.

Staggered t his guy is 33/1 for the Derby.

He is no moral but I was expecting no more than single figures.
