Master Of Wine

He wasn’t up to G1 class last spring, but if the stable places him to advantage, there’s wins in store for him.

Think he’d be a nice horse for a Brisbane winter carnival campaign consisting of a Hollindale Cup, Doomben Cup & then the Q22 Stks.

With much of the Brisbane carnival cancelled last year, I think many trainers have forgotten about the massive prizemoney up there.  That Q22 race is a 2200m WFA race worth $1.2m!

It would be bold to suggest he could knock off VE & Addeybb, but will definitely include him in box trifecta.

Could have been a live chance in the Tancred if he wen there, but they’ve stuck to the easier race.

Only has 55.5kg under SW+P conditions, so surely wins this?

Like you I thought the drop in grade would help but could not have him at those odds.

Stable must have found something wrong with him, as there would have been heaps of suitable races in Qld winter for him otherwise.

That’s a quote from a professional form analyst from last year.  

Has the ‘window’ closed for this guy to win a good race?  This time last year he was just behind the placings in a few G1’s.  After a mixed autumn, his 2 efforts this time have been fine without being flashing light runs.

Currently 20/1 in the Kingston Town Stks 2000m.  Anyone interested in him tomorrow?

Maybe even the St Leger.

I think today’s G3 placing actually sees him pass the ballot clause for the Melb Cup, so he should shoot you the order of entry to somewhere in the mid-30’s.  With a little attrition above him, he may actually make the field.
