Wonder if Fonc or PMD are going to bag Berry for his ride on Masked Crusader today?

No-one with more than half a brain takes any serious notice of Wayne (Fonc) Hawkes.  Can't train much himself, and largely lives off his dad and brother's horses who come down to Melbourne fit and ready to win.  All he has to do is maintain their fitness levels and bignote on Racing.com.

As for Masked Crusader, this from Voyager whose opinion most here seriously respect: "he is one dimensional like Chautauqua. His early gate speed at anything up to 1200m is not ideal for winning more races than he loses (at the top level).  I assume he is continuing on for the All Aged and maybe the 1400m can see him sit closer".

McEvoy could've ridden the ears off the horse earlier on and probably still get beaten by more than he was on Saturday.

Nick, I just have to wonder why it's always the jockey's fault when this galloper gets beat.
