Yeah absolutely! He’s a hard one to catch. Apart from Betcha Flying it was a dark day for me. Great to be back on dry and without bias, but my head’s sore today

Hope you did better than me! Was Raheen unlucky? Verry Elleegant was gallant but wow, Addeybb might be pretty special. Cox Plate re-match?

All Hughie at the moment! With the heavy track I’m subbing Santa for Pierata (one unit)

Big day, going to miss not being out there. What’s your best AD? Another group 1 for Jay?

You’re a purist Steven! Enjoy the day, might be a good one to sit out, very tricky. Hopefully it falls my way. What’s your best?

Both of the imports were too strong – hard-riden way out and up off the canvas.
I’m gutted about Miss Leonidas, sooooo close

Master of Wine might get a big race over the carnival if the wet hangs around, impressive effort! I think the Melbourne form will stack up, Regal Power is the real deal. Will find out more about the sprinters after next week with the Reid and Galaxy leading to the TJ.

Quick changes for scratchings in races 4 & 8: Race 4 – 11 Villami. Race 8 – 2 The Chosen One. One unit on each, will add the extra unit onto Wild Planet in Melbourne

The shark was amazing, I thought the dry surface wasn’t ideal and the NZ win was against plodders – he’s a star.
Probabeel was great too, throw Melody Belle in and we have some super kiwi runners across the place right now. And that’s leaving Catalyst out! Btw – what about Alligator Blood, wow

Another forgettable day for me Steven, thankfully did well in HK to save face! Would be surreal at the track there right now but the precautions are pretty sound I reckon.
Quality racing, bring on Autumn

Thanks mate – there’s a high volume of articles and this is pretty niche, hopefully a few winners and some more comments (cheers!) and we’ll be the header item when the Championships come around.

Will be interesting to see how the track plays next week – will they over-correct? Was a tough day, hopefully back on track tomorrow

Lyon certainly couldn’t have done worse than Doherty/Maxwell on day two. The concern now is that cleaning up a slogging tail will blinker the selectors thinking on the best squad
