Have to disagree Stu, what created the hole was the outside-in rushing defence of the Warriors, thus creating the hole to the inside which Benji stepped back into

Geez, this game has fallen away quickly..

5m back? Surely not Stu..

That’s a terrible decision from The Bunker..

Great analysis Phil, you got the trifecta in order. Well done mate!!
William Reid Stakes 2016: Historical perspective
Nice article Phil. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on the stallion prospects of Preferment who must surely be well-sought after given the distances he has won at and of course, being by Zabeel?
Tavistock filling the void left by High Chaparral
Protest upheld. Bowman and Waller argued their case well. Increasingly valuable stallion prospect Preferment!!

Great historical analysis Phil, thanks mate!!
Melbourne Cup 2015: Recent history can find us a winner
What a special win.. was a pleasure to watch. As a mare, I can’t wait to see her go around for years to come (fingers crossed!!) and not be shipped off to stud. She is the kind of horse racing needs. The crowd at the pub I was in were applauding from the 200 metre mark, many of whom were not there simply to watch the race
Cox Plate Result: Winx wins in brilliant record time [VIDEO REPLAY]
Another cracking instalment of the great race. Couldn’t possibly bet with much confidence but will be hoping that Criterion drifts in the market and if so, I’ll be jumping on each-way
2015 Cox Plate: Preview and tips
Spot on Justin.. I thought Grand Marshall ran a great MCup trial. The horse looked like he had hardly raced in the day-stalls afterwards. Fame Game looked much the same as well
Melbourne Cup 2015: What the Caulfield Cup means for the field
Nice article Cam and as always, I enjoyed reading through all the contributions from everyone above. I got hooked on racing because of the horses themselves, but love that a day at the track offers something for everyone.
I’m heading down for my first Caulfield Cup this weekend and like yourself Cam, am dragging along 3 mates (let’s call them Tom, DIck and Harry) with little interest in the sport. Despite this, convincing them to join me for the weekend was simple. Tom loves a beer so was easily sold, Dick spends most weekends chasing women so a day at the races was a no-brainer, whilst Harry works in finance so the chance to make a quick buck appealed to him. Like I said, racing offers something for everyone with this facet of the sport, or more accurately the ‘event’ that is the major carnivals, key to its ongoing appeal. Recent marketing campaigns from the ATC and VRC have highlighted this.
Horse racing as a sporting event and a social event can coincide. This all-round appeal is what makes for an enjoyable day-out no matter what the priorities of the individual.
Spring Racing Carnival: The social aspect as important as the racing
A couple of Waller’s horses have received horror draws, as was the case last week. Very much warming to Mongolian Khan!!
Caulfield Cup 2015: Barrier draw results
Great days racing. Agree with the 3 horses you’ve selected to follow, happy to throw in Flamingo Star, Tarzino and Sovereign Nation going forward too
Past the Post: Caulfield and Randwick wrap
Admittedly I was one to underestimate Criterion coming into this race, he seemed the forgotten horse but wow.. another quality win. Loved the run of Mongolian Khan leading into the Caufield Cup.. will relish getting back out to the 2400m

Not sure what Waller has in stall for Flamingo Star going forward (maybe the Emirates?) but will definitely be following him. Full credit to the winner after finding trouble in the run
2015 Toorak Handicap: racing live updates, tips and results
Dominant performance from Press Statement. Bucked the winning trend of the day to lead all the way, not to mention his own previous racing pattern. Great win. Tarzino put in a great finish leading onto the VRC Derby
2015 Caulfield Guineas: Racing live updates, tips, results
I didn’t think Thurston deserved the medal last night, but in reality, he was always going to be awarded it in a Cowboys victory as it suited the narrative of the whole Cowboys premiership. By the way, DCE the best on ground in the 2013 GF in my eyes..
Can we avoid another Churchill Medal fiasco?
I thought Who Shot The Barman ran a great race in the Turnbull and is tracking along very nicely. Will need to be at its best to top the winner though.. could be a huge future both on and off the track for this son of Zabeel

A couple of poor options from Rioli there but the Dockers just can’t manage to clear the ball. Relentless pressure from the Hawks

Pearce not looking healthy in the sheds at half-time. Would be surprised to see him back out there

Reed is moving way to late in defence. He is a shocker for planting his feet in the defensive line.. a cardinal sin for an outside back

Well done on the trifecta in the Golden Pendant mate.. in order too if you don’t mind!!
