She sure was! Amazing effort to get 2nd really after having to go around the back of the three leaders. They broke 1:10, good track.thewizard1o1 said:Queen of the Hill was a good thing beaten in the first...Saab is a tough race not sure who i will donate my money to the TAB on yet...
Mr Celebrity is a top chance in the Saab of course, and the weird runner is Envoy. He was useless here at the start of his career, but then he came 4th in the Kelt at the start of this month and went alright at Geelong I think it was, late bloomer obviously! Not sure how he'll measure up in this field.

Have to watch out for those goats.
Starcraft came 7th today in the Breeders' Cup Classic...was in a great position but just didn't run on, possibly the dirt track or the longer distance weren't to his liking. The winner was impressive. Not sure why they put Starcraft in the Classic, the Mile (on turf) had a much weaker field and I believe he would have won that easily.

I'd like to get into horse racing but I just don't know enough about it. Do you eventually just recognise a good horse when you see it race after a while of following it?

I cant comment on Phar Lap, as look, to be honest, i only saw the last half of its career.... but seriously, i cant comment on that horse, but Makybe is by FAR the most dominant horse of this era, and im pretty sure i'll never ever see a horse like it.

Its a fair call, i think its ridiculous they watered the track, certainly just to make sure Makybe and Vinnie would run, but to be honest i think the horse is so good that it wouldnt have mattered, might of altered the minor placings though, i know Freyer (the trainer of Leica Falcon) wasnt happy at all, along wih other top trainers such as Waterhouse. Guess we'll never know what could have happened though.nibbs said:
