    • just watched the whale tip holly highlander on whale watchon trackside  and immediately it price dropped from $4.80 to $4. I think it will drop even more myself.. the whale has his followers.
    • i see the bookies have go home denise a $2.50 favorite. Occasionally you see some at unusual odds,but go home denise a $2.50 favorite takes the cake.I think it should be paying $15 myself. Holly highlander,a horse who has won 7 races and over $100,000 should really be the $2.50 favorite. Oh well,we will see whether the bookies get it right after race 5 is run.
    • I think it was a great race day all round, with good sized fields containing lots of form, that would have attracted a lot of betting.  We never really know because figures are never published. The track was good, despite attempts to claim a leader bias, that is probably more a poor ride than bias.  The track had 132 mm of rain over the last 7 days and was rated a S5, Ellerslie never gets to be better than a G4 these days.  So despite the early criticism by many, it is providing a good racing surface even after substantial rain has fallen.  Note that New Plymouth had H10 with only a third of the amount of rain. Comparing it to Aus racing. The Railway showed again that we are lucky to be at G2 level, with 2 2nd string sprinters dominating, although the run of Sweynesday was indeed very good.  A shame another up and comer First Five did not contest the race The 2 year old KM, a win to what can only be rated as a 3rd tier Aussie horse, but only just beat a very much unheralded NZ horse with daylight back to third The 4 year old KM.  2 NZ horses reasonably comfortable over a 3rd tier Aus horse The 3 year old KM.  No Aus horses, but I doubt there is a horse in Aus that could have come close to Well Written, and I presume the reason why no Aus 3 year olds made the trip.  Further to the title of this thread unless I get castigated for going off topic lol, it may indeed attract Well Written to contest 1 or 2 of the HB G1's as apparently the condition of sale being that Marsh must continue to train the horse.  So I presume the horse will be based in NZ then travel to Aus for any Autumn or Spring races
