    To be fair it was always going to end in disaster as there is only so many times you can sand slit a track. Te Rapa has been "off" for a number of years now. The remedy worked initially but you can't keep repeating it. Is Ellerslie heading down the same Sandy path?

    Then whose fault is the following? Meeting News Waikato Trials Tuesday 21 August The trials to be conducted on the trials track at Te Rapa on Tuesday will be for Open and Maiden horses (over 900m and 1100m) and will have a maximum of 6 horses per heat with the trials restricted to a total of 120 horses.

    Disagree she runs a lot more fluently Melbourne way round.

    I didn't know there were degrees of pissed. I thought you either were or weren't! In any event on the Timeform ratings Winx is only 3lb below Kingston Town. If she continues through this season unbeaten then she will likely surpass that. I would argue that even Kingston Town couldn't have done what Winx did to win the Warwick Stakes last year. Missing the start and running better than 32.5 for the last 600m was a supremo effort. They broke 1:22 for that race. She backed that up in the Chelmsford. With 300m to run she was still 5 lengths from the leader. I understand her sectionals were sensational.

    Miracle Mal the regular jockey of Kingston Town has been quoted as rating Winx as good as him. Jimmy Cassidy has been quoted as saying that she is better than Might and Power.

    Yes Doomden 2200m. Queensland Oaks.

    Winx has won from 1100m to 2040m. In racing there are only two distances left 2400m and 3200m. Winx also has a win strike rate of 83%. 10 points more than Kingston Town. Harder to win over long distance now with the amount of true stayers imported from overseas.

    I don't think her action is that efficient the Sydney way round. She tends to hang and I swear she semi changed strides over the final stages.

    I thought a telling interview was with Rogie after his 3 year old filly won - he said the jockey told him before the race that he INTENDED to sit wide on the outer throughout the race to avoid the sand and dirt being thrown back in his and the horse's faces. Rogie said he didn't like the plan but the jockey stuck to his intention and the filly won. Rogie was philosophical about the jockey's tactics after the race but was close to being scathing about the state of track. "What a way to have to ride a nice young horse because of the state of the track."
