  1. Give yourself an upper cut mate, and you deserve. you back a horse driven by van til yet leave out sarah the best since Dexter...
  2. She's a mediocre driver mate, I would be wary of ever backing her. Wait till they have the right driver then get on mate.
  3. Thanks, I know you are a good judge mate so I respect your opinion. It's going to be a great race. You are right St Louis won't cop a 1:47 but he won't be the only one. There's only two or three in that field capable of something like that. That's what I'm saying if they go that pace it is set up for honolulu Bay or Captain Ravishing to come from off the pace, but you can't be too far off the pace, need to be two lengths behind at most... Go Captain Ravishing...
  4. I'm picking a new Australasian mile record mate! Record currently held by My Field Marshall, 1:46.9 set when winning the Miracle Mile in 2018 I think. Of course he was trained by respected ex-Kiwi Mr Timothy Butt. Spirit of St Louis will be in the money, get on...
  5. He never goes a bad race Gamma. Grimson does such a great job with the horse. He's racing in G1 company most starts and ultra-consistent, generally first or second. Yes, he was unlucky the other night and he'll need luck again. but I have won plenty off him so stick with him. I also think he is the best horse in the race, only Krug on his best day has similar ability. BD Joe length or two down on I Cast No Shadow in my opinion. Can Money Rocks win again for strike rate tipster Gamma....? Republican Party a good horse maybe not quite as good as the Aussie top liners, good enough to win with a soft run?
  6. Spirit of St Louis should get the run of the race. I think he is almost a certainty to run in the money and he will be at good odds if get on early. Honolulu Bay will look for the front and Mach Dan although drawn very wide will still have a go... what else can he do? Captain Ravishing will need luck. Maybe if the do a sub 1:48 pace it will be set up for a swooper from the back... go Captain Ravishing. It's a great field and I am looking forward to the race. Once again, TAB no early market for the Miracle Mile. The fixed odds should be up now, hopeless. The Miracle Mile is one of Australiasia's premier harness racing. It is a hard race to win, and it's hard to get a start as a select field. It's a race that every trainer would love to win. It is shameful that such a heritage is disrespected by NZ Tab where harness is a distant third to gallop/dog/sport. Shameful. Earlier on the card I'll stick with I Cast No Shadow, he's drawn poorly but extra distance will suit. The horse is honest and will be at good money again as Kiwis will back Krug, BD Joe
  7. I have backed Interdom champ I Cast No Shadow at great odds, again, $13/3.50! I have won plenty off the horse, in his last few starts so stick with him Gamma. Young Trainer will put him in the race at some stage. I'm confident...
  8. Luk Chin, legend. Gavin Hampton long ago last century drove a few winners.
  9. Maybe mate, but Captain Treacherous stock sold this year at sales there is bound to be two or three top liners among them. Some will get a bargain.
  10. Yes, it was a great effort by Catch A Wave, they dealt to the rest of the field a long way from home. I'm not making excuses but I think it wasn't the smartest drive from young Pitt. I don't know why he took off so early when he appeared to have them all covered? I guess they were trying to make some sort of statement but it backfired! I think if he had waited until the home stretch and said go the result would be different. I think Captain Ravishing knocked off in the last 100m and Pitt tried to get him going again but momentum lost. Yes, when they are going 1:49 rate not many can keep up.
  11. Look mate the horse is something special. I've seen plenty of good ones but what he showed last start. He jogged it, looked to be in first gear with plenty of gears to go. Heza Sun Of Agun, is a top horse that would be competitive anywhere, he couldn't keep up. I think this horse will break the Australasian mile record when he wins the Miracle. I know it is a hard race to win, but this fellow will do it. Currently, the Australiasian record is held by the arsenic tonic fuelled My Field Marshal, trained by ex Kiwi, Mr Timothy Butt, when he won the miracle mile in 2018(?) in 1:47.9. Captain Ravishing will win the Miracle Mile in 1:47.2 or faster. Think about it. He's a stallion, best son on boom sire Captain Treacherous so his stud career is assured in the U.S. too. The horse could earn over $2m this season in the next few starts. The Miracle Mile is one of the hardest races in Australasia to win but I think Captain Ravishing will do it. He'll be too short to back so just glory in watching a freak in action. I can't wait...
  12. Captain Ravishing will bolt in. I am expecting something big from this horse in the next few starts.
  13. I backed Cast No Shadow because of the price $21 here Gamma!!!! He was drawn to win. I thought I had it won but Honolua Bay gutted it out. There were some great performances in that race. Copy That poor when has to work... What about Captain Ravishing. WTF???? Did you see him smash them in Race 3, mate? Wow!!! Heza A Sun Of Agun is a top horse and he couldn't keep up, none of the field could. Is he a freak?
  14. Yes, Gamma it was good to see. Copy That is not the same horse if he has to do a lot of work. Once again the horse suffers a bleed when he doesn't get a soft lead and dictating terms. Make him work he will fold...
  15. I am interested in Race 3 at Melton, 4yo Bonanza. There's some good horses in that race: Invitation Only, Captain Ravishing, and Heza Sun Of Agun all top-liners and capable of winning. Captain Ravishing could be the best of them all. He's definitely a future star. It's going to be a great night of harness action.
