I have an average about 50% across books 1 and 2 the last couple of years.

Yes. I was agreeing with you!

Why would he have to set up in Oz to race one horse there?

Allowing for the fact that 3yos are still improving at this stage, do you think anything in that field would have challenged Tuxedo and Hinekaha?

That would be my bet too.

There is only one bonus. So, it can't be won in both those races. I doubt whether she has her first races here or in Oz next season will make a lot of difference to them that would be influenced by the stake money.

Yes they are. I'll post them when I get them. Great betting day, that's why Entain love them. Cost the industry a fortune though. Last I looked the winner was an Oz bred? I seriously doubt that the bonus will make any difference as to whether WW contests early spring races here. As I've also said, I'll wait and see if she is up to the Oz older horses.

I guess only time will tell about our age group races. Well Written maybe?

True. That said, they have minced a Group 1 race here which says what for the relative quality of our G1s?

That was Hesi's description, not mine.

How do you rate the fields quality now that those second and third tier Aussies have done their thing?

True. But why on earth would anyone want to stop the tide? The export business keeps the whole industry afloat. 50% of next weeks book 1/2 yearlings will be exported. Wouldn't you want to support it?
