Ran 1.17.4 actually. 9.7 seconds the last 200, if you believe their clock, but never managed to win a Group 1 (from memory). But yes, I think she could actually, even though she's not a 1400m horse. Remember Longchamp is downhill.
I think I saw her telling Hughie that yesterday. "You've gone too soon Hughie. Now we're wasting energy covering all this extra ground. Let's just wait for the 200 when I can see the winning post and we'll go from there. Won't be a problem."
I just don't see how he can be so thick. Nobody agrees with him except maybe a bunch of other losing punters out there that haven't given this much thought.
You'll have to say a bit more. You've lost me. The question was about the evidence that German horses bleed less than those in the rest of the world. Please point us to the evidence.
They'll be the same statistics that show that horses with blinkers on first time generate a greater ROI than those without, or similarly those dropping back from black type races. That is, there are none. It's another hunch being fraudulently promoted by the resident fraudster.
Yep. I invest next to nothing on NZ racing except for the odd day out. No issues with the variables between the straight 6 and HQ. What I can't figure out is the ability of horses to handle tracks that are a Fast 2 down the back, like my cow paddock and a dead 4 round the turn and a decent Good 3 in the straight on the outside fence and a Slow 7 on the rail. I know some can do it but at this stage it's beyond me. I'd rather race and bet where there are consistent surfaces.
