Wellington Cup Field 🫣


Recommended Posts

Oh dear, what a terrible field today for the Wellington Cup. Must be the worst collection of mostly average hacks running around…..

So many great previous winners that performed well or won the Melbourne Cup, Il Tempo, Simon De Montfort, Battle Heights, Good Lord, Koiro Trelay, Kiwi, Secured Deposit, Castletown, Second Coming….compare some of those horses to the nags running today.

Maybe the time has come to race the cup over a shorter distance, may get a far better class horses running around….Australia must be laughing at that field.

Yep and the first 600m will be drone footage or flashes in between piles of dirt and housing!  

Although there is one of the best Grp 3 Stakes on offer in the World!  $400,000!

Who is this Erin Leighton? Nothing against her but we have so many so called experts talking before race starts….why not hear more from trainers or owners, be far more interesting than a girl sitting on a horse telling us all the horses coats look good in the sun 🤭

Trying to mimic what Bernadette Cooper used to do in OZ.  When she was in the parade ring at Hastings late last year she just seemed to get in the way.

Then you add the continuity presenters in the studio like the Guy "I'm an expert on all sports" Heveldt and horses have been loaded and gone.
