As for the Rose, positive is the jockey, negative is the distance, i know some on here say she is always battling on at finish, but i dont think she will run the 1600m too well today.

Flew home in the KiwiB this time last year over 1500m.  The 2nd horse in that race Evaporate has won two Grp 3 races in OZ since.  2 months earlier she won the KM over 1600m.

Got the 6 bucks plus and nearly got the win. Who says barrier draws don’t matter

Yeah when it got to $6 I took it just as I said I would.  Just before I heard the commentators say that she had drifted because the pattern of racing today would suit her!  Top effort when you look at the run.  I can hear the knockers knocking but she will win a decent race.

If I was an owner of the horse I'd be happy.  The residual value keeps getting better.

Ran home ok, better than last few starts, but still not winning with a good ride. As i mentioned, Philia was the one in that race, gap a bit earlier and Rose would have got windburn. No worries, will get my money back on it, but cant see Rose getting a weaker field for awhile.

Ran home in 33.1 for the 600m.  Two sub 11 sectionals.

Damask Rose ran the last 600m quicker than the Grp 1 All Star Mile.  They ran home in 1.7 seconds slower and none of them broke 11 seconds.

Check the sectionals and revise your opinion.

Knockers unlikely to ever have one half as good. Good on you for having a bet. The excitement of the finish with some money on was worth it.

Soft track and better barrier would have won but wouldn’t pay as much. Philia a good horse as well and I think you’re right will win more

Here we go…. Last 600m sectionals come out and comparing times? Maybe can you tell the horse to run home quicker… then it will win races😁

You're irrelevant @Huey and anyone sane who reads your posts knows you have a chip on both shoulders.  Get over whatever it was in racing that pissed you off it is destroying your enjoyment of your twilight years.

I gather it was you that started the fake news about Te Akau leaving Cranbourne.  

Lmao,  even a fool like me could tip a winner over you. 

You continue to look sillier and sillier by the day, bring out the book of excuses quickly!

@Huey I don't recall you ever posting any tips just boring negativity.  No one likes a grumpy old man sadly.  Why don't you line up for your nightly tot of rum and let the rest of us enjoy racing.?!

Once again a good horse beaten by the track.  Inside was the place to be all day today at Flemington.
