Would need to draw in close from behind a mobile on the grass to have much chance though. Would think the grass fields at Methven would be pretty strong so tou would need to be very brave to support it as it aint that brave!

Interesting Brodie now all 48 starts are from the mobile, not a single standing start and going by HRNZ he's unruly from a stand.... must have really butchered the only 2 trials he had from a stand -other than yesterday. Going to be huge fields next Sunday, gunna even be hard for the Spitfire to get a start, you'd think with his form will be balloted out.

To be fair, unfortunately Averos Spitfire would need a helluva start for it to run a place at Methven on Sunday even though it has drawn the ace and should get a pretty good run! Yes it won a trial there last weekend, but it did beat anything of any account, and it led up and was the only one that was heavily under the whip!! Ran no time and was flat at the finish, Counter Punch can you really say it ran them into the ground? Lol Big step up from trials to raceday at Methven on a testing track! Look, I honestly hope that it goes a great race for the connections, but will it pay a dividend, Nah!

Brodie Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) To be fair, Brodie must clearly be on the money as usual! This posting has so far had 6,700 views which seems to be the most viewed topic for a long while! Everyone will be cheering the horse on so that it does run a place sometime, so that Brodie has egg on his face! Is there anyone out there that thinks it is going to happen? If so on what evidence, certainly not on its Trial win last Saturday at Methven? If it was raceday, Andrew Faulks Would have been done for excessive use of the whip!!!

Bruce Negus trained Play By Ear only runner that has run a place recently. It's had to pick the winner in this race. Coin toss?

Counter Punch Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 It's going to get its chance, should be on the back of For Today for the whole trip. Stranger things have happened - especially at Methven. It's a very poor field. For Today should win. Khal Drogo is better than a maiden and my bolter for the week, President Pat is in there as well. The one thing that maybe makes Spitfire appeal for a place is the trip it will get and the fact its harder for horses to pick up speed on the grass, it generally is that one speed. Being on or near to the speed is half the battle on the grass these days, unless you have that real lightning turn of foot on the green top. Sister's Delight later in the day has the real high speed on grass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also hoping Foreigner gets a start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sister's Delight later in the day has the real high speed on grass. You are probably right CP, it may well trail For Today! However, its race record Is diabolical and surely does not warrant being in work? Yes it is not a strong maiden field, but It is also not a strong horse. Yes it won at the trials last Saturday on the Methven track but the time it ran for the last 400m and being under sufferance from that point hardly gives me encouragement that it can go any quicker on Sunday, and it will need to by quite a lot! You have to realise that the driver wouldve been done for excessive use of the whip, had it been raceday, and it was onLy trials! There are others in the field that are just far better horses. From the draw if it trails and they dont go too quick in front, it could run 5th probably at best. Hopefully it does run a place, as it would put my statement that it wont run a dividend bearing placing at rest, however just can not see it! Go the mighty Spitfire!!!

Would not think so Mr Tard! On what basis do you think it can run its first dividend bearing placing, the fact that it has drawn 1? The horse may have won at the Methven trials but it was not impressive, went a slow last quarter and was driven harder than any other horse on the day, to win a trial? The odds the Bookies are offering at $7 and $2.30 is just blatant massive unders, for a horse that has never run a place in 48 starts!!!!!!!

Happy Sunrise Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Jeremy Wells at 11ff, The West Wing at 21 and Ticking Over at 11 are better bets than Spitfire at 7. While the trail is a great spot to be it will still be behind a supposed 2.50 shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still have to have the ability and it will be reasonably hard going on the Methven track tomorrow! It was full out last Saturday and on the time it ran last Saturday it would finish 200 metres behind on what it will need to do tomorrow to win.
