That was an odd drive on Chinese Whisper.  I thought the driver would have tracked up earlier when they were in single file.

He must off watched d fergersons  drive on dellsun.dam I only made 40% instead of 690%.

I thought the drive was ok. The horse just wasn't up to it. When it loomed and Evans waxed lyrical about it winning it hit a brick wall. Humble Ladd was coming 3 to its 1 at the end.

Perhaps so but the driver didn't know that until 80m out.  As I said why didn't he put the horse in the race earlier?  Had to go real wide round the turn and put in a rough stride doing it.

Well don't hold your breath waiting for Miss You to take on Shartin in the breeders crown final next week.

Shartin drew 6 . What did Miss You draw?l

As for the casie Coleman horse it was just outclassed by the best pacer going around up there!

Now this is a prime example of how the TAB make a killing.....so tempting for a punter to have a large place or multi bets with this horse anchored but not every horse can back up racing after 3 days and a 400km road trip.

 

Really liked the run of "Fast Whispering" 

I think it was more a case of the horse not handling the track. The track surface looked very loose, dusty (don't they have a water cart at 4bury?). She trotted roughly the whole way, skilful drive from Gerard showing his class who had to hold her in check throughout. He kept her trotting to the line, many other drivers wouldn't have achieved that.

Today at Forbury there were two water trucks going round after each race.Was stinkin hot day,good crowd,,and nothing

much wrong with track when maidens running 2.41 and fast times all day.Only downside trying to get bets on with lengthy

queues at all the terminals . I hope the Suits were there having a look .Forbury certainly has it's place

$10 000 on Chinese Whisper....Brodster, is that you?

Certainly not Happy!

Thought when I heard It that it was not a great bet @ $1.50 and u can see why the TAB let some punters on for big amounts!

It was not a cert and to risk 10k to make $5k?

Yeah Na!

I'm not the one claiming Yesterday that Miss You was winning the BC elimination.  Funny how she isn't in the final!!
