Well the commentator said different even so they were running at the tape the first time round.  In my day you had to be standing still!

I'm not having a dig at the All Stars - the professionals they are they know how to manage things to their own advantage.  

[Chief Stipe]

Three out of four of the Group 1's.

An AS trifecta dare I say it. Wash my mouth out with soap and water. 

Washed it out and ran to the bank. lol. Bit short but I will take it.

Well as a collective group, we got it. With some individuals nailing it. My fun bet I opted for a % boxed trifecta, only made a small amount however. Even with having a small collect on the race, feel somewhat disheartened by the result. In saying that the owners of the top 3 all deserve everything they put in. It is what it is.

Watch the replay.  Self Assured hit the tape in the first go and turned first.  Deliberate go at the tape?

Yep - full credit to Mark Purdon he controlled that start from the get go.  Geez if it was the 100m Olympic final he'd be on a warning and the second time he would have been disqualified!

Looked up to see what went wrong and why Allstars have missed one. 

Seems in the trot FFA the current Interdominion Champion now trained not by Mark/Nat even though Mark drove it. Must have unsoundness issues maybe? Specialist trainer?

So All stars were Three out of Three G1's technically Chief . Not a bad day at the Office.

Enhance your Calm now in Aus and first start last weekend in Vic, was 5-1 ON, and ran 2nd.

That's right, he did, because the inside horses were made to stand, the outside horses thought they were in a mobile

Have to agree there. The outside horses were all moving forward while those inside were static. Didn't do Copy That any favours, although I don't think he would have beaten the spinning trio anyway.

Self Assured at good enough odds for me to unload.

Unfortunately and i hope I'm wrong  but I'm thinking Lamb may a bigger part in the races outcome than the respective horses ability.

Oh how right you were

Outstanding from Allstars.Bad draws but too good on the day

Bad draws?

The way the start was effected Copy That had the worst draw

But you keep dreaming, so far you are the only person in NZ that thinks it was a first start

You go Richie, you are unique
