I heard he is injured and wont be competing in the APG colts series.

If true, thats a real shame for connections.

Aynbody heard what the story is?

Speaking of Kiwi trained blow-ins...Russley Rascal received a nice old 25.5 opening quarter welcome to Sydney on Friday night at Menangle. Nobody's going to be wearing the elbow length white gloves and waving you through to the front like a Fijian Traffic Cop over here Mark. :p

Hi Mightymo

he certainly is.

[buster]

mightymo - yes

What a pain in the arse for his connections. He looked unbeatable in the 2yo c & g division.

Does anyone know how bad he is injured and how long he will be out for.

Hard to beat definitely, but Fly Like an Eagle and Soho Valencia are both very, very smart as well

Soho Valencia wouldn't know which way Restrepo went.

Hi everyone, been reading these forums for a while finally decided to join and post.

I think the Sydney horses will be quite interesting to follow. Grand Stride is probably the pick on current form along with Medal of Honour. I think Type Thing has plenty of upside and Gamechanger was awesome on debut (he also beat Grand Stride easily), then a big question mark on him after the Sapling.

Whether any of them are in the same league as Fly Like an Eagle is unlikely. Restrepo looked to be the Aust benchmark, shame he is out.

Friday night should hopefully tell us a lot more.
