1.52.5 certainly was a track record to Global View and has already been updated

I was at work when he ran so could only listen to it. In the call he said that they'd gone 27.1 in the first and then at the end called a mile rate of 1:59 which was disappointing. My brother rang me later and told what time they'd run, I was blown away.

That was his 5th run at Goulburn for a couple of 2nds, a couple of 4ths and then yesterday. Taking in to account how far he was beaten, I reckon he's rated about a second and a half quicker than he's run there before. It was his second run back from about a 4 and a half month break so we're hoping with a bit of racing fitness he can have a good season again.

Glenferrie EJ broke the Bendigo 2150m Record tonight when she rated 1.55.7 to take .1 off the old mark held by Larado since 2007 - even showed up as NTR in Stewards column (not seen that before)
Safari holds the 2650m with the same rate which was also set in 2007

Catch Your Breath has just taken .8 off the 2180m Rec in the Claimers at Kilmore rating 1.56.5

He obviously likes the track, he holds the 1690m record there too.

He is fantastic to watch early on the season when he gets it all his own way. I get suckered in every season, but please oh please can he replicate those performances season long against the big boys.

I think just 4 starts per campaign may be his go

I'm with you Breno, BOB's an excitement machine when he's right and it's great to see him back and firing. Kev has probably hit the nail on the head , Try and keep him fresh.

Guaranteed's 2.00.3 in the Cup, the third Track Record for the day!
