Here we go again.....Bash ITMQ time from you lot over there. The Vic Cup will be an outstanding field with any number of horses capable of winning.One thing is certain of the Vics they will not be bending over forward to appease ITMQ with a barrier draw like the WATA does with visiting horses ( not that the champ needs a good draw ). One thing is certain, if he stays sound he will surpass Blacks a Fake's stakes earnings. At least he makes an effort to go east unlike the rest over there when it comes to our Pacing Cup......Oh that's right you did come over for the Inters AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENDED.

cant wait for the vic cup its going to be one hella of a race when u have itmq and bitobliss can run sub 27's its not much between them, its come down to tactic's and the barrier draw of smoken up. Regarding to the itmq hunter cup 2010 he wasnt the only one in that race to have a easy run and did they make any ground like itmq did? no
Not a bad run from a horse with no heart or stamina last night. I want to see this bloke time trial with a sit at Menangle. That and sprint home a final 400 wow
The beaten up old has-been went OK at Melton last night too. Off the back line, 3 wide round the first bend making ground when they going 1.54 rate and eventually rolled to the front. And then last 1/2 in 55.4 (27.1 home) (1.55.8 MR). Just warming up for next week!!Originally Posted by aussiebreno
Hope they all draw to have their best chance next Saturday night.
No doubt a good run Brenno against the normal Perth FFA lot.
I want to see him do that in any race in the East.
Repeat his race last nite at Melton over same distance with Quin sitting outside Bliss Or Smoken, he wouldn't be winning.
And you know what, Hall wouldn't even dare choose to go to the death over here!
Last night he had Rakarebel taking ground off him at the finish and at 1:53.5 bliss or Smoken win no problem.
Moot point re sitting outside TRigger or Bitobliss, they couldn't do it either. Hall never let Quinny down so again a moot point that Rakarebel made ground. Winners keep winning, haters keep hating!
going to be a long week waiting, first stop Cranbourne tonight.
I just 'loved' watching Smoken last night, no stars to beat but he did it like he was just trying to prove a point (to me mainly) and that is not to write him off just yet. Gotta love 'boring old Smoken Up' as he has been tagged by one forum contributor some time ago.
Does anyone see Bitobliss getting rolled tonight because I have declared him, and if the $1.90 stands up I mightn't have to front up at work tomorrow.
Yes, and Smoken Up beat a very average Melton FFA lot, the same suspects that appear every week and you are also forgetting that 1:53:5 equates to a lot faster time at Melton. I'm afraid Smoken Up's time IS UP against the open class horses, just look what Excel Stride did to him a few months back over SU's pet distance. His earnings will only increase in dribs and drabs, Quinny is already well ahead of him.
Yep, that was me,must have struck an accord,everyone still remembers it.Maorisidol's favourite, but alas, not much Smoken Up to do with those old tyres - tread is wearing thin,maybe trade him in for a newer model - Bitobliss.
