Did Skyvalley and Let Me Thru ever meet? Skyvalley was slightly disappointing in his final Inter campaign shortly before his retirement, was he 100% sound at the time or were his legs already causing issues?

Terrific race all round, I thought everything fell into place perfectly for Let Me Thru, great drive and I still think the established champ is the better horses at this stage looking towards the Inters.

Nice to see the old boy Acacia Ridge run his best race for some time, and Down Unders Muscles, well he has a dazzling turn of foot but when his sprint has ended it really does end quickly.

I still rate the Kiwi I Can Doosit a big chance back on his home soil...what about the rest of the Kiwis? Any thoughts?

Cheers
