    The Old Warriors Back On The Comeback Trail

    Thought there might have been a bit of discussion about the return of Botobliss and Smoken Up from last Friday night. These two great horses doing what they do best, the old marvel SU doing it only how he knows how to and BOB just unleashing, great race. Wonder if BOB will go on with it this time round? Pretty sure Trigger won't disappoint. Love the old horses.

    Bitobliss' last 200 metres was Mind Blowing, Would love to know his fractions for the last quarter. Smoken Up has returned in fine fettle as well and still a Tough Nut.

    I think the run of Bit of Bliss was gob smackingly sensational.... I am a big fan of BOB and his trainer/driver Scott Stewart , and the message they send to all others......you don't have to carve your horse up to beat the "tough Guys:", just do it a litlle smarter!

    A long, long time ago
    It seemed to me that Scott knew how the race would pan out up front and decided in the interests of his horse that he would sit back and have last crack and if it is meant to be he will get up. It is fairly risky to also support this tactic with your hard-earned unless you know your horse is lengths better than the opposition. It would be interesting to know if BOB's short favouritism included any stable money- that would be scary.

    Great race and an awersome season ahead for both.

    I would love to see Bitobliss have a crack at the NZ Cup this year if he could unleash that sprint he would be in with a big chance and I'd love to see Smoken Up have a crack at a third Miracle Mile.

    I think we are in for a cracker of a Grand Circuit. Quinny,Smoken, Bitobliss, Christen Me, Terror to love, Smolda, Carribean Blaster, Excel Stride just to name a few.
