    Clock at GP must have been on rollerskates last night. Our horse went 1.52.6. Cut For An Ace went 1.51.6 (.2 outside Chicago Bulls record) and a 1.53.8 for Abraxas Blues. These were all M0-M3! Errors pretty sure

    They would have had the track in tip top condition for the big night Katie and you wouldn't think they could have all those times wrong BUT I can see your point - Cut For An Ace is a 10yo improving his best MR by 2.5 secs

    Edit: I have since found that he was only beaten 9.5m when they went 1.52.5 so maybe it was only a 1.5 sec personal best for Cut For An Ace - still amazing for a 10yo

    Slowish time. Drew 1. Didn't do a lick of work. I wouldn't say it was impressive. Lady De La Renta went better

    Thing is there's a biiiiig difference between ability of Bull vs Ace. 1.51.6 is insanely fast on GP. Only the best can do it

    Although although although small 8 horse field helps

    I'd have him but yep, was expecting him to scoot to the line a bit better. Your bloke's heading to NSW Katie?

    Bechers is definitely nice looking

    Yeh Jack Mac's in for Pinjarra Monday first up. Probably still a bit fat I'd say but if all goes well in the next couple weeks and he comes back as good as he was as a baby I think dad will take him over. Might take Culpeka from nz too...
