    Cash N Flow now a 9yo is going around in the whacky Mercury 80 (they can't go 80 = 26, 27, 27)
    As a 7yo he did the unthinkable in winning 12 miles in a row at Menangle in the following times

    For the whacky Mercury 80, I notice a horse's Performance Record no longer shows a Mile Rate - Good move as they didn't race a mile
    But this needs to be cleaned up retrospectively too as when looking at Franco Jolto's Performance Record (he's in R3) you will see he is credited with going 1.47.8 (from last year's M80)

    1.47.5. In the Chariots. Hope the top 2 score invites to Mile if thats allowed because Bondi Lockdown was huge and deserved to win

    Better Eclipse gets $136,250
    Bondi Lockdwon get $42,500

    Life isn't fair but drivers like Greg Sugars (like Gavin Lang) periodically do this to tough luckless opponents - how often it is the 3 fence posn

    Fantastic race - some time set up by Bettor Call Me's Q1
    Better Eclipse has been racing for 7mths. He took 5 secs off his best MR but that was over 2300m

    The first 9 in the race all went faster than they ever have before
    Yes, even 9th Titian Raider who galloped and went to the tail of the main field and was beaten 31m would have broken 1.50
    Bondi Lockdown is clearly a super horse but it is also amazing that Krug and Bettor Call Me broke 1.49

    It is funny that what made this a great race was a driver making a big error in judgement/pacing

    Here is hoping for a small speed explosion at Birchip on Sunday
    If a horse can break 2 minutes - they will be creating history

    The 1750m Tk Rec is 2.00.0
    The 2150m Tk Rec is 2.00.2

    Is It Wrong To Be Excited - NO, as Isitwrongtobexcited wins R1 at Birchip and becomes the first horse to break 2mins there
