    vicCARTHY DERBY

    WOWEE. I've only been following the trots for some 10 years but this has to be unprecedented for a blue-riband event. I think they are going to have the favourite for all 3 heats this Sat night with the first 2 starting pretty short in the red. Congrats to them & I wish Luke all the best choosing his drive for the final.

    I think Gai Waterhouse trifected theGolden Slipper one year, I wonder if anybodies ever trifected a Gp 1 in the harness? Those lady trainers eh!

    Horses trained by the same trainer are split if possible - eg. McCarthy, Purdon, Manning . other than that, it is RBD

    Don't underestimate the 1 horse in the third heat. In at Hamilton tomorrow see how he goes there.

    He was very impressive Terry. 3W to the death rating 54.8 and easing away on the wire. The 2.65 a place looks a great bet as does a slice of the $16. He can lead out, not a great deal of speed 2-6, perhaps trail the 7 or the 10, whoever comes calling first.

    Good Luck mate !

    He needed some hard racing to tune him up for the Derby heat tonight. Wednesday would have been his fast work day anyway and he was back home in his box within half an hour of the race (and being massaged !) His heart rate after the race was lower than after normal fast work. Very pleased with his run and 1.54.8 mile rate.

    Just a great thrill to have him in a heat of the Vic Derby and Punter in the Hunter Cup. Never thought I would ever own and breed horses good enough to compete at this level !

    Hi Terry

    It would be a huge thrill for anyone to have horses in either a Derby heat or the Hunter Cup but your one of the lucky one's to have one in both, looks like an exciting night for you ahead and I wish you all the best.

    Hi Terry, Good luck tonight. You have achieved what we all strive for and both of your horses are in it up to their eyeballs in both races tonight.
