On initial viewing I thought shade disappointing too but they have gone 1.53. RNR Who beat Curly James by 1.3m when RNR had a 4m headstart at top of the lane and got to race along the fence in the Maryborough Cup. Catch a Wave started behind Curly at top of the lane and covered the extra ground in running line.
Some idiot backed Curly James place only so definitely didnt see Wave getting beat before the race.
