He's baaaack!

Ironically the horse who I have no doubt altered Cockburns thinking last week.
SSL COTFF sits in death at Menangle. Next start no COT but is restrained. Had Cockburn known this maybe he keeps death.

Tipping they go forward with SSL this week and he gets an easy lead. As Brent says 55 last half and it's touch and go alright, I reckon SSL wins the trial this week.

No cot and he goes forward and wins as expected!

Maybe hitch a ride with some Victorian drivers. Some seem to get down the highways in quick time from meeting to meeting!

Wow wow wow wow wow.

They went the last mile in 1.53.7. So how quick was Quinny? Sub 1.53 I reckon. Un-be-liveable!

You better sit down Aussiebrenno and Mighty Atom and other Quinn fans,
cos tonite, that was bloody good!
However i do feel quite a bit vindicated by none other than G Hall Jnr and G Hall. in an interview after the race on Sky, they both said that Quinn had toughened up and "if in a fight, you wouldn't normally wanna be on him" or words to that effect, however now he has seemed to have gained that toughness while, according to Jnr actually lost a little and i say a little of that crazy explosive sprint when first pulled out and asked to go.
Great win!

Cheers Ash. I reckon because getting older losing bit of zip they training him different to toughen him up more eg the race at Pinjarra was a calculated move to drive him tougher.

What about the run from Condagen?? That horse is just going from strength to strength, I know he had a cheap run 4 the fence, but geez he got home super!!! and he is MUCH more loosely assessed than the horses around him in tonights race, I'll bet Denis Picker and connections are absolutely stoked with his performance, I've always liked the the horse despite his sire, who throws a few of ill gaited horses, but by gee I thought his run tonight was sensational.

It may appear he has lost a little of his sprint but when Mach Beauty is running 55:7 last half and a sectional in 26:8 and ITMQ has taken off from a little worse than midfield it's going to take a little of the sprint edge off him and that probably was the Panella/Tritton plan. Did you notice Devil Dodger tag onto Quinny's cart to get a cart up he just got left behind. As has been said before it's hard to compare different horses from different eras but not in this case I'm Themightyquinn is the greatest pacer of all time. Chris Barsby summed Quinny up perfectly "A Champion, A Legend"-exactly.
