    Gold Coast Cup 2014

    Great to see based on the barrier draw, we should have a very competitive race here.
    Avonnova Barrier 2
    For A Reason 3
    Abettorpunt 4
    Majestic Major with work to do barrier 13!

    Does look good Ash. There's two ways I see the race panning out.
    A. (on form, this should really eventuate) Avonnova straight to the front, Abettorpunt in the chair with FAR stalking 1x1. A slight chance that last weeks winner makes an early move but I just can't see it. Leader wins for me in this scenario but $2.20 currently is just that margin too short.
    B. Team driving by the Macs keeping the lead, leaving Avonnova in the chair, Abettorpunt out in the cold and FAR with the gun trail & probable victory.

    The pole horse was very ordinary last start. The draw gives it an outside place if the speed is moderate otherwise it'll be outclassed.

    $2.20 is short but he looks the winner.

    Great win
    Track record. Too fast too good. As Kevin Seymour said in the presentation, what could he do at Menangle???
    Good effort Abettorpunt in fast time
    Better effort from For a Reason who came from a few lengths behind ABP about 4 wide. Luke said before the race he would need tonites run and b better next week!
    Now what's happening with the grandstand situation at Albion Park?
    The winning post has gotta b 50m to the right!
    Felt like I was back at Moonee Valley!

    Super win by Avonnova! The 54.4 last half was huge and gave nothing a chance to catch him. Good runs from both punter and For a reason.

    I know he hasn't raced there for a year but Kevin Seymour must have a short memory. Avonnova has run at Menangle 46 times in his career. By my reckoning, that's over 40% of his lifetime starts.


    My horse ran the race after Avonnova was claimed at Goulburn and sent up to QLD.

    Yep a year ago he could not break 1.53 at Menangle but has gone 1.52.5 at Albion and on last night's run could lower that a little but he is never going to find the 2.2 secs he needs to break Quinny's record

    He was only beaten 8.4m after death-seating in that Quinny time Kev so that would be his fastest time albeit not a winning time.

    Oops missed that one LOL
    In that case he can definitely give Quinny's record a nudge
