What I found bizarre was Chris Barsby didn't go on to say QLD would still trifecta the Vic Derby! He has maroon blood that bloke!
Unexpected or surprising? Yes.
Bizarre? No. If there was no rationale for the decision it would be bizarre but the reasoning is completely understandable.
I'm sure the folks at HRV would have a few different adjectives for the decision...

Some advice to C.B. : instead of just about falling out of the commentary box in anticipation of informing us with some dazzling sectionals and mile rates at A.P. I suggest holding back until you have something worth reporting.
I like Chris but he needs to get himself a hat. That QLD sun is getting to him.
I think Chris is pretty spot on, on times you could only have an argument for Mindarie Priddy. It's always hard for Queenslanders to stand up and be counted when southerners think the sun shines out of their ......

Sorry didn't mean anyone take offence to what said. Wish sun would shine out me arse... been very cold, wet winter down here. Wasn't having go at Queenslanders...just silly comments is all. If I owned NSW 2yo filly going for the Crown Sunday on the BIG STAGE I might be offended....
