    Hall states .......With the Inter Dominion on again in Perth at the end of the year, the money in the east just isn’t good enough to travel with a horse of his quality.


    I understand that but on 28th Jan the Vic Cup is $400 thou, the 4th Feb Hunter Cup is $500 thou & on the 25th Feb the MM is $750 thou.........that adds up to very good money.

    That seems a silly statement. If you take out the Inter we could have all the rest of Australia saying the WA money is not good enough to travel for
    What I think he should have said is 'that the money in the West is good enough for them not to need to travel'
    I like that he is looking after the horse as it is still a 4yo for another 7½ mths

    You can turn that around the other way and ask why none of the eastern staters went west for the Fremantle and WA Cups? After all there was a combined $750k prize money up for grabs.
