    Yes, snuck under the guard. Run oneover seems to overrace a lot and lets the other horses in with a chance. Heez on fire didn't fire a shot either.

    Chicago Bull also went pretty quick for the 2100. 1.53 is becoming pretty common place at GP these days. next up is 1.52. couldn't have imagined that 10 years ago when 1.58 was impressive

    I should mention our little guy Jack Mac broke the Pearl record by a couple secs last night too.

    Katie, they are certainly flying. I suppose one good thing for those who haven't got a fast horse is that you can sneak in a win in a 2130m race in 1:58 at GP mainly a C1-C4 or MO but once you get past that then the times goes into mid 1:50's. The 2 y/o girls ran good time last week too. We used to be happy if one of our horses ran 1:59 but those days are virtually over. This speed explosion seems to have really picked up in the last 12 months and track records don't last long if you have a real good one in your stable.

    A little belated but a brilliant time 1:54.8 for 2536 mtrs by Tricky Styx at GP just outside the 1:54.7 track record of I'm Themightyquinn. You know you're in for a fast time when Run Oneover leads up the field.

    As new caller Luke Humphrey expressed so well after they crossed the line, the 2yo Restricted at Melton rated 1.55.2

    Race 3 was only a C1 at Melton tonight but it was a $10k final and a couple of 3yo's put on a show
    with Tintin In America filly Shartin going to the death and proving marginally too strong of for the colt Jilliby Kung Fu who was $1.20 favourite
    They rated 1.52.5 and came home in 55.1
    In her first season of racing she has now won 5/7 (Jilliby Kung Fu has won 9/18)

    Shartin?!?! do... do they know what a shart is... ?

    Our trotter broke some trotting record at GP last night. Nothing outrageously fast compared to other states and pacers but we'll take it: 2.00.7 for a 2536m mobile . She does good, our Sunny
