    I had absolutely no doubt the winner was a true champion before the race. Anybody who doubted his greatness will quickly be reassessing their thoughts.

    Pure Steel, Popular Alm, Gammalite, Preux Chevalier, Village Kid, Westburn Grant, I'm Themightyquinn - all champions. And all of them would be in awe of Lazarus tonight. And his trainer / driver is something else as well.

    The great thing for Australian racing is Laz will be staying here for all of the big races. No doubt some will be grizzling about him stealing the prizemoney but he is a promoter's dream and will be a great boost for the sport. Might even get some (unpaid) editorial space in the daily papers?

    Mark Purdon is quietly playing them all off a break, he hasn't asked any more of Lazarus than absolutely necessary so far and will have the horse 110% on final night. Only bad luck will beat him in the final and i haven't seen him in the heats.




    Pat, Wayne, how are you travelling Gents? as predicted Purdon played them all off a break, right down to taking the horses head check off as a last minute gear change, best horse in the race by a long way all he needed to do was ensure the horse was 110% right on final night, but I thought the gear change was a classic piece of gamesmanship. Thoughts?

    I dont think any horse disgraced themselves either, there was only 16m between 1st and last. A good effort over that distance.

    True, but it was slow in the first half of the race. From there on, most of them got sucked along in Lazarus's slipstream. Only one horse was ever going to win. Plenty of huffing and puffing in the media from the Chicago Bull camp but, after having the run of the race, he was left wanting when Purdon looked over his right shoulder. The connections of Vultan Tin would be stoked with his 4th.

    All good Danno, when he drew two it was all about the exotics


    The gear change, gamesmanship or horsemanship?
