What a great night's racing coming up.
Cracking fields, and there should be no leader bias with the sprint lane in action....Not sure that some of the drivers knew what to do at Ballarat with no sprint lane last Saturday nght.

Yes Noel, I saw one race where I am sure the driver's natural instinct was telling him to drop in behind the leader but then he realized he was at Ballarat

How about Lochinvar Art paying $15.70 on the Vic TAB in the Bonanza
The fave was sure to get beat after the trackside man (Bonnington?) said he was the best horse he had ever seen :eek:

How good a race was the Casey Classic
Although I don't know why John Caldow thought he must go to the lead at the bell instead of posting The Fixer 3wide

He said in the interview just before they rolled, that he did not think he could cross Line Up

It has been a Sensational nights racing

Only way to win was to find out and he might have been pleasantly surprised.
