On a more upbeat note, Race 1 @ Hamilton

[Triple V]

(Our) Missionary Man, a 2yo Jereme's Jet gelding from a Sands A Flyin half sister to Lanercost...absolutely bolted in at Hamilton, must have won by 20m, Puppet in the bike for Emma Stewart. Green as grass but very smart.

[Greg Hando]

That is his 6th winner out here in Aus with 3 being bred in NZ and 3 bred out here in Aus

[Danno]

3 winners from 65 Aus foals...hardly earth shattering at this stage of the season.

when you check out the mares he got for this first crop, geez there's a big percentage that can throw 2yo winners too!

[Triple V]

Yeh, to date he's been a bit disappointing on the whole. I expected a fair bit more of him both here and in the US/CAN. So far, not all that much. Just another twist in the story. He was a very good juvenile himself. You'd think he'd be front and centre juveniles wise.
