13yo Really Under Fire made it two in a row for the year at Charlton today
Jason Grimson might be interested but then again he prefers them out of form

ps Shortest winner today $2.30 and the average was about $11 and that was not due to one biggie (longest price was $34)
This is from a week ago but in case you missed it
Bondi Lockdown is returning from his 3mth bleeding ban and has trialed at Menangle

Good luck to them but, in reality, he is only a tough run away from a one-way trip to the USA and lasix for the rest of his career. I see Lochinvar Art trialled last week so he would be in good company.Quote:

Ah lasix - the fear of not being able to use it, the reason why Americans are fighting against HISA (Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority)
Have a listen to the finish of R3 at Cranbourne last night
You might be able to hear how excited the stable get when they have a winner - good stuff

Me thinks there was no racing in Vic today because there was originally supposed to be a function on this day - cost cutting?
A late start at Warragul today (1.53) - maybe they didn't want to clash with the Superbowl ;)
When I saw that there was another dead heat at Charlton yesterday, I went straight to the replay to see if Luke may have called it (he called the one at Mildura the previous night)
He went for the one on the outside, when you look at this enlargement of the photo (that we can see in the results) you wonder whether he might not have been right

Nothing for metro pacers at Melton on Saturday night but we do have 3 Metro paces for $20k at Ballarat on Friday night

Looking at the breeding of 3yo first starter Gawn, I noticed he is a ¾ bro to Petillante
What I found just as interesting (and had not noticed before) was the fact that Petillante was raced solely by Clayton Tonkin as a 3yo last season
She was a good 2yo too so why would the other owners relinquish their shares - maybe Clayton made them a great offer
