3 Menangle heats run & won. I am surprised at the starting prices of M & B Purdons horses.
Sicario only qualified two weeks ago, won his first start at Invercargill 9 days ago and runs a 26.6 last quarter after sitting parked today. Untouched. I guess the wide draw and lack of experience scared off a few though he was mightily impressive his fist start. Don't think punters will get any luxury prices about him next time. $120,000 yearling, looks like a short payback period!
Yep Trev, I could only marvel at how STRONG he looked.
Colt Thirty One won the Qld heat. 50 colts/geldings competed in 7 heats , 3 at Melton, 3 at Menangle & 1 at AP.
30 Fillíes go around at Melton Thursday night in 4 heats.

Colt Thirty One Claims APG Heat
16 fillies go around at Menangle Tuesday in 2 heats. 8 fillies go around at AP also on Tuesday.
Good luck.
Don't know about his STRENGTH but he surely did get a wriggle-on at the top of the straight once his ear plugs where pulled.
I think the point that should be remembered here is the paucity of 2 year-old racing in NZ this season. Their race scheduling is, well, ridiculous. And, I believe, it is a little too easy to get carried away with the form of our more experienced youngsters in Australia. Basically, the All Stars 2 year-olds are high priced yearlings that have been starved of racing opportunities. Interesting that the horse that won the same 2yo at Invercargill last season that Sicario did a fortnight ago was also bound for Menangle and the APG heats. Unfortunately, that horse pulled up sore and sat out the rest of the year.
You can only wonder what a mess Vincent would have made of the opposition had he not gone amiss!

Molander, Stewart dominate Melton APG Fillies heats
I'll be following two of the second placed fillies. IM MONICA and MAJOR GAIT http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-re...X130417&ms=vic
Just like Geoff Simpson at Bathurst, would be a fantastic result for many reasons if IM MONICA got the gold. Go Eddie Tappe!!!
