Not sure they will be smiling after the race though Wayne. I'm as big a fan as u can get re Lenny, but 1st up over the longer trip vs what looks an equine freak who is near his top looks a little beyond reach imo.

Not sure what you'll all make of it, but spoke to Chris Shinn (Steamwashed) yesterday and he said she's got a "huge chance" in the race. She's $51! I'll be sending out our HRV digital email preview of the race later today and will include his comments. I found it interesting; he was very chipper. She's in great form, the mare.

Great to hear Chris was very "chipper" Cody 'laughs' and she has scooted around the Shepp track before. Will be a fascinating race to see and bet on. Speedmaps will be very interesting (have to take it they all go away from the stand?) Lenny has been driven with a sit at the trials, Steam Washed looking for the same. Breno, speed map please.

Love it when a driver is full of confidence ahead of a big race. Need more of it. Rare that they're such long odds, but could be a genius if he snares this correct and she runs a drum. Just checked and you're spot on -- two from two at Shep! :cool:

there is $13 the place out there for people who like to shop but if u r betting to win u will get triple figures on the exchange come race time. I can't see it myself (reckon Shepp is way stronger than SA) but it sure could make for a rawkus Oz day. GL

Another sssshhhh 'laughs' was referring to her trial form at Shepp over recent times. I think Blake may have spotted her, her trial times with Nadia a while back.
