Been trained for it, James didnt want him to run the 1:50 miles a month or 2 ago like SSL waa he wants him to do it this weekend I think if he has too he will break 1:48

My 2 cents worth, watch the horse that will be sitting on Beautides back and get a lovely suck along and have the last shot. Christen Me
not many of you chaps rating AVONNOVA a chance hey?..from that draw I reakon he is a big chance..who ever beats him will have earned it thats for sure
Breaking the record will be extremely hard to do, and breaking 1.48 will be even more difficult. More than a few very genuine winning chances in this race.. Still leaning towards Gauranteed & Christen Me, and if Nova somehow crossed to the front, Beautide's chances will take a big dive. Will be a cracker!

Just a reminder of what Stuey is capable of ..http://www.harnessmediacentre.com.au/trotstv/replays/14519 … #27 28 26 27 in the death seat ... JUST SAYING
Lead times, I know different tracks.
Newcastle Mile AVON 27.1 from the 9 gate
Menangle CC sprint EOTE 26.4 from the 1 gate
Menangle C sprint BBB handed up to SSL in 26.8 from the 8 gate.
Stuey will hope for a good tow in te race. He can't cross this lot, and if he somehow does get outside the leader, he would have run his race in this elite field.. Would have been a different kettle of fish if he drew a good barrier..
He does look an outstanding e/w bet. I've absolutely zero clue on how they will settle down (Avon the undeniable key IMO) but I keep thinking back to the Vic cup when CM went straight past Beau.
Look for Guaranteed to sprout wings late driven stone cold. He'll be my bet....to place.
I just can't see Stuey leading this field Brent, and even if he did end up outside the leader, or in front, he's a sitting shot. I see where you're coming from, as he's best up front.
I agree that Nova is the key here. What does Shane Graham do? Most people are saying that there won't be no mid race moves.. I dont agree. Out of curiosity, if Beautide held the lead, could he run the sub 1.50 time and win? Btw, it's possible that I could be 100% wrong like I have been before lmfao :p
