I've learnt enough to know that everything and anything is beatable lol. It will be a very interesting race, and can't wait for the barrier draw! My tips from now are, Christen Me and Gauranteed(if he's in).

No, that would not have been the booking of the MM winning campQuote:

They should only go with 7 starters next week IMO. Going on the clubs criteria, Mark Dennis should be next in.
SSL just hung on.. He was all out! BBB would have had him in another few lengths, and has MD improved or what! Poor ABOP.. BIO ran a good race, considering it was his first go against some of the big boys. He'll be good to watch next season and further.
What state is the track in, as time was average for that class. SSL would have to really improve on that run to be any sort of chance..
Avonova
Beautide
Christen Me
For A Reason
Guaranteed
Suave Stuey Lombo
Terror To Love
Easy On The Eye
Bettor Bet Black 1EM
Chariot King 2EM
Should have gone with 7 and no emergencies - Franco Nelson most unlucky not to be in that field
Franco Nelson=shafted
TAB Fixed Odds Pre Draw
Beautide $1.90
Christen Me $5
Guaranteed $6
For A Reason $7.50
Suave Stuey Lombo $9
Terror To Love $14
Avonnova $16
Easy on the Eye $21
Surely Beautide should not be that short? There's nothing to me that says he's better than he was 6-12 months ago. Reverse runs last year and Christen Me just about beats him. Pre draw $1.90 is crazy. Vic Cup we seen FAR beats him with easier run. SSL $9 is crazy odds, he has beaten Beautide multiple times lately. Avonnova $16 after breaking Albion Park and Newcastle track records lately is crazy.
Well I'll be buggered.....they want horses to compete in the lead up races and here we have a horse who finished 3rd in BOTH races and he isn't even an emergency. IMBECILES, the lot of them!!
4th last week. But yes, how Chariot King is in a head of him boggles the mind.Quote:

Will Terror still come????
Beautide $1.75 fav.. Way to short! Not a good thing by any means. Gauranteed is a very big danger, along with Christen Me. Can Nova do it? Tritton says EOTE will lead and not hand up.. If that's the truth, things can get very interesting... TTL is cursed with the worst draws... Might as well not bother coming...
If Easy on the Eye does lead it will just make the pace hotter and make it harder for Suave Stuey Lombo coming across. Stuey could go back but then you need a COT.
I don't think Easy on the Eye will lead.
It sounds silly but geez I reckon Avonnova has drawn poorly in 2......he can't cross the pole marker, if he death seats Beau will run straight past him (+others IMO), and if he ducks to the pegs behind the early leader Stuey will probably run to the front shuffling him 3 pegs. Worst 2 draw I've ever seen.
I was thinking te same thing as you Brent.. He has to try take on EOTE, otherwise he won't be near them at the finish.. I'm confident Gauranteed/Christen Me will run a massive race.. Beautide obviously is a big chance, but silly odds!
How it all started - found this classic Brian Howard footage last week
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cagm9vUWTis&feature=youtu.be
Beautide, Beautide,Beautide, read about it in the papers.....he has just started to peak at exactly the right time and has a gem of a draw, only very bad luck will beat him.
Yes yes yes has been set for this race and has done everything asked of him so far by trainer and has a proven big race driver. There is no substitute for a driver who can produce the right drive in big races.Quote:

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!
From Shane Tritton's twitter
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.Quote:

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
