What a run by Washakie last night in the Treuer, The speed was really on and the field were strung out like browns cows for most of the race. Full marks to John McCarthy for a great drive and being able to keep the old boy going to win his 5th Treuer in a row, a truly remarkable feat. 1.57.8 for the 2540m is pretty slick around Bankstown and the old boy certainly earned his stripes after sitting in the breeze for a fair part of the trip.
