Interdominion 2015

Herc would have more of a chance being competitive back at Gloucester Park. I reckon Beautide won't go as well over there. Thoughts?

Lenny not conditioned yet as he is only 5?
Flaming Flutter is 5...he was pretty well conditioned! as i expected the 3km was too much for Lenny.
Beau, amazing!
What was Morgan Woodley thinking going up to challenge Jimmy Rattray for the death? Didnt he see last years ID Final? Did he forget he wasnt at Gloucester Park and think he would just walk into the spot outside the leader or who knows maybe he thought he'd get to the lead? No chance either way, like i said somewhere else, he should've stayed at home...

There is more to it than just age Ash - I brought up Adore Me as a better example than your FF in my original post so you really are missing the point but if you want to go with FF you might notice he has had the equivalent of a whole seasons more racing than Lenny (14 starts) but they are all individuals that develop at different rates

Rattray said in post race interview that if Herc had persisted then he would have taken on TTL so maybe he could have got the death

His biggest problem was that he didn't run the gate. He left it half arsed. If he runs the gate, at the very least, he settles OTL. Big effort to finish 10th, which sounds ridiculous, but he was entitled to finish a clear last.

The winner was amazing but one has question the depth. It wasn't a stellar ID final.

After that performance, my intrigue has turned to total bewilderment.

This may clarify it a little...

It was pretty much a bird in the hand story

How long until they ask Cockburn to drive Avonnova again?

Looking at the replay a few times over, geez that was a boring race!! As a few others mentioned, a few or more moves would have at least made it a little more entertaining.

Trainers instructions were to take a sit.

How long until the trainer sacks himself from giving instructions

Yeah, I don't think we'll see him driven that way again anytime soon.
