Bendigo Cup
It is a good Gp2 field
You can pretty much get $5 the field
Gp1 winner Our Uncle Sam is the fav
I think Another Masterpiece is the only other Gp1 winner in the field
oops Wolf Stride too as the Metro Region Championship was somehow given Gp1 (30-70 class)

I don't think much of HRV's lack of promotion of Bendigo (maybe they figure Bendigo does it themselves)
Finally go a story today but it is about the 1150m Mercury rubbish

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Bettor Than Ever article - I must admit that I saw it but did not read it and thought it was just going to be about the BC being his next target. I did not realize back on Jan 4, when it was written, that Saturday was the Cup - my bad (I did not realize until I saw the fields yesterday)
and many thanks for pointing out that LAP IT UP is not just a banner but a link (my bad again but I have not been 100% the last couple of days)

The Cobram Cup
A very nice field for the next level down (Gp3) on Sunday
The heat will be a worry (Charlton on Monday is starting early)

Wolf Stride confirmed tonight that he will be a topliner/Grand Circuit horse

How was this for great coverage by the Bendigo Advertiser

Western Sonador cost himself the Cobram Cup by missing the start

(The replay is still not up and I had trouble logging on to Sky so the TAB ap is the way to go)

Only 7 nominations received for Saturday nights $60,000 Shepparton Cup with 2 of those having other noms on the same program. Noms extended until 7.30 tomorrow. Some of the races are struggling for fields. Hope a few trainers jump on their computers tonight.

Yes Anne, LA must be scaring them off
