    Love how Jason feels Swayzee can go round , sit outside them & win.
    That is confidence in his horse.

    Hi Pat, I think Jason is right but it won't be without a fight especially if Minstrel can get to the front without an effort. I think Junior will take off with MS knowing he will get a trail when Swayzee comes around. But while the war is going on the only horse who is capable of swooping from back in the field is Catch A Wave and that's why I'm picking him to win. All hypothetical of course.

    I just about agree with you Rod . Swayzee is tough but all horses can get run down after a tough run .
    It should be a great race .
    How good would it have been if Leap was in the field .

    Catch A Wave might have a crack for the lead Rod

    If you have not seen the Nullarbor and want to watch it WITHOUT knowing the result

    Here is a link to the race BEFORE - scroll down carefully - just enough to see the Replay button for R10

    And without telling the result the horse's run that ran 4th was enormous. 3rd horse outstanding as well. The winner & 2nd did not have to do any work , change the positions around & 1st runs nowhere. IMO.

    I plan to discuss it in detail in about an hour as most truly interested fans who might have liked to watch the race live but could not be bothered staying up after 11.30 would know the result by then

    You could have posted that Rod

    I think we all believe that as sort after be the 1x1, rarely has it been given such a glorious ride as it was last night, with the result that the 1x2 quinellaed the race.

    Swayzee is one tough horse but as PP has pointed out - he rarely wins big races that he has not led in. I half think that he had not been tightened in the last 100m he may have come again for 3rd

    Hart got it wrong - if it was the right tactic or executed correctly he definitely places

    I know it was a fast race and I prefer Catch A Wave over shorter distances but I thought he was a tad disappointing despite landing in an unenviable position

    It turns out that Junior getting to the death before Swayzee, secured the race

    I actually thought Cameron would have run 3rd for sure if he was not tightened over the last , what 50?

    Anyway let's hope the draw in the cup favours both Swayzee & CAW . And IF they get the cushy trips , see you later , bye MS .
    Minstrel is a very good horse.

    Do you think that 27.8 qtr was wrong Kev?
