De Nederlanden's run today was very good, he was travelling like a winner to the turn and while there was a run for him in the straight if he had been a tough experienced horse, I feel he was reluctant to take it as the 2 leaders that he was trying to come around were wandering out and intimidating him, he copped a bit of a buffering too, sure the experience will help him grow up, don't drop off him

Think you should be very wary when assessing todays form, there was a lane between about 4 and 6 horses off the fence and I reckon only one rider knew it, watch "The Gun" Brenton Avdulla he rode most of his mounts to take advantage of it
anything that pulled wide was history, they looked a chance to about the 200/300 and their runs ended before they really started, Horses like Hoylonny and Aeronautical might improve considerably next time, there were many more as well, can't make them BB'ers on the runs but be aware they may show vast improvement in the future

I already had Wishbone Jack blacbooked but put him in again. I got $10 on friday morning and he started at $4-20
He was in the 4th at the Farm and never saw daylight....2nd time in a row

Could be D-Day for Star of Giselle after a disappointing effort last time out

4Th February 2012
come said the boy
if it doesn't hang all the way down the straight wins easily

Can dump Star of Giselle - the winner is the one to follow

A couple from Moonee Valley on Friday night.

The one I backed in the last Spurring Success had absolutely no room in the last 200m and after nearly being put through the rail by the end she was eased down to finish near to last. It will look an average fun in the form guide but she wasn't even tested - I suggest people have a look at the repay.

The other was the lightly raced Stratcombe who came from near last to finish second in the 955m race. The winner was right up on the pace and at a bigger track he will be much better suited. Looks to have a bit of talent.

  THE FIREHOUSE KEMBLA R3 No.7 (1400m)
  DE NEDERLANDEN KEMBLA R4 No.2 (1400m)

Big win at Townsville today from a Testa Rossa first starter - Fench Lesson, will win in town.
