Well after today's effort I think he deserves his own post.
The theory is you can only win, but of course you can make your opposition look very average - that he did.
He wasn't missed by too many on his debut and followed up today. Gave them a flogging - by 7 lengths. Wasn't flash away, 4L off them at the turn, he just skipped away in the straight.
Interestingly he's not nommed in the Aust Guineas. Surely he'll be nommed for Sydney features.

Don't think he would have won today after seeing Snowdens Lohnro bolt in.
 Think those who had backed him/ were going to back him must be glad in hindsight that he was scr.

I'll have to watch this race that Lonny won but it would be hard for him to have been more impressive than Linton has been at both starts.

Agree, I think it should be $4 for the 3 favourites...
I think if you wait til the day we may get around that just on tote odds...

PS Lloyd looks to have another handy Galileo - if you didn't see it race today at Ballarat, Baron in Race 4 won very smartly.

He wouldnt have won that race on Wednesday the way the race was run.
He would have got a mile back from the outside gate.

Words such as wouldn't, couldn't etc etc are meaningless if they aren't in it.

I am on his bandwagon big time, but he would have found it very hard to win the other day, despite it being a Wednesday meet. I maintain that even after today, again I state I am driving his bandwagon.
Got $4 for him on fixed and had a nice collect.

Just had a quick look at his pedigree.
It doesn't seem real flash on face value.
Anyone else had a look?
