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.

I am dying to hear how he had the race run to suit as well? You mean that muddling speed that suited the frontrunners???  |

Would love to see where i said i was an expert. I also never said you know nothing about horses... Linton ran a huge race given the speed wasn't on, Denman folded like a deck of cards when the pressure went on. Linton ran home in very good sectionals and would have had to Bernborough to reel them in...given the tempo. |

Well, I think he will make a very nice horse, even though he getting beat has cost me a heap--got the last 3 legs of the quaddie going for 50%

Good to see you concentrate on nit picking and totally miss my point  doesn't surprise me. I was going on memory and have only seen the race once. Sorry Gin, but this one coming from you of all people is a classic. |

I will make 4 observations from the radio call as I have not seen the race yet.
1 Linten is outstanding.
2 Denman will win the All Aged, Doomben 10,000 and Stradbrike treble.

I'll look out for your pointless posts on the Ten Bandannas thread  Pointless is proclaiming a dog the next shootout winner after one start but then claiming the dog needs a big track, then 600m, onto 700m  you'll have him wanting the 959m soon  |

Oh yes Gin we're all just like that. Remember the circular room with no corners or whatever it was? |

I don't see any intelligent talk from you, only shit stirring? The shootout might have been a bit optimistic but this dog will be a champion and if its over 700m.... so be it. Anyone can sit behind a screen and bitch and moan and put others down Gin, but until you actually start having an opinion that didn't fall out your ass.. enjoy the banter andy |

Come to think of it, could'nt be more true. However the shit stirring is more like what I call sniping.  |
