Tofane is the new Santa Ana Lane,

a double-figure ATM.

100% agree.

Are you still clinging to SAL? Was an absolute moneymuncher at the end of its career.

I never backed it in my life.

The rail looks the place to be at Caulfield today.

Backing Mo'unga, saving Tofane.

Delphi is a cat. Rail hugging leader bias track and couldn’t run a drum. Meow!

Poor ride by Kah on Mo Spook. Need to be in the first few today and she loses her position midfield and finds herself last on the turn. Rattled home but the winner has bolted. She won’t put that ride in her highlight reel.

Tofane only ok.

Heavy 10?

 

[Redford]

Collette to swim to victory. Jacquinot.

 

[Redford]

What a horse.

 

[jb03]

Yep. too good.

 

[eZyT]

The Champ too good.

one of the most timid rides I can recall seeing in a G1 by Tim Clarke.

wouldnt have won,

but someone like Bowman would have barged her out on the turn,

at least to have a crack.

 

[Ridley]

Collette could not possibly have conditions more in her favour yet she puts in a career worse performance.

The winner is a great horse but not sure about the superlatives on that win. Two 100-1 pops ran the placings and the second horse nearly ran her down. Plus Duais at 100-1 just missed a place.

Will be happy to back Think It Over on a dry track against any of those; up to a mile anyway.

I reckon the run was there ezy. She just didn’t quicken. Poor run.

But yeah Clark ain’t much chop.

You are mad. VE has won 11 Group 1's. And TIO couldn run past one of the 100-1 pops you are talking about.

Yep that ride was pitiful.

As punters we just want our horses to be given a chance, not ridden hands and heels down the entire straight.

Heavy 10 mate. Didn’t think TIO was any chance today. VE is a champ but just didn’t think that was such an impressive win in conditions to suit. With Collette running a shocker thought VE would have won a lot easier than that.

I thought the run was there Mops. She might have to muscle out a bit but just didn’t quicken like she usually does. Disappointing run.

You are probably right Rids, but the lack of vigour from Clark was quite bewildering to me.

oh well, where’s the next?!
