...BTW, OMG, a top effort!!!

Not sure how / why you put Abrolhos Pearl on top Chiquita. Only performance before today 10 lens last in a trial! But well done in any case!

As for the comments made by westman, wake up & smell the coffee! Not a 'normal' forum. Just monitor the ongoing comings & goings of certain forumites, that don't post but just sit there in comatose state. LOL

Top shelf stuff Chiquita ;)

I'm amazed how a lot of our 'guests' seem to be viewing very old posts whenever I have a peek [users currently online] a lot of them just tipping threads 12 months & older :confused:

Given Vision scr...Time Perfect ran 3rd...Run Bon Run won R3...Jay Four E_x won R6...Tropical Swell & Century Metal unplaced..

Damien Oliver must think Azzuri Sky has a good chance next Wed. Coming over for the ride!

Ditto!

I like these - all were beaten favourites at their last outing & look strong ew chances today..,,

R2 H14 Dr Bella
R4 H11 Solway Lass
R5 H14 Smooth Racer
R6 H7 Innovation H11 Star Laser
R7 H4 Cape North H14 Spider Talks
R8 H8 Canny Jack

Great to see Cape North back in the winners circle!

From what I can gather the Kerlsey stable has been copping a bit of critism locally of late. Stable back on track & Fred in final stages of recovery after that serious track accident.

Is Cape North heading east for the Australian Cup? Was going, then wasn't. After yesterdays win perhaps back on the agenda.

Dr Bella (12/1) ran on nicely for 3rd, Solway Lass unplaced beaten 2.75lens, Smooth Racer unplaced beaten 3.75lens, Innovation 4th, Star Laser unplaced beaten 4lens, Cape North 1st (10/1), Spider Talks 4th, Canny Jack 2nd (7/2)

Don't know about Cape North but Belle Bizarre is heading to Sydney & Keyton Grace may still head east depending on next start performance in WA.

Thanks Chiquita.
