in the opener today..done a treat since her debut..wide barrier a worry..the fav..flying heritage..will most likely lead from the good draw..4..5..7..9..& 10..all have good trial form..

..would have been stiff not to get the race!..off to a good start..schonegg

easy with retropspect I know but when you look "again" race 5, Lords Ransom top trainer + The Fish, and 2&1/2 lengths behind Snipers Bullet 2 starts back, I must start to study the form more!

Lords Ransom should win the cup easily based on that run.

Will be deserved favorite, good powerful finish today.

Party, yes, Durrant is a top trainer and a big-race trainer who has made his mark, especially during the carnival.(Jim Taylor been a little quiet).
But that Scenic Shot was not the Melbourne/Brisbane version. It's a classier horse than the winner. Easy to say now but it surely is a tired horse and needs a big open paddock tomorrow. Brown had to ride it hard out of the barrier to keep its place, then got shuffled back. No zip in its finish.

One to follow is another Durrant runner Golden Heart, from the last race. Was first up and had to work hard 3/4 wide, and expect it to hit back very soon.

I thought Lords Ransom, Right Fong, Gondorff, Largo Lad, Impressive Jeuney, and Almohad are the only chances for the cup.

Let's post a quaddie on NYE so we all can get on it for Perth Cup day.

Ok, hope we snag a monster divi

well, OK, but we;d better not forget the ppm selection OR the 3rd letter "R", har har !

Scenic Shot has gone for a spell. Lords Ransom who won the Cox Stakes in convincing fashion has incurred a 1kg penalty (Perth Cup) for the win.

I heard he'll get a 3kg penalty, as Scenic Shot was at 57kgs, but with him out, weights will be raised.
