Well beaten by several mollydee. Good research too on the Biffenator.

He's probably right about them not racing one another. Sepoy will have to step up to face the BC. Oakleigh Plate form suggests there's better opposition anyway after having the sit of the race.

"The sit " is not out in front mate .Au contraire

In the running it had the sit behind the horse in front, in second. Last time I looked that wasn't out in front. It may have spent some petrol tickets getting to that position early, as instructed maybe, but it was certainly swamped over the final 200m in a 1100m race.

And yes, they still haven't met, but that's beside the point. Sepoy has 10 wins from 12 starts now.

I hesitate to advise but Briefed at Sandown today at 3.58, should run well as track is softer for him.

Couldn't agree more . He was pushed very hard out of the barrier to be in the front mix . Can't expect a young horse carrying 58 kg to turn it on at both ends of the race

Apologies guys, I arrived in Brisbane just as the rain hit up there and returned to Melbourne as the storms hit last night, I think it's following me again.

Did you go to Wang last night?

[Biffen 12,947]

How did Briefed go the other day, Redleg?

Better than the jockey. Damien Oliver got off and told the trainer it was one of his poorer rides and the horse was never given a chance. Finally got him out when last with 100m to go and he flew home for 6th. Hope he can win next time.

Shows how dangerous it is when Oliver had a bad fall last night. Hopefully he is ok.

Noble Game at 3.58 at Bendigo sunday and Man of Awe monday 1.35 Warnambool.

Anyone watch the joke that passed for a game of AFL at Launceston yesterday?

No but I noticed you know who was not among the best players

Good to see he was ok, it looked a terrible fall.

[Redleg 41,553]

Went to Etihad and enjoyed our first win there in years. Liked the look of Davis. Big strong boy who goes hard and can play. Think Joel Mac has been terrible and his turnovers unbelievable. Watts struggling a bit, but will come good. Loved the aggression from our players. We are a new side.

Apparently he was discharged from hospital about 1am. After a few hours sleep he did some usual fitness stuff, felt ok and thought he saw no reason why he couldn't ride . Lucky guy .

Just so . Gerard Whateley said on Offsiders this morning " You need astounding courage and coconuts to be a jockey like that"

I sometimes get scared when I am in a paddock with a few yearlings that get a bit playful. Imagine riding a racehorse in a tight field at full gallop, just frightening.

[Redleg 41,553]

There have been some strange selections in the NAB cup so far with some guys getting very little ground time, who I would have thought need it and others a lot. Howe was subbed off in 2nd quarter after palying well. Tom Mc got hardly any time at all. Gysberts got 1 quarter. Tynan got hardly any time.

It might be something to do with loads but I can't work it out.

How GOOD is it to be able to talk about footy again!

Don't worry too much about the jocks-they are like cats .

I worry more about my cash-Olly being about the only exception.
