Quezette also looks a ripper by 3yo filly standards

Godolphin says Hartnell won't see her until maybe the CP if he goes there.

If not the Cox Plate what would be Hartnells main goal. I guess the Mackinnon now Emirates over 2000m flemington carries enough prizemoney to warrant it as a target

would accumulate 4 g1's and 2.3mil before he has to choose a mixture of CC, CP and Mackinnon. maybe does all 3. just get him firing and pick up all the low hanging fruit.

it generally is and then 5 weeks later when all the improvers show themselves this race starts being forgotten.

Be weighted out of CC surely.

But yes lots of options if prepared to accept they cannot beat Winx

Which they cannot.

It'd be a 57-58kg job for him for a CC wouldn't it for Hartnell? Preferment carried 57kg last year with a similar 115 odd rating.

 

[Lockyer24]

I know most are looking at Esperance tomorrow at $1.01 but Tahi at $2 might be a better bet on one with a future. Double?

Emirates on the final day should be obvious Hartnell target.

yeah can't see hartnell getting more than 58. Preferment had won twice as many g1's at that point compared to hartnell atm. +6kg on most horses in australia shouldn't be too much of a problem. probably has +2.5kg on most major threats.

Plus was well held in the last two Melbourne Cups carrying 55.5 and 56 respectively.

Are you saying he can't win a CC with 58?

Won't be a walk in the park. Through the Turnbull run for example he'd have struggled to beat a 52.5kg rated Jameka last year and he has looked nowhere near that horse since.

I cbf looking back but was just working on the assumption that horses generally get around the same weight in both and there is no way in hell you could give him 58 in a Melbourne Cup.

well thats cool because we're talking about the caulfield cup. and ****ing lol on the Jameka reference. please tell me how that 3.25L margin disappears he beat her easing up.

Best horse in the world has just got rolled at Deuville at odd of 1/3. second last in a field of 6

Not even the 2nd best horse in the world

Esperance won like a superstar albeit at Echuca. I note its second line now in the Caulfield Guineas

The other two best horses in the world go around this weekend - Arrogate and Winx.

There would be a 3kg turn around for a start

The French derby winner was rolled too. I don't think the French look that good this year - Enable would towel the both of them.

I'm on it at $12 for the Guineas, don't usually bet this far out but think after today we won't get that.

Interested in R2 No 3 Groundbreak up in Sydney today at $8 small look at those odds may get better.

If it continues to have renewals like this year will be a Group 1 in no time

Looked pretty comfortable even after Oliver nearly killed him and most of the field 300m in

 

[TBellicious]

The beef between Ollie and Craig today is brilliant.

I'm not a fan of Willo but he almost got flattened by Ollie, who is lucky to only get 14 meetings in my humble.
