Jameka at $6 is a much better bet for the Melbourne Cup anyway.

Connections of Hartnell might be kicking themselves that they didn't go for the Caulfield Cup not the Cox Plate though. They were never a hope of beating Winx
 
lost all rhythm cornering. might be the valley, might be he went from travelling to chasing and trying hard. wrong horses back there too he's better than that. wouldn't have won though.

Winx has beaten him on average 6 lengths per start going into today so given how welll she went he probably ran to his mark. Maybe a length or too below.
 
Kudos to the crowd that went today. Was absolutely disgusting conditions, although flemington has copped a few of those days over the recent years.
And Randwick always cops it for their Championships.

Can't believe people actually bet against her- seriously she was always winning....
 
At least we have flemington as the venue next week rather than that shocker of a track. Winx amazing win made me forget about the prior racing.

I like astern for the coolmore but jeez there's 3 or 4 quality horses in that race. Very much looking forward to that
 
I know I was trumpeting it per race but I completely agree. Anyone who thought any horse apart from Winx was 'value' or a good 'bet' needs to take a serious look at their punting.

There are races to look outside the obvious but this wasn't one of them. She'd flogged the second fave pointlessly 3 times and no horse had got near here in Australia for a year.

She was the best of good things.

The non believers should be forced to wear a thorn of crowns and walk a lap of the valley screaming 'I am not worthy'

Note - grace in victory a noble endeavour
 
i was looking at her form a few months ago, interesting fact that only 4 horses had pulled ground off her in the last 200m ever.

First Seal, multiple times
Gust of Wind
slightly sweet
Peggy Jean

3 of those occured in a single race where she was first up.

Please tell me you at minimum had a decent day on the punt. Had the Valley pretty much nailed :thumbsu:. Well done.
 
I'm not as negative about Hartnell's run as most. I wanted him to challenge Winx for the spectacle but nothing indicated he actually could. But he did rally late to pull away from Yankee Rose a little and I won't rule him out of the MC.

Is pulling away from Yankee Rose a measure of stamina though?
