patriot – I did have Just An Artist down in my paddock notebook as ‘looked well’ for that Perth race…, but not the sort of race I’d get involved in for betting purposes.
Regarding the Crokes Cross novice hurdle, my thought was that it probably wasn’t much of a race with 6 in contention approaching hte last. That said the winner did show a good attitude after the last and I would imagine Stuart Coltherd will find a race for the second Changemyluck, possibly a mares novice.
