    If he won the Royal Whip impressively Moonee Valley would be falling over themselves to get him to the race. He’d have to carry a 4yos weight of 57 kgs though.

    Did Ravens Pass settle all that well ? He looked to me early on that he could have settled a little closer without using any petrol, i’ll watch it again but he looked to me like he was inclined to slightly over race ?

    No doubt that Henry has superior excelleration, he put a gap on Ravens at the 300m that won him the race.

    I think this contest would be even more interesting now.

    Unfortunately it seems they want to step Henry up in trip is that right ?

    If Ravens Pass is asked a little earlier for an effort he’ll give Henrythenavigator a run for his money, he has been asked to do way to much way to late at his last 2 starts.

    Just watching the King George on Youtube and seeing Duke Of Marmalade lay in allover those on his inside. In the good old days his jockey would have attempted to keep his mount in a straight line, those days are clearly gone.

    Those people who remember the Royal Gait disqualification from the 88 Gold Cup, he won by about 10 lengths, what was your opinion on that one ?

    John Size is the man to save Godolphin.

    They should have him amongst their nomination at least for the Melbourne Cup. If not this year then certainly next.

    I doubt they’d be concerned.

    So are people 100% happy with pacemakers ?

    Are they not an unfair advantage to the wealthy racehorse owners and large stables ?

    It would be nice to see a race up there between Yeats – Septimus – Mahler – Honululu – Coastal Path – Patkai over 3600m.

    What are the chances of them all coming together in a race ?
