“He's been just a terrific horse to have in the stable. He's had only one problem and that has been a history of getting stone bruises in his front feet. There is no obvious reason for it.”
“He has never won beyond 2100m and there are some good Melbourne horses nominated for the Hobart Cup so I think he has enough with 58kg for his first go in the reverse direction.”
“He just didn't handle the track at Hobart but I knew after he worked on Monday morning he was at his peak for this race. In fact, I almost broke my rules and backed him.”
