If my ears were on., through all the mumbling and smiling, the way forward comes down to rationalisation (close and centralise), don’t have assets sitting idle between race meetings, and don’t share any funding with the dogs.
Well what can you say Chase a Dream killed them he is definitely back . Great run by Merlin and also Mo'unga , Ohoka Connor terrible . If Mo'unga draws well next start I will be on because lead , trail he can win
Judging by the double acceptors there will be a few scratchings in OZ tomorrow.
Our mare UNTIL VALHALLA runs at Doomben R5. Surprised at that because her last run was awful. Stable is happy with her though and stepping up to 1600m on a wet track is seen as positive. Drops in grade from BM 78 to 70 and gets an apprentice allowance. $7.00 currently so fingers crossed.
Maher stable has some excellent chances headlined by Pride of Jenni, Duke de Sessa, Berkshire Breeze/Shadow and Qatars Choice at Morphettville. Amazake and Nugget also expected to run well.
Trentham - interested to see how CROUPIER goes against the Marsh pair. Astute stable and owners so $13 is tempting.
Rosehill
R2 QUIETLY ARROGANT - backs up from slipper last week where I expected better. Up in distance and JMac on $10.
R10 RHAPSODY CHIC - a fave from last prep when she won 4 in a row. Trialled well and loves the wet. $15 looks overs.
Flemington
Will be interesting to see how Alabama Lass handles the straight. On ratings she should win but no certainty there.
R2 STRICTLY BUSINESS - nice trial recently and $23 looks good value at her first start.
R6 PISANELLO - lovely fresh up run in Sydney and good here so $3.40 about right.
Dear me, my little, doubtful, ray of sunshine surely 12000 is better than a whack in the belly with a wet fish (and there's the Aussie in me coming out. Sorry children)

Unbeaten colt Private Harry is the first horse locked in for The Everest after breeding and racing juggernaut Yulong Investments purchased a 50 per cent share in the group 1 winner on Friday.
The deal was sealed in the aftermath of the star sprinter's slashing victory in the Group 1 Galaxy (1100m) at Rosehill Gardens last Saturday which extended his unbeaten winning stretch to five.
Although details of the sale remain confidential, it is understood the half-share of Private Harry has been secured for more than $15m.
Further incentives are factored into the deal if the star galloper goes on to win further group 1 races.
The deal also includes Private Harry being given Yulong's slot for the $20m The Everest at Royal Randwick in October – making him the first sprinter locked in for the world's richest turf race.
