Strike One did, Dane Julia did, Elimbari made up lengths on Solar Charged in the exact same spot. He just has no heart.

I stand corrected about the inside, Think you're being overly harsh though i mean what happen first up this prep? no heart there? & The rest of the field are 2Ls back how much "heart" do they have?

They have less ability that Rangi and so were expected to finish down the track.

Look at those margins (all in the past 6 months)... he looms up and just offers nothing... I think WFA isn't his issue... he just needs a heart transplant!

Rangi just couldn't beat the superior WFA horse who has done it all before. Rangi will have his time i wouldn't jump off this one. Theseo great win, great heart, got great odds on friday. LOVE IT

So the Expressway was luck? Maybe he looms up and doesn't off because he should be leading or put further back? or maybe the lesser group races like the Expressway or Crystal Mile are his convincing winning level, i dunno just think its harsh to say he has no ticker, i mean i'd take a consistent group horse anyday especially one with a 50% or 1in2 career win record.

Look at the form out of the Crystal Mile. Rangi only need 3 legs to win that race. I was his biggest fan, but enough is enough. It's just too painful.

Gee I dunno what to make of Rangi's run. Was given a 12/10 ride by Timmy Clark, had the drop on Gai's horses, maybe did he go on the worse part of the track? Thats the only reason I can give to Rangi for losing that race. Top win by Theseo, great training effort by Gai. I have been knocking her for a month or two on here about how awful her horses are travelling but after today I have changed my mind. She has a stranglehold on the sydney autumn Carnival

I'm a fan of RDOO, but the ride on Theseo is full of merit. As most of Gai's horses, once again dictated the pace very well. IMO was the telling tale.

SPOT ON !! Nash is clearly the best jockey next to H BOWMAN / The rest.....

Couldn't agree more, M&P69. Rangi will win one soon. Great ride - excellent efforts by the first two home. 3rd & 4th had the best sectionals in the race.

Rangi should definitely have won yesterday.......had Theseo's measure and stopped trying once he got his head in front....don't think it's a "ticker" problem.......he just thought he'd done his job. Needs to be ridden with cover and then let loose about the 200m on a drier track.........top class horse and getting better all the time......

Ps: nothing wrong with either ride.......both excellent jockeys.....imo

Exactly right. Both excellent rides, but Nash judged the pace beautifully, and was duly rewarded. In saying that, they weren't loafing.

Gartman tips the Trifecta 1,5,2.

Gee thought Danleigh could easily have won this, Hugh Bowman a rare bad ride so much so that the stewards sat down and had a chat with him. Don't think the 1600 is any issue and I'll be backing him for the Donny, Waller is a very good trainer and Danleigh is a very good horse.
Theseo's effort outstanding, just so tough!

MOLANSKI pace/tempo !!! that's why no other reason

The best part about THESEO'S win was that he is only second up against fitter performed race horses.......RANGI had an extra couple under his belt and was rock hard and i thought should have gone straight past him.......i would be backing THESEO in everything he competes in this campaign!

danleigh was a moral beaten, no other horse mad any ground in the race, and he came from stone last made many lengths up, shocker of a ride by bowman. doncaster is his to loose that for sure.

For starters DANLEIGH was third to last for most of the race and PRIMA NOVA made considerably ground as well. DANLEIGH is the perfect type of horse to lay because he gets back and wins only when there is a fast tempo(like two starts ago) so for mine the only way he can win the doncaster is if it's run in break neck speed. Rangirangdoo was narrowly beaten in a Group 1 for the second time but on his figures he will be winning one very soon.

He'd better Plugga..............he owes me plenty!!!........
