Analysis Our list as critiqued by a horse race pundit doing the form.... (AKA Horse Racing chat)

[Howard Moon]

Football people are very sentimental! keep players on too long when its obvious they need to go.. list clogging..
Need to be more like horse racing pundits!! when actual money is on the line they dont pull punches;

Ive ripped out the super form, got the pen out, glasses down... transistor radio on 923... time to do the form...

[Halftimehero]

Wouldn't mind seeing a tongue tie applied to Goddard, has been getting his tongue over the bit in recent weeks.

fletcher=fields of omar

Bit of take-over target thrown in was a cheap get after all, and has played international rules

Jobe Watson 200 starts
Former Cox plate winner beautify bred but showing signs of wear – put out to pasture

[Halftimehero]

Kavanagh = Anudjawun

Eye catching runs with back me next start written all over him but then fails to back it up

 

[eth-dog]

Jake Melksham and Ben Howlett need to be retired and start breeding soon.

But if we do that we may not get first go at their Colts if they turn out to be guns.
