Poor Boomo

Still exceeded my expectations

 

[iluvparis]

He honestly looked half a chance at the 300!

In the Dean Yendall Wandjina looked half a chance scale...then yes

 

[iluvparis]

Ran much better than many on here said he would iluvparis

Was hard to tell given how far out of the screen he was but avoiding bottom 5 and getting within 10 of the winner can only be described as a massive achievement for this BM 90 horse.

Idaho actually ran huge to finish 5th - about 2 lengths closer than he got to Enable in the Arc

But not by as much as Enable ran away from him in the Arc

There should be an Everest race over 2400 meters on the Grass with those 3, Winx and Enable, chuck in any dirt cat USA nag in and how awesome would that race be. Make it happen someone.

Where would you hold it? Don't think there is a decent 2400m track in Australia - Sandown?

Randwick is ok
Caulfield is too tight.

Many on here ignoring #boomo playing up at the gates, ran it's race before the start. Gods against him, that and lack of ability cost him a memorable top 10 finish
