Can you back that imperatriz to win on Saturday into that sprit on stakes day? I tried on 365 and it just gave me x
Unless thee is a specific market for it, probably not? Dependent events and all of that...
You can get $2.17 on Lads. What’s the point.

Should be a fine form ref going fwd as 8 of them cross the line within a length...
Moonee Valley Cup doesn’t look much better. Staying ranks are very ordinary.

Adelaide horse popping over for it. Was an all the way winner a couple of weeks ago at Morphettville over 1800.
Looks to be a chance in this.
Can get overs on Chicago Storm in the Gawler Cup tomorrow on Sportsbet 
It’s not fixed and the odds are TT+
Yeah, I'm just sweating on r7 tomorrow. Delcredere comes out of maiden grade.
Think the Gawler track may suit.
Edit: He's come up fav, $3.40 on TAB, $5 Sportsbet

We stopped investing in breeding local stayers years ago.
Our staying races exist now to serve the raiders who are not good enough to win the best races overseas.
I don’t have a problem with it personally as it creates interest from a betting perspective.
If you are a racing purist, it’s not ideal.

even the Northern Hemisphere is looking at the sprinter/miler option for its stallions with any credentialled stayer off to Hunt Stud duties

How is it not ideal to have the best horses we can get running in the race regardless of where they are from? The more internationals the better it is for the purist.
As I said, personally I don’t mind.
But our group 1 staying races contain very few elite horses. The local breeding industry ain’t changing - so the prevalence of buying third/fourth tier international horses to compete in these races will continue.
Doesn’t mean the standard will improve - this year being an example.
Aroochacha.

And how would lowering the standard need to win the race IMPROVE the breed in that area.
I’m not making the argument it will.
