Already have the Winx thread but probably need a new one for her going for her third.

Trialled and Noms released today.

underwhelming internationals to say the least.

 

[FallingLiefs]

hmm Esperance not nominated, probably going for the Everest!

I like egg tart as well, but think Waller will take it to the Caulfield Cup

International wise its really just Highland Reel and Japans Neorealism

 

[bigpapagman]

Watched a few Neorealism replays last night. Not really that impressed.

A matured Highland Reel possibly the bigger danger.

Though neither really have the "I'll decide to win now" factor that Winx carries. If she's in the race at the school* she wins and that's simply it.

*barrier.

considering it gets back in its races you could be on to something

Caulfield Guineas is same day as Everest. Probably why prizemoney has cranked up to $2mil, plus its a stallion making race

 

[TBellicious]

Yes Egg Tart looks to be headed Caulfield Cup way. Equal fave at $17!

 

[plays tall 1]

Almandin will probably go to the Cox Plate. Seems the way Lloyd does it with his Cup winners.

Not the worst $100 bet if Winx goes amiss.

Not sure we've seen Almandin's best yet.

Will be lucky to run a place over 2000m at WFA - pass.

Interesting that Neorealism isn't coming, neither is Highland Reel.

The best of the international raiders is now 3x G1 placed (Deauville). Not really sure if that's going to be quite good enough.

Geez - Aiden is really scraping the bottom of the barrel this year.

And that's the best of the 5.
