@pike_in Older horses, it’s fine, can slide up and down and keep them racing.
Younger horses trying to progress it’s terrible.
Got to the point of trying to put a band aid on an amputation

Victory will move him equal with Colt Thirty One at 44 AP wins

[Adam Hamilton @AdamHSport]

The great Leap To Fane’s return to @TheCreekAlbion fittingly adds to a huge Queensland Day racing fix. Great move scheduling his race for two hours after the last at Eagle Farm and just 10mins down the road. Can’t wait to do the double.

What will the 6 weeks until Protostar unveil.
Likely at this stage,
Jacwill Kid
Smack Bang Bart
Cardigan Jem

Who else is stepping forward?
Plenty on the fringes. Is it a ‘lighter’ crop of 2YO’s this year?

[Adam Hamilton @AdamHSport]

Boom 2yo and @BathurstClub Gold Crown winner Jacwill Kid has been sold to a group including Mick Boots and joining @GrimsonJason
$500k Gp1 Protostar @TheCreekAlbion the target.

@me_dc Late in first half Freddy Lussick did it for every tackle in the set of this game against Wahs

[Darren Clayton @Dashman01]

@CraigNorenbergs Same position here, my 15YO faces it regularly in BNE club rugby.
No matter the code it is a problem.

@mickradley @Hutchysays Mandingo also started fav ahead of him in the Bathurst Gold Crown Final.
I have been lucky enough to have 1 Gold Crown finalist. What a year we picked to qualify…. A credible 8th
