I'm glad Barry has brought some balance to this discussion and I'm sure that the decent souls who have commented in a negative manner will have the good grace to either apologise or acknowledge the track played extremely well if it does what its has done in the first two races for the rest of the program.
If it turns to custard later in the day then fair play to you and I will withdraw to a hollow tree with some sour nuts!!.
At no stage did they look like getting close to her - I don't think I've seen horse that far clear in a group One rounding the home bend - not even Kotare Chief!!
Semi final day and tough track at Riccarton has the ability to throw the SHOW into KAOS!
Good luck Sasha and fellow Turbo's Ray and Zig but hoping it's a curtain call for the leaders today and the SHOW plays on ๐
