What hasn't changed on the NZ racing calendar in the last 20 years, so 28 years is a shoe in, that the Derby will be held on some other date to fit in with the Sydney Autumn carnival.  Either that, or they will put it back to Boxing Day.

The other option is, that racing in NZ by then has capitulated

by then, racing in Sydney may have capitulated..perhaps ahead of the capitulation of NZ racing ... not that we will care...

Andrew Campbell has three runners . Easy. Twenty bucks please Hesi. 

There is a sacrificial runner amongst them to set up a good tempo, allowing the stayer amongst the other two to do his bit, hopefully. 

Cant let on who, sorry. 

As all 3 horses are owned by basically the same ownership group, it doesn't really matter which of the 3 win, so team tactics(within the rules of racing) will be very much in the mind of those concerned......including the stipes.

Anyway, it won't really matter, all 3 will come back to scale with wind burn marks from Dragon Leap

Go with what Globe thinks. Why not.

My heart says Vladivostock. Only for the reason that he is an entire and by Tavistock. To keep the bloodline going it would be a continuation of what Andy calls " A Fairytale" if Vladi won.

Tough field and some real talent, but 2400 may find some of them out.

Only if Globe reveals all BEFORE the race. It's not easy for us mortals to bet after.

All I can say is that Peloton will be the lamb. My son in law wont rate either of the other two, but I know where his heart will be.

You guys back who you feel is the best choise and leave me out of the equation. At least you have your starter for ten.:classic_smile:

Some similar to curious - a few a lot different.

I've already had a small go at Red Rufus. Of course I am open to criticism if either Dragon Leap or Two Illicit dominate. That's racing and my assessment wouldn't change.

I think the lamb is pretty good value.
