Fame Game jock hauled over the coals for not riding the race out, in fact, connections told him to race in that manner.

By finishing 6th, avoids any weight penalty in the Melbourne Cup. Interesting as it's last 200m showed it had plenty left to give.

My Caufield Cup tip, Hokko Brave, very disappointing run 3 wide most of the way and couldn't go, having said that, first start in the land and might be looking for something longer.

Watching the jockey vision from Damian Lane and Fame Game came tearing past. Was scintillating in that straight.

I was on Royal Descent which travelled three wide without cover and finished second last. Not sure why he didn't raise a whimper. Steward's report said he was medically fine. Lost for words, other than disappointing.

I was on I Love It in the last. Got super excited in the straight and motored late for fourth. Going to keep following it. Will win at good odds...eventually. Haha

My horse trialled today. Not great news.
Came 5th. 12-15 lengths away. Winner won by 10 Lengths in 46.3 for 800m. I was the fastest heat of the morning by 1.5secs.
M.Payne said she felt a little bit shinney. I'll find out more tomorrow on how she pulled up.
Feeling a little bit flat, probably won't bother going through another lay off.
Been in training now for a combined total of 25 weeks for 1 poxy trial.

Winner went 46.3 for the 800m. Which is fast. 1- 1.5 secs quicker then any other trial.
We came in at a about 47.9. Didn't look like it she gave it much.
Annoying part is the shin soreness. Hope it isn't.

apart from the winner, nothing was full tilt, really liked the look of the second horse was just in a canter

I am deadset staggered at the outcry & criticism directed towards Greg Miles re his Caufield Cup call.
I watched the race at home and knew something was wrong down the home straight - something more than a broadcaster getting a horse wrong, or forgetting a name. Sure enough, it has been revealed that Miles suffered from a health situation due to some medication he had taken earlier. It caused him to lose his breath and for his heart to race at a potentially dangerous rate. But that didn't stop the gutless society on Facebook/Twitter sinking the boots in and calling for his retirement. Even some media identities (who you'd think would know better) questioned and ridiculed the call.
Never mind the fact he actually got the dead-heat correct earlier in the meet, never mind the fact he was mentally tough enough and showed all his class by nailing the final race of the day following the Cup. Never mind the fact it was his THIRTY FIFTH cup call. He has been one our greatest race callers for decades now, the fact he felt it necessary to publicly apologise for his error is a sad reflection on society. Those who felt the need to bag him should maybe look in their own back yard....
Greg Miles didn't deserve this.

This is over the Magnolian Khan thing? I just thought it was a slip of the tongue when trying to describe the positions of 20 horses in a race. Haha

Me neither Spargo. I find it amazing they can recall horses on a whim like they do. Miles had 10 races to call and got one horse wrong a few times. Big deal. The horse still won. I was there and I knew it was the horse I backed.

The only disappointment I have is that he felt the need to apologise!

Needs to be given a break espescially when there are two other horses called magnapal and magicool in the race. The only thing id say is the way these things get beaten up into a huge deal is a couple of idiots having a go, and about a million others like you and me saying I cant believe it is such a big deal.
