@@lewdubspersonalbest9070 5th place good for $230k, you'd wonder if they would come back without that. Hope they bring 2 different horses next. How far they get beat without all the woke scr?
Absurde. The interview with the jockey post race was interesting. He believes, this horse can travel with the best of them, he has a devastating 250 meter kick in him, that for me is the biggest play. Last year he was shown far too much daylight. KM is a master of Melbourne. If he tracks the right horse(s) buried away in 8th , 9th for the final kick at the 300 meter pole, I believe he will run away from them. The 2nd in this video is a proper horse to mark by, make no mistake. The form is good. The Ebor win is good. He led them from the point of straightening up last year, much too early, this year with a better ride, in let's face it a weaker race, Absurde will be right there come the winning post imo. Good Luck.
Yeah, I get two images of Absurde. One, where he seems to only have a short but sharp sprint (displayed in last year's Cup & at Chester), but then his win in the Ebor showed incredible ticker to sustain when being challenged. Even Frankie thought he was going to be beaten that day but Absurde fought on.
@johnnyboy6608 yeah I am haha. I guess maybe because its a long race and a small field so it might be boring for most of the race compared to our races over here where we have lots of pretty big fields.
Will look like the winner on Tuesday at some stage. Could stay on for the jumping season this time rather then having to freight back to Europe 👍
Did look possible at the top of the straight but had a chequered path.

Thanks for posting, but its hard not to fall asleep listening to this caller lol, he has no excitement in 3/4 of the race.
Are you Australian by any chance? No hate or anything just im british and I love this style of commentating, bland boring and straight to the point😂

@ yeah that’s fair it would be hard to get excited about a small field like this
Still night and better than the american commentators lol
