The Strip is done on good tracks. He may win on soft tracks still (plenty of opportunities in Sydney) but his best is past him on good tracks.

Barrier 1 is the death barrier down the straight.
MAde a motza off the horse, but was a lay today.

Love the balls and conviction Chimpley.
But always beware the horse sitting camped off the pace, with cover, doing no work, then off fast peeling sectionals to not win.
Then are always overbet next start.
Maybe this horse will buck that trend, but history is littered with those that cost punters many $$.
Good luck!!
He did plenty of work from the 800m onward in a 1000m race Leysy. History is not littered with horses running those sectionals. This was not a 1400m or mile race with some horse scorching the turf out front and then folding so backmarkers could run over the top.
4 consecutive sub 11 second 200m sectionals. You don’t see that. Have a look at this horse’s record since he came to Oz. Won his first two; 4 length win over 1400m then a 1 length win over 1300m in a listed race where he came from nowhere to win. Then beaten 1.35 lengths in the Toorak; unlike the vast majority of Savabeels he doesn’t get a mile. Then he won the Golden Eagle against a crack field. Showed a blistering turn of foot and hung on over 1500m. Then today’s enormous effort.
1200-1400m is his sweet spot. He was almost brilliant enough to win over 1000m today. Moody is a smart trainer and will have him prepped for the rich races in these distances.
But ignore at your peril. I’ll get a better price if everyone thinks the same. Already taken the $4.50 for the Newmarket. In Secret $3.50? Pffffftt. She fell in against a bunch of B grade fillies last week. He will give her wind burn.
I'm generally an on the nose punter, but don't mind the place on an all-up or multi.
No. Straight outs. A couple of bonus bet returns though. I’ll get there….
Really liked Barber in the BD until I saw it’s draw during the week.
I just watch 2yo racing, I don't bet on them. Barber was impressive winning last start though.
Thank f Hennessy Lad finished 4th. I’d have lost my sheet with another placing.
Steinem in the next.
Told you I’d get there Tiges. Felt good seeing it coming in from $7 to $5.30 just before the jump. Bingo.
