BALLARAT R2 #3 NO FUSS

X4 STAKE WIN $2

I will get the negatives out of the way first, hence why not going big, already raced. No idea with NZ form but on paper not much form has come out of race. Gets more weight here. Now the positives, was a strange ride on debut, jock was way off the lead and then in straight decided to go to the inside of runners instead of the outside and had to change course again, wouldn’t of won anyway I don’t think but did make good ground so would think distance of 1400m would suit and being a NZ horse thats a tick for mine over distance too. Been gelded. Jump-out over 1000m looked to travel better than Half Yours who has subs won at Geelong and I thought No Fuss was better after the line. J Allen sticks after riding in the jump-out. Most opposition are exposed. Spirit of Radio was okay. Our Girl Britney is in the black book but had enough chances now. Waiting for Time thought didn’t look like wanted more distance and would need the tongue tie to make a big difference

WODONGA R4 #3 DETROIT CITY

X4.75 STAKE WIN $3

X4 STAKE WIN TOTE

Didn’t show much to me early days but they can improve and has been gelded and was in a different stable I’m pretty sure. Caught eye firstly when was decent late with some older gallopers and then recent jump-out had blinkers on and was up on speed and was untouched, looked to be cruising and recent winner Fabrice was asked for an effort, will split stake because maybe they will come for the raced horses
