    Is trainer Jake Casey the same bloke who rode Vega Magic in the Winterbottom Stakes? I'm assuming so judging by the silks of a lot of his runners. Any reason he gave up riding?

    he was pretty tall, so I'm guessing weight.

    Chad Schofield looks like a virtual giant and he's riding at lighter weights than Zac in HK...just luck of the draw I guess. I think Chad started at 38kg with a lot of lead in the saddle though

    If they ever teach Chin Strap to settle or get a jockey who will listen they may win a few on end...late replacement rider obviously not ideal but a beaten fav two in a row now

    They had cheap flights a few months back, $199 one way. Getting there Saturday morning. Still overall not the cheapest 4 nights away for the family with accom, car hire etc but it is the highest season

    Kal in October will be a similar story 150-200+ per night for accomodation that’s usually $100 or so... and flights from Perth should be no more than $250 one way (can guarantee that’ll double by next month or sooner)
