He's stepping out again - barrier 9 over the 2520 metres and won't be going back at the start, with nobody wanting to hold him out and destroy their own chances the breeze maybe up for grabs in no time, likely leader and fancy Lagoon Stride good luck to him winning with Vincenzo applying the pressure.
If the speed is injected into the race a fair way out then the one to beat might be Highroller Joe was happy with his run in the Bridgetown Cup, got some time for Joe and think there's three main hopes - Vincenzo, Joe and the Nathan Turvey drive Beltane could be the blowout.
Give Lagoon Stride some hope too mainly with Shannon Suvajlko driving, but the horse is out of form and will have Mark Reed applying the pressure a fair way out - SS might be better off taking a sit. He's drawn barrier one, great but it does equal anywhere from 1 point to 10 points unders!!
The number of favoured horses at GP that get beaten from barrier one - mind boggling and the price of they put them up at 8-|

Clarendon Hustler 11/8 - good run after early pressure but that was a short price. 2nd.
Rock'nroll Baby 7/4 fixed :-O was better on tote - unplaced.
Patickthepiranha 9/10 - he lacked bite - unplaced.
Mr. Bushido $1.70 tote :-O a bit better with the bookies - unplaced.
Mick Grantham got the next gate one Marcotti up at 4/5.
However overall another typical night of barrier one unders at GP - if you cast back through the results week after week it's the same overall picture. Of course some win but the odds of them sheeeeeeesh.
Also harking back to the Narrogin Cup and the Pacing Cup/Fremantle Cup runners in that event how did battling outer country horse in Miss Stonebrige gain a start against the best ?
They gave her barrier one - right that was going to make a lot of difference, I mean seriously.
She tried her best but after a soft run was going backwards shortly after the bell, a legitimate 2000/1 chance running against the elite - another strange one in my book.
Secret Delight the other Albany horse started from barrier two - Tabtouch bet $81 and just $7.25 a place about a horse that should have been 800/1 and 200/1 a place.
Miss Stonebrige and Secret Delight running in a Group 3 race against Pacing Cup and Fremantle Cup runners...cmmmmmon.
(CONCESSIONS HWOE LT $44,500)
ALSO ELIGIBLE - HWOE LT $70,000 With L5$ LT $2,250.
Preference to HWOE $25,000+ (Level 9)
(Concessions for Novice Driver). RBD.

El Jacko and Always Arjay would still have eaten them up though.
Those two outer country horse's were dropping back in other runners laps shortly after the bell - if that's a good image for pacing, good luck to them!

Entitled to run 100% yes.
Should they have run in a Group 3 ? No not in my opinion.
Standing start conditions and getting a 70 metre head start then yes, heck silly me might have even thrown them in for third and fourth - competitive racing = competitive betting.
An M0 has always been able to start in FFA just like a C2 has always been able to start in a country cup, old and new system doesn’t mean trainers should nominate for them
$8 about a good horse in form with SS driving - well done fixed odds boys - that's competiveness!
Arma orourke interesting drive last start see what happens.
Beltane is getting out to a big price @$15.
Vincenzo to go forward and lead might be the go, if was Lagoon Stride would be handing up, ( who wants Vincenzo bothering you the whole race ) will be interesting to see what Suvaljko does providing he holds up initially, if there's a bit happening won't be surprised if Highroller Joe or Beltane swamp the lot of them.
If Vincenzo works his way to the front then you'd think all over.
He's as tough as old boots - Vincenzo that is.
Thought the run of Beltane fantastic - black book him, breeze outside of Vincenzo and be "gone" then box back to run a clear third - big effort.
Lagoon Stride - just Suvaljko being sensible - you'd expect no different.
Highroller Joe - looked the possible winner with the electrifying sprint - yet missed the place comfortably. Can't knock his sprint - saved up for one run with speed on - don't give up on him. Wouldn't totally rely on him now either though.
The winner was typical. The horse keen to see again - Beltane!

There's a win somewhere for Highroller Joe - that sprint was very quick - short lived though.
That was a big go on Vincenzo too, seemed to be heavily supported - last Friday night ran at 70/1 haha, as said before be prepared for a ride - this horse is going to be all sorts of odds!
One night he will get rolled at $1.50 but don't be surprised if one evening wins at 10/1 or better.
The odds of this horse you'll find will be all over the shop - it has been so far.
Talking of top drives Ryan Warwick's drive on Mortician in the trotters race at Pinjarra yesterday - as good as you'd see.

Think she can beat one or two home - will be interesting!
Good girl ran 5th courtesy of a smart sensible drive - seen her run a couple of reasonable races at Pinjarra - little goer she is.
Would like fixed odds to bring in ( as other corporates do ) Favourite versus the Field - would I be taking on some of those false favourites or what!! Or odds on faves that reckon are way too short.
Shadow Maker was $1.60 to win tonight ( barrier one - funny that ) so that equals about $2.20 not to win - yes please!

Give favourite backers a bit of flak from time to time.
Barrier 1 in FFA class.
Beltane today $3.70 into $2.15,missed a place
Don't think any other horse could have worked as solidly and still battle away up the straight to run 4th.
He was a heavily backed favourite though, just didn't get the breaks.
Trapped wide, then Lady Luca kicked up and Mon Lillies wanted to retain the front.
Costly for fave backers but think a win is still nigh.
