As impressive as he was ( and he was ) he's a risk next week and that's wherever he draws.
That's got to take a little bit out of him surely, something will either grab him next week or get away from him...just don't know who ???
Offthebit..reckon he's a betfair lay next week!
If he happens to absorb it all again and win - it's huge.
I think you will find i have given him a cook before but i appreciate your input.

Just on drives and better put this in the fine print section haha and it made no difference to the result, the winner was a class above them but Lewis & Suvaljko - you know better boys! Both basically gone after 400 metres.
The horse Lewis drove even though a mile back after dropping out, was actually coming again on the line and ran ok.
Even though he ran second favourite Galactic Star was completely ignored in betting, never stopped drifting from 3/1 to 11/2 - run was outstanding to finish second.
A good draw from 1,2 or 3 next week and almost the one to beat. He's a better horse than ever.
FAN girling. Bwahahha.
Appreciate your input
1. Ross Olivieri for finally getting I'm Full Of Excuses back to winning form.
2. Anthony Butt - it really was like the Little Big Horn out there - he had Indians attacking him left, right and centre. Carried the cavalry flag and a heady front running drive not to get scalped.
3. Gilgamesh - anybody who can get I'm Batman into a place ( he must have been better than 10/1 a drum with some corporates ) that's an enormous effort.

Race 7 at Melton - you only need to watch the last 400 metres - but thats the type of track GP needs to be somehow - watching GP last night was like watching Narrogin Tuesday night
Just an observation Chariots and talking thru my kick.
Sorry for daring to comment on the inner sanctum of the GP harness club.

In actual % terms it would be lucky to be 5%, that's been a bit of a shock.
Dare say, even more surprisingly a little animosity between the codes.
I like 'em 50% each.

In the words of Kevin Newman - " Harness Racing is about 5000 times more exciting than the gallops " - i agree totally
I first went to a live Trots meeting when i was about 11 - and i thought - how exciting is this - absolutely fantastic
There was this kid up the road - who was hooked more than me - we were allowed to play cricket in his Grandmothers back yard - never forget one evening i came in to bowl - just a tennis ball - he was batting - and he put up his hand up for me stop - and i said why - he pulled out his little radio - and he said ive got to listen to this Trots Race - lol
What would you call it? I’m also a Ryan fan but you take it next level I’d be embarrassed if I was Ryan

Hahaha yeah my bad got away with it for a good 24 hours before it was pointed out though
Haha I thought you were saying he was subhuman so we had to give him a break for the bad drive!
For the record I think Ryan drives some very good races but also some pretty poor ones. Needs to find that consistently good level.
Americanbootscoota had this at one stage, and came out next start to win.

Yeah that’s possibly the worst reasoning I’ve ever heard
