Brian Bennett - used to call at Mildura - and he use call that horse - and hed say like - oh heres Bonzzzzzatttrosss - it was hilarious - Greg Radley and the late Nick Robin use to impersonate him
I can remember Brian Bennet many many years ago at a Mildura Cup meeting ( its just like today - they have heats one night - and then the final ) - and Brian Gath drove something in the heat - and the spray Bennett gave him after the race - i can remember it nearly word for word - " You expect a hell of alot better from a leading Metropolitan driver - than the rubbish he just served up their " . It was great to listen to
Same era - at Terang - they had old Bill Lardy - i think he was a local grazier from the area - and Terang Trots was the only meeting he would call . One night their - after the last race - as the legislation allowed - they would give a summary of all the races - the SP prices of the winners and placed horses and beaten favourites
Anyhow he is about half way through his summary - when he said - excuse me - but i am being interrupted by a group of young louts under my commentary tower - all you heard next - was this allmighty roar - like Dom Sheed had just kicked the winner in the GF
Boy they were entertaining and funny days back then

As for Hy Fyfe he'd be running the same pace for another 3 laps - steady and slowly. Could not have had enough on him for a place in running. The three faves just too good for him.
Meetings run 3 and 4 days ago, and not a part of the form in this era of technology, not good enough.
Comment for Watzingwithsierra - "going well without winning" ...won Saturday night.
It's 2019 not 1985.

Won with a leg in the air at Northam. Think Bet365 had her at $7 yesterday. Had talent and speed in Victoria but could be as weak as water too, they've got her going exceptional well.
The smokey for a place freo dockers 25/1 - he's a battler, will need to find the pegs from barrier 7, but the good news only 8 in it - and only one horse off the back line - if he could manage to get three back the pegs ( big if ), he was ok at Northam Saturday night without much luck albeit was a weakish field - will pick up a weaker race than tonight but have invested a few readies on Bee Seventeen a place.
Keen to see what he does though for another shot at Northam or elsewhere.
Hoping 2 horse fresh, up to his old tricks and misses the start or he's a bit underdone first up.
Either way Aldo has options at the start hopefully not held up in a six horse field
Wasn't too bad, wasn't good either!
Just the two odds on faves tonight from gates 1 and 2.
Soho Interceptor - $0.0
Lincs Tiger - $0.0
I'm going to Headquarters Friday night - am going to put my own stand up and lay every odds on favourite from gates 1 or 2.
Last Sunday at Bunbury - The War Nurse gate 1 - $1.40 nope. The Watch Maker gate 1 - $1.40 no again.
No wonder bookmakers eat them for breakfast.

Was never ever going to play a part - have decided to lay barrier 1 and 2 odds on faves at GP and anywhere in the world!

El jacko was being driven along at the 400. And went straight as a gun barrel up the straight. Not sure what your implying.
Settle big fella the conversation was about sprint lanes and why horses couldn't / didn't get a run.
Was not having a go at your driver just commenting on observations.
As I said the best drive won the race.

IMO Darren Kerr is actually a very good driver and trainer just never been afforded the opportunities as "Jnr" has.
Does my head in that these drivers are considered inferior when the horses they are driving are 90 percent of the time not in the same class, particularly high priced imports.
Recall a very good driver who disappeared for a few years for reasons I do not know, came back with a strong stable and now considered the best driver in WA. Think he drove "jnrs pants off" on Monday.
Pretty sure he would acknowledge your only as good as the horse you are driving.

The silence is deafening.
PS where is getthechange have we been duped ?.
Has he served his purpose ?..
Mind you given the results lately I cannot argue with him.
Credit where credit is due.

She is horrendous I find myself turning the sound off so I can enjoy the race.
