Murphy's Law

Selections

.

.

In a case of Murphy's Law whatever could have gone wrong, did go wrong for Universal Law first-up. On a horrendously wet day he was slow away tracking about 3 lengths last on his own for the majority of the race and then when tacking on rounding the home corner was critically held up and when eventually finding room was gobbling the leaders up. Steps straight up to a mile here and with luck from barrier 1 should go close to winning. Showy Chloe was forced to do all the chasing last start behind tare away leader Corporate Larrikin and was found wanting late. Was the target of incredibly strong market support and the fact she hasn't been tipped out for a spell suggests she's still ticking along well enough to win this. 52kg is a luxury for a filly of her quality and she'll make her presence felt again. Street Bandit doesn't win out of turn but his efforts in much higher quality races than this have been encouraging for the fans of this WA cult hero.

agree they went too hard upfront, just look at the second last and last horse before the bend and where they finished, Culverin & KOK flew home into the placings, that wouldn't have been possible if the pace upfront wasn't so hot

As somebody mentioned earlier KOK fair dinkum dawdled out of the barriers.The new whip rules may not suit a horse like him. He needs stoking up! Former great jockey Rod Kemp would be a perfect fit to ride.
