R5. Mt Hallowell Stud Handicap - 1 January 1970
|
Welcome West
West Africa joins the WA stables of Chris Gangemi as another of his Eastern Imports, originally a $350 000 Inglis purchase, he begun his career with Mark Kavanagh recording a 9 length debut victory at Kilmore. Last start was on Geelong Synthetic when victorious as a $3 favourite and has had 67 days between runs. Immediate support at the $6 mark suggests he will be primed for a first-up WA assault. Both Windswept and Rock Magic quickly hit their straps for Gangemi so expecting a bold showing from the newcomer. Dawn Approach returns and has the speed to hold out West Africa and lead, boasts minor placings to Chinetti and Benito as well as victories over some very handy types, namely Black Heart Bart, WATC Derby winner Respondent and talented gelding Kheleva. Certainly a genuine danger. August Knight won first-up and second-up at Ascot last preparation and does possess an electric finish when saved for a late burst. Cracking little sprint.

Hey don't get me wrong.Never see anything like Lonhro again, he was unreal at 'his game'. Was there for his Ryder win running low 32 last 6 on a track that wasn't rock hard. Had to be seen to be believed. Cox Plate and other 'grand finals', where pace was inv...

That would explain why all the lonhros I've had were champion track workers, but hopeless on race day! Fits the description perfectly =))

Elite Belle has the Lonhro toolkit (relative to the class of horse each one raced respectively, of course :)), unbelievable kick off a slow pace, 400m ping so much faster than others that if they go slow and within grasp of leaders, pick em...

different class of horse, so you'd expect Barakey to go qucker. I disagree he'd have been beaten by more. I actually think he might have won had he been allowed to run along and make them chase hard. I don't disagree with this theory. Dance H...
