R8. Stone Motherless After The Races Handicap - 1 January 1970
|
Undefeated in WA
Pounamu is 2 from 2 in WA after arriving in the state as a 13 start maiden from NSW. However, for those who looked a little deeper, his form-lines as a 3 year old were top class contesting Group and Listed races behind the likes of Sweynesse, Volkstock'n'barrel, Hampton Court and Australia's newest supermare, Winx. 2 starts at Ascot for 2 wins, 2 starts for Pat Carbery for 2 wins and 2 starts at 1400m for 2 wins. It's very hard to see where the challengers come from and he looks set to rise through the grades rapidly. Many, like myself, will have him earmarked as the best bet on the card. William Pike could easily be going into the final race without a winner with his only rides under double figures being Socially Unique in a tough race and noted non-winner Uncle George. Pike teams up with Riki Tiki Tavi here and I think he is probably the value play in the race. Fast finishing efforts behind Fuld's Bet and It's It over 1200 were backed up last start by a luckless fifth to Pounamu. Meets that galloper 2kg better at the weights and was finishing off very nicely late. PTT Quaddie Club: 5,7,8,9 / 1,2,3,4,5,6,8 / 1,3,6 / 6,9 - $100 = 60%

My issue is not how he rode the horse out as it came home like a train, rather how long it took him to make the run. I agree. Waited far too long to make his run. Why was it behind horses for so long ?
