In the very first "Get Out Stakes" of 2016 I'm hoping that Heavy Set is not a description for the girl on my arm come race 9 but infact the name of the final winner. Having come back from career threatening surgery the 8 year old Shamardal gelding is racing extremely well and I think he can turn the tables on Express Dancer, Fuld's Bet, Marchand and Mr Motown who all beat him home last start. 1100m is much more to his liking than 1000m and in a very even race I think he can steal the chocolates in the last at odds. Still not completely sold on Express Dancer and even though he won last start he never went around a single horse and was cutting down a rapidly tiring leader who was sporting the dreaded bar plates. Undeniably talented but not one I'd be jumping into at the likely short odds. Expecting a hot top end speed with the likely pace setters in Onadowntowntrain and Fuld's Bet both drawn towards the outside. Add in Hurricane Hound who can show early dash as well as Calabria Joe I'm quietly confident a swooper will win. So naturally alongside Heavy Set and Express Dancer goes Volkoff whose first-up victory was spectacular coming from well off the pace to win convincingly. Max Almighty will win one early in his Adam Durrant career and must be included. Thinking the winner will come from one of those 4 and will play them as my final leg of my second 2016 quaddie because everyone knows I'll be having a nibble at Bunbury on January 1st. Happy, healthy and safe new year to all.
