Its A Dundeel running again @ 5.15 and then All Too Hard @ 7.15 are the two standouts.....
I suppose everyone one here has heard of A2H and with him Royal Ascot bound its a race to certainly take note of especially vs More Joyous and Epaulette but I'd appreciate comments from the Non Aussies about Its A Dundeel :) I've been smitten with him since they threw the blinkers on....oozes class this won....ooozes it....in spades. Decent enough test vs Relible Man and Manighar. Hopefully he can win like he's been doing and you'll see what I mean....probably put the mockers on him now :o
IT'S A DUNDEL was even more impressive than BLACK CAVIAR was - when winning the Australian Derby at Randwick last week.
You had to think- 'Well, if he won so easily - just what did he beat'?
Well he beat Phillipi - who had beaten Gai Waterhouse's Hippopus in the Tulloch - with Hippopus 2 lengths behind, again, in the Derby.
The other day - Hippopus went on to easily win the Victoria St Leger at Flemington
Previously ....
IT'S A DUNDEEL beat Sacred Falls by 6 lengths -
Sacred Falls had beaten Gai Waterhouse's winning machine, Pierro ( 111111123-1112 )
IT'S A DUNDEEL certainly looks the REAL Deal !

Well done Reliable Man, who did what I expected him to do against the others, but IADD ran a shocker.
He did the same 6 months ago in our spring, looked something special and started short priced favourite in the VRC Derby and he got too far back and couldn't make up the ground.
He's a bit of a Jeckle and Hyde character. Don't know it he just trained off or he just needs races run to suit.

Now lets see how All Too Hard goes... this is a good test for him. More Joyous is a very good mare, 127 rated horse on Timeform. And she almost always runs well in Sydney. In Contrast, All Too Hard's Sydney form isn't great, one win from 5 starts. (although it was mostly as a two year old before he really hit his stride)
If All Too Hard can beat her a trip to Ascot to run in the Queen Anne may be next.
Lets hope Black Caviar's little bro can do it.

>Indeed - I agree - the Dam's record is more relative - as she can only have one foal per year.
The way she's going, you could probably mate her with a Clydesdale and produce a city winner LOL
