OVERVIEW: Champion mentor Andy Gath hasn’t been backward in coming forward with his passion for former Kiwi commodity WHISKEY CAVALIER (7) since that monstrous pacer laned on our shores. Until last weekend, those predictions were pure conjecture but Andrew Patrick Gath doesn’t promote then unless they’re worth and this bloke certainly seems worthy. The thing is – and the money would suggest - that Jason Grimson’s latest acquisition BETTERZIPIT (5) may also be worthy. Based on the hype one of the two should prevail with last start Cobram Cup king CURLY JAMES (11) who is better known for on-pace heroics, a relatively clear third pick, The other potential open-classers engaged here are HELLUVA (8) who emanates plenty of charisma but gets an awkward draw and SILENT MAJOR (12) who – pardon the pun – silently caught the eye with his second-up effort in the Hamilton Cup.

OVERVIEW: Champion mentor Andy Gath hasn’t been backward in coming forward with his passion for former Kiwi commodity WHISKEY CAVALIER (7) since that monstrous pacer laned on our shores. Until last weekend, those predictions were pure conjecture but Andrew Patrick Gath doesn’t promote then unless they’re worth and this bloke certainly seems worthy. The thing is – and the money would suggest - that Jason Grimson’s latest acquisition BETTERZIPIT (5) may also be worthy. Based on the hype one of the two should prevail with last start Cobram Cup king CURLY JAMES (11) who is better known for on-pace heroics, a relatively clear third pick, The other potential open-classers engaged here are HELLUVA (8) who emanates plenty of charisma but gets an awkward draw and SILENT MAJOR (12) who – pardon the pun – silently caught the eye with his second-up effort in the Hamilton Cup.
