Message: I know it's a long way out but Isanami looks the true staying material for the VRC Oaks... anyone have any suggestions on who else may tackle this race and be a main contender?
At this stage I have a strong feeling that McHardle can bring up a rare double and Japanese sire, Tayasu Tsuyoshi can be at the forefront of this amazing feat.
Message: wait for it to produce something, its been unlucky yes, but it could be one of those gunna horses perfect example is Russian charm in sydney... different class yes i know all of that... but wait for it to produce before you write off the others

Message: I just remember the way she sprinted past them in Adelaide at an unbelievable rate...I do agree with you however.
I'll wait but i dont think ill be waiting for long she looks like she could be the one to beat this saturday.
There is nothing of her.. she looks quite ordinary in the yard but i'm sticking to my opinion that she can run and is very classy. I think she'll pay her way very nicely.

Message: see how she wins horses like pendragon, rewayaa, doubting, pinezero etc. have all won very classily either being wide the whole way or sticking there nose into a gap that doesnt look to be there... she will have some very strong competition in her spring races. Who is she running against this saturday cant say ive had a look yet.
Message: Isanami is a real show this weekend I agree, she tends to get right back and fly home, she was unlucky against danerich that she couldn't get through. The only issue with horses that get themseleves so far back they need all the luck to win from that far back. She obviously has the ability. As for the Oaks, very hard to say how she will go, the breeding suggests she will run well, there will be some stiff competition in the Oaks this year. She is more suited this weekend.
Pinezero is very solid, hasn't been over 1400 metres which is a concern. Rewaaya is a freak and will be a real special this spring so you cannot compare Isanami and her.

Message: Pine has a good length on these horses. One to watch is Whipasnapa. With Paul Harvey on the saddle you never know. Callow Jumped ship but Childs is in great form especially riding on pacers. He knows the horse and Flemington will suit.
Message: Mate if she pulls this off the whole stable will go nuts :P Can't wait until the 1000 and also another stable chance for the Oaks and Blue Diamond. :D I will take days off school to watch my girls :P
