Me too, had him with FF and GJ in last leg of PA, needles to say PA moer toe now :X

The scratchings really played havoc with my selections - and while Daylami Star is on my 'horses to follow' list, I did not really think it could feature from that draw - definitely one to follow imo - ran wide most of the way and still won

Stiffs with the JP, Blouperd - sometimes it pays off to consider my ramblings :

I myself missed the P6 (and PA) in the 5th - went short and did not have Kapellmeister :X or the Jolly one :X:X
